Phoenix, Arizona, United States
|
For sale is this super awesome Black on Black 1974 CJ5 Renegade. This is a RARE Black paint with Black stripe Renegade. I have never seen a black with black stripe CJ. The stripes look white in pictures because they are faded. I have tried to find pics of a black with black stripe renegade and cannot find any. I would love to see an original AMC pic of one. If you have one please send to me. This Also has owner Made chrome front bumper and rear bumperettes. Had Chrome mirrors, wheels and headers back in the day..... Man she was a looker! and POWERFULL! This original CJ has a factory v8 304 with a 3 speed and heavy duty Renegade springs. The previous owner parked it in 1983 right after he had a new clutch put in and trans rebuilt. The clutch linkage fell out and that is where he left it for 31 years!!! I pulled it right from that spot. I put all new clutch linkage, radiator, alternator, water pump, starter, battery, battery cables, shackles, bushings, rancho shocks, fender flares, steering wheel, master cylinder for brakes, rebuilt brakes as needed, rebuilt the 4BBL carter carb. It also has a rare Edelbrock SP2-P intake. New sidepipes, seats, seat slider (drivers) and water temp and oil pressure gauge. I installed a new gas tank and all fuel lines and new fuel pump. I also found the correct 5 slot wheels and put 32x11.50x15 BFG All Terrains on it. There is no spare tire carrier, I have been looking for the correct one. (If you are reading this and have the correct one you would like to sell, please contact me. It has to have the kickout for the upper reinforcement channel at top of back panel). There is also a older but very good shape Kayline soft top included in the deal and the original and VERY rare dash pad. This jeep has all the correct emblems, the original Jeep key, and extra custom made under seat gas tank. This tank will need to be hooked back up, there is a front/rear gas tank valve on driver floor that is frozen. The original gas tank skid plate is also included, but is rusted. She has all original lenses, lights, uncut dash and aftermarket old school roll cage. The body has original paint and stripes. There is NO rust through on floors, Only small pitting. There is bubbling on passenger side under door (look at pic) and next to taillights (look at pic). This jeep is as original unrestored as I could keep it and still make it drivable. The previous owner said he had "some high performance motor work done to it" he could not remember or tell me what..... but SHE MOVES!!! very strong and always brings a grin to your face. The sound of the side pipes and the hurst handle, sooooo cool. If you love CJ's and into Patina and love to set off car alarms when you drive by..... THIS IS YOUR CJ! Obviously I can't say enough about this CJ. Only in AZ do you get that perfect Patina with out being rusted out. Drives like a 74 CJ should. Stops like it has 4 wheel drum brakes, and has more power than a short wheelbase CJ should. I have invested quite a bit of time and money into bringing her back to life. This is NOT a Jeep for a 16 year old driver. I have had more than a few Dads want to buy my jeeps for their 16 year old kids. This IS NOT ONE OF THEM. IF you have driven a early CJ you know what I mean. I restore Jeep for a living and have sold all over the US and overseas. This Jeep has a Clean and clear Arizona "A" title. It is even the small OLD 1978 title that is still in the second owners name (it is open and ready for your name) Shipping is up to the buyer. Please quote from 85027. I will deliver the Jeep to any automotive carrier in the Phoenix valley at no charge to the buyer. I require a 250.00 Non refundable deposit with in 24hrs of the end of auction. I will accept Pay-Pal for this part only. The remainder of the amount due is to be paid by Cashiers Check, Bank Check or (the easiest way) Wire transfer. I keep a account open at Wells Fargo just for this purpose. It is painless and easy. As soon as the money clears I will Fed Ex the title to you and we can set up delivery of your CJ. It is also available for pickup if you desire. This is a AMAZING early gen Renegade. Perfect for the collector or jeep lover. I really hate to sell her but.....that's what I do. I REALLY wish I could keep this one for me, but I cannot, so she goes to the next Jeep nut. If you have any questions feel free to contact me 602.763.3505 DREW please view my web site. www.thejeepfarm.com I should have some updated pics on my site soon. (my web guy is on vacation) there is some pics of the "as found" condition, and Dennis the gentlemen I purchased it from (great guy) |

Finding surfing spots in the UK is tough work, even in a Jeep
Sun, 06 Jul 2014You truly have to love surfing to practice the sport in the United Kingdom. The area isn't exactly teeming with warm beaches full of sunbathers, and absolutely no easy spots to find big waves. To be a UK surfer, you need to be a fearless adventurer, not to mention quite lucky. And driving a Jeep might help, too.
Surfers Oli Adams and Micah Lester are traveling around the British Isles in a Jeep Wrangler Overland trying to find the best surf spots out there. These guys don't fit the laid-back surfer stereotype, but that's because finding waves in the UK is hard work. They say that the waves at some of these spots only exist for about three hours every year when the current and winds are just right.
