 Up for auction is a 1985 Jeep CJ7 Hard Top 6 cylinder 4 speed manual. Unmolested. This is a frame on restoration. The majority of the vehicle is factory original with the exception of the paint, seats, shocks, and carpet.
The Good -
  • Mechanically sound and everything mechanical operates as it should. All gauges, bulbs, and switches work. Starts right up, goes down the road straight, and stops on a dime.
  • The seats are all brand new BestTop vinyl and the carpet is also brand new (ACC DuPont cut pile in black)
  • Only 77,500 original miles
  • 1985 Sanyo high power cassette deck (refurbished) and 6x9 speakers in Sound Wedge boxes. Original paper behind speaker openings in the dash.
  • Perfect windshield. Perfect original dash pad.
  • New Duralast battery.
  • Many new lines, hoses, bulbs, and belts. All fresh fluids.

Things to know -

  • A very tiny drip at the rear main seal. Maybe a drip a day.
  • All 5 tires have less than 500 miles on them, but they do not all match. The spare tire may very well be the original spare, a standard Goodyear Wrangler. Three of the tires on the ground are Goodyear Wrangler APT. The fourth tire on the ground is a Goodyear Wrangler SRA. I have not changed them because the new owner may have their own preference in tires and tire size. All are original size 235 75r15.
  • Just a little bit of surface rust barely showing on the front fenders behind the tires (typical spot). It's not getting any worse is isn't very noticeable. Any other rust appears to have been removed or repaired. There is a new floor on the drivers side. I have another brand new one piece replacement but it isn't really needed at this time.
  • The paint is not original. It shines up very well with very few scratches, but there are a couple of little paint runs on those front fenders. The hard top has been painted black with texture. There is a spot on the very top where that paint peeled and was touched up. There is some over-spray from the new paint on the rear bumper that could probably be buffed off or have the bumper repainted, and a little bit on the edges of the dash.. I have new "Jeep" front fender stickers to go with it (paid $50) in case the new owner wants to clean up those fenders. I don't think that is worth doing yet.
  • I have all 5 chrome wheels, 4 are on the ground. The current spare wheel is a white factory wheel with a BestTop tire cover over it. The fifth chrome wheel would need to be polished and then mounted, but does come with this.
  • Needs rear seat belts.

This is a frame on restoration. It's not perfect but it needs very little and is suitable to be a daily driver. The paint job isn't perfect, but it's not too bad either. The frame is super solid without any rust at all. The underside has been painted and lightly undercoated. This Jeep went from Florida, to Kansas City, to Eastern Nebraska just a year or two ago which is why there is only very minor surface rust.

Please ask questions or come and see it. Message me and we can talk on the phone if you like. You need to ask questions! More pictures are available.

I will not deliver, but I will do my part on this end to help load or make it available for transport. For near locals, I may be able to meet you part way.

Only bid if you are serious and have the money to buy it.

A $1000 non-refundable deposit is due within 24 hours of end of auction. The remainder of the balance due must be paid within 7 days.

I do not need any help selling this vehicle and this is not a must sell situation.

Jeep is for sale locally so it could be removed at any time before reserve is met. Reserve is set for what I have in it.

No warranty of any kind. As is.

Say goodbye to the Dodge Dart and Chrysler 200

Wed, Jan 27 2016

Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne outlined an update to the company's five-year business plan Wednesday, and among the changes, the Dodge Dart and Chrysler 200 sedans will soon be phased out. The company's presentation to investors states that the "market shift from cars to trucks and UVs [utility vehicles is] now seen as permanent shift in demand," and FCA wants to respond as quickly as possible. Killing the 200 and Dart will allow FCA to build more Jeep and Ram models at the Sterling Heights, MI, and Belvidere, IL, plants where the sedans were produced. We already knew FCA was planning to shift 200 and Dart production to Mexico, to free up the Sterling Heights facility for Ram 1500 production, and the Belivdere site for Jeep Cherokee output. The Cherokee will move from its current home in Toledo, OH, to allow for increased Wrangler production. It's no shock that FCA wants to shift its focus to crossovers and trucks. In December 2015, for example, combined sales of the Dodge Dart and Chrysler 200 were 15,310. The Jeep Cherokee, which uses the same platform as the Dart and 200, outsold both models combined, with 24,049 sales. Both the Dart and 200 had troubles from the beginning. Marchionne recently blamed designers for the 200 not receiving a Consumer Reports 'recommended' rating, and the Dart was one of the lowest-scoring cars in a CR reliability study.

FCA delays Grand Wagoneer and next-generation heavy-duty Ram trucks

Mon, Dec 12 2016

The upcoming Jeep Grand Wagoneer has had a tumultuous gestation thus far. At one point it was essentially confirmed, but later it was rumored to have been cancelled. In that context, the latest report from Automotive News is something of a mixed blessing. According to the publication, the Grand Wagoneer has simply been delayed, as has the next-generation Ram heavy duty truck line. This does not seem to affect the fully redesigned Ram 1500, which was previously reported to have been pushed back slightly to 2019. Automotive News says the information came from unnamed sources at the company. Nothing was said about how long the vehicles would be delayed. The publication also conjectures that FCA is delaying the models to save some money to help cover the company's $7 billion of debt , since re-tooling both the heavy-duty truck plant and eventual Grand Wagoneer plant will be expensive. View 6 Photos We reached out to Chrysler for more information on the subject, but the company wouldn't comment on the report. Even so, we wouldn't be too surprised if FCA is indeed delaying these products. The company has delayed a number of vehicles in recent years. In fact nearly every major FCA truck and SUV, including the Grand Wagoneer and Ram line, were delayed about a year and a half ago. We certainly hope the company doesn't delay the Grand Wagoneer for too long, since it's possible it will have a price tag of over $130,000. The profit margins on an SUV with that kind of MSRP would go a long way to helping to pay down the company's debt. Related Video:

Chrysler recalls small number of 2013-2014 cars and trucks over engine debris

Thu, 12 Dec 2013

Chrysler is recalling a small number cars over issues with their 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines. The recall, which affects 522 examples of its 2013 Dodge Avenger and Chrysler 200 models, as well as 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot CUVs has to do with potential debris in the balance shaft bearings.
The abrasive stuff can cause the oil pressure to drop, which could lead to the engine stalling or outright failure. This situation could at best leave drivers stranded and at worst lead to a crash.
Chrysler will begin notifying owners, who will need to report in to have the balance shaft module replaced. All repairs are naturally free of charge. Scroll down for the bulletin from NHTSA.
