1969 Jeep (Kaiser) Wagoneer. Very desirable Series 1. Avocado Mist Green. Rebuilt but original Buick 350 (For those of you that don't know, Kaiser used Buick motors in the jeeps they produced). Stock rebuild with 2 BBL carb 230HP and 350FTLBS torque. Has electric fan installed. Turbo 400 trans (rebuilt) and Dana 20 transfer case. Stock axles with 3.73 gears and Power drum brakes. Very original body with a repaint in the past. The clearcoat is faded and has the perfect patina. There is a small amount of rust behind the rear tires. Please look at pics. The floors are solid only having some pitting which was sanded and treated with rust dissolver then painted. The interior is amazing. All original dashboard with am radio (not working). New carpet and custom floor mats. Interior Lights work, heat, fan etc. Rear seat is original, only the front  seat has been upholstered with new foam and springs.  However I did reuse some of the original material on the seat back to make it match the rear. I also made custom rear compartment panels with access doors and a light and 12V outlet. The door panels are in amazing shape only requiring a lower kick panel carpet (also custom made). The original headliner is also 98% perfect. The rear window is power. It works great going down, but does require some help getting back up.

The suspension has been lifted 4" with New Alcan springs (one of the best in the business) and longer shackles in front. All new Rancho shocks and steering stabilizer. I mounted a set of original (my personal stash) Kelsey Hayes 15x9 Wheels. These are the early production riveted ones. They have been sand blasted and powder coated white. They have a new set of 31x10.50x15 Falken Radials. I did have to run 1.5 billet wheel spacers to clear the brakes. For safety I welded in longer wheel studs on all 4 corners. You can tell at some point the drivers front tire had come loose and dented the fender. I ground out the bondo, used a body hammer and dolly, straitened the spot and never repainted it. I like the way it looks, however you people who live in rust areas will probably want to paint that spot. The previous owner did install a later model Wagoneer roof rack. I personally don't like it on this truck so I removed it. It will be included in the sale. There are bolts in the roof where it was mounted. They do not leak, but they are there (so you know).

The motor and drivetrain are all stock other than a 2.5" custom exhaust with a Flowmaster muffler. Has a great sound. Not to loud but sounds like a 70's Buick muscle car. This Wagoneer gets thumbs up everywhere I go. I do love the patina. However I am offering this up for sale pre-paint and body. I do have a set of lower rear quarter replacement panels that I will include with the sale if the buyer wants them. 

This Jeep runs great!! drives smooth and strait. Sounds awsome and the trans shifts firm. The 4WD works great also. She is a Blast to cruise in and take four wheeling!! It has been in the desert many times!! Has the paint and scratched to prove. However it does have DRUM brakes. They are powered but still stops like a drum brake vehicle. BJ's Offroad does offer a disk brake conversion for the front brakes. If you think that this is something you would like, we can figure a price for the parts and labor and I can install before shipping the vehicle.

Please note that the underside has NOT been spray-bombed in black. This is original and unpainted and CLEAN!! There are also factory chalk marks on the side of dash and under hood!! The title reads 0 miles (yes zero). Typical Arizona DMV stuff. The odo reads 25k but no proof of mileage. She seems to be a LOW mileage rig, based on the interior and undercarriage.

I am offering pre-paint for someone wanting that Patina look @ $9500.00 Add a green skirt hula dancer on the dash and a surfboard rack and your set!!

I do restore Jeeps, I am not a dealer but more of a out of control hobbyist. Please look at my website.

Shipping is up to the buyer. I will deliver the Jeep to any shipping company in the Phoenix area at no charge. I do require a 500.00 non refundable deposit within 24 hrs of close of deal. I will accept paypal for the deposit only. Remainder of the payment must be in cashiers check, money order or we can set up a wire transfer into a temp account. The Jeep does not leave my possession until funds have cleared the account. I have sold and shipped Jeeps all over the US with great success. I have described this rare Wagoneer as best I can. It is a old Jeep so expect it to be so. BUT MAN WHAT A WONDERFULL JEEP!!!  A true addition to anyone's collection. Please do not hesitate to call with any questions. I can also send pics of any areas you wish to see.

Thanks again. Please look at my website and Call if you have any questions

NHTSA closes investigation on 4.7M FCA power modules, no recall

Thu, Jul 30 2015

FCA US hasn't had the best time with recalls as of late. Not only did the company recently agree to greater safety oversight and paid $105 million to the government, that came just days after hacking fears prompted a 1.4-million model recall campaign. However, a recent decision to close an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration means that the automaker doesn't have to worry about another major recall possibly affecting 4.7 million vehicles, according to the agency's report (as a PDF). Last September, the Center for Auto Safety petitioned NHTSA to investigate an alleged problem with the totally integrated power module (TIPM) on these FCA US models. The group claimed that a fault with the component could cause a variety of maladies, including stalls, not starting, catching fire, unintended acceleration, and airbag non-deployment. At the time, it also submitted 70 cases where this had reportedly happened. According to NHTSA, "no valid evidence was presented in support of claims related to airbag non-deployment, unintended acceleration, or fire resulting from TIPM faults and these claims were found to be wholly without merit based on review of the field data and design of the relevant systems and components." The agency did find signs of an issue with the fuel pump relay in some Jeep Grand Cherokees and Dodge Durangos, but FCA US issued recalls for the problem in September 2014 and February 2015. Without anything else to go on, the Feds don't think it's worth investigating this topic any more.

2016 Jeep Wrangler to ditch solid axles to save weight?

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

Hey, Jeep fans. If you think the idea of a funky-looking, car-based Cherokee revival is offensive, have a listen to what might be in store for the next-gen Jeep Wrangler. Automotive News is reporting that as Jeep develops the 2016 Wrangler, weight reduction is a crucial target, and the Wrangler's rugged solid axles could be sacrificed in the name of better fuel economy.
We've already heard the next Wrangler will go on a serious diet using aluminum body panels and an air suspension system, so the idea of a four-wheel independent suspension setup for this OG SUV isn't all that surprising. Besides, it's not like an independent suspension would limit the Wrangler's off-road abilities - just check out the Hummer H1. In fact, it might be the aftermarket parts companies - not Wrangler enthusiasts - who would be most disappointed by such a drastic suspension change, as the article states that the Wrangler's solid axles and coil-link suspension make it the most popular SUV for customization.
There are probably still a couple years before we'll start hearing any concrete details about the 2016 Wrangler, at which time it will be interesting to see how stricter fuel economy and crash safety regulations have been balanced with traditional Wrangler cues like its removable doors and roof and folding windshield. Let us know in the comments below if a Wrangler sans solid axles is any less of a Wrangler.
