Phoenix, Arizona, United States
|
For sale is this super awesome Black on Black 1974 CJ5 Renegade. This is a RARE Black paint with Black stripe Renegade. I have never seen a black with black stripe CJ. The stripes look white in pictures because they are faded. I have tried to find pics of a black with black stripe renegade and cannot find any. I would love to see an original AMC pic of one. If you have one please send to me. This Also has owner Made chrome front bumper and rear bumperettes. Had Chrome mirrors, wheels and headers back in the day..... Man she was a looker! and POWERFULL! This original CJ has a factory v8 304 with a 3 speed and heavy duty Renegade springs. The previous owner parked it in 1983 right after he had a new clutch put in and trans rebuilt. The clutch linkage fell out and that is where he left it for 31 years!!! I pulled it right from that spot. I put all new clutch linkage, radiator, alternator, water pump, starter, battery, battery cables, shackles, bushings, rancho shocks, fender flares, steering wheel, master cylinder for brakes, rebuilt brakes as needed, rebuilt the 4BBL carter carb. It also has a rare Edelbrock SP2-P intake. New sidepipes, seats, seat slider (drivers) and water temp and oil pressure gauge. I installed a new gas tank and all fuel lines and new fuel pump. I also found the correct 5 slot wheels and put 32x11.50x15 BFG All Terrains on it. There is no spare tire carrier, I have been looking for the correct one. (If you are reading this and have the correct one you would like to sell, please contact me. It has to have the kickout for the upper reinforcement channel at top of back panel). There is also a older but very good shape Kayline soft top included in the deal and the original and VERY rare dash pad. This jeep has all the correct emblems, the original Jeep key, and extra custom made under seat gas tank. This tank will need to be hooked back up, there is a front/rear gas tank valve on driver floor that is frozen. The original gas tank skid plate is also included, but is rusted. She has all original lenses, lights, uncut dash and aftermarket old school roll cage. The body has original paint and stripes. There is NO rust through on floors, Only small pitting. There is bubbling on passenger side under door (look at pic) and next to taillights (look at pic). This jeep is as original unrestored as I could keep it and still make it drivable. The previous owner said he had "some high performance motor work done to it" he could not remember or tell me what..... but SHE MOVES!!! very strong and always brings a grin to your face. The sound of the side pipes and the hurst handle, sooooo cool. If you love CJ's and into Patina and love to set off car alarms when you drive by..... THIS IS YOUR CJ! Obviously I can't say enough about this CJ. Only in AZ do you get that perfect Patina with out being rusted out. Drives like a 74 CJ should. Stops like it has 4 wheel drum brakes, and has more power than a short wheelbase CJ should. I have invested quite a bit of time and money into bringing her back to life. This is NOT a Jeep for a 16 year old driver. I have had more than a few Dads want to buy my jeeps for their 16 year old kids. This IS NOT ONE OF THEM. IF you have driven a early CJ you know what I mean. I restore Jeep for a living and have sold all over the US and overseas. This Jeep has a Clean and clear Arizona "A" title. It is even the small OLD 1978 title that is still in the second owners name (it is open and ready for your name) Shipping is up to the buyer. Please quote from 85027. I will deliver the Jeep to any automotive carrier in the Phoenix valley at no charge to the buyer. I require a 250.00 Non refundable deposit with in 24hrs of the end of auction. I will accept Pay-Pal for this part only. The remainder of the amount due is to be paid by Cashiers Check, Bank Check or (the easiest way) Wire transfer. I keep a account open at Wells Fargo just for this purpose. It is painless and easy. As soon as the money clears I will Fed Ex the title to you and we can set up delivery of your CJ. It is also available for pickup if you desire. This is a AMAZING early gen Renegade. Perfect for the collector or jeep lover. I really hate to sell her but.....that's what I do. I REALLY wish I could keep this one for me, but I cannot, so she goes to the next Jeep nut. If you have any questions feel free to contact me 602.763.3505 DREW please view my web site. www.thejeepfarm.com I should have some updated pics on my site soon. (my web guy is on vacation) there is some pics of the "as found" condition, and Dennis the gentlemen I purchased it from (great guy) |

Total auto recalls already on record pace in 2014
Tue, 08 Apr 2014If you've noticed that there have been more recalls than usual this year, you may be on to something. According to a report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the US market is on pace to break a record for recalls. In 2013, 22 million cars were recalled. We're only a third of the way through 2014, though, and we've already halved that figure, with 11 million units recalled. That's wild.
