1964 cj5 Tuxedo Park Mark IV. Tuxedo Park is a trim package in the eary 60's which included chrome bumpers, which are almost impossible to find (these have a $2000 re-chrome job), chrome column gear shifter, 60/40 splint front bench seat. Almost every nut bolt and washer has been replaced with either stainless steel or hardened on the whole jeep (motor, transmission, transfer case, chassis, and body) looks really neat. Everything has been rebuilt, replaced, cleaned and painted except the red body paint which has a great patina.  Anybody can put on a shiny new tub but this thing has character. Could have it clear coated but I just keep thick coat of wax applied. Body does have some rust - in front of door openings as seen in pic. Floor pan has some holes - but cleaned and painted, see pic. Looks like someone hit the spare tire carrier and tried to patch, see pic. It took 50 years to get this way - should last a lot longer now that it's all painted.  Very good condition for an original unmolested jeep.  Front fenders have a little denting - rumor has it that it hit a cow. Lived it's life in North Mississippi and Alabama.  Axles, frame, and drive shafts cleaned and painted. Transmission blasted painted and rebuilt. Transfer case blasted and painted and new seals. Motor not rebuilt but runs good except a little exhaust valve leak - no oil leaks, blasted and painted. New water pump, oil lines, alternator, battery. Rebuilt steering box and new tie rod ends.  All new brake system. New exhaust system which is ceramic coated. Tires are not new, ok but some cracking. No parking brake. Finally found a NOS speedometer (after a year of looking) can buy a new version but it doesn't look like the original. Gauges and speedo works (reads a little fast) with new speedo cable. NOS Sparton self canceling turn signal switch. New windshield frame and gasket. All new springs, bushing, and shackles. New upholstery, floor mats, new steering wheel,  horn button, and horn. Stainless rear view mirror and tail lights.   Heater and windshield wipers are not installed - I do have them. No top, or spare tire. Great looking - everyone has to comment on it. Call, text or email with any questions 901 483 3395.  Thanks, Bill. For sale locally, reserve the right to end early. May add more if I thing of anything. Mileage is inaccurate - old speedo was working showing 64k but title listed as mileage unknown.

Jeep Wrangler by Vilner takes extreme luxury off-road

Mon, 20 Jan 2014

Vilner turned its customary and intensely luxurious attentions to a two-door Jeep Wrangler Sahara Unlimited back in 2012, following that up this year with its take on the four-door version. A coat of lustrous black paint outside is brightened up LED headlights, foglights and taillights and layers of chrome laid on the grille, mirrors, door handles and fuel filler cap.
Stance gets an injection of brawn from the 20-inch wheels, and they'll roll faster thanks to the power upgrade from 197 horsepower and 339 pound-feet of torque in the 2.8-liter diesel to 257 hp and 412 lb-ft.
Inside is furious red, with cross-stitched crimson leather and Alcantara demanding your focus. When you can look away from that, you'll find the raw metal parts painted black and again ornamented in minor applications of chrome. Feel free to feast on it in the high-res gallery above.

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee gets surprisingly comprehensive update, new diesel power

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

Traditionally, automotive journalists can be heard muttering something to the effect of "Geeze, it's about time!" whenever a vehicle's midcycle refresh is revealed. As we routinely see and drive new models many months before the public even claps eyes on them in showrooms - and then go on to tweeze apart their minutia in our daily writings - perhaps some impatience is to be expected. With so much exposure to a given vehicle, it's fair to say we tire of most cars and trucks far more quickly than the average consumer.
The alterations are handsome, if not subtle touches from the "If It Ain't Broke" school of design.
Which is why we're pleased to say "Oh, is it time for that already?" when it comes to the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The current WK2 Grand Cherokee hit the market in 2011 and climbed its way into our hearts with its rugged good looks, go-anywhere capability and surprising refinement. We're not yet tired of its appearance or performance, but even so, we're very glad to see Chrysler giving its flagship Jeep some attention, including a much-anticipated diesel powertrain option and some other economy-minded measures.

Fiat 500X poised for Paris catwalk

Wed, 05 Feb 2014

We've known for some time that the new, Fiat-based baby Jeep (which may or may not be called the Jeepster) is set to arrive at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show. What we weren't sure of was whether its platform mate, the so-called Fiat 500X, would be doing so alongside or at a later date. Well, according to Reuters, we'll get to see the first all-wheel-drive 500 later this year in the City of Lights.
Yes, we can expect the 500X to arrive at the 2014 Paris Motor Show, according to an official with an Italian trade union. The unnamed source cited retooling at Fiat's Melfi factory, in southern Italy, which currently produces the Grande Punto. It's expected that the newest member of the growing 500 family will replace the Suzuki SX4-based Fiat Sedici, although when the X will go on sale remains an open question.
According to Reuters, both the Jeepster and 500X will be built alongside each other in Italy. Whether the 500X will cross the pond with it's slat-grilled cousin, though, remains to be seen (we're leaning towards yes).
