1982 Jeep Cj7 Cj 7 - 6 Cyl 258 T4 Manual Wide Track - Solid Fixer Upper on 2040-cars
Oka, Quebec, Canada
Hi, I am reluctantly selling my Jeep since I don't have any more time to enjoy it, and I have a lot more projects on the waiting list. I ought it 2 years ago with a broken differential and have fixed a lot of things on it to make it running again. I have used it to get around in the forest for the past year and it ran well.
It's a 1982, with an inline 6 cylinder engine, 258 and a T4 manual transmission. It has a hard-top from a 97 YJ, it has the side bars for the roll cage, it has a soft roof also. Mileage is 136K miles but I don't know if it's actual. There are a lot of pros and cons on this car so here goes: Pros: - This vehicle has been previously restored but I don't know when and by who. Everything is color painted, frame is purple, engine is orange, transfer case is yellow, etc. - Very solid frame, has been re-plated on the right side, otherwise is rust free and rustproofed. - New spark plugs, distributor, PCV valve, fuel filter, etc. - New carburetor, Weber DGES 38 bought last year to replace the carter one - Front calipers and pads are new - Rear differential was replaced, with a used but working drive shaft. It's a locked differential with one piece axles to put on larger tires, new differential oil, etc. - No holes in the body or frame - Doors come off Cons: - Original paint is blue, re-painted by hand with matte Tremclad anti-rust paint. - Engine burns oil, when the car is hot it has more smoke from the tailpipe than a 19th Century locomotive. Piston rings are probably finished. Engine must be rebuilt - Transfer case shifts very hard from 4X4 to 2X4 or low to high. I don't know what the problem is. - Seats are rusted though, well the springs are, and the fabric is torn. They must be replaced. - Wiring must be re-done on the whole car. It starts and runs with the key, speedo works, oil pressure works, but the gas and temp do not. Headlights do not work. Complete wiring must be redone in it. It starts and runs but needs a lot of work. I do not deem it secure to drive it as it is on the road (maybe in the forest but still) Please refer to the pictures for any additional information, it comes exactly as pictured. It is located in Montreal, Quebec, Canada but I am willing to ship it worldwide at the buyer's expense. *** SHIPPING IT TO EUROPE IS AROUND 1000$ - 1500$ *** Overseas buyers: Please message me for quote, it's easier for me to get it shipped to Helsinki, Rotterdam of somewhere along those lines. USA bidders: I could deliver the car to Champlain NY 12919 for free but the paperwork is on you, I have never exported a car to the US so I'm not aware of the laws, but could assist you in any case. If you have questions please ask before bidding. |

Maserati Levante crossover not Jeep based after all?
Thu, 20 Feb 2014Maserati has been teasing its crossover project since 2011, which is when it first showed off the Kubang concept (pictured above). Still, the production version, rumored to be called the Levante, remains a complete mystery. The CUV was first rumored to borrow the platform from the Jeep Grand Cherokee, but new rumors indicate that the Italian, luxury crossover might actually take the underpinnings from the Quattroporte and Ghibli.
In a brief interview, Maserati CEO Harald Wester told CNN Money that the Levante wouldn't use Jeep's platform. Motor Trend spoke with an unnamed Maserati engineer who confirmed the rumor. Officially, the company says that no decision has been made.
We can add this to another long list of rumors about the Italian CUV. It was originally supposed to be built at Chrysler's Jefferson North assembly plant in Detroit. Then, plans were changed to build it in Italy.
Chrysler recalling 630k Jeep models worldwide
Thu, 06 Jun 2013Despite its refusal to recall 2.7 million Jeep Grand Cherokee and Liberty models this week over a gas tank fire risk, Chrysler will be recalling 630,000 Jeep Compass (pictured), Patriot and Wrangler vehicles around the globe for a pair of entirely different reasons.
The affected Compass and Patriot models are all from the 2010 to 2012 model years - 254,000 in the United States, 45,400 in Canada and 109,000 elsewhere in the world. In these models, a software error may result in the late deployment of the side airbags and seatbelt tensioners. In the event of a crash, failure of these systems could result in more serious injuries for the vehicle's occupants.
Jeep's go-anywhere Wrangler also faces a separate recall due to power steering fluid lines that can possibly wear a hole in the transmission oil cooler line. According to Chrysler, the vehicles could then leak fluid, possibly damaging the transmissions. Roughly 221,100 Wrangler models are being recalled because of this issue, all of which are fitted with Jeep's 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine. In the US, 181,000 vehicles are affected, with an additional 18,400 in Canada and 21,700 additional units worldwide. A Chrysler spokesperson said that no crashes or injuries have been reported with either case, according to the Associated Press.
NHTSA still mulling crash tests for recalled Jeeps
Thu, 15 Aug 2013Well, no one should ever accuse the government of not giving things plenty of thought. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is still debating whether it will retest any of the 1.56 million 1992 to 1998 Grand Cherokees and 2002 to 2007 Libertys that were part of a recall regarding fires after rear-end collisions. And yes, this debate has been going on for over a month. In other news...
The recall dustup started in early June, when Chrysler took the unusual position of refusing a recall request from NHTSA regarding placement of the fuel tank on the effected vehicles. NHTSA said a collision could cause a fire, a position Chrysler took issue with. Extensive negotiations ensued, with Chrysler agreeing to fit certain Jeeps with trailer hitches, which it said would provide some protection to fuel tanks mounted behind the rear axle in the event of a collision.
Part of the issue rests with the amount of data that needs to be processed, according to The Detroit News. NHTSA administrator David Strickland said during a Washington Auto Press Association meeting, "There's a lot of data and Chrysler is being very cooperative in giving us more data." Until that information has been sorted, it looks like re-testing will still be up for debate.
