Jeep is 95%. Runs, drives, stops fine. Needs some small things like horn not working, tail light out, and parking lights not working. The heater box is out of it, but I have it. There is no soft top for it. I do have a Steel Horse hard top that I bought. Needs cleaned up and I assume it will fit, as it's for a CJ5. I can include that for what I paid, $275.00. I can tow this for free up to 50 miles so it's no problem getting it home to you. I can tow it for $1 per mile, up to 150 miles. This Jeep is a pretty good Jeep for the price I'm asking. The tub is fiberglass, so no rust!!!!!. The front end is metal with no rust. I bought the Jeep like this. Hood and fenders look to have been new. Windshield is good with one rust spot. No cracks in windshield. Inside of tub has herculiner. Paint looks pretty good, but is not perfect. There is a run on the hood. The front of the hood and fenders has some type of black liner on it. There is a few normal paint chips. Some how there is some black paint overspray in it. If I have a chance, I will get that off. Overall, I think the paint does look okay. In the engine compartment, Jeep has a new aluminum radiator, power steering, power brakes, and a nice clean 258 6cyl. I just put a $300 carter 2bbl carb on it, so the engines idles and runs fine. When sitting, there is a puff of smoke upon startup. New exhaust with glass pack. Frame has no rust. I did not paint it red, but it's easy to see how clean this Jeep is. Hard to find a frame with no rust. Jeep has disk brakes in front with new pads. Drum brakes in back with new shoes and hardware. All new brake lines and hoses. New gas tank and fuel gauge works. Jeep has the HD T18 4 speed with granny gear. Dana 20 transfer case. 4wd works good with no noises. Not sure on the lift, but it has Buckshot 33 x 12.5 x 15 tires on wagon wheels.

'84 MotorWeek Cherokee, Bronco and Blazer comparison indulges your SUV nostalgia
Fri, Jan 16 2015These days, truck-based, full-frame SUVs are somewhat of a rarity on the auto landscape due to the rapid rise in popularity of easier-driving, car-based crossovers. Although, without the gradually building popularity of these chunky, high-riding vehicles decades ago, it's unlikely that America's roads would be filled with so many CUVs today. In its latest dig into the archives, MotorWeek has found a 1984 comparison test of a trio of these early Sport Utility Wagons, as long-time host John Davis called them, that helped get acceptance of this segment going. This is a red, white and blue test of the SUVs from American automakers at the time and pits the Chevrolet Blazer, Ford Bronco and Jeep Cherokee (specifically in Wagoneer guise) against each other. Driving manners and interior usability are considered in the evaluation, but Motorweek actually takes these vehicles off road, too. Among the bigger revelations is the improvement in on-road ability in the past 30 years. While specific 0-60 times aren't given, all three models take around 10 seconds just to get to around 50 miles per hour in the 500-feet on-ramp acceleration test. Check out this clip to see just how far this segment has progressed in the past three decades or just get a blast of nostalgia from these now vintage models.

NHTSA investigating power modules on Chrysler Group SUVs and minivans
Mon, 29 Sep 2014The Center for Auto Safety is officially petitioning the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to begin scrutinizing alleged problems with the totally integrated power module (TIPM) on about 24 Chrysler Group SUVs and minivans. The advocacy group claims that the part's failure can cause affected vehicles to stall or not start at all. NHTSA is still looking into the accusations and deciding whether a full investigation is actually warranted.
The CAS petition claims at least 70 TIPM failures, but according to NHTSA, six of the complaints are for models that don't have the modules. In 34 of the reported cases, the vehicles refused to start, and in 17 of them the engine stalled. There were also two allegations of smoke and one of a fire. However, none of these affected airbag deployment or resulted in a crash.
This petition isn't the first TIPM-related problem for Chrysler Group. A recent report in the New York Times alleged that it found 240 complaints potentially related to the issue on NHTSA's website alone. In September, the automaker also recalled 230,760 examples worldwide (188,723 in the US) of the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango replace the fuel pump relay circuit inside of the TIPM-7 with one external to the unit. The original part could allegedly cause the models to stall without warning. Even earlier, the company also recalled about 80,000 examples of the Jeep Wrangler and Dodge Nitro in 2007 to have the module reprogrammed.
FCA cuts powertrain warranties to 60k miles
Fri, May 29 2015FCA US is cutting back the mileage of its powertrain warranty on some 2016 model year vehicles. Rather than the current five years/100,000 miles of coverage, the new amount is five years/60,000 miles for gasoline-fueled models from Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge and Ram. In March 2015, General Motors made a similar switch to five-years/60,000-miles of coverage for Chevrolet and GMC, and FCA US seems to be citing this as part of the reason for the shift. "Following changes already made by competitors, FCA US is adjusting powertrain warranty coverage for 2016 model year vehicles to be more consistent with industry practices," the automaker said in a portion of its statement. The bumper-to-bumper warranty for these vehicles is unchanged at three years/36,000 miles. According to Automotive News, Fiat's warranty is remaining at four years/50,000 miles. When it changed the mileage limit, GM also halved the number of free service visits for Chevy, GMC, and Buick to two from the previous four. The automaker claimed that the reason for the adjustments to its coverage was that a long warranty was seldom a reason for customers to buy a vehicle.

The basic coverage, also known as "bumper to bumper," remains at 3 years/36,000 miles. # # # News Source: FCA US, Automotive News - sub. req.Image Credit: Mark Ralston / AFP / Getty Images Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM Car Buying Maintenance Ownership FCA warranty fca us powertrain
