This is a 76 Jeep CJ7 Built by a Jeep shop in TX. I bought this Jeep because I always loved the CJ7. My plan was to keep it forever but life has changed and I'm unable to keep it. The Jeep is a 76 frame and drive train with a 84 body. The Jeep was totally redone with almost all new parts. There was almost $20,000 spent building this Jeep. A built AMC 401 V-8 is about $5,000 alone.
The only reason I'm selling the CJ is I have another jeep and I bought a side-by-side.
The Jeep has 4300 mi since being built.

The motor is a built AMC 401 V-8 with a TF- 727 3 speed automatic behind it. Edelbrock carb, intake, and valve covers are mounted on the motor along with true duel Cherry Bomb exhaust. The transfer case is a Dana 300. This set-up is very strong and works very well. The front Dana 30 has disk brake and a Spartin locker. The rear axle is an AMC 20 with one-piece axles. Bushwhacker fender flairs cover 5 NEW 35x12.5x15 Procomp Mud Terrain. The suspension is a Rough Country 4-in lift with sway-bar disconnects. The body is in great shape (for an 84) with a 2-in body lift. Front seats are Corbeau RS with original fold and tumble rear seat. There is a Bikni top and half doors as seen in pics and also a full soft top with soft doors and hard top with hard doors. Rock hard front bumper holds a Superwinch EPI 9.0 9000 LB with 120 ft of new cable. Rear bumper has swing out tire carrier with full size spare and 2 in receiver with trailer light hook ups.  This Jeep does drive down the Hwy at 70 mph without a problem.
Email me if you would like all the Jeep info.

There is also front tow bar shackles with a Blue Ox tow bar.
New windshield frame and seal go with it.


The bad
There is a dent in the front passenger fender.
A few small spots of surface rust.
The hard top hatch has rust and doors are mix-matched.

If parked for awhile there are a couple drops of trany fluid under it.

Fiesta-sized Jeep coming in 2014

Wed, 03 Jul 2013

We've heard rumors before about a new, baby Jeep to slot below the new-for-2014 Cherokee (pictured) in the automaker's lineup. Now, Edmunds is reporting that the new crossover will arrive sometime in 2014, and will be about the same size as the Ford Fiesta. This currently unnamed vehicle will effectively replace both the Compass and Patriot in the Jeep lineup.
Speaking to Edmunds, Jeep CEO Mike Manley said that the new, small Jeep will be assembled in Italy and marketed globally beginning sometime next year. Manley did not provide many details on the new model, but did say that it will be 4.2-meters (165 inches) long. The Cherokee, by comparison, is 4.6-meters long (181 inches). Furthermore, Edmunds reports that while the new small Jeep will offer diesel power in other markets, there are no plans for an oil-burning version here in the US.
Many other automakers are exploring this smaller crossover segment here in the US. General Motors recently launched the Buick Encore, which is loosely based on the Chevrolet Sonic subcompact's platform. Ford has already launched its Fiesta-based EcoSport in other markets, and has reportedly been pondering the idea of offering it in the US, as well.

2014 Jeep Cherokee: Introduction

Tue, 27 May 2014

When we look back at some of the more shocking product launches of recent yeras, the Jeep Cherokee is certainly high up on the list. And we aren't just talking about its off-the-wall, polarizing design.
For starters, it brought back the iconic Cherokee nameplate - something Jeep enthusiasts have coveted for ages. But beyond that, it brought a new evolution for the Jeep brand. After all, the Cherokee is car-based - using the same compact platform that underpins the Dodge Dart and Chrysler 200. It has a greater focus on technology and refinement than ever before, in an effort to appeal to a new crop of Jeep customers. And powering it all is a new (optional) V6 engine paired with an equally new nine-speed automatic transmission.
Can the Cherokee's car-based roots still allow for a vehicle that's superb when the going gets tough? Will its design still be a love/hate affair in one year's time, or will it start to blend in? Is the powertrain strong enough to not only support the needs of daily driving and road trips, but blaze a few trails as well? We're aiming to answer all these questions, and more, over the next 12 months. Welcome to the Autoblog long-term garage, Cherokee.

Jeep burned down by new Samsung Galaxy Note 7

Thu, Sep 8 2016

A Florida family is out a Jeep Cherokee and a brand new cell phone after a Samsung Galaxy Note 7 left on a charger allegedly burst into flames on Monday and destroyed both itself and the Jeep. According to Fox 13, Nathan Dornacher and his wife Lydia were cruising garage sales in St. Petersburg, Florida on Labor Day with their daughter and their service dog. They stopped at home to unload a desk they'd purchased earlier. While they got the desk out of the Cherokee's hatch Nathan left his shiny new Galaxy Note 7 charging in the Jeep's center console. When the family went to leave again to run more errands, they were shocked to see that the Jeep's interior was engulfed in flames and thick black smoke was pouring out of the panel gaps. The St. Petersburg Fire department responded to the Dornachers', but it was too late for the Cherokee. The fire destroyed the vehicle, which was dearly loved by Nathan and heavily modified with aftermarket equipment. The Galaxy Note 7 has gained a nasty reputation for spontaneous combustion since its release in August. Samsung has recalled the phone in ten countries after thirty-five instances of Galaxy Note 7s catching fire or exploding for no good reason were confirmed. Fox 13 received a statement from a Samsung spokesperson after they reported the story about the Dornachers' poor jeep. "We are aware of the incident and we are working with Mr. Dornacher to investigate his case and ensure we do everything we can for him. Consumer safety is Samsung's highest priority. With regard to the Galaxy Note7, we are asking owners to take advantage of the Product Exchange Program announced on Friday of last week. The program offers Note7 owners the opportunity to exchange the phone for a new one. More details on the program can be found at http://www.samsung.com/us/note7exchange/."
