1985 Jeep Cj7 Base Sport Utility 2-door 4.2l on 2040-cars
North Franklin, Connecticut, United States
Engine:6 cyl 258
Used
Year: 1985
Drive Type: 4WD
Make: Jeep
Mileage: 3,000
Model: CJ
Warranty: Vehicle does NOT have an existing warranty
Trim: Basic
Frame-off restoration completed in 2012. Frame professionally sandblasted and painted. Rebuilt both axles (Dana 44 rear and AMC 30 front). New 3.53 gears, leaf springs and shocks. New Jasper engine (@3000 miles on it now). T 176 4 speed manual transmission. 1989 Wrangler tub, undercoated with Eastwood product and inside was Herculined. Professional paint job on the outside. Painless wiring kit. All new gauges. New gas tank, brakes, all stainless brake lines, fuel lines, even flexible brake lines are braided. 1" body lift, 1.5 inch shackle lift. 33" Pro Comp tires. Vintage seats with "CJ" logo (pictured). I used an HEI distributor, so no coil. All accessories (PS pump, alternator, starter, radiator, power brake booster) brand new. Even lower steering column is new. PSC hi performance steering box. Clearly, no expense was spared. Everything on this Jeep is either new or refurbished. Odometer: Before the restoration, the old Jeep had 126,000 miles. I used the best odometer I had, which stated 16,901. It now states 19,800 miles. So I have put @3000 miles on it since completion. This is one of the cleanest Jeeps you'll find. Not used off road, but she'd love to go :). Only a few minor issues: Gas gauge does not work. Worked for awhile, then quit. Small paint bubble on passenger's door (pictured), couple other nicks and scratches, nothing major. $20,000 invested in this project, reserve price is much less than that. If you're looking for a clean, tough CJ, look no further!

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee
Wed, 23 Oct 2013Jeep appears to have nailed it this time. After two decades of assembling its Grand Cherokee sport utility vehicle, the American automaker has finally delivered a world-class off-roader capable of taking on everything in its segment - and more - with a high likelihood of coming out on top.
And if you drove last year's model, it's time to climb behind the wheel again as Jeep has significantly updated the SUV for 2014 with a bold new exterior appearance, an upgraded interior with enhanced electronics and a new transmission that completely transforms the way it drives.
We recently spent a full week with a dark blue 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland 4x4, a well-optioned model fitted with the standard gasoline-fed V6. While it didn't have the punch of the range-topping V8-powered SRT8, or the fuel-sipping economy of its new EcoDiesel sibling, the high-volume variant left us quite impressed.
Jeep Wrangler Dragon Edition coming to North America
Thu, 12 Sep 2013If 2012 was the year of the dragon in China, perhaps the US can claim 2014. After showing the Jeep Wrangler Dragon Design Concept at the 2012 Beijing Motor Show, and apparently receiving "tremendously positive feedback" from Jeep enthusiasts across the globe, the automaker has decided to introduce a production version that will hit US showrooms this fall with a price of $36,095.
"The dragon symbolizes strength and power and is an aspirational character normally associated with royalty and good fortune," says Jeep, and that apparently equates to a blacked-out Wrangler Unlimited with bronze satin gloss highlights inside and out, along with big dragon decals that start on the hood and run down the fenders. There are 18-inch matte black wheels with a bronze outer edges, and a dragon-emblazoned spare tire cover completes the look.
We suggest you peruse the high-res image gallery above to see all the black and bronze detailing yourself, and make special note of the interior. In related news, all 2014 Jeep Wrangler models get an optional Trail Kit and clear park lamps to replace the previous amber units. New colors include Amp'd, Anvil, Copperhead, Flame Red, Granite Crystal and Hydro Blue (Freedom edition only), which join carryover colors Billet Silver, Bright White, Black and Dune.
Hank the Autodog takes a ride in the long-term 2014 Jeep Cherokee
Wed, May 13 2015Autoblog readers, meet Hank, my 40-pound, six-year-old Shar Pei and Staffordshire Terrier mix, a combination also known as a Pit Bull. Pit Bulls and car enthusiasts have a lot in common. They're a little intimidating to your average man on the street, but at the end of the day all they want to do is feel the breeze in their ears. Dogs who love car rides are the ultimate enthusiasts, and Hank especially is a canine connoisseur of cars. There is nothing Hank likes more than to hop in and go for a ride. With an owner like me, he has developed refined tastes when it comes to cars. As our long-term Jeep Cherokee is about to leave the Autoblog Garage, and since the weather is warming back up, it's the perfect time to give our Autodog one last spin in his favorite Jeep. We wanted to see what a car ride looks like from a dog's perspective. Luckily, we have a cache of GoPros and plenty of cars on hand to give Hank one last chance to go for a window-down ride. After many pets, treats, and drives around town, we put together this video montage of Hank's best day ever.