To find these surf spots, the Jeep's offroad capabilities are paramount. In some areas, as you'll see in the video, there isn't even a beach, just jagged rocks. It would be like the movie Endless Summer, that is, if it could start snowing at any moment. These guys are clearly dedicated to their sport.
5 classic trucks and their polarizing modern revivals
Sun, Mar 3 2024EVs are helping eliminate Detroit's gas-guzzling problem. Some revivals of gas-powered classics are getting the EV treatment. But not every revived model looks exactly like its original counterpart. We're in a new era of hulking Detroit metal, and you can thank EVs. Americans can't get enough of their big, beefy trucks and SUVs. But for many years, some of the biggest gas guzzlers fell out of fashion as gas prices rose and emissions regulations tightened. But in the past few years, some of the most iconic American truck nameplates have been brought back to life with electric motors, like the GMC Hummer. In other cases, as with the Ford Bronco, improvements in engine technology and more interest in rugged adventure vehicles made a gas-powered revival possible. Even some revivals that started as gas-powered, like the Chevy Blazer and the Jeep Wagoneer, are now getting electrified spinoffs. (Even if they don't always look quite as sleek as their original inspiration.) Here are side-by-sides of five classic American trucks and their modern counterparts. The Jeep Wagoneer 1975 Jeep Wagoneer and 2024 Electric Jeep Wagoneer SStellantis After a long wait, Jeep released its revival of the classic Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer in 2020. Starting later this year, an electric version of the luxury Jeep SUV will join the Wagoneer lineup. The Chevrolet Blazer A 1973 Chevrolet Blazer and a 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EVGetty Images, General Motors The Chevrolet Blazer was first rebooted in 2019 as a sporty family SUV. The modern Blazer shares zero resemblance to its boxy, off-roading older sibling, but it has still managed to become one of Chevy's more popular SUVs in recent years. The Blazer EV came later, and was one of the first models GM built on its new Ultium battery platform. The Hummer A Hummer H2 and the 2023 Hummer EV pickup truckGetty Images, General Motors Once the poster child for Detroit's big, bad gas guzzlers, the Hummer got new life as an electric pickup truck in 2021. The Ford Bronco A 1971 Ford Bronco and a 2022 Ford BroncoFord Motor Co. After a rouge group of engineers and designers inside Ford spent years trying to breathe life back into the Blue Oval's boxy off-roader, the Ford Bronco was finally resurrected in 2020 amid a rise in popularity for rugged adventure vehicles.

8 cars we're most looking forward to driving in 2015
Mon, Jan 5 2015Now that 2014 is officially in the books, it's time to look ahead. And following our list of the cars we liked best last year, we're now setting our sights at the hot new metal that's coming our way in 2015. Some of these, we've already seen. And some are still set to debut during the 2015 auto show season. But these are the machines that keep us going – the things on the horizon that we're particularly stoked to drive, and drive hard. Jeep Renegade Not the Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Not the Ford Mustang GT350. Not the new John Cooper Works Mini. Nope, I'm looking forward to the adorable, trail-rated Jeep Renegade. And that's because I really, really, really like our long-term Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. I do not, however, care too much for the Cherokee's looks, and I really don't like its $38,059 price tag. The Renegade Trailhawk, meanwhile, promises much of the same rough-and-tumble character as its big brother, but at what we expect will be a more reasonable price (I'm personally wagering on the baby Jeep's off-road model starting at no more than $23,000). With a 2.4-liter four-cylinder and a nine-speed automatic, it should also be a bit easier to fill than the V6-powered Cherokee. Also, I can't help but love the way the Renegade looks. It's like someone took a Wrangler, squished it by 50 percent and then handed it off to George Clinton for a healthy dose of funk. The interior, with its bright, expressive trims and color schemes should also be a really nice place to spend some time. I'll be attending the Renegade's launch later this month, so I'll have a much shorter wait than my colleagues. Here's hoping the baby Jeep lives up to my expectations. – Brandon Turkus Associate Editor Mazda MX-5 Miata Here's an uncomfortable truth: I'd rather spend a day driving a properly sorted Mazda MX-5 Miata of any generation on a winding road than I would nearly any other vehicle, regardless of power, price or prestige. It's not just that I prize top-down driving and enjoy the Miata's small size because it gives me more road to play with. I just find there's more motoring joy to be had with high-fidelity handling and an uncorrupted car-to-driver communication loop than I do with face-distorting power or grip – let alone valet-stand gravitas. But perhaps most of all, I love Miatas because they can deliver that level of feedback and driver reward at modest speeds that won't put the locals on edge or endanger lives – you can use more of the car more of the time.
