1973 Jeep CJ-6 / 4x4

The Jeep CJ-6 was introduced for 1956, and was in production for just under 20 years. It was essentially identical to the classic CJ-5, just stretched by a massive 20 inches. This longer 101” wheelbase added substantial cargo space to the vehicle and was our answer to the endless requests for a roomier vehicle.

In 1965, the CJ-6 benefited from the same “Dauntless” V6 engine as the CJ-5, which meant a tremendous 155 horsepower (practically double that of the base engine) was now on tap for those who opted for it. This quest for power took another step forward in 1973, when parent company AMC shoved a 304-cubic-inch V8 (or the optional 360-cubic-inch) under the hoods of all CJ models. AMC also improved the rest of the vehicle by equipped heavier axles, bigger brakes and a wider track.

The CJ-6 was loved by the people in need of the extra space and comfortable ride suspension. Only 50,172 units over the course of its two-decade life. This model is entering the collector’s model and due the low production numbers will be a sought after truck.

This particular model rolled off the assembly line as a fully loaded Jeep with all the options available at the time. Power steering, power brakes, the 360 V-8 motor were the only factory upgrades you could have gotten and this one has them all.

I have owned this Jeep for years now and have babied it until today. It has all the extra options and goodies anyone could want like air lockers for the snow or mud.

This Jeep rides and handles like a dream! It has a very smooth (non-bouncy suspension) that makes it very stable and a joy to drive unlike the CJ5’s and 7’s.

It has the tough T-18 transmission with granny gear that will not break!

It has a top of the line clean sound system you can find out there with a 6 speaker and tweeter and dual amps and bass box in rear setup (it’s really sweet).

It comes with a lightweight vintage camping trailer so that you can haul all your gear when you want to go up in high country.

It would truly take me a very long time to itemize the entire laundry list of great new add on’s that has gone into this ride. (trust me you wont be disappointed, come check it out for yourself)

I have no choice but to sell this sweet ride because I have leased my warehouse and my collector cars have to go. Here is your chance for a real deal at my loss.

Over $50k spent. I have all the receipts and documentation on everything that has happened to this Jeep.

New Fuel Injection system by Howell

Runs and drives excellent and does not need anything!

All new motor parts (very clean under the hood)

Rebuilt transfer case and tranny

All gauges are new and everything is fully functional on this Jeep!

Trailer wiring and hitch setup

Brand new soft top

Custom Bikini top

Brand new exhaust system including new manifolds

Under passenger seat storage bin

Original steering wheel

Interior dome light (nice and bright at night)

Dual Chrome fire extinguishers mounted on each side of the Jeep

Finally, here is your opportunity to own a true classic muscle Jeep for a fraction of the time, pain, and money that I have invested.

I am not desperate or needing money being the reason why I am crazy enough to sell this Jeep for none other reason except a space concern at the time.

I am willing to stand behind and guarantee this Jeep to be rust free and in top mechanical condition. This is my own personal vehicle and it does kill me that I must part ways with it. My true loss – your gain!

This is a NO RESERVE auction. Therefore, I kindly ask that we do not waste each others precious time and ask that you only bid with the confidence that you have the cash and are serious buy my Jeep.

I require an immediate $1,000 deposit via pay-pal from the highest bidder at the end of the auction. I have also offered the Jeep for sale locally and reserve to right to cancel this auction at any time as I please should anyone wish to come with cash in hand and buy it. You are free to call me at (714) 928-3868 to discuss anything you need regarding this Jeep. Happy bidding and good luck!

Chrysler to accelerate production of 2013 Ram and V6 engines

Fri, 16 Nov 2012

Chrysler is adding a third shift at its Warren Truck plant to meet demand for the new 2013 Ram pickup. And with tight supplies of its Pentastar V6, the company is also boosting output at its Mack Engine plant.
The expansions will add 1,250 jobs and are part of a $238 million investment by Chrysler in the Detroit area. Warren's third shift will begin work sometime in the spring, a Chrysler rep told Automotive News. Mack's increased Pentastar production a could include both 3.6 and 3.2-liter engines.
The company says it also plans to invest $40 million in its Trenton Engine plant to allow for production of a 3.2-liter V6 as well as the Tigershark inline-four for the upcoming Jeep Liberty replacement.

Jeep Wrangler Willys Wheeler wants mountains, not a stage

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

We've said it before and we'll say it again - while we usually grow tired of the endless barrage of special edition vehicles, that isn't the case with the Jeep Wrangler. Every unique model we encounter seems cooler than the one before it, and this Willys Wheeler Edition is no exception.
The Willys Wheeler package is sort of a throwback to early Jeep CJ models, and wears "Willys" stickers on the hood. There's also a gloss black grille, rock rails to protect the side sills, and unique 17-inch black wheels wrapped in meaty BF Goodrich KM Mud Terrain tires. For proper off-road prowess, this special edition uses a Dana 44 rear axle with a limited-slip differential and a 3.73 final drive ratio.
Look for the Willys edition to hit dealerships early next year, starting at $25,795 for the two-door version and $29,595 for the four-door. Feel free to read all about it in the press release below.

Europe gets Jeep Wrangler Polar limited edition

Wed, 04 Sep 2013

Jeep will be bringing an all-new, limited-edition model to the European market called the Wrangler Polar. Based on the Wrangler Sahara and set to make its debut at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show, the Wrangler Polar sports new Hyrdro Blue paint, gloss black 18-inch wheels, a body-color hardtop, and the regular mix of Mopar styling accessories. Billet Silver Metallic and Bright White are available for those that don't dig the glossy blue, while a two-door variant will be available in addition to the four-door pictured above.
The Polar's interior features similar tweaks; Pearl White contrast stitching can be found on both the seats and steering wheel, while ceramic White bezels and other accents give a nice contrasting look to the cabin.
Underhood sits an engine that should make American Wrangler enthusiasts weep - a 2.8-liter, four-cylinder turbodiesel. With 200 horsepower and 339 pound-feet of torque channeled through a five-speed automatic transmission, the Wrangler Polar should handle itself just fine on normal roads. British buyers will also be able to select the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6. For rougher stuff, Dana axles can be found front and rear (Dana 30 up front and Dana 44 in back), while the Command-Trac four-wheel-drive system and its two-speed transfer case should be enough for when the roads disappear.
