You are viewing a super solid and all original1981 CJ-5 Renegade. This Jeep was purchased new at Tupelo Datsun/American Motors in Tupelo, Mississippi. The original MSRP was $9479.00. Optional equipment is as follows, Renegade package, 258 6 cylinder engine, rear traction lock differential, power steering, power front disc brakes, tilt steering wheel, blue denim soft top, and draw bar with hitch. This CJ still wears its original Olympic white paint, Renegade stripes/decals, and blue denim Whitco soft top! It truly is an unbelievable survivor that has been untouched by its only two owners. The body is rock solid with no rust repair ever. It is laser straight too with no dents anywhere! The paint is 33 years old but still looks amazing! It is very obvious that this Jeep has been garaged and pampered its entire life! Even the original Whitco soft top looks great! There is absolutely no evidence of previous accident damage, rust repair, patch panels, bonds, etc. this Jeep really is beautiful. You could search for years and years and still not find a CJ that is this original and clean!
Mechanically, this Jeep is super sound. It has just 99K miles from new but could pass for a Jeep with half the miles. It starts up easily and runs absolutely perfect. The motor sounds super smooth and does not run hot, knock, tick, etc. it pulls strong through the gears and is a pleasure to drive. The T 176 4 speed transmission shifts perfectly and the 4WD works as it should. The alternator, starter, solenoid, battery cables, etc. are new. I have a receipt for the tires when they were purchased by the original owner back in 1990! They now have about 23K miles on them and are still in good shape. Absolutely everything works on this Jeep including the lights, gauges, turn signals, wipers,horn, heater, blower motor, etc. The Jeep drives down the road nice and straight and is super quiet too. Again, this is as nice of an unrestored time capsule CJ-5 as you will ever find for my reserve price. I have the original owners manual, books, window sticker, service records, bikini top, top parade boot, jack, etc. If you have been searching for a beautiful unmolested Jeep then you've found it. Now is your chance to own this appreciating classic. Many of my auctions end with just a phone call. I can arrange shipping worldwide. 205-276-1918. |

Fiat-based baby Jeep spotted testing in US and Europe
Thu, 03 Oct 2013Details remain scarce, but our spy photographers have managed to capture the upcoming Jeep B-segment crossover for the first time, testing in both the Alps and in the US. Shown here as a cobbled-together Fiat 500L mule, the new Jeep model is expected to arrive for the 2015 model year and act as a replacement for the current Compass and Patriot models.
According to our shooter, the new "baby Jeep" will share a platform with the Fiat 500X, and both models will be built on the same assembly line in Turin, Italy. We can't tell much from these images, but the added length apparent on this 500L mule would seem to dispel the recent speculation that the new entry-level Jeep model would be sized closer to the Ford Fiesta - since the 500L is already considerably larger than the Fiesta. Powertrain options will likely mirror other Fiat/Chrysler collaborative vehicles like the Dodge Dart, but this Jeep will also try to live up to its off-road roots with an optional all-wheel-drive system.
Ram, Jeep redesigns on hold, Alfa Romeo models may come sooner
Wed, Jun 3 2015Last summer, FCA outlined an ambitious five-year plan that sketched out the company's product intentions for each of its brands through the end of 2018. However, even the best strategies sometimes need tweaking. According to Reuters after speaking with unnamed people at auto suppliers, FCA is now possibly delaying at least a dozen projects in North America for a variety of reasons. From vehicle to vehicle, these postponements allegedly last anywhere from just a few months to over a year. The sources from the suppliers claim that in some cases these tweaks are for engineering and design changes. The next-gen Ram 1500 reportedly has among the shorter delays and is being pushed from mid-2017 to November 2017, according to Reuters. Also, the much-discussed future Jeep Wrangler is allegedly moving a little later to July 2017. Among the vehicles purportedly seeing longer delays, the next-gen Grand Cherokee could get pushed back about a year to 2018. That then forces the launch of the three-row, luxury Grand Wagoneer to be even further away. Jeep's upcoming C-segment CUV and the all-new Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger, and Challenger might also see postponements. The one brand allegedly seeing an accelerated plan is Alfa Romeo. Without going into detail, the sources from these suppliers claim that the Italian automaker is getting even more vehicles for its lineup and could get them even faster than planned. "Those plans need to be flexible and fluid, with the potential to add some vehicles, pull some forward and extend the life cycle of others," FCA said to Reuters about all of these allegations. "We look at these programs on a vehicle-by-vehicle basis." Investment in the auto industry has been a major topic for FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne as of late. He believes consolidation is necessary so that companies aren't burning money on the same projects.

Radical 2016 Jeep Wrangler suggested by job listings?
Fri, 31 May 2013With most inside the industry expecting the next-generation Jeep Wrangler to arrive for the 2016 model year, it makes sense that the automaker would be looking for some choice candidates to to fill program openings as the off-roader goes through its development. A recent ad on Chryslercareers.com suggests to some that the lightweight Wrangler Stitch Concept, revealed just two months ago and shown above, provides some clues about the off-road icon's next iteration.
According to Automotive News, the job descriptions - which don't name the model specifically - hint that the next-generation Wrangler will benefit from a serious diet. The ads appear to seek those familiar with advanced high-strength steels, hinting that lightweight aluminum body panels may appear on the 4x4. In addition, there are suggestions that Jeep may fit the Wrangler replacement with air suspension, as seen on the Ram and Grand Cherokee, to retain ample off-road clearance yet lower that chassis to improve aerodynamics at highway speeds. The job postings reportedly also lend credence to the idea of a diesel Wrangler.
It seems every bit of the next-generation Wrangler is up for review, as it will be the first time this iconic model is redesigned under Fiat ownership. Questions remain whether or not the Jeep will retain its clip-down hood, easy-to-remove door pins and folding front windshield - loyalists expect them, but fuel economy and safety standards may crimp their cases for survival.
