For sale is a 1979 jeep CJ7.  This jeep has a fiberglass body that is in great shape, the tub has been repaired of all defects and has been primed.  The Jeep also has YJ hard doors with the door latches installed in fiberglass tub.  The fenders are fiberglass and need to be primed and sanded.  As you can see in the pictures one has been sanded one has not(black one).  


The engine is a AMC 360 cubic inch V8.  The engine runs and is complete, needs a tune up.  I put a new mechanical fuel pump and fuel filter this year.  The engine needs new valve cover gaskets and i would recommend a full exhaust, new belts, and clean up the wiring.  The jeep has FUNCTIONAL power steering and alternator.  Has a automatic transmission that goes into all gears including reverse.  Has the quadratrac transfer case( have not tried to use as vacuum lines are not hooked up currently.  

The front bumper, roll bar, and front grill have been media blasted and have not been painted, the rust is surface rust.  They are solid and need either sanded or cleaned up prior to paint.  

The previous owner put brand new polyurethane bushings, brand new u joints, brand new brake pads and rotors, and poly. body mounts and new grade 8 hardware on the CJ7.  

I have the dash and numerous other interior pieces.  Everything i have related to the jeep will be included in the sale. 

I have brand new shocks in the box, also will include a blue soft top.  I am not sure if all the hardware is included for the top, i was not planning on running a roof.  

I was planning on finishing the jeep but moved and do not have time to finish the project.  It is a great start for a father son project or just a fun summer ride. 

The good:
-Brand new in box windshield frame
-all originals gauges included
-new indicator lights in box

MotorWeek reviews '83 American Motors lineup

Wed, Mar 18 2015

The 30th anniversary of American Motors' 1987 sale to Chrysler by Renault is just a few years away. AMC is long dead, but for its latest peek in the archives, MotorWeek winds back the clock to somewhat happier times. Take a look at the entire AMC lineup from 1983, including its models from Jeep and Renault. The Jeeps, and to a lesser extent, the AMC Eagle, enjoy a cult following today, but it's amazing how many of these other vehicles are now practically forgotten. Even the big debut in '83 of the Renault Alliance is largely ignored. Although with a ludicrous amount of body roll and a 55-horsepower 1.4-liter engine, it's probably rightly buried.

How to update and secure a vulnerable Chrysler Uconnect system

Sat, Jul 25 2015

If you own one of the 1.4 million vehicles affected by the recent Chrysler software recall, you may want to watch this video. In it, we explain how to get the latest infotainment software loaded onto the 8.4-inch Uconnect system. The recall was a response to the findings of researchers who were able to hack into and remotely control a 2014 Jeep Cherokee through its cellular connection. Although Fiat Chrysler has worked with Sprint to plug most of the holes on the carrier side, there are still some vulnerabilities that only this latest software version can patch. Owners have three options to get the update: download it now, wait for a USB stick in the mail, or take the vehicle to an FCA dealer. Chrysler will be sending USB sticks loaded with the software update to customers. Anyone with an internet connection and a USB stick of their own with at least 4 GB capacity can speed things up by downloading the patch from the Uconnect website. We cover that process from start to finish in the video, with the final portion still applicable to those using the FCA-supplied USB stick. If after watching this you still don't want to tackle the patch yourself, you can take your vehicle to the dealer to have it done. Also note that this process is the same for all Uconnect updates, not just the one patching the exploits. Our demonstrator vehicle is a 2015 Ram 1500 pickup. The procedure should be very similar on other products with the 8.4-inch Uconnect system, with only the location of the USB port varying. Once you have the USB stick with the software on it – either after having downloaded it yourself or receiving it in the mail from Chrysler – the installation process is relatively simple. It takes about 15 minutes to perform the update; we edited out the wait in the video. To check whether or not your car's 8.4-inch Uconnect system is running the latest software, go to System Information on the touch screen's Settings page and look at Software Version. The update related to the recall is version 15.17.5. Related Video: Recalls Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM Safety Technology Infotainment Videos Original Video hacking
