Jeep Cj7 Renegade W/ Chevy 350 Conversion No Reserve 1983 on 2040-cars
Carrollton, Texas, United States
|
I have for auction AT NO RESERVE is this nice 1983 Jeep CJ7 with the Chevy 350 4bbl conversion. The list of amenities it has is quite long. If you would rather just look at the pics skip this section (tilt steering column, clock, tach, locking glove box door, side entry steps, padded steering wheel, 2 dash speakers, uncracked dash pad, custom retractable indash drawer for coins and small items, trailer hitch, padded roll bar, spare tire carrier, power steering, power brakes, 33" tires, Renegade decal kit, hard top, untorn factory seats, Custom rear seat with storage area, chrome exhaust tips, 20 gallon fuel tank, bikini top for summer. The floor boards are intact. Frame is in fine shape. Drive train is a Chevy 350 with a 4 bbl Holley 650cfm carb paired up with a Tremac T176 four speed transmission and new clutch parts. It has some chrome accessories as well. Dual exhaust. Gears are 3:31. I purchased it in '04 and I have around $16k invested in it. It's not a show Jeep and it does need some attention (mostly from sitting around in storage). I have mixed feelings about selling it but I just can't justify insuring and registering 3 vehicles for a 1 driver household. It was last registered in 2007 and was put in storage after that. It ran fine back then but now it needs the fuel system cleaned out and maybe the carb rebuilt b/c it runs a bit rough and the fuel filter keeps clogging up. The gas tank is poly so the problem is not rust but just dirt I guess. The rear diff is starting to leak. Brakes were replaced in 2004 and are perfectly fine. The front fender flares are no good as seen in the pic however I do have a new drivers side flare I will include. Tires still have the protective blue coating on the lettering. The top does have a small chip on the lip that sits on the body but that's all it is is a chip. The Jeep needs wiper blades. There is no radio or console in the vehicle. This would be a great opportunity for someone who is mechanical and has the time to attend to its imperfections, enjoy it for a while and then sell it off for a profit down the road. Ask questions before bidding. If I have failed to mention something it was not intentional. Please don't bid unless you're serious about owning the vehicle. I will help out where I can with shipping however buyer is financially responsible for shipping. A nonrefundable security deposit of $1000 is due within 24 hrs of auctions end. Payment in full is due within 14 days of auctions end but if you need more time to arrange for pickup something can be worked out. Local pickup is an option. I make no guarantees on this vehicle and it is being sold as is. I am going to try to make a video of it running and put it on youtube. AGAIN THIS IS A NO RESERVE AUCTION

Finding surfing spots in the UK is tough work, even in a Jeep
Sun, 06 Jul 2014You truly have to love surfing to practice the sport in the United Kingdom. The area isn't exactly teeming with warm beaches full of sunbathers, and absolutely no easy spots to find big waves. To be a UK surfer, you need to be a fearless adventurer, not to mention quite lucky. And driving a Jeep might help, too.
Surfers Oli Adams and Micah Lester are traveling around the British Isles in a Jeep Wrangler Overland trying to find the best surf spots out there. These guys don't fit the laid-back surfer stereotype, but that's because finding waves in the UK is hard work. They say that the waves at some of these spots only exist for about three hours every year when the current and winds are just right.
To find these surf spots, the Jeep's offroad capabilities are paramount. In some areas, as you'll see in the video, there isn't even a beach, just jagged rocks. It would be like the movie Endless Summer, that is, if it could start snowing at any moment. These guys are clearly dedicated to their sport.
Chrysler recalls 468,700 Jeep Grand Cherokees, Commanders over rollaway risk
Mon, 13 May 2013Chrysler has issued a recall covering a combined 469,000 units of the 2005-2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee and the 2006-2010 Jeep Commander (inset). Of that number, 295,000 are in the US, roughly 33,000 in Canada and Mexico and the remainder in other markets. It seems an electrical fault in the transfer case can allow the affected SUVs to shift into neutral on their own, while an Associated Press report says that Chrysler had "found cracks in a circuit board that turns the four-wheel-drive system on and off." The issue was discovered when an owner started his car remotely and it rolled away.
Chrysler is expected to begin notifying owners in June 2013, who can then take their cars to dealers. The dealer will reflash the final drive controller free of charge. There's a bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below with more information.
Toledo continues fight for Jeep Wrangler production, despite mayor's death
Thu, Feb 19 2015Where will the next-generation Jeep Wrangler be built? That's an open question, but it's one that the city of Toledo, OH desperately wants to be the answer to. The city suffered a major blow, though, with the death of Mayor Michael Collins earlier this month. Collins had been the city's biggest champion during talks with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, before suffering a fatal heart attack on Feb. 6. But Collins' tragic death isn't dampening the city's desire to carry on as the home of the Wrangler. "The mayor's passing is tragic. But on Monday, when I came to work, I knew exactly what I needed to do and exactly what needed to be done," the city's director of development, Matt Sapara, told the Detroit Free Press. According to the Freep, Sapara said Toledo and the state of Ohio have delivered an outline of a development plan that would give FCA the ability to buy an extra 100 acres to expand the factory. This is to help accommodate FCA's targeted output of 300,000 to 350,000 next-generation Wranglers, up from the 240,000 the factory can make now. "Our target in the proposal is to provide a way to increase the production capacity to a number that allows Fiat Chrysler to meet its business model," Sapara told the Freep, adding that the land could be available later this summer. FCA, meanwhile, has shown a somewhat ambivalent attitude towards Toledo production, with CEO Sergio Marchionne openly discussing the pros and cons of continuing to build the Wrangler south of the Michigan border. "We are going to take a very hard look at this without ignoring what these guys have done," Marchionne told the Free Press at last month's Detroit Auto Show, adding that he'd like to keep production there, provided the cost of retooling is comparable to relocating to another facility.
