BEND, OREGON Rust-Free SURVIVOR!!!
1986 Jeep Grand Wagoneer with ONLY 103,581 ORIGINAL miles on it.
*FRESH ENGINE REBUILD & BRAND NEW TIRES!*
Not only is it rust free, having been safely garage kept since new in arguably the best single area in all the US to keep a classic car, it just got a totally Fresh overhauled/rebuilt engine! I just had 4 brand new Cooper OEM white-wall tires installed and balanced as well! Tires have only 10 miles on them and still have the new tire "rubber spikes" on the tread!

I sought out to find a clean one-of-a-kind desirable silver Grand Wagoneer and it took me a while, and had all the expensive items done to it as i planned to keep it for life and eventually hand off to my son (who is 2 at the moment) but i've since decided to purchase (in addition to my regular line of work) a service business my grandfather owns and now need the extra cash around for business emergencies. Sad but couldn't pass up the opportunity to continue a 3rd generation family business. I bought this car from the 2nd owner who was neighbors with the original owner so car lived on the same street from 1986 to 2014 in Bend, OR. I believe I have literally EVERY service receipt from everything that was ever done to the car, from oil changes to suspension parts replacements, the first owners took impeccable care having it maintained religiously by Jim Smolich JEEP in Bend, OR where it was purchased new (34 original receipts total to be exact).

EVERYTHING WORKS on this car: Power windows INCLUDING the rear power window work perfectly both ways (with the tailgate key or the button up front), Power locks, Cruise Control, 4WD, Power Seats, AM/FM Radio, Cassette Tape Player & Speakers, Dome lights, hi-beams, engine bay light.... Did i miss anything?

You can hook-up an iPod or your iPhone ect through the tape player with a cassette tape adapter ($2.99) and it works great! I love it because it keeps the car in its original form, but allows me to listen to my podcasts/music.

This car also has the famed "Retractable cargo area cover" still intact that are VERY rare!! They don't make them anymore so collectors love cars that have them.
Car shifts great as it should through the gears, great pick-up and power just like it rolled off the lot in '86! ZERO oil leaks, dry garage floor, no burning oil or exhaust leaks that i'm aware of or can hear. No cracks in windows/windshield, the dashboard area looks flawless with no scratches or cracks!

The total bill for the Engine Rebuild alone completed 9/4/14 was $3,566.03
Yes, there are cheaper alternatives but as you'll see from the list, it was done right, with a new cam, machine work, and done by a Jeep specialist who knows these engines and I wanted to build a car that I wouldn't have problems with/pay for later on. I have all the receipts to back up this work that will go with the car.

Here are the details of what has been done to the car summer 2014:

- New Radiator ($314)
- Engine Overhaul ($1,977.99)
- New Comp Camshaft installed (A8 260H-10, .447 Gross Valve Lift)
- New Water Pump
- Re-Sealed all oil-pan gaskets
- Re-Sealed Rear Main Seal w new gaskets $419 (often a problem with GWagoneers so just got it done)
- New Plug & Wire Set ($55.90)
- 2 New V-Belts ($39.98)
- New Curved Radiator Hose ($10.09)
- New K&N Style oil-less air filter
- New Air Valves
- All New Sparkplugs
- New Manifold Gaskets replaced
- New Oil filter and Oil Change
- Transmission flush
- Coolant Flush
- 4 Brand New Cooper White-wall OEM Tires (Only 10 miles on them!!) ($420)
- Wheel Balance and Alignment
- New Cold Air intake from Team Grand Wagoneer

Including the above items mentioned, this car comes with the following:
- Original window sticker from Jim Smolich Motors ($22,626 sticker price)
- Original Jeep Owners Manual with original owner's information filled in
- All documentation from Comp Camshafts/warranty info
- Tons of extra pictures from engine overhaul process
- Clean Wisconsin title ready to be signed over to new owner.

I am not afraid of ANYTHING on this car as I had it built/restored for the long haul, however it is not perfect. There is a small 2 inch size dent in the Driver rear back corner near tail light and a few minor nicks from stones as you'd expect from even a "newer" car with 100K on it. Also 3 or 4 small dents here and there between hood and rest of car, but are hard to find (see pictures). My family company buys and sells corporate aircraft for companies so we have to analyze the condition of what we're selling and communicate that to a buyer often. In my industry, this can be the difference in life or death as you can imagine so i try to be over-honest in how i present things. my hope is that you are more impressed with the car when you see it in person than what is depicted on EBAY! I'm not afraid of anything, this is a GREAT RELIABLE CAR, so bid with confidence! This one is a TRUE RUST-FREE SURVIVOR!!! These cars (especially ready-to-go like this) are not going down in value as many have been rusted out so here's your chance to own a low-mile "Late-Model" Grand Wagoneer that doesn't have the rust cancer throughout it's body. Below are 2 videos (Hopefully) that help illustrate the great condition of this Grand Wagoneer. 1 is a walk-around, the other is a quick test-drive around my neighborhood.

As I mentioned, I have a clean Wisconsin title in my hand, ready to be signed over to new owner.
I will help reasonably with any shipping requests but ultimately it's up to you.
Car is available for viewing prior to auction end if you want to see it.
Please email me with any questions through Ebay and GOOD LUCK!

Sergio rethinks FCA-GM merger idea, dismisses critics

Sat, Dec 5 2015

After many public overtures, Fiat Chrysler Automotive CEO Sergio Marchionne has claimed his company won't be making a hostile takeover bid for General Motors. This is despite widespread speculation that FCA's desire to merge was motivated by its allegedly dire situation. As one unnamed GM exec who spoke to Automotive News earlier this year put it, "Why should [GM] bail out FCA?" "We are not choking. We are in relatively decent shape," Marchionne told journalists attending an FCA shareholder meeting in Amsterdam, AN reports. "We have been publicly rebuffed, we have been rejected and you cannot force these things. I don't want to. At the moment, we have no intention to do anything hostile." Instead of focusing on merging with GM, or any other partners for that matter, FCA will refocus on implementing its ambitious five-year investment plan, which would see it dump $52 billion into its various brands, with a particular focus on Alfa Romeo, Maserati, and Jeep. So far the attempt has largely been unsuccessful, especially as it relates to the Italian brands. Earlier this week, additional reports emerged that claimed Alfa was pushing back the Giulia and an unnamed CUV while reassigning resources to updated versions of the Giulietta and MiTo hatchbacks. This is not the first time we've heard about trouble for the Giulia, of course. For Masearti, though, it was the first we'd heard of delays for Alfieri sports car, which allegedly won't appear in 2016, as promised. We can expect a proper breakdown of FCA's adjusted plans when Marchionne and Company reveal an updated product slate next month.

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.

Watch this R/C Jeep Wrangler plow snow

Mon, 06 Jan 2014

There's no denying the fact that the Jeep Wrangler is one tough and rugged vehicle, and there is apparently little lost when the SUV is shrunk down for a 1:10th scale radio-controlled version. Proving that the Axial SCX10 Jeep Wrangler is not your run-of-the-mill R/C car, YouTube user Andrew Dykiel posted a pair of videos showing it clear about an inch of snow from his sidewalk and driveway during a snow storm last month.
Starting at $379.99, the Axial SCX10 costs more than most budget snowblowers, but other than paying a neighbor kid to shovel your snow, this might be the best way for a car guy to clear snow without the need for hot chocolate and ibuprofen. Better yet, it's electric, so it's zero-emission answer to snow removal! Scroll down to see how this R/C Jeep can help "shovel" snow from the warmth of your sofa. We've also thrown in a bonus video showing the mini Jeep negotiating the Rubicon Trail.
