1964 Jeep Wagoneer 4x4, 4-door, Chevrolet Small Block Sbc on 2040-cars
San Luis Obispo, California, United States
1964 Jeep Wagoneer 4x4 A running project, this 1964 Jeep Wagoneer has a chevrolet small block installed with two barrel rochester carburetor. The rest of the drivetrain consists of a T-86 three speed manual floor shift transmission, Dana 20 transfer case, and Borg Warner R10 (Rancho) overdrive. The overdrive is attached on the rear driveshaft only and will only function in two wheel drive. A larger than stock gas tank was installed at some point, but otherwise the rest of the chassis is stock. This jeep is all manual (no power steering, no power brakes, no power windows). Recently, the radiator was thoroughly cleaned (top tank removed, rod tubes, re-solder, leak tested, and painted). Other new parts:
Engine: The engine is a Chevrolet small block with deck suffix XCB (service replacement CE0A02T), the cylinder heads are late 60's double hump castings. I have found different information for the XCB code and it is either a 327 or a 350, but I don't know for sure. It is mounted to the chassis using a Hurst motor mount; this engine was installed in the late 1970's according to a previous owner. The engine runs well, sometimes a little puff of oil smoke when it starts. Exhaust exits through ram's horn manifolds and dual glasspacks. The exhaust system is old and not very pretty underneath, but does not have any noticeable leaks. Transmission: The transmission is a rebuilt T86 three speed, however the reverse gear does not work. This transmission was rebuilt by a gentleman in the Bay Area and was installed by myself, I have pulled the top cover on the transmission and could not find any obvious internal issue why reverse does not work (the shift fork was engaged, the gears appear to be in perfect shape although I cannot see the cluster gear to verify its condition). First gear does work, which is the same sliding gear as reverse (although reverse goes through the reverse idler). I would assume that the transmission needs to be removed and disassembled to fix this issue. The previously removed T86 comes with the jeep as well, although it is in very poor shape and I would assume that the only good part on it is the case and top plate. Body: The body has some rust as shown in the pictures. Part of the floorboards have been replaced (drivers side foot well), but the same spot on the passenger side needs to be replaced as well. There is also some rust along the edges of the floorboards near where they meet the body. The area behind the rear wheels needs to be replaced on both sides of the vehicle, and on the drivers side the area above the wheel has some small holes. On the roof, there is some rust in the drip rail on the front and back of the roof on both sides. It does not appear to go through the roof, on the drivers side only it was ground down to bare metal and was not through. There are some small bits of rust showing on the edge of the windshield gasket. Lastly, the area above the tailgate hinges has some rust. The only filler (bondo) that I can see on the body is in the tailgate. Another early tailgate is included, although it has other issues including a crease and bullet hole (but no rust). The extra tailgate also has the glass and winder mechanism. There is an extra set of bumpers that come with the truck as well. Two of the doors hinges are tight and will need some attention (maybe new pins). All doors and latches function. Interior: The interior needs to be completely redone. At some point, a later model interior was installed as shown in the pictures. Included is two rear seats (one early and one later model one) and one front bench seat (early model), there are door panels which are all late model. The window winder mechanism on the drivers side works, but the splines are damaged and will need attention. The headliner needs to be replaced and there are not any carpets. The dash is complete, but needs to be disassembled and repainted. Another heater control panel in very nice shape is also included. Other: The front axle is a dana 27, the rear is a dana 44. There are some unknown brand of locking hubs on the front axle, it has four wheel drum brakes. The wiring needs to be finished, a new fuse block was installed and some of the engine wiring was redone, but the majority of work still remains. When I acquired this jeep it had an electrical short and a lot of poor add-on wiring which I have completely removed, I did my best to keep the majority of the existing harness there. The tires have tread, but are cracked from age. There is a scratch on the front windshield where something got under the wiper blade on the passenger side. Extras: As previously mentioned, an extra tailgate, rear seat, transmission, bumper, heater control, and set of 4 centerline wheels are included. There are a few minor small parts that also come with the jeep. I will also offer a Muncie M20 transmission with adapter to Dana 18/20 transfer case and hurst shifter/linkage for an additional $500 on top of the auction close price to whoever purchases the Jeep if they would like it. Please note that this is a project car, and while I have done my best to accurately describe the condition there may be some small items that I missed. In-person inspection is recommended. Buyer is responsible for shipping, if required. $500 Deposit due within two days of auction close. Lastly, I reserve the right to end the auction early. |

2.1 million vehicles recalled again over faulty airbags
