Like any vehicle driven regularly there are a few dings and things that can be replaced, I will list everything you may be concerned about below and I will be critical First, the speedometer and fuel gauge don't currently work, I do have a replacement unit that should work by replacing and mixing current parts. Steel doors and full soft top have never been installed, although I have all the hardware and frame, it will need put together. I also have a family style roll bar from a YJ that needs painted and a full fiberglass hard top with a sun roof and lift gate that needs a little repair and paint. I will throw these in at the right price. A small crack is about to form in the drivers seat and a Levi's button is missing. There are a few chips in the paint from interstate driving and a nice sized scratch in the drivers side rocker panel (photo included). Emergency brake has never been hooked up and I've not taken the time to clean up the wiring under the hood so one may want to organize that. Shocks are older and would make a nicer ride if replaced: myself nor my wife mind the ride so it's not terrible. There is no air conditioning and I have never ran the heater, heater coil was bypassed many years ago. Since the last paint job, I have replaced the following. Professionally Rebuilt Edlebrock 4-barrel carburetor. All lighting and light wiring, Battery,solenoid, alternator and starter are all new along with some electrical wiring. Breather/air intake and valve covers, radiator reservoir are new along with the master cylinder. Drum brakes work great and have been serviced. Windshield is new along with a mirror and an interior matching console is included. This is a nice jeep that you can ride from 10mph to 85mph with no worries. I had a value placed on it from a local vintage dealer and he valued it at $10k as you see photographed, NADA books it at an average value of $8,500 with a 304 or larger motor so you will not be disappointed in what you get with this purchase. Text or call with questions, I have a short video of me starting, revving and walking around the jeep as it idles I can send you along with any additional picture requests. 304-545-0455

2014 Jeep Cherokee musters 22 MPG city, 31 highway
Thu, 05 Sep 2013Production and media drive delays included, there has been no lack of press surrounding the 2014 Jeep Cherokee. With the most recent delay reportedly due to powertrain calibrations, we've been waiting to see how the Cherokee's fuel economy looks against the highly competitive compact CUV segment. Thanks to the EPA, we now know the fuel economy figures for the newest member of the Jeep family.
Arguably, the Cherokee has the most modern powertrain in its class with an updated base engine, all-new V6 and all-new nine-speed automatic transmission, but its fuel economy figures are simply on par for the segment. Still nothing to scoff at, though. According to fueleconomy.gov, front-wheel-drive Cherokee models with the base four-cylinder mill will top out the lineup with 22 miles per gallon in the city and 31 mpg on the highway; opting for four-wheel drive with this engine drops the figures to 21 city and 28 highway. Get even crazier with the option list, and the new 3.2-liter Pentastar V6 will get you 19 mpg city and 28 mpg highway in two-wheel-drive form or 19 city and 27 highway for 4WD.
If you're wondering how that stacks up among compact CUVs, head on over to Automobile Magazine for a full fuel economy breakdown for the segment. The controversially styled crossover hits dealers this month, and we'll be driving it in just a couple of weeks.
SEMA crowns Mustang, FR-S as this year's hottest cars in the building
Wed, 31 Oct 2012After wrapping up the first day of the 2012 SEMA Show, organizers handed out awards for some of the trendiest vehicles on display. Since the whole point of SEMA is to show off new products available in the aftermarket world for use in cars, trucks and SUVs, each year, the show distinguishes the most popular vehicle in various segments. Not surprisingly, this year's Hottest Car and Hottest Sport Compact are the Ford Mustang and Scion FR-S, respectively, while the Ford F-Series brought home the Hottest Truck and the Jeep Wrangler was named the Hottest 4x4-SUV.
More than 2,000 companies are at this year's show, and the display booths represents a "vote" for each car to determing the trendiest vehicles in each of the four categories. It isn't clear if these awards also take cars brought by OEMs into account, but the Mustang and FR-S were definitely well represented by both OEM and aftermarket show versions.
As usual, the OEMs showed up in force at the this year's SEMA Show exhibiting a variety of cars ranging from production-intent cars like the beastly Ford Mustang Cobra Jet to much flashier rides like Scion's Carbon Stealth FR-S.
Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards
Tue, 27 Nov 2012Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
