I'm selling a 1950's styled Jeep CJ3A stainless steel body that was hand made in the Philippines.  The body has never been on the road, and is in great shape, it's worth $4500 alone without all of the extra parts.  This is a project vehicle and will have to be towed on a trailer.  It is not rolling currently.  It has a 350 c.i. small block Chevy and an auto trans. with a Lokar shifter completely mounted.  It is air bagged and has a Ridetech kit that has the pump, tank, valves, air gauges, switches, wiring harness and air lines.  The rear end is completely set up, but the front end isn't welded in, have all of the parts to set it up, including air bags, mounting brackets, new reverse Corvair steering box, new U-joint, and Corvair pitman arm.  As far as engine parts, I have polished single belt crank pulley and water pump pulley, polished single wire 100 amp GM alternator, polished valve covers, Eldebrock Preformer EPS intake, Summit Racing Street and Strip 750cfm Carb, polished 45 water neck, and stainless steel headers.  I also have Auto Meter Street Rod series gauges.  These parts are brand new and a lot of them were sealed in the box until I took them out to take pictures of everything, and were put back in the box.  This is a very nice ride and most of the hard work is already done, and most of the expensive parts are there to finish it. The frame is completely done, just needs either painted or powder coated.  I also have the top of the windshield frame and the original windshield that goes with it. I know it needs a driveshaft and a steering column.  It does NOT come with a title, I know it says clear, but it doesn't have an option of no title.  I am selling this due to my dad passing away, this was his project and I don't have the skills to finish it.  DO NOT ASK IF I WILL TAKE LESS OR BREAK IT UP.  The starting price is the lowest I will take, so don't ask.  If you have any questions or would like to come look at it, plese call me at 304-444-0814.

Jeep Comanche Moab Concept: Hell yeah!

Mon, Mar 28 2016

The moment I saw the Jeep Renegade I knew it was a winner, at least in terms of styling. The Renegade's "face" is exactly what small 21st-century Jeeps should look like. It has loads of Jeep's visual heritage DNA – important! – that has been brought up-to-date in the best possible way. (Now if only they could graft that face on to the new-ish Cherokee...). Where the Renegade falls short is what's under the skin. Thanks to misguided marketing, it is saddled with a rather unremarkable USA-spec 2.4L four, undersized tires, so-so ground clearance, an iffy 9-speed automatic, and a questionable (available) low range. I don't mind the independent suspension; in fact I embrace it, as IFS/IRS is the future in terms of off-road suspension design. So, for me, the Renegade is a close-but-no-cigar vehicle, at least as it currently stands. This new Comanche, however, shows how the Renegade can evolve; both as a 4-door SUV, and in terms of how spin-off models can be developed. Big beefy tires, flared out fenders, and great ground clearance are the main ingredients that make this work visually. Still wish for a 3.6L V6 under the hood, but the 2.0L diesel isn't a bad alternative. Anyway, I think a Comanche pickup makes more sense than the predicted Wrangler-based pickup. Why? I'm not big on retro-vehicles in general. Rarely do they survive long term. Besides, the Comanche would be far more civilized and livable. I could see this Comanche pickup as a daily driver much more so than a Wrangler-based pickup. Yeah, I like and value creature comforts over ultimate off-road ability. I think most pickup buyers would agree. Finally, while there is a large devoted Wrangler following who would love a Wrangler-based pickup, I bet this Renegade-based Comanche would bring more new customers into the Jeep tent – especially over a much wider age demographic.

Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk set for New York debut

Thu, Mar 30 2017

The head of Jeep confirmed Wednesday that the brand will reveal its high-powered Grand Cherokee Trackhawk in April at the New York Auto Show. "That is going to be quite a special vehicle," Jeep boss Mike Manley said. "Very difficult for one not to smile." Speaking at an event at FCA US headquarters in Auburn Hills, MI, to preview the 2017 Easter Jeep Safari vehicles for Moab, he didn't provide further details. The Trackhawk has been expected to bow in New York, and the confirmation comes after months of rumors and spy shots. What's under the hood? The blown 6.2-liter Hemi Hellcat from the Charger and Challenger is the overwhelmingly obvious choice. The V8 engine makes 707 horsepower in the Dodges. The most potent current Grand Cherokee, the SRT model, is rated at 475 hp. Jeep also already sells a Grand Cherokee Trailhawk for off-road adventures. Meanwhile, Manley reiterated the next-generation Wrangler will debut by the end of the year, as expected. The New York show is shaping up to be a blockbuster event for FCA US, which will also debut the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon on the eve of the show next month. Related Video:
