1970 Cj5 4x4 Fiberglass Body With Plow No Reserve on 2040-cars

Year:1970 Mileage:0

No Reserve- highest bid gets it!  This is a very good CJ5 that I use strictly for plowing.  It has a rebuilt F-134 4-cylinder engine, although I have no idea when it was rebuilt or how many miles or hours are on it.  It runs very strong, but does burn some oil.  It starts every time and runs very well.  It has a rebuilt carburetor, new fuel pump, new battery, new plugs, new wires, new cap, new coil, and has been converted to electronic ignition.  The lights work, and so does the heater… although no top or doors are included.  I only used it for plowing, and have never driven it on the road.  It would need some work to be road worthy, so plan on trailering it home.  The brakes could use some attention, and  the transmission may have a syncro out or something because it only goes into first and reverse gears.  I haven’t looked into it because I didn’t need 2nd or 3rd gears anyway.  I do have another transmission that will go with the Jeep, however I know nothing about the condition of it.  The 4-wheel drive works and I have brand new Mile Marker hubs for it, only one set is installed.  The other lockout on it is the original Warn and still works just fine.  The tires are newer Bridgestone Blizzak’s and show virtually no wear.  The plow is a Western 6’-6” I believe, and has the cylinders for angling it however they are not hooked up.  You have to manually angle the plow right now, but they could be made to work.  I have some hardware for that.  The up and down cylinder works as it should.  The body is fiberglass, except for the steel hood and windshield frame.   The CJ is pretty in its own way, and gets a lot of attention from the plow guys with newer trucks.   Please ask any questions before bidding.  If you’re local, I encourage you to come take a look at it.  It’s a plow vehicle and it would need “A LOT” of work to restore it.  Clear Michigan title in my name.

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.

Jeep Renegade pricing to start at $18,595?

Fri, 14 Mar 2014

While there's no shortage of excitement surrounding the new Jeep Renegade, one of the limiting factors to the little trucklet will be its price. With the Kia Soul starting at $14,900 and the Nissan Juke kicking off at $18,990, the Renegade can't afford to stray away from that price bracket.
And judging by some potentially leaked pricing info, it won't. A quick Google search of "Jeep Renegade Price" reveals (at least for now) that the Italian-built Jeep will start at $18,595. The "as shown" price of $25,895 seems to indicate the Trailhawk model shown on Jeep's consumer page.
If the $18,595 figure is correct, it's likely for the base, two-wheel-drive Sport model, with the Latitude and Limited trims falling somewhere between there and the $25,895 as-equipped price of the Trailhawk.

NHTSA closes investigation into Jeep Liberty fires

Sun, 16 Mar 2014

The investigation that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened into the Jeep Liberty in October 2013 has been closed. NHTSA received two (!) complaints about fires starting in the driver's door, thought to be caused by the master power window switch. The initial estimate was that 80,000 Libertys could be roped into a possible recall, but according to a report in the Detroit News the agency examined records for 425,000 Chrysler products that used the same window switch, including the Dodge Nitro and Chrysler Town & Country minivan.
After canvassing 265 warranty claims related to the master switches, NHTSA concluded that the rate of fires compared to the "large population of vehicles" was rather low, and that there was no trend pattern behind the few issues it did find. Perhaps with that, and the closure of the trailer hitch investigation, the Liberty can finally rest in peace.
