1975 Jeep Cj5 (304 V8) Lifted W/31" Tires & Tilt Steering on 2040-cars
Lompoc, California, United States
Hello & Thanks for Looking, Up for auction is my personal 1975 Jeep CJ5 V8 Softop. I bought this as a basket-case and have sorted through this truck to make a truly reliable and fun Jeep. I've gone through and replaced almost all of the electrical connectors from the front turn signals to the new LED brake lights and almost all the wiring between.There are no electrical gremlins, and the alternator charges incredibly quickly. I've been using this Jeep as my daily driver for some time, and the farthest I've driven it is 350 miles in one way (8hr trip) . This CJ5 starts the first time, every time. As life would have it, my wife and I are expecting our first child so the Jeep has to go. It's a real shame because I've spent so much time and money to get this Jeep to the way you see it today. The condition report should be read at the bottom for consideration. With a little paint, this could easily be a $20,000 truck, because everything mechanical has pretty much been done. Buyer must co-ordinate shipping if buyer requires freight, but I'm very to work with a shipping company if needed. The Main Features of this Jeep are: Engine -Stock 304 V8 w/2bbl Carb -Engine Runs Very Strong with Almost 40psi Oil Pressure at Startup -All engine wiring sorted out, and everything works and verified

Being over 40 years old, this CJ5 is in great mechanical shape. There are several nicks, and paint defects and with minimal rust (please see pictures). -This is a California truck, and has a current/clear CA title. The registration & plates will expire on 5/14/14, and will cost $19 to register after that date in CA. -The paint has been touched up, but it's an older metallic paint it is hard to match, but it is close. The hood has some clear coat damage, but still looks good. The cowl vent has a chrome blank panel installed, and the blue paint has chipped on the chrome. On the passenger/drivers side there are a couple bubbles under the paint near the jeep logo. -The transmission reverse gear synchros grind when going in reverse sometimes, but I added new fluid additives so it may go away. The synchros got worn because the previous owner used it as a parking brake. -The brakes pull slightly to the right initially, I believe it's a front pad issue since the previous owner drove this Jeep with the master cylinder/booster working. -Being a California Jeep, there isn't much rust for the age. The passenger side front tub support shows some old rust damage, but it's doing it's job (there's a photo from underneath)Typical small surface rust near the exterior reinforcement panel on both sides. These are all to be expected from a vehicle of this age. The CJ5 was made for utility so it's amazing these trucks survived at all! Please contact me if you have any questions of if you want to take a test drive. Also, please email me if you would like more photos (eBay will only allow 12 of my photos per auction). Please Ask Any Questions Before Bidding. A Deposit of $150 is Required from the Winning Bidder Within 72 hours (3days) After Auction to Cover eBay Fees

Chinese Jeep production confirmed with Fiat, Guangzhou agreement
Wed, 21 Aug 2013Fiat has just finalized a deal originally set up in January between it and China's Guangzhou Automotive Group to bring Jeep production to China. It remains unclear which models will be built, although we're wagering that it'll be the 2014 Cherokee. What we do know, now, is where production will take place.
According to Automotive News, Guangzhou originally wanted production to take place in its home assembly plant in its namesake city. Fiat has battled to send production to a joint venture facility established between Guangzhou and Fiat in the town of Changsha. The joint facility won out, and now the factory, originally built in 2010 with a 140,000-unit capacity, will see Jeeps rolling out of it.
Currently, the GAC-Fiat factory produces the Fiat Viaggio, a jointly developed product that is closely related to America's Dodge Dart. And while it remains unclear as to which model will join the Viaggio on the assembly line, that model is understood to ride on Fiat's Compact platform. The only Jeep to share those underpinnings is the new Cherokee, so there's not much connecting of dots needed to see why this scenario would make sense.
Jeep going bigger with new Grand Wagoneer, smaller with sub-Renegade?
Tue, 11 Mar 2014The headlines are still rolling in for the new Renegade that Jeep unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show last week, but already reports are surfacing, citing sources within the company, about what Chrysler's iconic off-road brand will do next.
Speaking with Auto Express (whose reports we tend to take with a grain of salt or two), Jeep chief Mike Manley suggested that two courses of action are currently under consideration at Auburn Hills to develop two very different new models - one smaller and one larger than anything Jeep currently makes.
One plan would be to make an SUV or crossover even smaller than the new Renegade, although it isn't immediately clear what platform it would take. The Renegade (pictured above in Trailhawk spec) will be built in Italy alongside Fiat's upcoming 500X, but uses a heavily modified platform. We figure the smaller model, if approved, could base itself on the new Fiat Panda Cross.
Jeep brings quartet of concepts to Beijing to show its Chinese style
Mon, 21 Apr 2014Jeep is making a big play for the Chinese crossover market at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show. It has a quartet styling concepts for the Renegade, Cherokee and Wrangler that are inspired by Chinese culture at the show.
Among them is the newest member of the Jeep lineup - the Renegade. Its Zi You Xia concept (pictured above) comes from the Mandarin for "rebel," and it's painted in Warm Chocolate Gray with Dark Anodized Bronze trim, including the 20-inch wheels. The roof, grille surround, and mirror caps are done in a complimentary Dark Charcoal color as an accent. The interior is a mix of dark brown leather and Anodized Copper trim. This is one swanky compact crossover.
The Cherokee Sageland and Urbane concepts are meant to show to different sides of Chinese style. With inspiration from the Shangri-La Region, the Sageland has Ivory Pearl tri-coat paint with bronze trim on the outside, and the interior is covered in Gray Nappa leather with red and blue stitching. The Urbane's look comes from the nightlife in the country's cities. The exterior is a color called Maximum Steel with Hyper Black trim. Inside, it combines Piano Black trim with dark red leather seats.
