1974 Jeep Cj 5 Cj-5 Cj5 Barn Find Survivor 33k Miles Good Body T18 on 2040-cars
Kingston, Pennsylvania, United States
|
Selling my 1974 CJ5. This thing is a true untouched running / driving, survivor. Even better its a Northeast Jeep with no major rust rot or body work. Original floors not rotted not repaired, original paint. 33k original miles, clean clear title. This is registered, insured inspected , and driven.
Body does have some stress cracks, dings/ scratches, minor surface rust, a small rust hole ( pictured)on passenger rocker, and some spray can / brush touch ups, but all and all about as original as you can get. Tailgate is rust free, passenger under seat toolbox rust free! Don't expect a show jeep, but either a great driver or an excellent candidate for a restore, as most everything that came on it is still on it and works. Motor runs great 258 straight 6 , starts easy, idles good, etc. Original 1 bbl Carter YF carb. 4x4 works, T18 granny low 4 speed shifts good. Transfer case is greasy / oily but it doesnt leave any puddles or drips when its parked. New Bestop front seats, and a new Bestop bikini. Gauges all work, including fuel gauge! Heat/ defrost work , but can use new control cables. Horn even works! Rear tail lights not currently connected. I replaced the broken originals with 76-86 CJ tail lights and didnt hook them up yet. Original wiring/ connections still in tact if you want to put the early round ones back on. Headlights do work. Underneath, it has brand new 2.5" BDS springs, grease able shackles,, ( originals were completely flattened out), braided stainless brake hoses, new shoes, wheel cyls, etc. new parking brake cables come with it. 32x11.5-15 BFG AT Tires with approx 70% tread even wear. Factory CJ Wagon wheels. Frame was cracked and plated , on both sides, ( see pic) but that's pretty common on these older CJs, good solid repair, should not have any issues. There is no rot on the frame. Has plow frame and pump. Pump isn't hooked up, I never tested it. No blade or undercarriage mount for plow. Everything works great on this jeep and it drives great for a 40 year old original. I really liked the patina so I kept it original. You can probably drive this anywhere, but it won't be a comfy ride. Manual steering, manual brakes. Windshield has some frosting from being old, but I have a good shape used glass that goes w/ jeep. No other top than bikini, but I have the original Meyers hard top listed in an other auction. email me if you have any questions. I really planned on keeping this, because how many do you come across with a T18, and this kind of original shape, but too many other projects and work have been keeping me from enjoying it. Please don't bid if you can pay or pick up. Feedback less than 10 email me or ill block you and cancel your bid. If you have some crazy place you want it shipped or some plan for pickup, email before you bid please. Local pickup, but will work with a shipper- arrangements are up to you. |

Maserati Levante crossover not Jeep based after all?
Thu, 20 Feb 2014Maserati has been teasing its crossover project since 2011, which is when it first showed off the Kubang concept (pictured above). Still, the production version, rumored to be called the Levante, remains a complete mystery. The CUV was first rumored to borrow the platform from the Jeep Grand Cherokee, but new rumors indicate that the Italian, luxury crossover might actually take the underpinnings from the Quattroporte and Ghibli.
In a brief interview, Maserati CEO Harald Wester told CNN Money that the Levante wouldn't use Jeep's platform. Motor Trend spoke with an unnamed Maserati engineer who confirmed the rumor. Officially, the company says that no decision has been made.
We can add this to another long list of rumors about the Italian CUV. It was originally supposed to be built at Chrysler's Jefferson North assembly plant in Detroit. Then, plans were changed to build it in Italy.
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.
Jeep Grand Cherokee in headliner fire probe
Fri, 23 Aug 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching an investigation into 146,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs from the 2012 model year, The Detroit News reports. This comes as the result of the government safety agency receiving three complaints from owners who cited fires inside the Jeep's cabin.
According to the report, NHTSA says:
"The customers reported a burning odor and visible smoke coming from the headliner while the vehicle was being driven. This was followed by flames from the headliner itself. Customers lowered the windows in an effort to clear the smoke but this increased the fire's intensity. All three vehicles had to be extinguished with a fire extinguisher or by the fire department as they continued to burn after the vehicle was turned off."