Considering the past few months, it shouldn't be a surprise that General Motors is leading the charge, with six million of the 11 million units recalled coming from one of the General's four brands. Between truck recalls, CUV recalls and the ignition switch recall, 2014 hasn't been a great year for GM.
Other recall leaders include Nissan (one million Sentra and Altima sedans), Honda (900,000 Odyssey minivans), Toyota (over one million units in a few recalls), Volkswagen (150,000 Passat sedans), Chrysler (644,000 Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs) and most recently, Ford (434,000 units, the bulk of which were early Ford Escape CUVs). So while it's been a bad year for GM so far, its competitors aren't doing too well, either.
Jeep Grand Cherokee redesign delayed
Sat, Jun 27 2015The launch of the next-gen Jeep Grand Cherokee is being now being pushed back until late 2018 or even into 2019, Jeep CEO Mike Manley indicated Friday, according to Automotive News citing a Reuters report. Under the original five-year plan, the SUV was supposed to be replaced in the third quarter of 2017. That would have made for a big year for Jeep with a refreshed Renegade and new Wrangler also slated for 2017. A delayed Grand Cherokee could send ripples through Jeep's product plans. The three-row Grand Wagoneer is meant to give the brand a vehicle to take on the Land Rover Range Rover, but it's supposed to use the same platform as the Grand Cherokee. This change is rumored to push that important model's launch further back. There's less uncertainty when it comes to the next-gen Wrangler. Manley said that the model was "broadly on track," according to Automotive News. The five-year plan aimed for a launch in the second quarter of 2017. Controversy, however, has swirled over possible plans to move the Wrangler from its longtime Toledo, OH, factory. One problem Jeep doesn't have to worry about right now is sales. According to Automotive News, Manley said volume was up 20 percent globally and could reach 1.2 million by the end of the year. He also indicated the brand was "on pace" to reach its 1.9-million-vehicle goal for 2018. The Grand Cherokee delay comes in the wake of rumors that FCA US is shuffling around its previous five-year vehicle launch plan to postpone several models. Related Video:
Build a Jeep Gladiator 392 next? The Hummer H3T Alpha blazed the trail
Tue, Nov 17 2020The 2021 Wrangler Rubicon 392 will combine the go-anywhere capability of a Jeep's iconic off-roader with the grunt of a V8 for the first time in decades. As cool as that is, we can't help but think Jeep is missing out on a huge opportunity to pair that 470-horsepower, 6.4-liter Hemi V8 with the Wrangler's pickup cousin, the Jeep Gladiator, in the form of a Mojave 392. Autoblog took part in a media Q&A session with Jeep ahead of the Rubicon 392's announcement in which the company's product higher-ups said that there are currently no official plans to build a 392 variant of the Gladiator pickup. But whether or not Jeep has plans, it certainly has precedent, and from our perspective, a market. Rewind to 2008, better known as one of the worst possible years to introduce a gas-guzzling, V8-powered pickup truck. Enter the 2009 Hummer H3T Alpha, the first variant of Hummer's midsize truck/SUV hybrid to be offered with a 5.3-liter V8. The 300-horsepower small-block was an upgrade to the sturdy but relatively uninspiring 3.7-liter inline-5 that the H3 lineup had inherited from its midsize pickup platform mates. As our Jeremy Korzeniewski noted in the Rubicon 392's introductory piece, an open-top Jeep has not been offered with an optional V8 for as long as the "Wrangler" nameplate has existed. The last Jeep 4x4 to do so was still a CJ, or civilian Jeep, and the 304 cubic-inch engine came from American Motors Corporation. Incidentally, this generation of the Wrangler is also the first to be offered in a pickup variant. Cue the beard-stroking. Now, frankly, it's not even remotely fair to compare the H3T's powertrain offerings to the decade-newer Gladiator's, but the Hummer actually boasts a few advantages over Jeep's modern pickup. While most of the Jeep's off-road specs give it an edge, the Gladiator doesn't come close to the H3T's 30.1-degree departure angle, for instance. And in more practical terms, the stubbier H3T has other maneuverability advantages. The Gladiator has 3" of wheelbase and 5" of overall length on the H3T, and a 22.4-foot turning radius to show for it. The Hummer's? Just 18.5'.
