  You are viewing a super solid and all original1981 CJ-5 Renegade. This Jeep was purchased new at Tupelo Datsun/American Motors in Tupelo, Mississippi. The original MSRP was $9479.00. Optional equipment is as follows, Renegade package, 258 6 cylinder engine, rear traction lock differential, power steering, power front disc brakes, tilt steering wheel, blue denim soft top, and draw bar with hitch. This CJ still wears its original Olympic white paint, Renegade stripes/decals, and blue denim Whitco soft top!  It truly is an unbelievable survivor that has been untouched by its only two owners. The body is rock solid with no rust repair ever. It is laser straight too with no dents anywhere! The paint is 33 years old but still looks amazing! It is very obvious that this Jeep has been garaged and pampered its entire life! Even the original Whitco soft top looks great! There is absolutely no evidence of previous accident damage, rust repair, patch panels, bonds, etc. this Jeep really is beautiful. You could search for years and years and still not find a CJ that is this original and clean!
   Mechanically, this Jeep is super sound. It has just 99K miles from new but could pass for a Jeep with half the miles. It starts up easily and runs absolutely perfect. The motor sounds super smooth and does not run hot, knock, tick, etc. it pulls strong through the gears and is a pleasure to drive. The T 176 4 speed transmission shifts perfectly and the 4WD works as it should. The alternator, starter, solenoid, battery cables, etc. are new. I have a receipt for the tires when they were purchased by the original owner back in 1990! They now have about 23K miles on them and are still in good shape. Absolutely everything works on this Jeep including the lights, gauges, turn signals, wipers,horn, heater, blower motor, etc. The Jeep drives down the road nice and straight and is super quiet too. Again, this is as nice of an unrestored time capsule CJ-5 as you will ever find for my reserve price. I have the original owners manual, books, window sticker, service records, bikini top, top parade boot, jack, etc. If you have been searching for a beautiful unmolested Jeep then you've found it. Now is your chance to own this appreciating classic.

What will Detroit do with the abandoned AMC headquarters?

Mon, Dec 28 2015

As with so many other industrial and residential properties in Detroit, the former headquarters for the American Motors Corporation is having a hard time finding a reputable buyer. In October the Wayne County Treasurer held a tax foreclosure auction of 25,000 properties that included the AMC building, the starting bid being $500. Nicholas Casab won the building for $500, but the county voided the sale when Casab didn't pay the $232,000 in back property taxes. Detroit authorities haven't commented on the failed sale, but the city has until January 4 to decide if it wants to keep the building. If it doesn't want to hold onto it, the 1.5-million-square-foot property on 57 acres might be ceded to the Wayne County Land Bank Corporation. No matter who holds the deed come January 5, all anyone really wants is for someone to take possession of the building who will actually turn it into something useful and viable. The property opened in 1927 as a factory for the Kelvinator Corporation. Over the following decades, Kelvinator merged with the Nash Motor Company, and that merged entity merged with Hudson Motor Car Co, becoming American Motors. Chrysler took over the building in 1987 when it bought AMC, then shuttered it in 2009. The complex has produced refrigerators, Sikorsky helicopters, Jeeps, AMCs, and was used as an engineering center for Jeeps and other Chrysler products. Having been through several hands in the past six years, it is cited as part of the cycle of abandonment plaguing Detroit.

Jeep Wrangler Polar is a tasty frozen treat

Wed, 11 Sep 2013

Perhaps it's because we've seen so many kitted-out examples over the years, but it seems to us that the Jeep Wrangler tends to wear its special-edition duds better than most models. It might be the icon's familiar rectilinear proportions or the inherent bolt-on look of its extremities - bumpers, mirrors, lighting, and step rails - but we've seen precious few factory specials that look anything but excellent.
Case in point: this new Jeep Wrangler Polar unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show. This European-market limited-edition model is said to be a celebration of winter driving, which evidently works out to a body-color hardtop, black-accent seven-slot grille, 18-inch gloss black wheels, Trac-Lok limited-slip differential and a hard hat for the spare tire. Finished here in Hydro Blue (Billet Silver Metallic and Bright White are also available) and a black interior with Polar White accents, the Polar edition features badges displaying 78° S and 106° E longitude and latitude coordinates for Vostok, Antarctica.
This new Jeep will be available in both standard and Unlimited formats with either the 3.6-liter Pentastar gas engine or the still-not-for-US 2.8-liter turbodiesel when it bows early next year. For further details, check out our gallery above and the press release below.
