1982 Jeep CJ 7 Limited - Only 200 Produced in 1982 - Limited Edition option was $2,587.00 above regular retail price. 


This Vehicle is an Original 1982 Jeep CJ7 LIMITED. 
Vehicle listed is not a replica or built to appear a LIMITED. I documented the entire rebuild as I performed the work.

This vehicle was purchased in December of 2011. It was made known I was the third owner.
It has undergone an extensive restoration performed by myself. It has taken since January 2012 until just last month complete.
Disclosure:
This Jeep had 177k miles on the odometer when purchased, The restoration of this vehicle placed a new Speedometer/odometer which shows actual miles SINCE the restoration. The TITLE WILL SHOW 177k miles and I want to make this clear before you read on. (The motor has been completely rebuilt) Read on.

TERMS:
I request that anyone who is truly interested in purchasing this vehicle, email me to ask any questions
before bidding. This vehicle will not be released until full payment is collected and cleared.
I will not entertain low ball offers so please do not try.
If sold over seas, there will be a fee of $400.00 (U.S.) to deliver to the port in New Jersey, or $500.00 (U.S.) to New York.
Any wired payment fee's will be at your expense.

This Jeep has been completely taken apart, sand blasted, primed, repainted and rebuilt. 
Anti-seize grease on all applications and grade 8 hardware where high strength is required.

This Jeeps original color was Copper Brown Metallic, Nutmeg Hardtop and Nutmeg interior. It has the Golden Bronze Tint hardtop glass that is clean and clear. The hardtop has a Sunroof that opens and closes freely. The headlining is original and in very good shape. The dome light is OEM and shines bright. The hardtop has no damage or repairs made to it. The glass seals are in very good condition.
The Jeeps Power train is the Original 258 Straight Six, 4.2L engine that was fully taken down and the block was sent out to be rebuilt. It was honed and new pistons and rings were installed as well as all other components. New oil pump, rockers, valves etc... Pictures were taken.
the motor runs and idles perfectly at 750 RPM's at 12 degrees at TDC. 
Torque Flite 999 Automatic Transmission was replaced with a very low 54k mile transmission. It is very clean and shifts well. This is bolted to the stock Dana 300 Transfer Case and stock rear AMC20. Dana 30 front axle is stock.
A Brand new Optima Red Top Battery is installed.
The Jeeps original Jack and lug wrench is mounted on the inner fender well, as you would expect.

The frame is original and the ID number recorded. The only repair to the frame were two body mount top plates and front shock absorber mounts were replaced with OEM parts. the frame was cleaned and double coated with POR15.
The axles were in good shape and very clean, I did replace all of the brake cylinders and components. The rear drums are in great shape and front disk brakes work great. Vehicle stops smoothly, and straight.
I rebuilt the leaf springs adding the special liner that was labeled as "Special improved ride package" that gave this CJ7 a smoother feel of suspension that I can feel when on the road.

Pictures of the body before painting shows this tub was in very good condition. Very few, but minor repairs were made to this tub. It has all new caulking on interior metal connections, primed and painted.
The doors were in remarkable condition when purchased.The door panels are original equipment as are the dash, dash pad, leather wrapped grab bar, sun visors, steering column, center console, front and rear seats, seat belts, seat mounts, A/C, clock, Tach, oil & amp gauges. The Stereo is an AMC AM/FM Cassette from another Jeep. The radio works great, but I did not get the cassette player to function. There were a few wires that I did not connect, maybe that is the reason. The speedometer is an aftermarket as the original was sold mistakenly in a parts lot. The dash pad has one small crack in the far left side about 1/4 inch. The nutmeg leather wrapped grab bar has one small piece of leather that was damaged, less than a 1/4 inch.
The seats I had reupholstered. They were leather, but all cracked and not presentable. I had the seats redone on the original frames, foam and mounts, two fronts and the rear seat. The roll bar was painted and has the original Nutmeg Leather wrap with really good color.
The TILT steering column I rebuilt by taking it down to each part, painted and rebuilt installing new guides, springs and bearings. This Tilt column is tight and no play in it. The interior paint was matched by Tower Paint in Wisconsin. I have the full line of AMC Jeep interior paint. Again, the entire vehicle was taken apart and cleaned, painted and reassembled. 
The carpet I special ordered, a pre molded heavy duty carpet with the full sound deadening backing material added. It is beautiful and I had custom Floor mats embroidered with CJ7.
Each wheel was removed, tires taken off and completely sand blasted and repainted. Brand new Radial All Season Tires match all five wheels and have the Bright Trim Rings. The center caps are all original and have great shine to them.
The rear tire carrier is in the best condition I've seen for a CJ.
I have kept this Jeep as original as possible, however the odometer is not OEM, and I could not find the original Limited Badges anywhere.
The paint is really nice. It is not perfect but it does look terrific. It shines really nicely and shows great. Again, each part was painted separately before reassembled, so everything has paint all the way around unlike Factory Paint was done after the vehicles were assembled.
The two tone pin striping is hand painted and compliments the Jeeps color beautifully.
Decals as AMC installed at the factory are throughout the Jeep. 
Factory installed Marchal Lights are mounted on the original Chrome Bumper with the OEM Bumper ends.
The rear bumper has the original Chrome Bumperettes and the stock rear tow bar.
The doors open and close like new, you don't have to fight to get them to open or close. The windows open and close freely and lock with new lock cylinders installed.
This Jeep has the interior lights that go on when the door opens. They work and shine bright with the OEM light domes as does the hardtop light.
The A/C is all connected and blows strong air. I just have yet to charge the system but I do have the kit to convert from R12 to 134A refrigerant. It is all connected and wired ready to be charged which I will do in the next week or so on a nice day.
The heat is good and all the cables work. The blower motor is new and the entire heater system was taken apart, cleaned and painted and reinstalled.
The center console is the original with the gasket and locking stock cylinder with the key.
The ashtray mounted on the dash is perfect and opens and closes as it was when factory installed.
So many features of this 1982 Jeep CJ7 Limited are as close to show room condition as brochures show.
I have the stock Air bonnet & Carter carburetor that come with the Jeep. It still has the yellow decal on it.

