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.

Car Club USA: Louisiana Mudfest

Tue, Jun 16 2015

There's nothing quite like mudding. Big tires, huge power, and crazy-wild gearheads that like to throw down on a mud pit almost as much as a thirty rack of Coors. In the latest, and some might argue greatest yet episode of Car Club USA, we head to Louisiana to throw some dirt at Mudfest. As Louisiana's one and only Mouth of the South puts it, "If you don't mud ride... go to Texas I guess." Joining The Mouth and friendly rivals The Most Hated Mud Sluts, we dive in. Beyond the obvious V8 blasting and tractor-tire spinning, those who know best describe Mudfest as, "Good cooking, good friends, good fun, and a lot of partying." It's a motorsport spectacle unlike any you're likely to find up North or out West, though no less impressive to behold. Follow along with the fun, the impromptu drag racing, the trash talking, and the mechanical madness. And find out why, at Mudfest, "if we don't tear it up, we ain't done it right." Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures.

FCA seeking new trial in Jeep fire case, calls $150M judgement 'grossly excessive'

Sat, May 9 2015

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is fighting back after a Decatur County, GA jury ordered the company to pay $150 million to the family of a four-year-old boy that was killed after a 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee crashed and caught fire. The company is requesting the judge reduce the award, and should Walden's family not agree to the lower sum, that a new trial be held. The Detroit Free Press reports that FCA would be forced to pay $120 million over the death of young Remington Walden, with an extra $30 million being paid to the boy's family. Neither figure sits well with the automaker, though, which called the fine "grossly excessive," and claimed it was in violation of Georgia state law. The judgment stems from FCA's long-running problem with the fuel tanks of certain Jeep models built in the 1990s and 2000s. According to the newspaper, FCA argues that the jury was biased after the Waldens' attorneys played on the their passions and pushed for a big award, saying the wrongful death award was 11 times more than any appeals court has ever upheld. FCA said attorneys for the plaintiffs told the jury to base the settlement on Sergio Marchionne's total compensation, $68 million. FCA also claims in its motion that the young boy's suffering was brief. "A $30-million pain-and-suffering award for what plaintiffs acknowledge was at most one minute of suffering is irrational," the motion, which was obtained by The Detroit Free Press, read. "Where such plainly improper arguments are immediately followed by irrational and stunningly excessive damage awards, there can be no doubt that the jury acted from passion and prejudice." Jim Butler, the attorney for the Waldens, has called the motion "nonsense," although he said the family will accept whatever figure the judge sets.

Watch a Cayenne Turbo S, Range Rover SVR, and Cherokee SRT drag race

Thu, Mar 17 2016

We live in a weird world where high-performance SUVs could win a 60-mile-per-hour sprint against sports cars from just a few years ago. Here, Top Gear sets up a three-way drag race against the Porsche Cayenne Turbo S, Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR, and Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT, and the results show just how quickly these high-riding models can cross the quarter mile. The Cherokee SRT is the patriotic choice among the three, but it's down on power in this fight. Meanwhile, the Range Rover's menacing growl sounds the best, and the Cayenne Turbo S has the most horsepower. You'll have to watch the video to see which SUV will win this battle. Related Video:
