1969 Jeep Wagoneer Kaiser Era. Rare Series 1, Cj, Willys, Original Suv,collector on 2040-cars
Phoenix, Arizona, United States
|
1969 Jeep (Kaiser) Wagoneer. Very desirable Series 1. Avocado Mist Green. Rebuilt but original Buick 350 (For those of you that don't know, Kaiser used Buick motors in the jeeps they produced). Stock rebuild with 2 BBL carb 230HP and 350FTLBS torque. Has electric fan installed. Turbo 400 trans (rebuilt) and Dana 20 transfer case. Stock axles with 3.73 gears and Power drum brakes. Very original body with a repaint in the past. The clearcoat is faded and has the perfect patina. There is a small amount of rust behind the rear tires. Please look at pics. The floors are solid only having some pitting which was sanded and treated with rust dissolver then painted. The interior is amazing. All original dashboard with am radio (not working). New carpet and custom floor mats. Interior Lights work, heat, fan etc. Rear seat is original, only the front seat has been upholstered with new foam and springs. However I did reuse some of the original material on the seat back to make it match the rear. I also made custom rear compartment panels with access doors and a light and 12V outlet. The door panels are in amazing shape only requiring a lower kick panel carpet (also custom made). The original headliner is also 98% perfect. The rear window is power. It works great going down, but does require some help getting back up. The suspension has been lifted 4" with New Alcan springs (one of the best in the business) and longer shackles in front. All new Rancho shocks and steering stabilizer. I mounted a set of original (my personal stash) Kelsey Hayes 15x9 Wheels. These are the early production riveted ones. They have been sand blasted and powder coated white. They have a new set of 31x10.50x15 Falken Radials. I did have to run 1.5 billet wheel spacers to clear the brakes. For safety I welded in longer wheel studs on all 4 corners. You can tell at some point the drivers front tire had come loose and dented the fender. I ground out the bondo, used a body hammer and dolly, straitened the spot and never repainted it. I like the way it looks, however you people who live in rust areas will probably want to paint that spot. The previous owner did install a later model Wagoneer roof rack. I personally don't like it on this truck so I removed it. It will be included in the sale. There are bolts in the roof where it was mounted. They do not leak, but they are there (so you know). The motor and drivetrain are all stock other than a 2.5" custom exhaust with a Flowmaster muffler. Has a great sound. Not to loud but sounds like a 70's Buick muscle car. This Wagoneer gets thumbs up everywhere I go. I do love the patina. However I am offering this up for sale pre-paint and body. I do have a set of lower rear quarter replacement panels that I will include with the sale if the buyer wants them. This Jeep runs great!! drives smooth and strait. Sounds awsome and the trans shifts firm. The 4WD works great also. She is a Blast to cruise in and take four wheeling!! It has been in the desert many times!! Has the paint and scratched to prove. However it does have DRUM brakes. They are powered but still stops like a drum brake vehicle. BJ's Offroad does offer a disk brake conversion for the front brakes. If you think that this is something you would like, we can figure a price for the parts and labor and I can install before shipping the vehicle. Please note that the underside has NOT been spray-bombed in black. This is original and unpainted and CLEAN!! There are also factory chalk marks on the side of dash and under hood!! The title reads 0 miles (yes zero). Typical Arizona DMV stuff. The odo reads 25k but no proof of mileage. She seems to be a LOW mileage rig, based on the interior and undercarriage. I am offering pre-paint for someone wanting that Patina look @ $9500.00 Add a green skirt hula dancer on the dash and a surfboard rack and your set!! I do restore Jeeps, I am not a dealer but more of a out of control hobbyist. Please look at my website. www.thejeepfarm.com or call 602.763.3505 DREW Shipping is up to the buyer. I will deliver the Jeep to any shipping company in the Phoenix area at no charge. I do require a 500.00 non refundable deposit within 24 hrs of close of deal. I will accept paypal for the deposit only. Remainder of the payment must be in cashiers check, money order or we can set up a wire transfer into a temp account. The Jeep does not leave my possession until funds have cleared the account. I have sold and shipped Jeeps all over the US with great success. I have described this rare Wagoneer as best I can. It is a old Jeep so expect it to be so. BUT MAN WHAT A WONDERFULL JEEP!!! A true addition to anyone's collection. Please do not hesitate to call with any questions. I can also send pics of any areas you wish to see. Thanks again. Please look at my website and Call if you have any questions |

100,000 Jeep Cherokee models subject to further 9-speed recalibration
Thu, 29 May 2014It seems that the software problems with the nine-speed automatic gearbox in the Jeep Cherokee continue to mount. The programming already caused multiple development delays and even postponed the Cherokee's market launch by roughly two months. Now, Jeep has issued another recalibration to hopefully assuage unhappy drivers.