Sat, Jan 31 2015Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Honda and Toyota will recall 2.1 million vehicles to fix faulty airbag modules "after the manufacturers' original attempts to fix the defects proved ineffective in some vehicles." These vehicles had all previously been recalled, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that the airbags could still potentially malfunction. This recall will cover Acura MDX, Dodge Viper, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Honda Odyssey, Pontiac Vibe, Toyota Corolla, Toyota Matrix and Toyota Avalon models made in the early 2000s. NHTSA has reportedly received about 40 reports of airbag deployment in such vehicles, even though the vehicle had not been involved in a crash. Roughly one million of these same vehicles, all from Honda and Toyota, are also subject to recalls due to faulty Takata airbag modules, though this particular recall is for "an electronic component manufactured by TRW" that is separate from the actual airbags from Takata. According to NHTSA Administrator Mark Rosekind: "This is unfortunately a complicated issue for consumers, who may have to return to their dealer more than once. But this is an urgent safety issue, and all consumers with vehicles covered by the previous recalls should have that remedy installed. Even though it's a temporary solution until the new remedy is available, they and their families will be safer if they take the time to learn if their vehicle is covered and follow their manufacturers' instructions. A hassle is much better than a family tragedy." If you're the owner of an affected car, expect to hear more from the official automaker and government channels in short order. In the meantime, we'd suggest getting your car checked and fixed at your local dealer. The official statement and recall information can be found below. Previously Recalled Vehicle Remedies Not Working as Designed; NHTSA Announces Follow up Recall of 2.12 Million Cars and SUVs Saturday, January 31, 2015 Contact: Gordon Trowbridge, 202-366-9550, Public.Affairs@dot.gov WASHINGTON – U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx announced today the recall of more than 2.12 million Acura, Dodge, Jeep, Honda, Pontiac, and Toyota vehicles for a defect that may cause airbags to deploy inadvertently. The recalls will provide vehicle owners with a new remedy after the manufacturers' original attempts to fix the defects proved ineffective in some vehicles.
FCA's Pentastar V6 gets more power, efficiency for 2016
Wed, Sep 2 2015Already a vital member of FCA's powertrain lineup, the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 is receiving major efficiency improvements for 2016. Thanks to a massive amount of new tech attached to the mill, fuel economy is up six percent, and torque below 3,000 rpm jumps nearly 15 percent. The updates arrive first in the 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee, but they should proliferate to other models eventually. At least in the Grand Cherokee, the tweaks push power up five horsepower to 295 ponies. FCA's engineers went through the Pentastar from top to bottom to eke out as much efficiency as possible. For example, there's now a two-speed variable-valve lift system that can run in low- or high-lift modes. This upgrade is responsible for 2.7-percent better economy, the company claims. A new intake manifold with longer runners and updated variable-valve times also helps boost the torque output. Further improvements come from pushing the compression ratio to 11.3:1, from 10.2:1 before. Perhaps most impressive is that despite all of the innovations, the latest Pentastar actually weighs four pounds less than the current version. Beyond the Pentastar improvements, all of the FCA US gasoline engines, except for the Viper's 8.4-liter V10, will be E15-compatible for 2016. The company says that it wants to be ready for the higher ethanol content fuel's greater use in the near future.
Fiat Chrysler to get $105M fine from NHTSA for recall woes
Sun, Jul 26 2015The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is about to send a powerful message to automakers doing business in the United States, assuming reports of an upcoming $105 million fine against Fiat Chrysler Automobiles comes to fruition. In addition to the record-setting monetary fine, according to The Wall Street Journal, FCA will have to accept an independent auditor that will monitor the company's recall and safety processes and will be forced to buy back certain recalled vehicles. In other cases, such as with Jeep Grand Cherokee and Liberty models with gas tanks that could potentially catch fire in certain types of accidents, FCA will offer financial encouragement for owners to get their recall work done or to trade those older vehicles in on new cars, according to the report. FCA could reportedly reduce its fines if it meets certain conditions, though those remain unclear at this time. These actions against FCA are being taken after NHTSA began a probe into the automaker over almost two dozen separate instances where the government claims FCA failed to follow proper procedures for recalls and safety defects. Included in those safety lapses are more than 11 million vehicles currently in customer hands. These penalties and fines are separate from the investigation over security problems with Chrysler's Uconnect system that allowed hackers to obtain remote access into key vehicle systems in 1.4 million vehicles.
