Fogelsville, Pennsylvania, United States

First off to clarify:  This IS an actual mileage cj!! Auto check does not have it corrected, I have the carfax report ( please see last picture of report) . Previous owner checked wrong box on transfer, I have signed affidavit from Tennessee DMV with state seal signed by previous owner saying it was checked in error " no fraud intended". I submitted this to Pennsylvania  when I titled and it was CORRECTED on my current title it is "actual mileage", I have picture of. Also , I had to submit the affidavit and my current PA actual mileage to CARFAX as evidence and it was corrected on carfax report which I have.  Unfortunately, auto check  did Not correct it,I have all evidence and current carfax stating it is actual mileage, thank you. I can forward this to you on email if need be in addition to the pics.



1986 all original cj7
with only 37,785 miles!!!  6cyl, 4 speed Manuel. I am 3rd owner, I bought in 2011 with 34,xxx miles, has been garaged ever since and has never seen rain.  After I purchased I had approximately 3k in work done to jeep as it had been sitting for some time.  All work completed by Jeff Daniel's Jeep in Harleysville, Pennsylvania. Work included carburetor rebuild, fuel lines, plugs,brakes and calipers, wheel cylinders, exhaust and muffler, new belts, fuel filter, new battery, fuel pump, and tighten steering.  I have copy of all work done.  Also, a 300$ restoration and inspection checklist was done on the jeep where they go completely go over the whole jeep and check every component with a written report.  Jeep runs great, can go down the highway at 65 mph with zero issues and runs like a sewing machine. Mechanically, it could probably use a carb tune up as it has been 3 yrs, and brakes need to be bled to get air out, other than that it runs fantastic.  

All gauges are in correct working order, all lights work, all knobs work.  Interior is near perfect condition with upgraded black vinyl seats. Seatbelts work with no issues. This was a radio delete jeep. Brand new Bestop original style replace a top, bestop bikini top included, bestop vinyl half doors included.

All following parts were upgraded or replaced by me:
- new chrome hood latches as old ones chrome was worn
- new black Kentrol stainless steel side mirrors as originals rust and fad
-3 new dash knobs as old ones had chrome worn off
- installed oem original cj7 center console as it was originally a console delete jeep from the factory
-complete cj7 full factory carpet kit as original was just the front floor carpet from the factory
- upgraded original CHROME OEM wheels (including spare) as originals were white spoke wagon wheels, the chrome really makes them pop and are more desirable
- 5 BF Goodrich AT's all around in excellent condition.
- brand new Bestop Replace-a-top 1 month old with original hardware 400$ as original was dry rotted and plastic cracked.

Body:
- All original steel as you can see all the rivet marks where they should be
- Clearcoat in fantastic shape without the normal peeled clearcoat on hood ,shines awesome, turns heads.
- No dents/dings, NO FILLER or BONDO.
- Only issue spot are 3 areas ( see pictures) - right rear quarter just below softop snaps and rear corners where moisture was trapped under original softop where foam edge snaps to body, it is NOT ROT or rusted through! It is bare metal where paint had come off from small amount of bubbling, this appears to be a easy fix but it is NOT rusted through please see pics.  Only other area is body mounts have small amount of rust at body mount site ( see picture), other than that jeep is clean and appears to have a undercoating from factory that is black around wheel wells.


I am very honest in my assessment of the jeep as I am very critical and a perfectionist. It is not perfect but for 28 years old it's pretty dam good. Low mileage cj's don't come around often and very difficult to find here in the east. You can email with any further questions or additional pics, if you don't have the $,  then don't bid! Thank you for looking.

Autotrader picks best cars for 2015's college grads

Sun, May 31 2015

Summer is here and the school season is winding to a close. That means millions of students will be graduating college and (hopefully) entering the workforce. For many, that will mean buying a new car suited to the new stage in life into which they will now be embarking. That can be a bewildering choice, especially for someone who's never bought a car before. Fortunately, Autotrader has come up with a short list of recommended cars – new and used – which it recommends to the graduating class of 2015. Among the site's top choices are some compelling crossovers and hatchbacks, including the Buick Encore, Chevy Trax, and Jeep Renegade, as well as the Honda Fit, Nissan Versa Note, Mazda3 and Fiat 500. Can't stretch to buying new, or don't see the point? Autotrader has also identified the Toyota Camry, Ford Fusion and even the Lexus IS as smart buys in the certified pre-owned category. "Any time someone goes through a major life change, such as graduating college, they need to determine if their current ride makes sense for their lifestyle, from both a financial and functional perspective," says Autotrader editor Brian Moody. "For example, while that hand-me-down SUV from your parents was nice when you turned 16, you may want to opt for a safer, more fuel-efficient car as you transition into the working world." Autotrader Names 10 Best Cars for Recent College Graduates ATLANTA, May 28, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- For many, graduating college is a milestone like no other – it represents a new chapter, a proud accomplishment and, fortunately or unfortunately, financial independence. Luckily for graduates who are in the market for a new car to suit their post-college lifestyle, Autotrader's expert editors say now is a great time to make a purchase, as dealerships are flush with affordable models that are fun, fuel-efficient and thoughtfully designed.

This American Life spends a week selling Jeeps in Long Island

Thu, 19 Dec 2013

So you think you know car dealers? Well, maybe you do, but This American Life spent a month at Town and Country Jeep Chrysler Doge Ram in Long Island to give us a behind-the-scenes look (or listen, since it's a radio program) at what it's like to be a car dealer.
Yes, there's a lot of swearing in thick New York accents, frustration, confusion, and generally it's a madhouse at the dealership. But that's understandable when the sales staff has to sell 129 vehicles in October in order to get an $85,000 manufacturer bonus - with several other Jeep dealerships within a 10-mile radius.
The episode, 129 Cars, is worth a listen, but make sure you have 71 minutes to spare if you want to get through it in one sitting. Head here for the unedited version or here for the bleeped version (which is 58 minutes long).

Mazda2 nets Japan Car of the Year, Cherokee first US model to ever crack top 10

Tue, 14 Oct 2014

The 2015 Mazda2 is quite high up on our must-drive list. Yes, the teeny, tiny successor to the 100-horsepower five-door is worth getting excited over, largely because the previous generation was one of the absolute best smiles-per-dollar values on the market.
While we eagerly await for our opportunity to take to the 2's helm, our expectations of the new car have just been heightened thanks to its win in Japan's Car of the Year competition. Called "Demio" in the land of the rising sun, Japanese journalists handed out Mazda's second COTY award since the CX-5 took the title in 2012.
In more surprising news, the new Jeep Cherokee has made the list of 10 Best Cars in Japan. The Jeep's triumph marks the first time an American car has cracked the top ten, finishing eighth. It's not, however, the first Fiat Chrysler vehicle to snag the title, following in the footsteps of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta and Fiat Panda. Still, the fact that an American brand can make such impressive inroads into the traditionally tough-to-crack Japanese market is a seriously big deal.
