T Case: NP231

Rear Axle: AMC20HD out of same 85 Jeep Grand Wagoneer, factory one-piece axle shafts, thick wall tubes, 3.331 gears, lincoln locked.

Wheels & tires:  15x10 aluminum rims, 6 x 5.5 bolt pattern.  38x12.50-15LT Super Swamper TSL's in like new condition, with no rips, tears, holes, plugs, dry rot, etc.

Body: Floor boards were replaced with actual panels, and done properly.  No rust anywhere else on the Jeep.  Body was stripped to bare metal and painted, not show quality by any means, but looks decent.  There are a few runs, etc.  The inside was scrubbed, sanded and bed lined.  All seats are in pretty good condition, with black "Jeep" seat covers over the fronts.  Two rear seats included, one black (matches the front seats) and one grey.

Frame:  One of the cleanest I have seen around here, near perfect condition. 

Armor:  I built a Bumper and some rock sliders, not quite poison spyder quality, but pretty decent either way.  The bumper currently is not set up for a winch, but I made it so a winch plate could be added later very easily.


I did not install the Engine, transmission/transfer case into the Jeep.  I do not know how many miles are on any of those components, but the Jeep does run well and I have driven it around my yard in all gears ( transmission and t-case).  The carb could use some adjustments, I think it runs a little rich and the electric choke does not work properly, I do have a manual choke conversion included though.  I just replaced the battery a month or so ago with a new Duralast one.  Oil was just changed, air filter changed.  Axles were disassembled, cleaned and painted before installation, with new gaskets/seals as needed, and fresh 80/90 gear oil.  When stripping the interior out of it, the bolts for the rear seat broke, and I did not finish removing them as of this ad, but two rear seats are included, just not installed.  The seatbelts have not been reinstalled either, I was going to ad onto the cage and install harnesses.  The factory clock is the only factory gauge that works, but aftermarket oil pressure and water temp gauges are installed and work properly.  The windshield is cracked, from top to bottom, on the passenger side.  I do have a good condition windshield that is included to replace it.  I have a set of LED back up lights and a horn included that need to be installed also.  It does have a white hard top in pretty good condition, and green hard doors in pretty good condition included also.  I have more pictures, please send me an email address if you would like more pictures sent to you.


I do have a fair amount of extra parts included, IE: driveshafts, soft tops and hardware, sway bar, half doors color matched to the Jeep, 2 sets of soft uppers one zipper window one sliding window, both in ok shape, bikini top and some other stuff I can't remember right now.  Depending on the sale price, I have a set of 4.88 gears, and a carrier that could be included. 


Jeep is listed locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime without prior notice to anyone.  Jeep is for local pick up only, but delivery could possibly be worked out.  Please contact me prior to bidding if you wish to ship.  I reserve the right to cancel any bids, for any reason.  Please contact me with any questions, comments or concerns.  Thank you and happy bidding!

Watch this 840-hp Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 walk away from GT-Rs and M3s

Thu, Dec 11 2014

This last-generation Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 does things that SUVs just shouldn't be able to do, like win drag races against tuned Nissan GT-R and BMW M3 coupes. Granted, the owner isn't coming into this fight with a stock Jeep – far from it. In addition to twin turbos whistling away, he says the engine is a 449-cubic-inch V8, which is nearly 7.4 liters of displacement. As it runs here, the driver claims that the turbos are pumping out around 14 psi of boost to give an estimated 840 horsepower. What's more, he further maintains the powertrain could reach around 1,200 hp with things fully cranked up. Even somewhat dialed back, this Jeep is ready to take on a breadth of formidable challengers, including a couple of Chevrolet Corvette models and a Lamborghini Aventador. Check out the video to see how this menacing Grand Cherokee fares in a day at the races.

Auto critic calls out Corvette, Mustang and Cherokee faithful

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

Most automotive purists fear change, but not without reason. Change, after all, did kill big-block V8s, along with most station wagons and manual transmissions. But change has also brought with it far more performance, safety and fuel economy - not to mention ridding the world of shag carpet interiors, bias-ply tires and those horrible motorized seatbelts of the early '90s.
By this time next year, the Chevy Corvette, Jeep Cherokee and next-generation Ford Mustang will all be on sale and will all, in some way, have angered or offended purists. To those critics, Mark Phelan of the Detroit Free Press is preemptively telling them to stop complaining - at least until they've all been driven. From the Corvette's square taillights and the Cherokee's radical nose to whatever pony car purists will harp on the 2015 Mustang for, Phelan's column points out the positives of automotive evolution and the negatives of staying the course for too long. That's fair enough, but do you think Phelan is on point, or all wet? Head on over to the Detroit Free Press to read his words, then have your say in Comments.

What will Detroit do with the abandoned AMC headquarters?

Mon, Dec 28 2015

As with so many other industrial and residential properties in Detroit, the former headquarters for the American Motors Corporation is having a hard time finding a reputable buyer. In October the Wayne County Treasurer held a tax foreclosure auction of 25,000 properties that included the AMC building, the starting bid being $500. Nicholas Casab won the building for $500, but the county voided the sale when Casab didn't pay the $232,000 in back property taxes. Detroit authorities haven't commented on the failed sale, but the city has until January 4 to decide if it wants to keep the building. If it doesn't want to hold onto it, the 1.5-million-square-foot property on 57 acres might be ceded to the Wayne County Land Bank Corporation. No matter who holds the deed come January 5, all anyone really wants is for someone to take possession of the building who will actually turn it into something useful and viable. The property opened in 1927 as a factory for the Kelvinator Corporation. Over the following decades, Kelvinator merged with the Nash Motor Company, and that merged entity merged with Hudson Motor Car Co, becoming American Motors. Chrysler took over the building in 1987 when it bought AMC, then shuttered it in 2009. The complex has produced refrigerators, Sikorsky helicopters, Jeeps, AMCs, and was used as an engineering center for Jeeps and other Chrysler products. Having been through several hands in the past six years, it is cited as part of the cycle of abandonment plaguing Detroit.
