1984 Jeep CJ7 Laredo This 3 owner 1984 Jeep CJ7 Laredo is a beautiful classic and original rust free California Jeep. It spent the last 20 years in the desert of California before I brought it back with me to Colorado in February. The engine is incredible and has so much power that I can easily travel 70mph driving over the mountain passes here in Colorado comfortably. The custom Rear Dana 60 Differential can withstand the power of the V8 all day long! It is also set up to perfectly to conquer the most difficult terrain possible. This CJ7 Laredo is ready to be driven daily, on the weekends or in the mountains and I wouldn't be afraid to drive this Jeep anywhere. Aftermarket Upgrades completed at 100k and cost over $20k: * rebuilt1990 Chevy 350 TBI 350v8 *rebuilt 700R4 Automatic Transmission with Rachet shifter *Electric Fuel Pump *Custom Build Rear differential Dana 60 with 35 spline chromoly Axel shafts, 4.11 gears and an ARB air Locker *Front Dana 30 Differential with chromoly shafts, 4.11 gears and an ARB Air Locker *35" BFG Mud Terrain Tires with approx half tread *4wp Front Reverse Shackles and 4" Rear suspension *Custom Driveshafts front and rear *Aftermarket Front Seats *Bed Liner on the inside of the tub *Full Front Roll Cage with new grab handles *Custom Rack for the back included (holds a snowboard, cooler or whatever you need to haul - has hitch too) *Power Steering Brace *Tuffy Center Console with Sony Detachable CD player *Aftermarket heavy duty 20 Gallon Fuel Tank *Custom Rock rails under the doors *Bestop Sunrider soft top with all hardware and clear windows Engine: Rebuilt 1990 Chevrolet 350 5.7L V8 with Throttle Body Injection. The Jeep runs incredible, sounds fantastic and it doesn't matter if it is cold or hot outside it fires right up thanks to it being fuel injected. It runs great, is super peppy and doesn't leak any fluids. I recently upgraded the radiator with a new Aluminum unit and relocated the overflow radiator tank closer to it since there is no longer a starter solenoid on the passenger fender. I also replaced the spark plugs last week. Transmission/Transfer Case: 700R4 Automatic Transmission with overdrive is excellent. It shifts great, without play, grinding, slipping or crunching. It has a rachet shifter on it that makes shifting super easy. The transfer case is a Dana 300 and has a small drip. It easily goes into gear high and low range 4wheel drive. Drivetrain/suspension: The Jeep drives excellent with the lift. The front suspension is a reverse shackle conversion that makes driving enjoyable especially with a lifted Jeep. The sway bar has disconnects which is great for off road driving. Each leaf spring has U bolt skid plates so you will never have to worry about breaking a u bolt. The drivetrain is perfectly set up with ARB Air locking differentials, 4.11 gears and chromoly shafts and heavy duty ujoints. The power steering is super sensitive and drives like a Jeep but seems to drive easy to me. The power brake booster needs replacement. The brakes work ok but don't have much boost at startup however after it is driven and warmed up it is much better. I have driven this Jeep 600 miles without issues. Interior Controls/Switches: Everything in the interior works great except the factory tach and intermittently the windshield wipers. Sometimes I'm noticing on the speedometer the ebrake light appearing at startup then goes away after driving a bit. There is an aftermarket tach on the steering column that works great. The sony CD player/radio is in the center console. There are front dash speakers and rear 6x9s by the roll bar. The Tuffy console adds security however I do not have the key for it. The fuel, speedometer, heater odometer, blinkers, horn, lights etc all work as well. Paint/Body/Rust: The paint is the original Black and original Laredo Striping. The paint is beautiful and very reflective, shiny and lots of luster but still 30 years old and has minor blemishes. The hood has some small dings, a line crease from where it was rested on the windshield frame at one point. The rear fender flares are a custom fit and from a Jeep Wrangler YJ. The Jeep is rust free except for some minor surface rust spots on the windshield frame hinges etc. It also has some rock chips on the windshield frame. The frame is rust free and has never been repaired. Behind the passenger rear flare there is some cracking, it is hard to tell if it was body work at one point or if from flexing the body off road but I am unsure exactly. Interior: The interior is nice, the front captains chairs are aftermarket black vinyl. They are only a couple months old and in excellent condition. There is no rear seat or carpet. The inside of the tub has been bed lined. The dash pad is very clean and I do not have a rear seat however one can easily be added if you chose to want one. You can get one to match the front seats too. Soft Top/Doors: The black Bestop Sunrider soft top is in excellent condition and was purchased 4 months ago. The sunrider is unique in that you can open the front area like a sunroof without removing the entire top. The original doors do not have any rust, the windows roll up and down very easily. Unfortunately I do not have a key for the doors. The wing windows open and close with ease and the seal tight. The doors interior panels are great, both door have a few scratches, sand chips and the drivers side has a little defect pushed in (view all pictures). Overall: This is a beautiful Jeep and ready to go and a classic that is turn key and ready to go. It would make the perfect weekend warrior, beach runner or mountain adventurer. The CJ7 is used and 30 years old, it may have blemishes, scratches, nicks etc that I didn't capture on my camera. Overall the condition is beautiful! I do my best to illustrate the condition, I may have missed something so be sure to ask all questions you have prior to bidding or winning the Jeep. The Jeep is being sold as is, where is, without warranty or guarantees. I am not required for your state emission or safety inspections including Colorado. Shipping: If you are out of state and need to have this Jeep shipped, call M&E Auto Transport #606-354-3643. Michael is great to work with and offers competitive pricing, quick pickup and delivery. He helped me ship this Jeep back to Colorado from California in February. Conclusion: A $500 non refundable deposit is due within 24 hours of the conclusion of the auction via paypal. All sales are final. The final payment must be received within 7 days of auction end time. Payment options include cash upon pickup, Electronic Bank Transfer or Wire Transfer.

