Second listing with lower reserve.

1979 Jeep CJ5 Golden Eagle.  This was an original Golden Eagle.  29,000 miles on the ticker?  I have the original gold spare wheel and tire that has never been on the pavement.  It had the tach and clock common to the upgrade.  It was repainted by the second owner.  It had new Golden Eagle decals at that time.  The jeep has power steering with a chrome power steering pump.  A new power disc brake kit from Collins Bros jeeps with slotted high performance rotors.  Jeep stops straight and drives great. No steering slop.   Original 3 speed T-150 transmission rebuilt with new synchronizers and bearing kit  Shifts like new. Dana 20 transfer case works great.  The jeep came originally with a 304 V8 which is available.  The engine was replaced with a Tuff Dawg 365hp AMC Jeep 360cid crate engine.  See their web site ($5,000) tuffdawgengines.com.  The engine only has a few hundred miles on it.  This is a Sunday driver that only gets out once or twice a month when it is pretty.  The jeep sounds great.  Impressive horsepower in a light weight vehicle.  Engine has a Powermaster chrome alternator.  Aluminum pulleys from bulltear.com.  New Holley Street Dominator Caburator.  Hooker ceramic coated headers.  Chrome Hooker side pipe mufflers not glass packs.  Sounds good but not too loud.  New Powermaster high torque starter. New centerforce clutch and pressure plate.  Mickey Thompson Classic Lock wheels with 33" ProComp tires.  Tires like new.  Bestop low back seats.  They just feel right in a vintage classic.  Retractable factory lap belts.  SS dash. The original dash was cut for speakers.  It looked bad so I replaced it.   All the gauges work!.  I sent the factory clock off and had it rebuilt for $200.  This is the original clock not aftermarket.  The color was off on the after market clock.  It has a factory oil and volt gauge.  Same deal, after market color doesn't match instrument cluster at night.   Fuel gauge works. Factory tach works.  The windshield washer works, see photo.  The parking brake light works.  It has Hella headlights with an upgraded relay wiring harness ket for them.  This is a slick kit.  Lights are brighter than new vehicle headlights.  If it is on the Jeep it works as good as or better than factory.  There is no rust on this Jeep.  It spends its life in a plush garage.  Bestop super top with the good doors that convert to half doors.  Bikini top.  I have only had the top on it a couple of times.  I only drive it when it is warm and pretty although the top and heater work great.  New high performance heater blower motor.  Too much to list.

  I didn't think I would ever sale it but I want to put the money in another airplane.  I am not a dealer, I am a jeep connoisseur.  I have owned one or another cj for the last 30 years.  I bought this jeep because it was the real deal, solid honest, factory V8, bullet proof 3 speed, dana 20, no rhino lined over rust jeep.  I just made it better.  Nothing to do to it but drive and enjoy.  evanmarble@bellsouth.net

Fiat Chrysler target 850k sales in China by 2018

Sun, 11 May 2014

Behind the vanguard of numerous Jeep models, two Chryslers, a smattering of Fiats and Alfa Romeos and local production through a joint venture with Guangzhou Automotive Group (GAG), Fiat Chrysler wants to increase sales in China more than six-fold by 2018. The group sold 130,000 cars in China in 2013, the aim for 2018 being 850,000 cars.
Ultimately it's expected that the Jeep Grand Cherokee, Cherokee, Wrangler, Renegade, the coming Grand Wagoneer and a sub-Renegade-sized crossover will either be built in or exported to the People's Republic. The Chrysler Town & Country and 300 will join the export list in 2016 and 2018 respectively, according to a report in Automotive News.
With a number of those vehicles not in production or perhaps even envisaged yet, and others not due on the local market until 2018, it will be interesting to see how Fiat Chrysler plans to achieve the target in the specified timeframe. The joint venture with GAG builds two products now, the Dodge Dart-based Fiat Viaggio launched two years ago - supposedly designed just for China - and the just-launched Fiat Ottimo, a hatchback version of the Viaggio. Fiat projected 300,000 Viagio sales in its first two years, that number has been adjusted downward to 94,000 and there doesn't appear to be an analyst alive that sees a good future for Fiat in China's overrun mainstream market. Still, last year's 130,000 group sales in China is a huge jump from 2012 sales of 66,000 units, but less than half the 300,000 units it projected.

2014 Jeep Cherokee flaunts its new contemporary curves

Wed, 27 Mar 2013


Only slightly more than one month ago, undisguised (and less-than-flattering) shots of the all-new 2014 Jeep Cherokee were leaked online. Later that day, in an effort to suppress the uprising, Jeep countered with its own official photography offering us much clearer front and three-quarter views. We've been left to digest those pictures for weeks.
Now, mere hours before the fabric comes sliding off its newest mid-size sport-utility at its live reveal at the New York Auto Show, Jeep has released dozens of new images showing all four corners, plus a few interior shots, of its new Cherokee.

Chrysler, Nissan looking into claim that their cars are industry's most hackable

Sun, 10 Aug 2014

A pair of cyber security experts have awarded the ignominious title of most hackable vehicles on American roads to the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, 2014 Infiniti Q50 and 2015 Cadillac Escalade.
Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek are set to release a report at the Black Hat hacking conference in Las Vegas, Automotive News reports. The two men found the Jeep, Caddy and Q50 were easiest to hack based not on actual tests with the vehicles, but a detailed analysis of systems like Bluetooth and wireless internet access - basically, anything that'd allow a hacker to remotely gain access to the vehicle's systems.
Considering this lack of hands-on testing, the pair acknowledge that "most hackable" could be a relative term - they point out that the vehicles may actually be quite secure.
