1986 Jeep CJ7, 292 I-6, 5-speed, 44k-miles, original

1JCCF87E3GT0291071986

 

This is a rust-free, honest, and very original Jeep CJ7.  I bought this in November 2009 from a seller in Arizona.  I am the third owner – the first owner had it from 1986 to 2009 in Belmont, California, and the second owner had it from June 2009 to November 2009 in Tucson, Arizona.  I have some service records from the original owner and the second owner to prove the low mileage.

 

It’s a base model CJ7, but it’s got a lot of options:

·        Original factory AMC radio (still works)

·        Original factory AC (still works!)

·        Power steering

·        Power brakes

·        Tilt steering wheel

·        Factory 20 gallon optional fuel tank

·        Original paint

·        Original interior

 

I bought it as a neighborhood runaround toy – it’s never left the city in my possession.  I’ve never off-roaded it; it’s never been mudding.  Since I bought it, I have replaced all the fluids, installed new shocks, replaced the plastic valve cover with the metal version (still have the plastic one), just bought new BFGs, and installed the full-length bikini top.

 

In the three years I’ve owned it, it’s been amazingly reliable.  It always starts; it idles well, it doesn’t leak, the AC works, it drives/stops straight, and the steering is as tight as CJ can be.  I’ve never had to do anything to it because it’s never needed a thing.  I own a few old classics, and this one has been the easiest thing I’ve ever owned.

 

The biggest issue with this Jeep is cosmetic – the original owner apparently “laid it over” at some point.  If you look through the pictures, you can see the damage to the front fender, near the windshield mount, the doorway, and on the body at the left rear.  The CJ was not repainted to repair the damage – you can still see it as I got it.

 

This CJ does not have doors or a hardtop (I never had either). 

 

The title is clear and in my name.  I’m selling because I have a four-car garage and six cars.  Something has to go – besides, my boys are getting older and we just don’t use this CJ for weekends like we used to.  I am of the camp that if you don’t drive it, you ought to sell it.  It’s located in a hangar on the west side of Houston.

 

It's got a reasonable reserve and I won't sell outside of the auction - I'd rather let it ride.

Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).

Jeep's new Chip Away commercial has us hunting Al Pacino's back catalog

Tue, 19 Feb 2013

Chrysler has done a pretty good job as of late turning its television commercials into pep talks or rallying cries, but for its first ad for the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee, it turned to Al Pacino's inspirational speech from the movie Any Given Sunday. In the movie, Pacino's character talks about how football is a game of inches, but the commercial, titled Chip Away, focuses more on the attention to detail that Jeep has exhibited on its updated flagship SUV.
Centering around the newest Grand Cherokee model, the luxurious $47,995 Summit trim level, the commercial shows off some of the hand-stitched leathers and real metal and wood accents found inside the cabin. Check out the new 60-second spot by scrolling below.
