Up for sale is a nice barn find Jeep CJ7. It has been sitting under a shade tree for a few years and its alive again ready for someone to love it. I recently just put about $2000 in it. Heres some of the new parts: Tires(31x10.50x15), brake booster, cap, rotor, plugs wires, hoses, front brakes, shift boot, door handles, defroster duct, all new fluids, and more. I put front seats out of a YJ in it with seat covers. I will throw in the original front seats which match the back seat, which is very nice. Title says box B so I am unsure if the miles are original, but they could be.
Under the hood is a 258 6 cylinder engine with all the smog equipment on and functioning. It is matched up to a 3 speed transmission, and of course a transfer case with high and low. This Jeep features Warn hubs, power brakes, with disc in the front, power steering, air conditioning (works like a champ!), heater, and front and rear driving lights.
The AC works, the heater and defroster work, all lights work*, turn signals work, wipers, work, the air horn works, yes AIR HORN!, 4X4, works, gas gauge works, speedo works, oil pressure gauge works, volt gauge works, temp gauge works. Front and rear driving lights. Tinted windows on the hardtop. Factory rollbar. Comes with Chilton manual. The oil pressure at start up is 60 psi, drives at 40-60 psi, and idles at 20psi.
There is very little that does not work on this rig! Here it is as best as I can describe it: *The high beam indicator light does not work. The high and low beams work, just no blue indicator light on the dash, probably a bulb. The dash is held on buy two stylish straps! I don't have the key for the rear hatch. Very slight lean on the left rear. It runs a little rough when its cold, (probably due to the smog equipment) but purrs like a kitten when its warm. This has been an Arizona rig for many years but there is a little rust on it, but not much. You have to hunt to find it. The carpet is not the greatest. I have not messed with the sunroof at all. No radio. I put the driving light toggle switches in that spot and there is room to add 2 or 3 more switches. Does it leak? Of course it does, its a Jeep!
If you want I will throw in the original soft top and doors and frame. The windows are yellowed and have been chewed up a little but you can have them if you want. It is white and I have never installed it.
I drive this Jeep to work 4 days a week, 35 miles each way, over a mountain. Im at 3500 feet, the mountain is 7000 feet. It drives smooth and quiet and gets around 15mpg. Keep in mind this is a 1979 so it has a personality but overall its a wonderful classic collectible Jeep. It is pretty much stock too. Tires have less than 1000 miles on them. I welcome questions.
I wont ship it but if you coordinate shipping and pay for it I will assist any way I can. $500 paypal deposit due immediately and is non refundable, even if you change your mind. The rest of the money is due within a week and can be cash, check, or money order. I can store the Jeep for a while too if you want.

Chrysler highlights Mopar lineup for SEMA
Wed, 30 Oct 2013SEMA is all about aftermarket parts, and in Auburn Hills that all comes down to one name: Mopar. After having previewed its lineup for this year's Vegas tuner expo earlier this month, Chrysler has now revealed what may not quite be its full dossier of modified show cars, but a good portion of them.
All told Mopar is preparing 20 vehicles for display at SEMA this year. Among them you'll find the Ram Sun Chaser, a 1500 Quad Cab show truck kitted out in two-tone orange and black paint, a roof rack for surfboards, onboard shower and convertible tailgate. The white Fiat 500L is called the Adventurer and is modified for a more rugged look that could hint at the upcoming crossover version. The Jeep Cherokee Trail Carver upgrades on the Trailhawk package with everything from roof basket to rock rails. To counterbalance the off-roaders, there's also a modified Chrysler 300S with a deep black paint job, special grille, Varvatos-edition wheels and more.
All four concepts details so far have Katzkin interiors as well, and there's also an unspecified Dodge Durango with a storm-trooper look in the gallery above. But for more details on what Mopar has installed on the Ram, 500L, Cherokee and 300, you'll want to delve into the press release below.
Chrysler resolves recall issue with NHTSA, will inspect, upgrade affected Jeeps
Tue, 18 Jun 2013Chrysler made big news earlier in the month by refusing a recall request from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration for the 1993-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee and 2002-2007 Jeep Liberty. Last week, NHTSA boss David Strickland countered by defending his agency's request for the recall of 2.7 million Jeep SUVs. Today marked the deadline for Chrysler to formally respond to NHTSA, and it seems that both parties have met in the middle with Chrysler inspecting and upgrading some of the affected vehicles without using the word "recall," which would constitute the admission of a defect; instead, Chrysler said that it is conducting a "voluntary campaign."
At issue on these vehicles is the positioning of the fuel tank behind the rear axle that could get damaged during a rear-end collision. NHTSA has stated that at least 51 people have been killed in rear-end collisions involving these Jeeps after the vehicles caught fire, to which Chrysler countered by pointing out that both models "met and exceeded" the requirements for fuel-system integrity.
As a compromise on the situation, Chrysler says that it will inspect all pre-2004 Grand Cherokees and pre-2007 Liberty models and, "if necessary, provide an upgrade to the rear structure of the vehicle." According to Automotive News, this upgrade will consist of adding a trailer hitch that will presumably better protect the rear-mounted gas tank. Vehicles already equipped with a factory or Mopar hitch will not be modified. Chrysler's official statement on the matter is posted below, but no additional information has been released, such as when the campaign will begin and how many vehicles could be affected.
Chrysler recalls 350k vehicles over ignition switches
Thu, 25 Sep 2014Chrysler has announced a recall covering 349,442 vehicles due to ignition switches that can either become stuck or move without warning. All of the affected vehicles are from the 2008 model year, and were built before May 12, 2008.
The automaker has learned that ignition keys on some vehicles "may not fully return to the 'ON' position after rotation to the 'START' position during engine-startup," the company said in a statement. Additionally, "an ignition key may not fully return to the 'ON' position after rotation to the 'START' position and may inadvertently move through the 'ON' position to 'ACCESSORY' or 'OFF.'"
Chrysler says it is unaware of any related injuries, and notes that while reduced braking, engine or steering power is possible in such instances, the airbags are not affected. The later stands in contrast to General Motors' recent rash of high-profile recalls, and it's an important distinction that Chrysler (understandably) felt necessary to call out in bold print in its press release.
