1975 Jeep Cj5 (304 V8) Lifted W/31" Tires & Tilt Steering on 2040-cars
Lompoc, California, United States
|
Hello & Thanks for Looking, Up for auction is my personal 1975 Jeep CJ5 V8 Softop. I bought this as a basket-case and have sorted through this truck to make a truly reliable and fun Jeep. I've gone through and replaced almost all of the electrical connectors from the front turn signals to the new LED brake lights and almost all the wiring between.There are no electrical gremlins, and the alternator charges incredibly quickly. I've been using this Jeep as my daily driver for some time, and the farthest I've driven it is 350 miles in one way (8hr trip) . This CJ5 starts the first time, every time. As life would have it, my wife and I are expecting our first child so the Jeep has to go. It's a real shame because I've spent so much time and money to get this Jeep to the way you see it today. The condition report should be read at the bottom for consideration. With a little paint, this could easily be a $20,000 truck, because everything mechanical has pretty much been done. Buyer must co-ordinate shipping if buyer requires freight, but I'm very to work with a shipping company if needed. The Main Features of this Jeep are: Engine -Stock 304 V8 w/2bbl Carb -Engine Runs Very Strong with Almost 40psi Oil Pressure at Startup -All engine wiring sorted out, and everything works and verified

Being over 40 years old, this CJ5 is in great mechanical shape. There are several nicks, and paint defects and with minimal rust (please see pictures). -This is a California truck, and has a current/clear CA title. The registration & plates will expire on 5/14/14, and will cost $19 to register after that date in CA. -The paint has been touched up, but it's an older metallic paint it is hard to match, but it is close. The hood has some clear coat damage, but still looks good. The cowl vent has a chrome blank panel installed, and the blue paint has chipped on the chrome. On the passenger/drivers side there are a couple bubbles under the paint near the jeep logo. -The transmission reverse gear synchros grind when going in reverse sometimes, but I added new fluid additives so it may go away. The synchros got worn because the previous owner used it as a parking brake. -The brakes pull slightly to the right initially, I believe it's a front pad issue since the previous owner drove this Jeep with the master cylinder/booster working. -Being a California Jeep, there isn't much rust for the age. The passenger side front tub support shows some old rust damage, but it's doing it's job (there's a photo from underneath)Typical small surface rust near the exterior reinforcement panel on both sides. These are all to be expected from a vehicle of this age. The CJ5 was made for utility so it's amazing these trucks survived at all! Please contact me if you have any questions of if you want to take a test drive. Also, please email me if you would like more photos (eBay will only allow 12 of my photos per auction). Please Ask Any Questions Before Bidding. A Deposit of $150 is Required from the Winning Bidder Within 72 hours (3days) After Auction to Cover eBay Fees

Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).
Chrysler recalls small number of 2013-2014 cars and trucks over engine debris
Thu, 12 Dec 2013Chrysler is recalling a small number cars over issues with their 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines. The recall, which affects 522 examples of its 2013 Dodge Avenger and Chrysler 200 models, as well as 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot CUVs has to do with potential debris in the balance shaft bearings.
The abrasive stuff can cause the oil pressure to drop, which could lead to the engine stalling or outright failure. This situation could at best leave drivers stranded and at worst lead to a crash.
Chrysler will begin notifying owners, who will need to report in to have the balance shaft module replaced. All repairs are naturally free of charge. Scroll down for the bulletin from NHTSA.
China orders Jeep to investigate Wrangler fire risk
Mon, 06 Jan 2014It's been some time since we've heard anything about fires related to the Jeep Wrangler (foreign or domestic), but it sounds like the go-anywhere SUV could be in hot water once again in China. Bloomberg is reporting that the Chinese government is ordering Jeep to investigate the matter and, in the meantime, also recommending Wrangler owners to not drive their vehicles in "extreme conditions" due to a "relatively high risk" of catching on fire.
There is no indication as to how many vehicles or which model years are affected, but the previous fire problems in both the US and China - which led to investigations but no recalls - were traced back to automatic transmission fluid leaks. The article, however, does not say what the potential problem is this time around as Jeep has not released a comment on the matter. The official notice, in Chinese, can be found here.
