This is a 1963 Willys CJ 5. It also may be a Military Jeep M38-A1. It has the 24 volt battery cover on the cowl but other items like the headlight bezels and the glove box may mean it was not Military. At any rate it does have a strong running 4-134 F Head Motor. It has the Warn overdrive and a two speed Dana 18 transfer case. The Jeep has been converted to 12 volt. The engine starts and the Jeep is drivable except for the brakes. The brakes have lost all pressure and I believe it has a bad wheel cylinder on the front passenger side. I expect that it would be a easy repair. I have not taken the wheel off to check. I purchased the Jeep to restore it but I may not ever get to it. In the photos you can see that the air cleaner is missing. I have purchased an old original oil bath for it off e-bay but it has not arrived yet. The floor looks to have been replaced a some point. There is some rust on each side and a wrinkled area behind the passenger front fender and on the drivers right fender. The jeep is basically all there and is restorable. I do not think it would take much to make it road worthy. I drove it up and down the street today and checked all the gears and transfer case and all seemed ok. Even the overdrive works. The turn signals work and the head lights. There is only one motor for the wipers on the drivers side and it works. It comes with the supports for the soft top. The top that was on it when I got it was trashed. I do have some soft doors that go with it that are not bad. I have tried to take some good photos but if you have any questions let me know. Please arrange for your own shipping. 801-259-1194 Thanks Tom

Fiat 500X poised for Paris catwalk
Wed, 05 Feb 2014We've known for some time that the new, Fiat-based baby Jeep (which may or may not be called the Jeepster) is set to arrive at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show. What we weren't sure of was whether its platform mate, the so-called Fiat 500X, would be doing so alongside or at a later date. Well, according to Reuters, we'll get to see the first all-wheel-drive 500 later this year in the City of Lights.
Yes, we can expect the 500X to arrive at the 2014 Paris Motor Show, according to an official with an Italian trade union. The unnamed source cited retooling at Fiat's Melfi factory, in southern Italy, which currently produces the Grande Punto. It's expected that the newest member of the growing 500 family will replace the Suzuki SX4-based Fiat Sedici, although when the X will go on sale remains an open question.
According to Reuters, both the Jeepster and 500X will be built alongside each other in Italy. Whether the 500X will cross the pond with it's slat-grilled cousin, though, remains to be seen (we're leaning towards yes).
Chrysler investing $20M in Toledo plant to support 9-speed auto production
Sun, 28 Apr 2013In 2011, Chrysler announced a $72-million investment in its Toledo Machining Plant to modernize production of the eight- and nine-speed torque-converters for automatic transmissions made there. That upgrade work won't be finished until Q3 of this year, but Chrysler has already announced a further $19.6-million investment to increase production capacity for the nine-speeders.
The extra units will be necessary because the nine-speed transmission they'll be mated to is going into three popular models: it will debut on the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, then go into the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Dart. The company predicted that this year alone it would sell 200,000 units equipped with the nine-speed tranny, and it is spending some $374 million in addition to the investment in Toledo to upgrade production capacity for it.
The work attached to this new investment won't begin until Q3 of 2014, and it will be finished by the end of that year. There's a press release below with all the details.
First Jeepster prototype spotted with final, boxy form
Thu, 23 Jan 2014The long-awaited baby Jeep is getting closer to production, as evidenced by these spy photos. Previously, the only images of the so-called Jeepster saw it wearing a Fiat 500L body (see below), while this new batch of photos show hefty amounts of camouflage. How is that better? Well, it's very likely there's a production body hiding under all that cladding.
While picking out styling details is virtually impossible thanks to all the camo, as our spies point out, this gives us a very sound idea of the Jeepster's final size. It's small, although we'd argue that it's only slightly smaller than the current Jeep Patriot, based on the images of the newest Jeep sitting in front of an Alfa Romeo Giulietta.
As we reported previously, this little bambino will be built on a Fiat platform, but the styling should be uniquely Jeep - likely to include a somewhat vertical seven-slat grille and round headlights. We can expect to see a production Jeepster, if that ends up being the actual name (Latitude has been rumored, although as that's traditionally a trim level, we imagine there'd be some confusion), when it debuts at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show.
