 1982 Jeep CJ 7 Renegade:

Tons of work completed! Very little rust for an '82. Lots of body work completed, but understand I was not going for a full resto, more of a solid daily wheeler you could drive to and from the mountains. Undercarriage was cleaned and sealed w/ POR15 rust preventive paint. Original color and original "Renegade" Sticker on the hood... It's distinctive. Awesome Jeep, but after 8 years it needs a new home.

The Good -

- TBI fuel Injection w/ stock GM Ignition Coil
- Clifford Performance High Flow Intake Manifold
- Clifford Performance Headers into 2-1/4" Exhaust... Awesome exhaust note!
- Rebuilt 5spd Transmission (T5)
- Refreshed and Re-sealed Dana 300 Transfer Case
- Fully Rebuilt Front and Rear Diffs
- Rear Ox Locker
- 2" Pro Comp Lift w/ MX6 adjustable shocks
- J20 Power Steering Gear Box Upgrade
- 31" Studded Snow Tires, drives great in the snow and wet
- Chevy Blazer Heat Blower Motor Upgrade
- CD w/ Aux Jack and good Speakers
- Grey Bikini Top
- Grey Bestop Soft Top
- Full Hard Doors
- Full Soft Doors (tan color)

The Bad -

- No Emissions Equipment, i.e. it probably will not pass.
- Fuel Gauge Doesn't work & the Speedo only works to 35mph.
- Motor was Freshly Rebuilt about 2000 miles ago, BUT if it is warm and idles for about 5 min w/out driving it will start to smoke. Compression was tested and is an even 120-125psi across all cylinders.

That Said, I just drove it 250 miles through the mountains w/ out an issue and no noticeable oil use and wouldn't be afraid to do so again.

I would love to keep the Jeep, but I had to purchased a truck for work and the Jeep needs to go.

 As with most built Jeeps.. well over $10K in parts, maintenance, and upgrades.

I am Located in Central Denver, CO.  Buyer would be responsible for shipping or pick-up of the vehicle.

Jeep Renegade gets Riptide and Frostbite customs at SEMA

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

The cute little Jeep Renegade isn't even on sale yet, but here at SEMA, the Mopar folks are giving us a taste of what's possible for the little CUV in the big wide world of customization. Part of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' massive SEMA spread, the Renegade shows up in fresh Riptide and and Frostbite guises.
First up, the Riptide arrives in Vibrance Grandeur Blue with black wheels and a big ol' Jeep Performance Parts logo on the rear pillar. There are a few black accents elsewhere on the exterior, and a surfboard carrier rides up on the roof. The blue color scheme also finds its way inside the Renegade, on the instrument cluster and side panels, with contrasting white accents.
By contrast, the Frostbite Renegade reverses the Riptide's color scheme, with white being the main paint of choice, with blue accents abound. And inside, Katzkin seats wear blue upholstery. The Frostbite is a pretty functional creation, as well, with a Mopar ski/snowboard roof rack and a Jeep Performance Parts rock rail guard.

Ford leads top searched-for car brands on Google in 2014

Mon, Dec 22 2014

With less than two weeks until 2014 takes its final bow, anyone and everyone is looking back on the past 50 or so weeks to see how they stacked up. For search giant Google, that means its time to check out its annual Trends report. Besides the most popular search term (the late, great Robin Williams), the most searched for gadget (the iPhone 6) and most searched for disease symptoms (quite worryingly, Ebola took the crown here), we have the most searched for automaker. With the long-awaited sixth-generation of one of America's most iconic vehicles, the Mustang, and a ground-breaking update for the US market's perennial best seller, the F-Series, it should come as no surprise at all that Ford was Google's most searched for automaker in 2014. Jeep captured second place, while Dodge, took third. We suspect introducing a pair of cars with 707 horsepower had something to do with that bronze medal... Scroll down to see the rest of this year's most searched for automakers, and then head into Comments and let us know if you're surprised by any of these. This content is hosted by a third party.

2014 Jeep Patriot and Compass ditch CVT for six-speed auto

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

It was reported in Automotive News a few months ago, but a new report on Allpar.com adds some details to news that the 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot will get a six-speed automatic to replace the CVTs they currently use. According to a tip provided to Allpar, the 2014 models will begin production in March and be on sale sometime in the summer. The Jatco-sourced CVT in use until now - Jatco is owned by Nissan and Mitsubishi - has been often criticized, and many won't be sad to see it go.
The incoming six-speed automatic is said to be an all-wheel-drive cog-swapper that's the work of Hyundai and Magna and has been paired with the DynaMax AWD system used in the Hyundai ix35 and Kia Sportage. It won't be the only Chrysler product using a transmission with ties to Hyundai: the six-speed automatic in the Dodge Dart comes from Powertech, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hyundai. With the Patriot and Compass said to be driving down the trail for the last time this year, it will be a short run for the new tranny and the rumored addition of a backup camera and power rear liftgate on the Compass.
