No Reserve Auction!! 1985 Jeep CJ7 Renegade 79k Original Miles This Jeep CJ7 is a beautiful classic that gets a lot of attention when driving around town. Yesterday I drove it to the mountains twice, once without the hardtop and once with it. The Jeep drives great, no vibrations or shimmy and has no problems keeping up with traffic in town, on the highway or in the mountains. Engine: 258 4.2L 6cylinder motor that runs great, is very peppy and runs good. Overall the motor runs great, I don't notice any leaks on the ground after driving and it does not smoke. The carburetor needs some adjustment. When driving the rpms are a little high at stop signs almost as if the choke is not opening. The Valve cover gasket has the classic leak and the exhaust muffler/tail pipe could use replacing. Transmission/Transfer Case: 5spd T5 Manual Transmission that shifts perfect, no play in the transmission and no grinding or crunching. The Clutch is very tight and does not slip. The transfer case shifts easily in and out of 4x4. It is a Dana 300. Drivetrain/suspension: The Jeep drives excellent and has that soft tight stock suspension. There aren't any loud clunks or noises, it is very smooth. The drivetrain and suspension are completely stock. The power steering is super sensitive and the power brakes stop the jeep easily. Interior Controls/Switches: Everything in the interior works including the gauges, speedometer, odometer, wipers, blinkers, horn, cig lighter and heater. The heater cranks and blows hot. Paint/Body/Rust: The paint is Garnet Red Exterior with Renegade Striping. It appears that at one point it had been resprayed and the renegade decals were not installed at that point. The front driver fender needs fixing or replacement. The paint is beautiful and very reflective, shiny and lots of luster. The front grill/fenders and windshield frame have many sand chips. The body has rust spots on both rear quarters, both are a little larger then a silver dollar and there are a couple small blister spots under the decals. The body mounts are all very solid and not rusted thru. Overall very clean, the rear of the jeep does not show any rust near the tailgate or body mounts. Interior: The interior is beautiful, the Garnet Red interior is in excellent shape. The seats are incredibly clean and do not have any significant rips, tears or seem separations. The rear seat on the top has some small cuts. The carpet is in excellent condition, very clean without any stains or rips/tears. The drivers side floor under the carpet is rusted thru and will need to be cut out and a new floor installed or covered up. The interior paint is in great condition otherwise. The dash pad does have a few cuts in it too. The radio works and has the stock speakers behind the dash. Hardtop/Doors: The black hardtop has not been refinished and is the original. It is in great shape and could use a fresh coat of paint at some point. The doors do not have any rust, the windows roll up and down very easily and the locks work from the inside. Unfortunately I do not have a key for the doors, it disappeared. The wing windows open and close with ease and the seal tight. Overall: This is a beautiful Jeep and ready to go. With a little bit of TLC you could have a rare classic to enjoy for many years to come. The CJ7 is used and 29 years old it may have blemishes I didn't capture on my camera. I do my best to illustrate the condition, I may have missed something so be sure to ask all questions you have prior to bidding or winning the Jeep. The Jeep is being sold as is, where is, without warranty or guarantees. I am not required for your state emission or safety inspections including Colorado. Shipping: If you are out of state and need to have this Jeep shipped, call M&E Auto Transport #606-354-3643. Michael is great to work with and offers competitive pricing, quick pickup and delivery.

Finding surfing spots in the UK is tough work, even in a Jeep
Sun, 06 Jul 2014You truly have to love surfing to practice the sport in the United Kingdom. The area isn't exactly teeming with warm beaches full of sunbathers, and absolutely no easy spots to find big waves. To be a UK surfer, you need to be a fearless adventurer, not to mention quite lucky. And driving a Jeep might help, too.
Surfers Oli Adams and Micah Lester are traveling around the British Isles in a Jeep Wrangler Overland trying to find the best surf spots out there. These guys don't fit the laid-back surfer stereotype, but that's because finding waves in the UK is hard work. They say that the waves at some of these spots only exist for about three hours every year when the current and winds are just right.
To find these surf spots, the Jeep's offroad capabilities are paramount. In some areas, as you'll see in the video, there isn't even a beach, just jagged rocks. It would be like the movie Endless Summer, that is, if it could start snowing at any moment. These guys are clearly dedicated to their sport.
Freak accident during Jeep demonstration turns fatal
Mon, 20 May 2013A 20-year-old woman was killed in Edmonton, Canada on Satuday, reports CTV News, in a freak accident resulting from a rollover during a Jeep demonstration. As part of a fundraising enthusiast event called "Jeeps Go Topless," the driver of one Jeep Wrangler drove up and onto the top of the tire of another.
CTV reports that the owner of the topmost Jeep then switched the vehicle off, posed for pictures and then dismounted from his vehicle. His movement off of the Jeep apparently caused it to tip over, crushing a woman who was on top of an adjacent vehicle. Edmonton police are currently investigating more fully what caused the parking lot accident to occur. Scroll below to watch the CTV News video report about this tragic incident.
Marchionne uses racial epithet to describe what must power future Alfa Romeo models
Wed, 16 Jan 2013Sergio Marchionne and his Fiat empire have a lot riding on the US return of the Alfa Romeo brand. The endeavor has been in progress for what feels like a lifetime - certainly for as long as Fiat has had the Chrysler brand under its Italian wing.
It's not surprising that Fiat CEO Marchionne needs a perfect first Alfa to mark a return to America. And here's where things get dicey. Nobody would argue with Marchionne's insistence that Alfa Romeo's be powered by Italian engines - as Marchionne himself is quoted to have said at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, "There are some things that are well done in Italy."
If not what he said, then, it's how he said it that has eyebrows raised. "I cannot come up with a schlock product, I just won't. I won't put an American engine into that car. With all due respect to my American friends, it needs to be a wop engine." Wait, what's that?
