Well it is a sad day but time to part with the old Jeep. Just don't get the use out of her anymore. Bought 7 years ago and have put lots of time into her and now time to pass on to someone who will appreciate her. Was an ex-show jeep when wife and I built 7 years ago then became a daily driver for a while and has sat in garage since winter and just haven't done much with her anymore and is now suffering from neglect. Please take time to read entire listing and look at all pics. before bidding.

The Bad: Like I said jeep has sat in garage since winter and last few years and winters of daily driving has taken toll on old girl. Frame was repaired  some time ago and done right but has developed a couple new spots on side of frame size of silver dollar that will need attention. It is not going to break in half  by any means but will been repaired. I have included pics. of damage. Brakes are spongy and was low on fluid. Think wheel cylinder is leaking. Drove around town and steering is a little sloppier then I remember. Always a little sloppy as it is a Jeep.... Whole jeep could use a once over as it has sat around the last couple years and probably only had 500 miles put on it in that time. Great jeep but want to be honest with condition. It is also titled as a 96 ASM(assembled) Jeep due to the replacement fiberglass body. I have never had any issues with licensing or insuring but want you to be aware in case your state is different.. It is technically an 1980 narrow track CJ7 but Title shows 1996 and matches vin on firewall. It has Clear WV title Everything works on lights , heater wipers, etc. it but the radio quit. was coming and going and now wont come on.

The good: Well it is a Jeep!!! It is an all Fiberglass CJ 7. Only steel is the grill, Hood fenders, windshield frame and tub are fiberglass and good quality. Paint still decent but could use repaint.  My wife painted it 7 years ago and rhino lined entire interior at same time.. It has a mild built Chevy 350 Chevy 4 bolt main engine with approx. 50,000 miles on it. has small crane cam, Edelbrock intake and carb. Accel distributor and coil, headers, dual side pipes and lots of accessories. Transmission is an  Chrysler TF 999 automatic with an Advanced adapter  kit to mount to Chevy engine with approx. 20,000 miles on it. has Dana  300 transfer case with dana 30 front and AMC model 20 rear. All stock along with suspension. Newer Bf Goodrich 31"  MT tires. Also has spacers on front and rear to give it wider stance. We built it with intentions of riding back country roads and have never mudded it. It has power steering and still has manual brakes. It has had LOTS of new parts over the years and will give you a rundown.

In last 2-3 years or less. Bestop Top & doors, seats, rims, tires. Aluminum radiator, water pump starter Alternator, Optima battery, Tie rod ends ,ball joints, u joints, brakes, P/S pump, shocks, greasable shackles, roll bar, cover, bikini top, Halo head lights, amp, speakers, stereo, numerous accessories and chrome..... sure I am missing more. I have put a lot of time and money and just am where I don't have time to keep her at the level she should be or interest. Thought about just parting out but don't have heart to tear apart so Figured I would see if I could find a g0od home on here for her. Like I said I have had for 7+years and hard to part with. Thought about selling or trading for old hot rod or Big Harley or something interesting local but the wife doesn't want to see it running around town so here I am!!

Auction terms are as follows. Deposit due of $200. due in 24 hours. rest due in 7 days. You are responsible for pickup or shipping. Would recommend trailering as brakes are stopping but spongy. Up to you. She runs good but due for oil change and tune up and once over from sitting. If you are new to Ebay or got feedback under 10. Please shoot me a message to let me know you understand that if you bid and win you own it. Want this to sell first time with no BS. There is a reserve. Nothing close to what I have in it but fair I think. Bid to find out. I know value of it as I have owned many. Not looking to get rich and know she needs some loving but not giving it away. I can part out worse case and make what I need  to be happy. Thanks for taking time to read all this. I am honest with description and tried to give you all info. Feel free to ask questions  if you need more info.or if you need another pic. Clear title in my name and currently inspected till Nov. of this year. Happy to help. Please only Bid if serious and have CASH.  Have a great day!!

Jeep mulling power top for next Wrangler

Fri, 07 Mar 2014

Jeep is hard at work on the next-generation Wrangler, though the truck is still a few years from hitting the trails. The new model will still be aimed at off-roaders, but rumors suggest it will be a little more comfortable than previous versions to appeal to more people.
According to Road and Track, Jeep is developing a power-retractable top as an expensive option for the Wrangler. There is no word if the top in question is a sliding canvas rollback like the ones found on many European vehicles or a full convertible hardtop or softtop, nor do we know whether it would be made available on two- or four-door models. It might be a nice feature for some buyers but would certainly add complexity to a truck already known for its ruggedness. We asked Jeep for confirmation, but Jeep spokesperson Todd Goyer could only remind us that the company "can't comment about future products."
In news that is likely to irk the faithful, R&T reports the next model may also ditch its folding windshield for improved safety and possibly even get rid of its rear-mounted, full-size spare tire. The new Wrangler won't go completely soft, though, and will reportedly still feature removable doors and solid axles.

This American Life spends a week selling Jeeps in Long Island

Thu, 19 Dec 2013

So you think you know car dealers? Well, maybe you do, but This American Life spent a month at Town and Country Jeep Chrysler Doge Ram in Long Island to give us a behind-the-scenes look (or listen, since it's a radio program) at what it's like to be a car dealer.
Yes, there's a lot of swearing in thick New York accents, frustration, confusion, and generally it's a madhouse at the dealership. But that's understandable when the sales staff has to sell 129 vehicles in October in order to get an $85,000 manufacturer bonus - with several other Jeep dealerships within a 10-mile radius.
The episode, 129 Cars, is worth a listen, but make sure you have 71 minutes to spare if you want to get through it in one sitting. Head here for the unedited version or here for the bleeped version (which is 58 minutes long).

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.
