Up for auction is my 1981 Jeep CJ7.  I have owned this Jeep for 21 years and I have had many great experiences with it.  For the first ten years it was my daily driver but then I retired it to a farmers field for a few years when I started to covet things like heat, protection from the elements and overall reliability.  After about three years I started to miss the Jeep so I bought a fiberglass body because the original steel tub was so badly rusted and so started the rebuilding process.  After tearing it down I had the frame sandblasted and I welding in new crossbraces and the mounting hardware for the new body.  I painted it with black farm implement paint that has really held up nicely and looks nice.  The suspension was replaced with a 2 1/2 inch lift.  The engine was still strong as I had replaced it with a crate factory rebuild about 15,000 miles before parking it but I gave it a new intake, Holley carb, Hooker headers and an aluminum valve cover.  The wiring harness, all the guages and lights were all replaced but I have not been able to get the gas guage to work.  I suspect I recieved a faulty new part somewhere between the sending unit and the gauge.  I kept the original color, the paint code is OK, really, OK is the paint code.  The exhaust is stainless steel the whole way and all the fuel lines, brake lines and hoses were replaced.  I still have a Best Top soft top and doors that will go with the Jeep in the sale but I never put them back on since it has lived in my garage and I only take it out in the summer anyway.  Whoever buys it can install them if they wish. 

Those of you that know about Jeeps don't need to read any further but those that may be buying their first should know.  This vehicle does not have all the safety items that a modern car has.  It is uncomfortable on long rides.  It is loud and uses a lot of gas.  It doesn't have heat, a radio, interior lights, storage compartments or even a rear seat.  You will undoubtedly have to tinker with it and after tinkering with this one for 20 years it still marks its spot with a few drops of oil in the garage.  It is, however, one of the funnest things you could ever drive.  Your male friends will ask you if you want to sell it all the time and your female friends will want to go for a ride.  Nearly every Jeep owner that passes you on the road will give you the Jeep wave like it is a fraternity and old dudes will go into long stories about the Jeep they used to own and wish they never got rid of. 

So, if you are interested happy bidding.  If you have any questions feel free to email me.

Jeep Wrangler Copper Crawler is our idea of a restrained Mopar shopping spree

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

According to a recent report, the Jeep Wrangler is the most popular SUV for customization, and this is backed up by the fact that the iconic off-roader was just named the Hottest 4x4-SUV at SEMA for the fourth year in a row. Looking for ways to keep its customers in-house rather than going aftermarket, Jeep and Mopar are always teaming to offer exciting new parts and pieces for the JK Wrangler.
Compared to most other Wranglers on display at SEMA - as well as other Chrysler Mopar SEMA concepts - the Jeep Wrangler Copper Crawler is surprisingly reserved, but should be no less exciting for owners to give their Wrangler a distinctive look. Starting off with an eye-catching copper paint scheme, the Jeep then goes on a Mopar catalog shopping spree with its matte black grille, black beadlock wheels, two-inch lift, Rubicon bumper (with a winch and aero end caps up front) and rocker panel and taillight guards.
Jeep also upgraded the Wrangler's transfer case for low-speed rock crawling (hence the vehicle's name) and cold-air intake for extra measure.

Watch this 9-year-old drive Jeep Wrangler off-road [w/poll]

Wed, 28 May 2014

This nine-year-old girl might be better at rock crawling than some people twice her age. But is it worth putting her in danger to do it? According to her father on the Jeep Experience Facebook page, her name is Faith, and she has been offroading with her family since she was two. At nine years old, she's now driving her dad's Jeep over the rocks by herself.
As you can see she's belted in and under her father's direct supervision and guidance. She shows immense confidence for someone her age and follows her dad's instructions on exactly what to do. Although, this could still be a very dangerous situation if something went wrong.
Previously, we saw a similar video with a six-year-old on a motorcycle driving on public roads through the desert. Voters decided by only a six-point margin that the adult should be in trouble for letting the kid ride the bike. Here, we have a slightly older child driving a vehicle off road. Where do you fall in this case? Is it still wrong to hand over control to a child? Let us know in the poll below and scroll down to watch the video.

Fiat-based baby Jeep spotted testing in US and Europe

Thu, 03 Oct 2013

Details remain scarce, but our spy photographers have managed to capture the upcoming Jeep B-segment crossover for the first time, testing in both the Alps and in the US. Shown here as a cobbled-together Fiat 500L mule, the new Jeep model is expected to arrive for the 2015 model year and act as a replacement for the current Compass and Patriot models.
According to our shooter, the new "baby Jeep" will share a platform with the Fiat 500X, and both models will be built on the same assembly line in Turin, Italy. We can't tell much from these images, but the added length apparent on this 500L mule would seem to dispel the recent speculation that the new entry-level Jeep model would be sized closer to the Ford Fiesta - since the 500L is already considerably larger than the Fiesta. Powertrain options will likely mirror other Fiat/Chrysler collaborative vehicles like the Dodge Dart, but this Jeep will also try to live up to its off-road roots with an optional all-wheel-drive system.