According to Automotive News, this reflash for the allegedly jerky transmission covers over 100,000 Cherokees built before May 5, but it's not technically a recall. If owners are having problems and complain to the dealer, they get the new software. Otherwise, they continue with the current version. New vehicles on dealer lots also receive the latest revision to the programming. It takes only around five minutes to install, but technicians need to take the Cherokee on a test drive to adapt the gearbox to the changes.
The Cherokee's transmission software has been problematic practically since the beginning. The Jeep plant in Toledo, OH, briefly idled its second-shift workers last year to take care of the issue. Since the launch issues for the crossover, demand has been strong. Jeep added another 1,000 temporary workers to the Toledo factory to keep up, and sales were on par with the Wrangler in just its first two months.
2nd annual Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards revealed
Tue, Jan 13 2015There was some absolutely fantastic auto advertising in 2014, ranging from funny to inspiring. Marking the best of it from the past year, the Second Annual One Show Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards were announced during the 2015 Detroit Auto Show (full disclosure: Autoblog was among the award's sponsors, and Editor-in-Chief Sharon Carty was a voter). Unlike previously, there were no brands with dominance over the list this time. Presented by The One Club, the awards have an international scope and hand out honors in a variety of categories. In the Broadcast TV group, there were three winners this year. First, there was The Scripted Life from Audi for the Q3 about breaking out of life's monotony. Also, Dad's Sixth Sense from Hyundai marketed the safety features in the Genesis. Finally, Unbreakable Drivers showed manly men being tested for the Toyota Hilux in Australia. The Online Video prize went to the fantastic The Epic Split spot from Volvo Trucks starring Jean-Claude Van Damme. The best Interactive ad was the Honda video titled The Other Side for the Civic Type R, and the Experiential Advertising nod was for the Volkswagen Eyes on the Road clip that showed the dangers of texting and driving to a theater full of moviegoers in Hong Kong. Finally, the Public Choice Award went to the BMW commercial called Hello Future using the words of sci-fi author Arthur C. Clarke for the i8. In the award not for videos, Jeep won the Print/Outdoor category for its Upside Down campaign. Check the ads out below, which show different animals when upside down. Also, look farther down for all of the winning videos and read their full announcements.

In partnership with the North American International Auto Show (www.naias.com) in Detroit, The One Club today unveiled the best automotive ads from around the world in five categories: broadcast TV, online video, interactive, experiential advertising, and print & outdoor. Winners will be presented on-stage at a special event during the NAIAS Press Preview on Tuesday, January 13, 2015, at the Cobo Center in Detroit at 4:55 p.m. The event is sponsored by AOL's Autoblog.
Fiat Chrysler target 850k sales in China by 2018
Sun, 11 May 2014Behind the vanguard of numerous Jeep models, two Chryslers, a smattering of Fiats and Alfa Romeos and local production through a joint venture with Guangzhou Automotive Group (GAG), Fiat Chrysler wants to increase sales in China more than six-fold by 2018. The group sold 130,000 cars in China in 2013, the aim for 2018 being 850,000 cars.
Ultimately it's expected that the Jeep Grand Cherokee, Cherokee, Wrangler, Renegade, the coming Grand Wagoneer and a sub-Renegade-sized crossover will either be built in or exported to the People's Republic. The Chrysler Town & Country and 300 will join the export list in 2016 and 2018 respectively, according to a report in Automotive News.
With a number of those vehicles not in production or perhaps even envisaged yet, and others not due on the local market until 2018, it will be interesting to see how Fiat Chrysler plans to achieve the target in the specified timeframe. The joint venture with GAG builds two products now, the Dodge Dart-based Fiat Viaggio launched two years ago - supposedly designed just for China - and the just-launched Fiat Ottimo, a hatchback version of the Viaggio. Fiat projected 300,000 Viagio sales in its first two years, that number has been adjusted downward to 94,000 and there doesn't appear to be an analyst alive that sees a good future for Fiat in China's overrun mainstream market. Still, last year's 130,000 group sales in China is a huge jump from 2012 sales of 66,000 units, but less than half the 300,000 units it projected.
