Original Paint Rust Free Arizona 1986 Jeep Cj7 Laredo on 2040-cars
Phoenix, Arizona, United States
Original paint rust free Arizona 1986
Jeep CJ7 VIN: 1JCCF87E0GT010658 1986 Jeep CJ7 with a 4.2 liter engine and a 5 speed
transmission. The optional equipment on
the Jeep are: Air
conditioning, Laredo package. This Jeep
was sold new in Palmdale California. It
spent until 2004 in California. The last
10 years in Arizona. The dry climate
preserved the body. There is no evidence
of rust or body damage. The CARFAX
indicates there was an accident where an airbag deployed. There is no airbag, and I find no evidence of
body work or paint. The truck has been
sitting in a barn for over two years. It
could not pass emissions in California or Arizona. The title is clean. If you have ever read any of my vehicle adds
you will know that I am brutally honest with my descriptions. I do not flip cars for a living I have a full
time business I am not an expert on Jeeps, but I am always happy to speak to
someone if they have question. There are links below to a video of the Jeep
driving, a walk around, and the engine running.
Also there is a link to over 100 pictures where I show the good bad and the
ugly. Please feel free to call me at
602-908-9267 with any questions. Body/Tub- The
tub of the jeep has no evidence of rust or body work. . All of the original Sebring Red paint appears
to be original. The clear coat is almost
totally gone on the hood and front fenders.
The stickers are very faded with small chips and scratches. The passenger front fender has slight
wrinkling on the top which is hard to see, and the camera would not pick it
up. There are small dents and bruises on
the truck. The interior of the tub is
straight with scuff marks, but most of the original paint still shines. The bottom of the tub is very clean. Still shows a very thin layer of Sebring red
over gray primer. I belie all of the
paint under the truck to be original.
Again no evidence of rust at all.
There is small amounts of undercoating on the tub, but it also looks
original. Interior-The
cloth front seats and the back bench do not match. The cloth is well used, but complete. The back seat is in good shape. All of the gauges work. The radio has been relocated to Masterrac box
in between the seats. It works well with
speakers in the dash and in the Masterrac boxes mounted on the rear
fenders. I have some of the keys for the
boxes, but not all of them. Caret in the rear of the Jeep only. Carpet is old and faded. The under dash A/C has been removed. The gauge in the radio slot is for the air
pump system. The A/C compressor is now
used as a compressor with a small tank under the hood. I tried to get it to work, but it appears to
be non-operational. Dash is clean with
no cracks. The gauges in the dash work.
I’m not sure they are accurate but they operate. The plastic bezel around the gauges is
cracked. The wiring under the dash is a
bit of a spaghetti mess. Engine/Transmission/
Drive Train- the 4.2 liter engine appears to be
completely original. It cleaned up well,
but it is in desperate need of a tune up.
My guess is a major tune up will get the Jeep close to passing
emissions, but the catalytic converter is more than likely in need of
replacement. There is a small coolant
leak coming from the upper radiator hose connection. The Jeep ran hot the day I drove it to take
pictures. It was 109 degrees with 50%
humidity so I was running hot as well.
In the pictures you can see the air pump system. The nozzle is in the front grill. The transmission shifts OK. The clutch engages and disengages OK. A little chatter from what I think is the
throughout baring. Four wheel drive
engages. 4 High and 4 low appear to work
as they are supposed to. Please look at
the link below to hear the engine running.
The locking hubs appear to work fine. Chassis-We
cleaned the bottom of the truck off and
painted the frame so it would not rust.
The chassis appears to be straight and original. The lift is a 6” Superlift. The shocks are Ranch RS 5000’s. I do not know how old they are, but I suspect
they have been on the truck a long time.
The tires are Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ’s. They have no tread ware, but ate date coded
2007. The aluminum wheels are scuffed
and the center caps are bent up. I drove the truck about 20 miles. It wanders and tracks poorly, but it runs good. Acceleration is strong and shifts well. I am
happy to let someone look at it if you want to inspect. Please call me at 602-908-9267 if you have
questions or want to take a look. The
type of cars I sell are Arizona rust free in nature. This normally results in a great response and
many times the auction ending early. The

Ward's releases 10 Best Interiors list for 2014
Thu, 10 Apr 2014While we're still a ways off from the automotive awards season proper, where things like North American Car and Truck of the Year, Motor Trend's Car of the Year and Car and Driver's Ten Best are named, that doesn't mean there aren't trophies being handed out to deserving automakers. Ward's 10 Best Interiors being one of them.
As the name might imply, the magazine focuses on the very best interior treatments in the US market. Whereas some awards purposely exclude extreme, high-dollar offerings, Ward's considers them - the only requirement is that a vehicle has a "new or significantly redesigned interior."
Ward's offered up the list of winners in simple, alphabetical order, and it only seems fair to do the same:
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?
Jeep gunning to build 250,000 Cherokees a year
Thu, 21 Mar 2013Contrary to what a certain politician may have said last year about Jeep moving to China, the automaker is in fact doing the opposite, with plans to greatly increase the production capacity at its Toledo North Assembly plant in Ohio. The Detroit Free Press is reporting that there are big plans for the 2014 Jeep Cherokee and Toledo North, as a local union president has informed the newspaper that Chrysler is planning to produce around 250,000 examples of the new midsize utility per year.
To put this number into context, 250,000 units is more than what Jeep Liberty sales totaled here over the last three years combined. Even taking into consideration that the 250,000 units will be distributed beyond US borders, that's an ambitious volume figure full-stop - and that's without taking into consideration the new Cherokee's love/hate design. In its favor, though, Jeep is making remarkable inroads globally as of late, and the Cherokee's size could work well in emerging markets. To get that kind of output from Toledo's Cherokee assembly line, Chrysler will reportedly hire 1,105 new workers - that's in addition to the 200 workers already being hired to build the popular Jeep Wrangler, which is itself expected to top 220,000 units this year.
