 Up for auction is a 1985 Jeep CJ7 Hard Top 6 cylinder 4 speed manual. Unmolested. This is a frame on restoration. The majority of the vehicle is factory original with the exception of the paint, seats, shocks, and carpet.
The Good -
  • Mechanically sound and everything mechanical operates as it should. All gauges, bulbs, and switches work. Starts right up, goes down the road straight, and stops on a dime.
  • The seats are all brand new BestTop vinyl and the carpet is also brand new (ACC DuPont cut pile in black)
  • Only 77,500 original miles
  • 1985 Sanyo high power cassette deck (refurbished) and 6x9 speakers in Sound Wedge boxes. Original paper behind speaker openings in the dash.
  • Perfect windshield. Perfect original dash pad.
  • New Duralast battery.
  • Many new lines, hoses, bulbs, and belts. All fresh fluids.

Things to know -

  • A very tiny drip at the rear main seal. Maybe a drip a day.
  • All 5 tires have less than 500 miles on them, but they do not all match. The spare tire may very well be the original spare, a standard Goodyear Wrangler. Three of the tires on the ground are Goodyear Wrangler APT. The fourth tire on the ground is a Goodyear Wrangler SRA. I have not changed them because the new owner may have their own preference in tires and tire size. All are original size 235 75r15.
  • Just a little bit of surface rust barely showing on the front fenders behind the tires (typical spot). It's not getting any worse is isn't very noticeable. Any other rust appears to have been removed or repaired. There is a new floor on the drivers side. I have another brand new one piece replacement but it isn't really needed at this time.
  • The paint is not original. It shines up very well with very few scratches, but there are a couple of little paint runs on those front fenders. The hard top has been painted black with texture. There is a spot on the very top where that paint peeled and was touched up. There is some over-spray from the new paint on the rear bumper that could probably be buffed off or have the bumper repainted, and a little bit on the edges of the dash.. I have new "Jeep" front fender stickers to go with it (paid $50) in case the new owner wants to clean up those fenders. I don't think that is worth doing yet.
  • I have all 5 chrome wheels, 4 are on the ground. The current spare wheel is a white factory wheel with a BestTop tire cover over it. The fifth chrome wheel would need to be polished and then mounted, but does come with this.
  • Needs rear seat belts.

This is a frame on restoration. It's not perfect but it needs very little and is suitable to be a daily driver. The paint job isn't perfect, but it's not too bad either. The frame is super solid without any rust at all. The underside has been painted and lightly undercoated. This Jeep went from Florida, to Kansas City, to Eastern Nebraska just a year or two ago which is why there is only very minor surface rust.

Please ask questions or come and see it. Message me and we can talk on the phone if you like. You need to ask questions! More pictures are available.

I will not deliver, but I will do my part on this end to help load or make it available for transport. For near locals, I may be able to meet you part way.

Only bid if you are serious and have the money to buy it.

A $1000 non-refundable deposit is due within 24 hours of end of auction. The remainder of the balance due must be paid within 7 days.

I do not need any help selling this vehicle and this is not a must sell situation.

Jeep is for sale locally so it could be removed at any time before reserve is met. Reserve is set for what I have in it.

No warranty of any kind. As is.

2014 Jeep Cherokee

Thu, 19 Sep 2013

The Cherokee Is Dead. Long Live The Cherokee.
There are three sentences that, for this reviewer, define what needs to be conveyed about the 2014 Jeep Cherokee. The first: it is very good.
Jeep spent 27 years building the Cherokee and its brand, from 1974 to 2001. Twelve years ago, the Cherokee nameplate rolled away into the distant hills and retirement, at least here in the NAFTA colonies, and it was replaced by a loaded word we knew as "Liberty."

2014 Jeep Cherokee flaunts its new contemporary curves

Wed, 27 Mar 2013


Only slightly more than one month ago, undisguised (and less-than-flattering) shots of the all-new 2014 Jeep Cherokee were leaked online. Later that day, in an effort to suppress the uprising, Jeep countered with its own official photography offering us much clearer front and three-quarter views. We've been left to digest those pictures for weeks.
Now, mere hours before the fabric comes sliding off its newest mid-size sport-utility at its live reveal at the New York Auto Show, Jeep has released dozens of new images showing all four corners, plus a few interior shots, of its new Cherokee.

Stellantis will enter joint venture with Samsung SDI for EV batteries

Tue, Oct 19 2021

SEOUL — South Korean battery maker Samsung SDI Co Ltd and global automaker Stellantis NV have agreed to jointly produce electric vehicle (EV) batteries for the North American market, a person familiar with the matter said on Tuesday. Samsung SDI, an affiliate of South Korean tech giant Samsung Electronics, already has EV battery plants in South Korea, China and Hungary, which supply customers such as BMW and Ford. "The two companies (Samsung SDI and Stellantis) have struck a MOU (memorandum of understanding) to produce EV batteries for North America," the person with knowledge of the matter told Reuters. The source spoke of condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the matter. The person said the location of the battery joint venture is under review and will be announced later. In July, Reuters reported that Samsung SDI may build a battery plant in the United States, citing a company source. South Korea's Yonhap news agency earlier reported the two companies plan to build a factory in the United States, citing industry sources. Samsung SDI and Stellantis did not have immediate comment when reached by Reuters. Stellantis on Monday struck a preliminary deal with battery maker South Korea's LG Energy Solution (LGES) to produce battery cells and modules for North America. Shares of Samsung SDI were up 2.6% as of 0300 GMT, versus a 0.6% rise in the KOSPI benchmark index.
