5/6/2013 Let's try this one more time. I received multiple inquiries after my most recent listing with offers well over where the bidding got to. If you want to buy the Jeep, bid on it. My reserve is $25K but if I have some decent participation I will consider lowering that number. I will not do a "buy it now". I will be happy to answer any questions about equipment or condition. Condition is easy though, it's new throughout. For those dealers who have inquired, maybe this is a $40 k vehicle off of your lot. It's a show-stopper. Email your questions and if necessary we can go to the phone. In the event of a no-sale, I will negotiate with you after the sale only if you participated. Good luck, bid well, bid often, there is nothing else like this available here. Disregard the "Base sport utility" and 4.2liter mentioned in the above description.
Originally commissioned by a local entrepreneur for use at his beachfront property in Mexico. Built by CW Performance in Longmont, Colo, Carl Wells (RIP) has built some very nice vehicles. I have receipts for over $100K spent, no nut or bolt has been left untouched. Only the highest quality pieces were selected for this build.
Engine started lifeas a 1999 Wrangler 4.0 liter. It was rebuilt and uses fuel injection, a Crane Cam, a larger throttle body and a very gorgeous Hesco aluminum head. A Borrani header takes care of the exhaust flow. It runs great. The clutch is a Centerforce, the trans a rebuilt Borg/Warner T5. Dual Optima batteries are held in a Wrangler Products battery tray. An aluminum radiator is cooled by twin electric fans, thermostatically controlled. Front and rear diffs are 4.56 ratio, the rear an AMC 20 (I believe) with locker, the front equipped with an Ox locker controlled from inside. Axles are either new or remanufactured as are the driveshafts. Both diffs feature attractive alloy covers. Brakes are new and equipped with stainless brake lines. Suspension is by Fab Tek and Rubicon. Rubicon express with 4.5" lift and Rubicon extreme duty shock kit. The wheels are Sertes (the invoice was a little unclear) model 397 and are shod with Goodyear Dura/trac 33/12.50/15 tires, 5 of them. A Skyjacker transfer case lowering kit is also fitted. The bumpers are both Warn brand with a rear tire carrier and front winch mount options. The Warn winch is a Powerplant Dual Force with air compressor built in. Winch controls are both wired and keyless remote. A very professional roll cage will keep you unruffled. All lighting is special, featuring Delta H4 conversions, Hella lights and KC spots. All running lights are LED and look very cool. Warn Rock Sliders protect the rocker panels. A high lift jack is securly mounted above the spare.
The frame has been powder coated, the body or tub has been Rhinolined on the underside as well as the interior. The Gold color professionally done of course. The hood, windshield, windshield frame are new. The instruments are either new or reman and work perfectly. A Kenwood radio/navigation/dvd is enhanced by an Alpine amp and Boss as well as DC Gold speakers. The Trailmaster seats are matching, front and rear. A pilot to co/pilot intercom system is included for when the going gets very exciting. Headsets with mic's are included. Tuffy brand center console protects the radio and a dash mounted Tuffy security glovebox protects other valuables.
The Besttop roof and windows as well as doors are only about 3 years old. The Jeep was finished in 2008 and has about 2800 miles. I use the term "new" a lot in describing items, in truth everything has been used for 2800 miles. Other new or reman items I forgot to mention: steering box, ball joints, tie rod ends, Q Snorkel, poly fuel tank, steering wheel, and much more.
I got the Jeep from the gentleman who commissioned the build. I would like to move it on to finance my road racing habits. If you ever wanted to put together an awesome Jeep, here it is. My name is Jack and I am certainly available to answer your questions. I have perfect feedback and want to keep it that way. Good luck and please bid.

Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango to lose color options temporarily
Wed, 19 Nov 2014In the market for a Jeep Grand Cherokee or Dodge Durango? Well, if you fancy a more expressive color for your new SUV, you'd better get your order in, or plan on waiting until well into 2015.
The SUVs will be limited to just four monochromatic shades - black, white, silver and gray - until at least February, thanks to an upgrade to the paint shop at the two vehicles' Jefferson North factory. For the Grand Cherokee, that means it's losing more than half its color palette while the Durango is dropping two-thirds of its color catalog.
The loss of colors is inconvenient, but the upgrade will have a slightly bigger effect on the overall supply of SUVs, as Chrysler will need to end its relentless build pace at the factory for a three-week shutdown starting on December 22. The good news for fans of the SUVs is that once the work is completed, we should see a gradual expansion of the color palettes for both the Durango and Grand Cherokee, beyond even what's offered now.

2014 Jeep Cherokee musters 22 MPG city, 31 highway
Thu, 05 Sep 2013Production and media drive delays included, there has been no lack of press surrounding the 2014 Jeep Cherokee. With the most recent delay reportedly due to powertrain calibrations, we've been waiting to see how the Cherokee's fuel economy looks against the highly competitive compact CUV segment. Thanks to the EPA, we now know the fuel economy figures for the newest member of the Jeep family.
Arguably, the Cherokee has the most modern powertrain in its class with an updated base engine, all-new V6 and all-new nine-speed automatic transmission, but its fuel economy figures are simply on par for the segment. Still nothing to scoff at, though. According to fueleconomy.gov, front-wheel-drive Cherokee models with the base four-cylinder mill will top out the lineup with 22 miles per gallon in the city and 31 mpg on the highway; opting for four-wheel drive with this engine drops the figures to 21 city and 28 highway. Get even crazier with the option list, and the new 3.2-liter Pentastar V6 will get you 19 mpg city and 28 mpg highway in two-wheel-drive form or 19 city and 27 highway for 4WD.
If you're wondering how that stacks up among compact CUVs, head on over to Automobile Magazine for a full fuel economy breakdown for the segment. The controversially styled crossover hits dealers this month, and we'll be driving it in just a couple of weeks.
