1965 Jeep Cj-5 Tuxedo Park Iv, Dauntless V6, Overdrive, Fresh Frame Off Restore on 2040-cars
Kempton, Pennsylvania, United States
This is an incredibly restored 1965 Jeep CJ-5 Tuxedo Park Mark IV, Dauntless Buick V6, 3 speed and overdrive. The overdrive can be used in any gear, giving you 6 forward speeds if you want them. Powerlock differential front and rear. I am the first titled registered owner since it's restoration was completed in 2012. It was then delivered to a dealer in Connecticut and then purchased by me. I've owned it over one year. The restoration was done by Gary Abby, a long time Jeep enthusiast in Shippensburg, Pa. Mr. Abby told me the following, that he purchased the Jeep from the original owners grandson in Chambersburg PA but the Jeep originally came from West Virginia. The mileage is said to be original. The restoration was done to 1965 1/2 specs with every available option. The Buick V6 is vintage correct, (being made as an available option in Aug 65) It is a 66 block but not original to this particular Jeep. This Jeep came with an I4 but was upgraded during its recent restoration. The transmission is the original T90 but rebuilt with a new gear set and top shifter. The gears are angle cut for easier shifting and were special ordered from California. It has a Husky-Warn type overdrive which I personally had rebuilt by Herm the Overdrive Guy this summer. With the V6 and overdrive, you have no problem doing 65 on the highway, then get to dirt and crawl along in four low. That's pretty amassing for a 65 CJ. The Top is an aftermarket dealer installed option. I prefer this top over the factory one because the doors come off on pins for summer use, and you don't have to remove the whole top. I've put about 300-400 miles on the Jeep, so it's had a good shakedown. There are no problems with this Jeep. I do not, however drive it any any inclement whether. My dad had one of these when I was a kid, hence my purchase, but I'd hate to drive in on our salted northeastern roads, it's just too nice to drive and mess up, so I decided to sell it. I'll consider up or down trades too. I'm mostly interested classic, vintage or special edition motorcycles, maybe also Pontiac muscle cars, 66-69 Buick Rivieras and classic rear wheel drive Cadillacs. No projects or customs. The hubcaps are said to be NOS, possibly worth some dough, but I'm not sure they're correct, or at least, I don't have the trim rings. I do have a restored matching rear jump seat, but this was not correct for the Tuxedo Park model which has padded wheel wells. You can install the rear Jeep seat if you want, but have to drill holes in a brand spanking new floor for a non-original seat. I did not do this. There also are more pix on photobucket. Search there for user dnaj11 or email me for link, or to make an appointment to see the Jeep. I'll be happy to send you or take more photos if you need them.

Jeep Renegade to show off new Mopar gear in Detroit
Sun, Jan 11 2015Jeep's adorable new Renegade is arriving in the US market soon (we're looking forward to driving it in a couple weeks), and to highlight that fact, the American off-road brand is trotting out a pair of Mopar-modified compact CUVs for the 2015 North American International Auto Show. Rather simply, Jeep has modified one Renegade to show off its prowess in the city, and another that plays up the crossover's off-road abilities. Despite their different purposes, both vehicles show off Mopar's parts catalog and Jeep's Authentic Accessories lineup for the new baby Jeep. The Urban Renegade borrows uses a Renegade Limited with Anvil paint as its base and draws from the Accessories catalog, adding a number of Omaha orange accents and satin black wheels. Mopar donated a bike-hauling trailer hitch to the rear of the Renegade, while its cabin features Katzkin leather-lined seats. Once again, Omaha orange accents brighten up the Limited's cabin. As for the off-road model, Mopar got a bit more involved, starting with the Renegade Trailhawk and adding satin black wheels with Colorado red trim and X-shaped graphics, borrowed from military jerry cans, to the Commando Green exterior. A number of prototype and one-off body mods were fitted to the Trailhawk, including a concept skid plate, rock rails and a new rear valence. Inside, Katzkin leather was applied to the Renegade's seats while the Omaha orange accents from the Urban Renegade have been replaced with Commando Green bits and bobs in the off-road model. Look for more on these new Renegade twins come Monday, when we hit the floor of the 2015 Detroit Auto Show. Until then, check out the official press release from Mopar.

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky
Fri, 24 Aug 2012It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.