Please understand that a lot of work and time went into this project. I have seen Jeep CJ7's restored sell for equal value and this is a LIMITED in which only 200 were produced in 1982 and 1983 only.
I have the Showroom Brochures for this vehicle and glove box owners manual included.
I invite SERIOUS BUYERS to come look at the Jeep (by appointment) and see for yourself how remarkable it is! It makes you feel like you are back in the 80's.

Feel free to email me at dnehrings@gmail.com and leave your phone number if you want me to call you.

Thank you for looking.

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee gets surprisingly comprehensive update, new diesel power

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

Traditionally, automotive journalists can be heard muttering something to the effect of "Geeze, it's about time!" whenever a vehicle's midcycle refresh is revealed. As we routinely see and drive new models many months before the public even claps eyes on them in showrooms - and then go on to tweeze apart their minutia in our daily writings - perhaps some impatience is to be expected. With so much exposure to a given vehicle, it's fair to say we tire of most cars and trucks far more quickly than the average consumer.
The alterations are handsome, if not subtle touches from the "If It Ain't Broke" school of design.
Which is why we're pleased to say "Oh, is it time for that already?" when it comes to the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The current WK2 Grand Cherokee hit the market in 2011 and climbed its way into our hearts with its rugged good looks, go-anywhere capability and surprising refinement. We're not yet tired of its appearance or performance, but even so, we're very glad to see Chrysler giving its flagship Jeep some attention, including a much-anticipated diesel powertrain option and some other economy-minded measures.

Chrysler investing $20M in Toledo plant to support 9-speed auto production

Sun, 28 Apr 2013

In 2011, Chrysler announced a $72-million investment in its Toledo Machining Plant to modernize production of the eight- and nine-speed torque-converters for automatic transmissions made there. That upgrade work won't be finished until Q3 of this year, but Chrysler has already announced a further $19.6-million investment to increase production capacity for the nine-speeders.
The extra units will be necessary because the nine-speed transmission they'll be mated to is going into three popular models: it will debut on the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, then go into the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Dart. The company predicted that this year alone it would sell 200,000 units equipped with the nine-speed tranny, and it is spending some $374 million in addition to the investment in Toledo to upgrade production capacity for it.
The work attached to this new investment won't begin until Q3 of 2014, and it will be finished by the end of that year. There's a press release below with all the details.

Jeep Cherokee appears in Chrysler's second Super Bowl spot

Mon, 03 Feb 2014

The second of three spots produced by Fiat Chrysler Automobiles for this year's Super Bowl featured the all-new 2014 Jeep Cherokee. Aired during the game's half time show, the minute-long ad didn't strike as anything new or innovative from an automaker with a reputation for above average Super Bowl spots, but it did show the controversially styled Cherokee in the best light possible.
Called Restless, the commercial shows young, adventurous types doing the sorts of things that young, adventurous types do: surfing, skateboarding, cliff jumping, staring off into the sky with a pensive expression, etc. Scroll down to watch Restless for yourself and let us know in Comments if Jeep managed to hold your attention during half time.
