1984 Jeep CJ-7 Laredo- Black paint is all original with silver trim and decals. This Jeep has been garaged while in my possession and had spent most of its life in Nevada. The body is very solid without any surface rust and the it appears the undercarriage has been sprayed with a protectant as well. Engine is 4.2L 258 6 Cylinder engine runs and starts great, 5 speed manual transmission with Billet/Plus Competition Shifter and dual lever shifter kit for the Dana 300 transfer case, the 4x4 works great. A Centerforce performance clutch was added. It drives well with Cooper 31"x10.5x15 off road tires on custom rims (it has a rear mounted spare but its old). Tread life on the 4 main tires is very good. When I purchased the Jeep, I was told the motor was rebuilt and had around 27,000 miles. I added a couple more thousand this past summer. Under the hood the engine is very clean and has a D.U.I. distributor. The exhaust is custom with tubed steel with a 2.5" chrome tip welded offering a nice rumble. Chromed features include the front bumper, grill, hood latches and hinges, hood vent, side tube step and door handles. On the rear bumper, a heavy gauge Rock Receiver with 2" receiver was added. The front bumper features a 8,000lb winch. The interior condition is pretty nice. The windshield is free of cracks and rock chips. The dash is in very good condition and all the gauges work (except for the clock). When I bought the Jeep, it had a lousy Panasonic radio and blown dash speakers which I upgraded to a JVC KD-R530 (works with CDs, aux cable, usb cable) and Polk marine speakers and marine speaker wire. I also ran speaker wires to the rear so a removable speaker box could be played (not included-I use it mainly in a little boat). I also added a decorative diamond plate cover over the transfer case. Driver and passenger seats are in great condition and are a comfortable, thick cushion. Both seats have levers to slide the seats forward and flip forward allowing access to the rear seat. The rear seat appears to be original and has a spot where the stitching is pulling apart. The rear seat does not fold and tumble forward. The carpeting is simple thin black for easy clean-up or drying. The top-padded center counsel is a Tuffy steel security box where the main radio is stored and offers additional lockable storage and 2 cup-holders on the rear of it. The hardtop is fiberglass with what appears to be amateur tint added to it, but also comes with a BesTop Supertop with tinted professional zip-out windows, bikini top and soft doors with plastic windows. The hard steel doors don't appear to be original since the black paint seems to be off a shade. I only drove it on clear days...no rain...no snow/salt. The Jeep gets a lot of compliments and many thumbs-up. Of course, with an old vehicle there are some flaws...she drips a little and the paint is original with minor hood dings and what I was told was paint fade from a tarp (see picture). The front bumper has a scratch on it and the horn doesn't work (not sure why). None of these flaws bothered me since the thing is so darn cool to drive. I was even gifted a replacement windshield frame (only appears to be dusty), extra visors, rear fender flares and repair manuals which I will pass on to the winning bidder. Good luck on the bids!

Chrysler taking big risk snubbing NHTSA
Wed, 05 Jun 2013Maker Insists Feds Overstate Risk Of Fires With Grand Cherokee, Liberty Models
It's not often that recall stories make it above the fold, in that old newspaper parlance, but when one shows up as the lead story on the network evening news programs, you know it's something big.
And so it is with Chrysler snubbing its nose at a request by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to recall 2.7 million Jeeps the feds insist are at risk of potentially catastrophic fuel tank fires in a rear-end collision.
Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).
Why Mopar won't release a factory lift kit for the new Jeep Cherokee
Thu, 24 Apr 2014The Jeep Cherokee Dakar concept showed off at the 2014 Easter Jeep Safari made a lot of online friends, even the Cherokee naysayers assenting that there's a monster Jeep underneath the Cherokee's skin if you're willing to go in and get it. But after reading Road & Track's write-up of what went into creating the Dakar, particularly its lift, you'll understand why you'll probably never see the components for it in the Jeep Performance Parts catalog.
The concept's press release mentions a "prototype Jeep Performance Parts lift kit, and additional suspension modifications." The short-story explanation is that the front struts on the standard Cherokee weren't engineered to accept any amount of lift, so the long story begins with the phrase, "an entirely new suspension." Head over to RT to read the details, and don't be afraid to ogle the Cherokee Dakar gallery and another awesome Jeep fancy that won't likely crawl over the hurdles imposed by production reality.
