1987 Jeep Grand Wagoneer - Ca Car Now In Mw (storage) on 2040-cars
Chicago, Illinois, United States
Why am I selling? Bought it to tow an Airstream that I've since sold. I have two other JGW's, and want to buy more, so need to make room. This Jeep spent its entire life in California, before I shipped it back to the Midwest to restore. Body and Paint: This original Jeep retains its original body and paint from the factory. All of the panels are rust free because of its SoCal ownership history. The paint is amazing for its age and still holds a very high shine and gloss. There isn't any evidence of previous paint touch up anywhere on the vehicle. The vinyl and trim were replaced, I used 1" trim. The door jambs and sills even are in great condition are free of any wear marks. The driver’s door jamb still retains the factory vehicle info decal with vin number and other vehicle information. Trim and Chrome: The exterior trim and chrome are all intact and original to the vehicle. All trim holds a nice high quality chrome shine and free of any pitting. Engine and Transmission: The engine is the original 360 V-8 that the Jeep was built with and holds good oil pressure and runs nice and cool. The engine compartment is all original with factory emission tag, data tag and factory markings still in place. The transmission operates flawlessly and shifts nice and crisp as it should. The 4x4 switch operates properly as well as the 4x4 low. This GW runs nice and smooth with a quiet ride. The exhaust system is in great condition also and does not need any work. I installed a Holly fuel pump to overcome the chronic Jeeps have. I had all fluids (radiator, oil, transfer case, differential) replaced. I installed an heavy duty radiator and trailer hitch. Brakes were rebuilt last year. Interior: The leather seats would pass for a vehicle with 80,000 miles. I put a new headliner in a year ago. The carpet is the original deep shag and is in great condition with a few small wear areas. The door panels do not have any marks on them and fit like they did day one. The dash, gauges, steering wheel, horn button, door handles, wood trim accents and balance of the interior are all in great original condition and have never been altered in any way. Stereo is a Sony AM/FM with CD player. I do have the original radio in a box that the Jeep was delivered with and that will go to the next owner. Glass and Mirrors: From what I have observed the glass is all original. There aren’t any chips or stars in the windshield. The side glass has had a minor tint applied because of its southern ownership history and I believe that aided in preserving the interior from sun fade and heat. The rear power glass window in the tailgate operates correctly from either the dash mounted button or key function. This Jeep has the power mirror option for both drivers side and passenger side and they operated smooth and quiet. Wheels and Tires: All of the wheels are original and are in very nice condition. They have the correct center caps and lug nuts. The tires are high quality Hankook tires have <15K on them. Terms of Sale: I am selling the Jeep “as is” because vehicles of this age are. If you have the opportunity to see and drive this GW before the auction period expires, then I invite you to do so to truly appreciate the originality and excellent condition of this vehicle. I have offered a buy it now option to end the auction early and buy the Jeep. I have compared my buy it now price with comparable GW’s in this condition and feel it is very well priced. |

Stellantis and Foxconn's new joint venture will focus on connectivity
Wed, May 19 2021MILAN — Carmaker Stellantis and TaiwanÂ’s Foxconn announced plans to develop a jointly operated automotive supplier focusing on technology to make vehicles more connected, including artificial intelligence-based applications and 5G communications. Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares said the services that will be developed through the tie-up “will mark the next great evolution of our industry,” alongside fully electrified and hybrid powertrains. The deal brings together Stellantis, the worldÂ’s 4th-largest automaker formed this year by the merger of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and PSA Peugeot, and Foxconn, a major supplier of iPhones. The companies said the venture would focus on such services as infotainment, the integration of telecommunications and computer systems, artificial intelligence-based applications, 5G communications, e-commerce channels and smart cockpit integration. The companies announced a non-binding memorandum of understanding to form a 50-50 joint venture called Mobile Drive, which will be based in the Netherlands and function as an automotive supplier also to other carmakers. The new venture will combine advanced consumer electronics, Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI) to create new services “that will exceed customer expectations,” the companies said in a release. “Customers today and, in the future, demand and expect ever-increasing software-driven and creative solutions to connect the drivers and passengers with the vehicle inside and out,Â’Â’ Foxconn Chairman Young Liu.

Marchionne defends FCA recalls, says Wrangler won't be all-aluminum
Fri, May 22 2015FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne recently received the 2015 Industry Leadership Award from the SAE Foundation. While speaking with the press after the event, the boss discussed his thoughts about some key issues regarding the company's future. One of the big regulatory issues facing FCA at the moment is the upcoming public hearing by the National Highway Traffic Safety into the automaker's handling of 20 recalls. Marchionne has no intention of testifying there, according to The Detroit News. The CEO also thinks that the government regulator is becoming much more aggressive in how it handles safety campaigns, but the Feds aren't necessarily doing a very good job of communicating that. "We need to work with the agency in a very cooperative and open way to make sure that we can meet their requirements for their new stance," he said, according to the newspaper. "We have no option but to comply with their requirements and we will. I have nothing to hide in this process. I just want clear rules." Marchionne also dropped the news that the company has changed its mind about making the next Jeep Wrangler totally from aluminum. "Because of the difference in cost, not just the new material but the actual assembly process, I think we can do almost as well without doing it all-aluminum," he said to The Detroit News. This seemingly opens the door for the model to remain in production in Toledo, OH, but only just a crack. Marchionne says that the new Wrangler would still use a large amount of aluminum, and there are "at least" two sites in contention for the assembly. The company doesn't have too long to make a decision because the model reportedly launches in 2017.
