Selling a 1970 CJ5 Jeep. Last year for the Kaiser tags before AMC took over production. This Jeep has been fun, but it's time to move on to the next one.

The good:

Runs and drives. Has the 225 cubic inch Buick V6 Dauntless engine.
Runs good and has a surprising amount of torque/pep
4 speed transmission with a granny first gear
Twin transfer case sticks to independently switch front and rear axles
Warn manual front hubs
Newer heater that works well
Nice condition Best Top with full doors that convert to 1/2 doors
Spring over lift with longer shackles
35 inch Gumbo Mudder tires
Oil pressure, water temp and volt meter gauges work
Clear California title on a current non-op
No smog required in California, it's a 1970 model


The not so good:

Has rust as shown in the pictures. The worst is through the front fenders and cowl area.
The whole Jeep is mechanically and cosmetically worn
The steering is okay off road, but feels very loose on the pavement. Might be an adjustment issue or worn parts.
The front drive line was crudely lengthened, but is functional
The transmission cross member was crudely fabricated, but is functional
Has no shocks. I've only used the Jeep off road and it did not bother me.
Speedometer and fuel gauges don't work
No parking brake
No rear seat


The bottom line:

This is a off road drivable work in progress. It would be at home as a ranch/hunting rig. It is not ready to drive safely on the road and is a great start to a project jeep. The engine runs well and it is lots of fun in the hills. Depending on your desired use, this is either a good start or is ready to just be a fun dirt toy. I can be reached by email or phone at 707 599 2315 for further questions or to see in person.

I can help load onto your trailer or meet your shipper, but the cost is all up to you. I require a $500 non refundable deposit via paypal with 48 hours of auction end and cash or a cashiers bank check for the balance within 7 days or at time of pick up, whichever comes first.

Refreshed Chrysler 300 SRT won't be sold in NA

Mon, 20 Oct 2014

It looks like it might be time to bid farewell to the V8 rumble from the Chrysler 300 SRT - at least if you live in North America. The reported change comes as Fiat Chrysler Automobiles reshuffles its ranks with the Dodge brand, re-absorbing SRT and building its muscular reputation with the Challenger and Charger Hellcat models. Meanwhile, Chrysler is taking a more mainstream approach, and that likely means the end of overt high-performance models from the division for now.
According to Automotive News, the 300 SRT will be discontinued in the US for 2015, but it won't be totally dead. Some right-hand drive markets will still get the brawny V8 sedan next year, a distinction that goes a long way toward explaining some spy shots we've seen recently.
The 300 SRT's North American demise probably shouldn't come as a total shock. In FCA's five-year plan, it says that the 300 is destined for a refresh to be unveiled later this year, presumably at the upcoming Los Angeles Auto Show. There's no mention of the SRT model in the document, though, which seems to signal its end.

Watch this 650-hp Hennessey Jeep Grand Cherokee go from 0-60 in 3.9 seconds

Tue, 14 May 2013

Hennessey Performance Engineering has created an HPE650 package for the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT fitted with the 6.4-liter Hemi engine. When it leaves the showroom floor it has 470 horsepower and gets from 0-60 miles per hour in 4.8 seconds. When it leaves Hennessey's garage floor after the upgrade it has 650 horsepower - 530 hp at the wheels, according to Hennessey - and gets to 60 mph in 3.9 seconds on its way to running the quarter-mile in 12.6 seconds.
There's more than just a Roots-type supercharger bolt-on, with ported cylinder heads and high-flow headers among the many changes made to the engine. You can watch this pre-2014 facelift silver model prove its spec sheet on the drag strip in the video below.

Marchionne defends FCA recalls, says Wrangler won't be all-aluminum

Fri, May 22 2015

FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne recently received the 2015 Industry Leadership Award from the SAE Foundation. While speaking with the press after the event, the boss discussed his thoughts about some key issues regarding the company's future. One of the big regulatory issues facing FCA at the moment is the upcoming public hearing by the National Highway Traffic Safety into the automaker's handling of 20 recalls. Marchionne has no intention of testifying there, according to The Detroit News. The CEO also thinks that the government regulator is becoming much more aggressive in how it handles safety campaigns, but the Feds aren't necessarily doing a very good job of communicating that. "We need to work with the agency in a very cooperative and open way to make sure that we can meet their requirements for their new stance," he said, according to the newspaper. "We have no option but to comply with their requirements and we will. I have nothing to hide in this process. I just want clear rules." Marchionne also dropped the news that the company has changed its mind about making the next Jeep Wrangler totally from aluminum. "Because of the difference in cost, not just the new material but the actual assembly process, I think we can do almost as well without doing it all-aluminum," he said to The Detroit News. This seemingly opens the door for the model to remain in production in Toledo, OH, but only just a crack. Marchionne says that the new Wrangler would still use a large amount of aluminum, and there are "at least" two sites in contention for the assembly. The company doesn't have too long to make a decision because the model reportedly launches in 2017.