25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango SUVs recalled over brake feel
Mon, 10 Mar 2014Chrysler has announced that it is recalling over 25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs from several markets over concerns about brake feel under hard braking. The affected models are from the 2012 and 2013 model years, although the actual dates of production aren't available. 18,700 are in the US, while 825 are in Canada, 530 are in Mexico and a further 5,200 outside of North America.
According to a statement, Chrysler was informed of the issue by a component supplier for the Ready Alert Braking system, which primes the brakes in anticipation of an emergency stop. A component in the system was restricting the flow of brake fluid too much.
As Chrysler is quick to point out, the way the brakes functioned was in compliance with regulations and there are no reported cases of drivers losing braking power. Instead, the issue rests with what Chrysler calls a pedal feel that "was not consistent with customer expectations." So it would seem Chrysler is being proactive and fixing a problem not because there's a legal issue at work, but simply because it doesn't feel the way the manufacturer wants it to. Well done.
Drive like a prince: Join us for a walk through Monaco's car collection
Fri, Dec 29 2023Small, crowded, and a royal pain in the trunk lid to drive into during rush hour, Monaco sounds like an improbable location for a huge car museum. And yet, this tiny city-state has been closely linked to car culture for over a century. It hosts two major racing events every year, many of its residents would qualify for a frequent shopper card if Rolls-Royce issued one, and Prince Rainier III began assembling a collection of cars in the late 1950s. He opened his collection to the public in 1993 and the museum quickly turned into a popular tourist attraction. The collection continued to grow after his death in April 2005; it moved to a new facility located right on Hercules Port in July 2022. Monaco being Monaco, you'd expect to walk into a room full of the latest, shiniest, and most powerful supercars ever to shred a tire. That's not the case: while there is no shortage of high-horsepower machines, the first cars you see after paying ˆ10 (approximately $11) to get in are pre-war models. In that era, the template for the car as we know it in 2023 hadn't been created, so an eclectic assortment of expensive and dauntingly experimental machines roamed whatever roads were available to them. One is the Leyat Helica, which was built in France in 1921 with a 1.2-liter air-cooled flat-twin sourced from the world of aviation. Fittingly, the two-cylinder spun a massive, plane-like propeller. Government vehicles get a special spot in the museum. They range from a Cadillac Series 6700 with an amusing blend of period-correct French-market yellow headlights and massive fins to a 2011 Lexus LS 600h with a custom-made transparent roof panel that was built by Belgian coachbuilder Carat Duchatelet for Prince Albert II's wedding. Here's where it all gets a little weird: you've got a 1952 Austin FX3, a Ghia-bodied 1959 Fiat 500 Jolly, a 1960 BMW Isetta, and a 1971 Lotus Seven. That has to be someone's idea of a perfect four-car garage. One of the most significant cars in the collection lurks in the far corner of the main hall, which is located a level below the entrance. At first glance, it's a kitted-out Renault 4CV with auxiliary lights, a racing number on the front end, and a period-correct registration number issued in the Bouches-du-Rhone department of France. It doesn't look all that different than the later, unmodified 4CV parked right next to it. Here's what's special about it: this is one of the small handful of Type 1063 models built by Renault for competition.
Ford leads top searched-for car brands on Google in 2014
Mon, Dec 22 2014With less than two weeks until 2014 takes its final bow, anyone and everyone is looking back on the past 50 or so weeks to see how they stacked up. For search giant Google, that means its time to check out its annual Trends report. Besides the most popular search term (the late, great Robin Williams), the most searched for gadget (the iPhone 6) and most searched for disease symptoms (quite worryingly, Ebola took the crown here), we have the most searched for automaker. With the long-awaited sixth-generation of one of America's most iconic vehicles, the Mustang, and a ground-breaking update for the US market's perennial best seller, the F-Series, it should come as no surprise at all that Ford was Google's most searched for automaker in 2014. Jeep captured second place, while Dodge, took third. We suspect introducing a pair of cars with 707 horsepower had something to do with that bronze medal... Scroll down to see the rest of this year's most searched for automakers, and then head into Comments and let us know if you're surprised by any of these. This content is hosted by a third party.
