1983 "california" Cj7 Jeep 4x4 - No Rust, Recently Restored on 2040-cars
Fort Myers, Florida, United States
CLASSIC 1983 CJ-7 JEEP FANTASTIC CONDITION We originally bought this Jeep in 2003 from California because of the pristine condition this Jeep was in with absolutely no rust on it. Being in the auto restoration business for over 32 years, I could not resist a gem like this. we have restored over 30 Jeeps for clients and this one is the cleanest rust free we have seen come through. It was completely stripped to bare metal inside and out before being repainted with House of Kolor Kandy Apple Red. The inside was sprayed with a matching color of red Reflex spray-on bedliner to give it protection and durability. We put new Hancook tires and rims on it we will update pics ! along with replacing the OEM plastic valve cover with the aluminum replacement and studs and put a Webber carb. We’ve rebuilt the original T5 Borg-Warner transmission with all new berring's /sync rows and brass, replaced the flywheel, clutch, pressure plate, throw-out berring z bar /and installed new trans-mounts and stabilizer mounts. Along with rebuilding all the drive shafts, installing new U-joints, rear brake job, and all new synthetic oils in the differentials, transmission, and transfer case. The engine is completely tuned up with a new fuel pump –
While it was being driven it got frequent oil changes, washed almost weekly, with regular maintenance done without fail. This was sort of a slow project that my daughter and I did over the years – so it has been done right! The only thing that we never got to was going through the dash – it needs a new glove box,dash upgrade etc. seats are nice front and back with new door rubbers including windshield and gate rubbers We’re in the process of putting a new exhaust on it just for the
heck of replacing it. along with a new battery
You will NOT find an ’83 Jeep like this anywhere else!!! It’s in great condition and still rust free and driving.
The 6 cylinder (original) engine and 4WD make for some serious fun on and
off-road. The hard top is in good condition and was repainted a gunmetal when we got it.
Of course, being 30 years old, this
Jeep does have some minor wear and tear on it – but considering the overall
condition of this vehicle, this vehicle is in fantastic condition - as any Jeep lovers can see. Message if interested!! Don’t let

Weekly Recap: Ferrari looks to reclaim old success with new manager
Sat, Nov 29 2014Clearly, Ferrari doesn't race for fourth place, and this week, major changes continued at the Scuderia. It was a rough year for Ferrari, and the Scuderia conducted its season-ending tests in Abu Dhabi this week with a view toward a fresh start in 2015 with new leaders and a new ace driver. Though plenty of other Formula One teams were disappointed with their finishes in 2014, Ferrari was perhaps the most eager to put this season in its rear-view mirror. The Scuderia finished a distant fourth in the Constructors standings with 216 points, well behind No. 1 Mercedes (701 points), and Ferrari failed to win a single race as the Silver Arrows dominated the grid. It was an especially bitter pill for a team that claims 16 Constructors championships and 15 Drivers titles – the most in history – and is the only surviving team from F1's first season, 1950. Clearly, Ferrari doesn't race for fourth place, and this week, major changes continued at the Scuderia. Ferrari named Philip Morris executive Maurizio Arrivabene as team principal. He replaced Marco Mattiacci, who held the job for only seven months after taking over for Stefano Domenicali, who resigned in April amid the Scuderia's early-season struggles. Phillip Morris (through its Marlboro brand) is a key Ferrari sponsor, and that played a role in Arrivabene's ascension. Still, he's no stranger to F1, and has been intimately involved in the Ferrari-Marlboro partnership. He also has served as the sponsors' representative on the FIA's F1 Commission since 2010. In a statement, new Ferrari chairman Sergio Marchionne said: "We decided to appoint Maurizio Arrivabene because, at this historic moment in time for the Scuderia and for Formula One, we need a person with a thorough understanding not just of Ferrari, but also of the governance mechanisms and requirements of the sport." Arrivabene's background is primarily in marketing and communication, and most recently he held the title of vice president of consumer channel strategy and event marketing for Philip Morris. He has been with the company since 1997. Arrivabene now leads a team that's rife with change. Marchionne took over in October when longtime boss Luca di Montezemolo quit in a disagreement about Ferrari's future, and the company itself will be spun off from parent Fiat Chrysler Automobiles in 2015.
Jeep Grand Cherokee in headliner fire probe
Fri, 23 Aug 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching an investigation into 146,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs from the 2012 model year, The Detroit News reports. This comes as the result of the government safety agency receiving three complaints from owners who cited fires inside the Jeep's cabin.
According to the report, NHTSA says:
"The customers reported a burning odor and visible smoke coming from the headliner while the vehicle was being driven. This was followed by flames from the headliner itself. Customers lowered the windows in an effort to clear the smoke but this increased the fire's intensity. All three vehicles had to be extinguished with a fire extinguisher or by the fire department as they continued to burn after the vehicle was turned off."
Mopar updates owner apps to make car ownership easier
Wed, Jun 3 2015Owners of any Fiat Chrysler vehicle will want to head to the Apple App or Google Play store to download the latest version of their brand-specific smartphone app. Developed by Mopar, the new suite of FCA Owner apps specific to each brand pack a number of valuable features. For starters, the apps let owners access information like maintenance schedules, service history and recall notices. The apps also include an array of how-to information and instructional videos, offer push notification for important updates like maintenance offers and recall alerts, and allow customers to schedule test drives and receive quotes from their local dealers for new vehicles. But that's just the tip of the proverbial iceberg. The FCA Owner apps also feature an augmented reality function that helps drivers identify instrument-panel icons. There's a Parking Reminder feature that helps drivers remember where they parked their car, guides them back to their parking spot and tracks the time left on the meter. Finally, there's an Accident Assistant feature that helps drivers record the specifics of an accident, upload insurance information and take photos of the scene. It'll even help find the closest certified collision repair facility, schedule an appointment and access roadside assistance. The apps are available for any Chrysler, Dodge, Ram, Jeep, Fiat or Alfa Romeo built from 2011 till today, and are available for either iOS or Android. If you've got more than one FCA vehicle in your garage, you needn't download multiple versions of the app as they'll work on any model the Italian-American automaker offers.
