Jeep Cj7 Laredo 1981 81 Cj7 Laredo on 2040-cars
Rocky Mount, North Carolina, United States
1981 Jeep CJ7 Laredo Custom. The jeep has been in storage since late 2008. I had done a good deal of restoration and had it painted Ford Chrome yellow. I was in a serious accident and it has been stored ever since. I have decided that I will not finish it as I had planned. It has a Jeep 360 with a street cam and a 727 automatic transmission. The motor and trans is professionally built and I have just under 5,000.00 in the motor and 2,000.00 in the trans. The motor and trans has about 4,800 miles on them. It comes with the bikini top shown in the pics and also has a fiberglass hard top with steel doors (black) and a tan soft top. The soft top is probably in rough shape but the frame is in tact. Neither top has been on the jeep in many years but I believe most if not all the hardware is here. It has the original seats which need to be recovered but also has after market seats. There is one of each in it as shown in the pics. I was taking the original seats out to be recovered just before the accident. I had the old gas drained and new points, condenser and coil put on it. It runs good as ever but does need to be fine tuned and run some. It was built to have 400HP and still be a good daily driver with mpg around 16. It is very dirty from being in storage and I am not able to clean as I would like. I am trying to get a friend to come do "some" cleaning but so far he hasn't made it by. The pics show that the interior is dirty but don't show that the exterior is just as dirty. I did give it a light wash as best as I was able and it will clean up pretty good. A while back a tree fell on the building it was in and some stuff fell on the hood and scratched it and the finders. I suspect that the new owner may have it painted anyway unless your ok with yellow. I put no value on the paint job. Also one of the tree limbs pushed the passenger side window out of the hard top. It is not damaged and the rubber seal is ok. It can be put back in but it will take someone with stronger hands that I have at present. As it sits the Jeep is ready to drive but it does need cleaning and your personal touch to get it like you want it. It has to go. I set the buy it now at what I believe all the components are worth as a whole. There are some boxes of stuff I had bought for it that will go with it. Please ask questions as I deal with some memory issues and questions will help me give more details. If you use paypal any fees they charge me will be added to buyers cost at closing. Also this is for sale locally and I will end this early if needed. Thanks for looking and Good Luck!! A added note, the pics may or my not show it but the valve covers appear to be rusted over. I polished a small area with a dry shop cloth and it actually came clean. I believe these can be cleaned up. Again the whole thing needs a good cleaning. And to make it clear. I'm selling as is. Look it over good and ask questions. I have nothing to hide and it has to find a new home. |

Stellantis and Foxconn's new joint venture will focus on connectivity
Wed, May 19 2021MILAN — Carmaker Stellantis and TaiwanÂ’s Foxconn announced plans to develop a jointly operated automotive supplier focusing on technology to make vehicles more connected, including artificial intelligence-based applications and 5G communications. Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares said the services that will be developed through the tie-up “will mark the next great evolution of our industry,” alongside fully electrified and hybrid powertrains. The deal brings together Stellantis, the worldÂ’s 4th-largest automaker formed this year by the merger of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and PSA Peugeot, and Foxconn, a major supplier of iPhones. The companies said the venture would focus on such services as infotainment, the integration of telecommunications and computer systems, artificial intelligence-based applications, 5G communications, e-commerce channels and smart cockpit integration. The companies announced a non-binding memorandum of understanding to form a 50-50 joint venture called Mobile Drive, which will be based in the Netherlands and function as an automotive supplier also to other carmakers. The new venture will combine advanced consumer electronics, Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI) to create new services “that will exceed customer expectations,” the companies said in a release. “Customers today and, in the future, demand and expect ever-increasing software-driven and creative solutions to connect the drivers and passengers with the vehicle inside and out,Â’Â’ Foxconn Chairman Young Liu.

Jeep Wrangler likely to get aluminum body, will stay in Toledo
Mon, 27 Oct 2014Perhaps more than any other vehicle currently for sale in the United States, the Jeep Wrangler is viewed by purist fans as a vehicle that simply must maintain the status quo. In this case, that means a body-on-frame design, solid axles, a relatively large engine sitting up front and a removable top. It's always been that way, and it always will be.
Maybe.
According to the most recent reports, the next-generation Jeep will continue to soldier forth with a full steel chassis underneath its stamped bodywork. The biggest change, reports Automotive News, will be that said panels will be hewn from aluminum instead of steel, a seismic shift of a transition not unlike what's happened with the new Ford F-150. Because it won't be a unibody, the SUV will likely continue to be assembled in Toledo, OH as it (almost) always has been - the latter has been a source of heartburn in recent weeks for the Northwestern city in the Buckeye State.
