Up for sale is a nice barn find Jeep CJ7.  It has been sitting under a shade tree for a few years and its alive again ready for someone to love it.  I recently just put about $2000 in it.  Heres some of the new parts:  Tires(31x10.50x15), brake booster, cap, rotor, plugs wires, hoses, front brakes, shift boot, door handles, defroster duct, all new fluids, and more.  I put front seats out of a YJ in it with seat covers.  I will throw in the original front seats which match the back seat, which is very nice.  Title says box B so I am unsure if the miles are original, but they could be.

Under the hood is a 258 6 cylinder engine with all the smog equipment on and functioning.  It is matched up to a 3 speed transmission, and of course a transfer case with high and low.  This Jeep features  Warn hubs, power brakes, with disc in the front, power steering, air conditioning (works like a champ!), heater, and front and rear driving lights. 

The AC works, the heater and defroster work, all lights work*, turn signals work, wipers, work, the air horn works, yes AIR HORN!, 4X4, works, gas gauge works, speedo works, oil pressure gauge works, volt gauge works, temp gauge works.  Front and rear driving lights.  Tinted windows on the hardtop. Factory rollbar.  Comes with Chilton manual.  The oil pressure at start up is 60 psi, drives at 40-60 psi, and idles at 20psi. 

There is very little that does not work on this rig!  Here it is as best as I can describe it:  *The high beam indicator light does not work.  The high and low beams work, just no blue indicator light on the dash, probably a bulb.  The dash is held on buy two stylish straps!  I don't have the key for the rear hatch.  Very slight lean on the left rear.  It runs a little rough when its cold, (probably due to the smog equipment) but purrs like a kitten when its warm.  This has been an Arizona rig for many years but there is a little rust on it, but not much.  You have to hunt to find it.  The carpet is not the greatest.  I have not messed with the sunroof at all.  No radio.  I put the driving light toggle switches in that spot and there is room to add 2 or 3 more switches.  Does it leak?  Of course it does, its a Jeep!

If you want I will throw in the original soft top and doors and frame.  The windows are yellowed and have been chewed up a little but you can have them if you want.  It is white and I have never installed it.

I drive this Jeep to work 4 days a week, 35 miles each way, over a mountain.  Im at 3500 feet, the mountain is 7000 feet.  It drives smooth and quiet and gets around 15mpg.  Keep in mind this is a 1979 so it has a personality but overall its a wonderful classic collectible Jeep.  It is pretty much stock too.    Tires have less than 1000 miles on them.  I welcome questions.

I wont ship it but if you coordinate shipping and pay for it I will assist any way I can.  $500 paypal deposit due immediately and is non refundable, even if you change your mind.  The rest of the money is due within a week and can be cash, check, or money order.  I can store the Jeep for a while too if you want.

Here's what it'll take to build a Jeep Grand Cherokee Hellcat

Fri, Jun 19 2015

Let's get one thing straight: We want a 707-horsepower Grand Cherokee Hellcat to happen. Badly. The latest report from Motor Authority is encouraging; the bonkers SUV supposedly has a codename, Project K, and has been given the green light for production. Fingers crossed. You might be wondering why the Trackhawk isn't already a thing. Hellcat engines exist, SRT Grand Cherokees exist, so just combine the two, right? It's not quite that easy. Here, we outline what needs to happen, why it should be the quickest Hellcat vehicle out there, and why it won't come anywhere near 200 miles per hour. How To Build A Hellcat Jeep The first engineering problem is feeding the air-intensive beast that is the 6.2-liter supercharged V8. The first engineering problem is feeding the air-intensive beast that is the 6.2-liter supercharged Hellcat V8. Breathing is important on two counts: pulling in enough air for the combustion to put out 707 hp, and then cooling the various heat exchangers once the engine is up to temperature. Dodge did it with the Charger and Challenger, it can do it with the Jeep. This is one place where the Grand Cherokee's larger frontal area might be a boon, as it gives the engineers more surfaces through which to suck air. Once you generate the 707 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque, it has to get to the wheels somehow. Jeep's current SRT all-wheel-drive system will at least need some beefing up to handle the torque. It could require a more complete re-engineering. We at least know the ZF-supplied eight-speed auto, used in the Dodge Hellcat models, is up to the task. The Hellcat engine should fit in the Grand Cherokee, as it's about the same size as the 6.4-liter currently in SRT Jeeps, but the Hellcat is taller because of its supercharger. The hood may need to be raised or at least resculpted for clearance, as well as to address those cooling needs. Quicker Than Everything, But Not Faster 200 mph? We're skeptical, from both a physics standpoint and a legal one. A reminder of the quick/fast distinction: quick is acceleration, fast is road speed. The Jeep's all-wheel drive will help put the Hellcat engine's power to the ground in a more manageable way than the Charger and Challenger do through just the rear wheels. That means better acceleration times than the Dodges (11.0 seconds in the quarter-mile for the Charger Hellcat, 11.2 for its Challenger sibling).

FCA seeking new trial in Jeep fire case, calls $150M judgement 'grossly excessive'

Sat, May 9 2015

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is fighting back after a Decatur County, GA jury ordered the company to pay $150 million to the family of a four-year-old boy that was killed after a 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee crashed and caught fire. The company is requesting the judge reduce the award, and should Walden's family not agree to the lower sum, that a new trial be held. The Detroit Free Press reports that FCA would be forced to pay $120 million over the death of young Remington Walden, with an extra $30 million being paid to the boy's family. Neither figure sits well with the automaker, though, which called the fine "grossly excessive," and claimed it was in violation of Georgia state law. The judgment stems from FCA's long-running problem with the fuel tanks of certain Jeep models built in the 1990s and 2000s. According to the newspaper, FCA argues that the jury was biased after the Waldens' attorneys played on the their passions and pushed for a big award, saying the wrongful death award was 11 times more than any appeals court has ever upheld. FCA said attorneys for the plaintiffs told the jury to base the settlement on Sergio Marchionne's total compensation, $68 million. FCA also claims in its motion that the young boy's suffering was brief. "A $30-million pain-and-suffering award for what plaintiffs acknowledge was at most one minute of suffering is irrational," the motion, which was obtained by The Detroit Free Press, read. "Where such plainly improper arguments are immediately followed by irrational and stunningly excessive damage awards, there can be no doubt that the jury acted from passion and prejudice." Jim Butler, the attorney for the Waldens, has called the motion "nonsense," although he said the family will accept whatever figure the judge sets.

Australian Jeep marketing stunt goes awry [w/video]

Tue, 15 Jul 2014

Jeep fans in Australia are none too happy with the off-road brand following a contest that saw ten new Cherokees sold for just $10,000 Australian (about $9,400), roughly a quarter of the vehicle's price Down Under.
The contest, called the "World's Most Remote Dealership," gave Aussies the chance to snag an ultra-affordable Cherokee Longitude (analogous to the US-spec Latitude trim), provided they could get to a secret dealership in the remote wilderness of western New South Wales, near the border with the state of South Australia.
In order to get the exact location of the dealership, though, potential customers needed to download an app, which would release a phone number 9:00 AM AEST on Thursday (7:00 PM EDT, Wednesday night). The first ten people who could call in and prove they could afford to finance $10,000 and get to the remote dealership, were given the location of the remote dealership.
