Below I tried to add my you tube links, but I cant seem to get them working.  I hope you can cut and past it is worth to hear her run!!!



I bought this Jeep in 2011 just after it had a frame off restoration.  The work was great and done by the owner's brother.  However, he built her a no power no nonsense, 25" tired every day commuter.  When I got it, I drove it for a year while I put together the cash to re-do what had been done.  Below is a list of what work I have done to the Jeep to make it more of a Jeep than a yuppie day cruiser.

Pulled the inline 6 cyl and put in a Chevy 350 with about 310hp
Replaced all steering components.
Switched all brakes to slotted and drilled disk with chevy s10 calipers
New 8" brake booster and larger than spec master cylinder 
Redesigned interior of the cab.  Changed dash to custom with custom dials. 
Put in a new transfer case and sticks, added a new sound system, custom roll bars.  And a false rear floor for door storage.
New 35" tires
New rear and front with all new gears.
New paint job, less than a year ago.
The engine has been shined up and tricked out at a heavy cost.
New springs and shocks
New aluminum radiator and shroud
New custom welded front bumper with 10,000lb winch
Matching back bumpers
Custom security system


I know I am forgetting some things so I will wrap it up like this.  4 years he did a frame off on the jeep and put 2,800 miles on it.  1 and a half years ago I started my build.
Six months later I was done and now for the past almost two years, it has been my every day driver.  I have put 10890 miles on it in that time.  I have changed all fluids and rotated tires every 1000 miles.  I detail (including the undercarriage) at least once a month.

I have a set of soft doors, a set of half steel and half soft doors.  I have a whole shelf of extra parts that come with the purchase, like a starter extra can lights, and other misc. parts.  There is also a brand new, never used soft top.

If you are funded and interested, please feel free to call me or come by to see her.  I live south of Nashville and my phone number is 615-879-5872

Chrysler to accelerate production of 2013 Ram and V6 engines

Fri, 16 Nov 2012

Chrysler is adding a third shift at its Warren Truck plant to meet demand for the new 2013 Ram pickup. And with tight supplies of its Pentastar V6, the company is also boosting output at its Mack Engine plant.
The expansions will add 1,250 jobs and are part of a $238 million investment by Chrysler in the Detroit area. Warren's third shift will begin work sometime in the spring, a Chrysler rep told Automotive News. Mack's increased Pentastar production a could include both 3.6 and 3.2-liter engines.
The company says it also plans to invest $40 million in its Trenton Engine plant to allow for production of a 3.2-liter V6 as well as the Tigershark inline-four for the upcoming Jeep Liberty replacement.

Chrysler's Jefferson North plant builds 5-millionth SUV [w/video]

Thu, 15 Aug 2013

Chrysler's Jefferson North Assembly Plant opened in 1992 for production of the first Jeep Grand Cherokee, but in the subsequent years, the Detroit plant has gone on to produce some of the company's biggest SUVs including the Jeep Commander and Dodge Durango. Earlier this week, the plant produced its five-millionth SUV, which, fittingly, was a Grand Cherokee.
Celebrating the plant's five-millionth unit, the silver 2014 Grand Cherokee was promptly donated to the USO. In addition to this milestone SUV, Chrysler also had a near-perfect 1993-95 ZJ Grand Cherokee on hand for the photo op. Scroll down for the Chrysler press release as well as a video showing some of the speeches from the celebration.

Chrysler taking big risk snubbing NHTSA

Maker Insists Feds Overstate Risk Of Fires With Grand Cherokee, Liberty Models
It's not often that recall stories make it above the fold, in that old newspaper parlance, but when one shows up as the lead story on the network evening news programs, you know it's something big.
And so it is with Chrysler snubbing its nose at a request by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to recall 2.7 million Jeeps the feds insist are at risk of potentially catastrophic fuel tank fires in a rear-end collision.
