 1982 Jeep CJ 7 Renegade:

Tons of work completed! Very little rust for an '82. Lots of body work completed, but understand I was not going for a full resto, more of a solid daily wheeler you could drive to and from the mountains. Undercarriage was cleaned and sealed w/ POR15 rust preventive paint. Original color and original "Renegade" Sticker on the hood... It's distinctive. Awesome Jeep, but after 8 years it needs a new home.

The Good -

- TBI fuel Injection w/ stock GM Ignition Coil
- Clifford Performance High Flow Intake Manifold
- Clifford Performance Headers into 2-1/4" Exhaust... Awesome exhaust note!
- Rebuilt 5spd Transmission (T5)
- Refreshed and Re-sealed Dana 300 Transfer Case
- Fully Rebuilt Front and Rear Diffs
- Rear Ox Locker
- 2" Pro Comp Lift w/ MX6 adjustable shocks
- J20 Power Steering Gear Box Upgrade
- 31" Studded Snow Tires, drives great in the snow and wet
- Chevy Blazer Heat Blower Motor Upgrade
- CD w/ Aux Jack and good Speakers
- Grey Bikini Top
- Grey Bestop Soft Top
- Full Hard Doors
- Full Soft Doors (tan color)

The Bad -

- No Emissions Equipment, i.e. it probably will not pass.
- Fuel Gauge Doesn't work & the Speedo only works to 35mph.
- Motor was Freshly Rebuilt about 2000 miles ago, BUT if it is warm and idles for about 5 min w/out driving it will start to smoke. Compression was tested and is an even 120-125psi across all cylinders.

That Said, I just drove it 250 miles through the mountains w/ out an issue and no noticeable oil use and wouldn't be afraid to do so again.

I would love to keep the Jeep, but I had to purchased a truck for work and the Jeep needs to go.

 As with most built Jeeps.. well over $10K in parts, maintenance, and upgrades.

I am Located in Central Denver, CO.  Buyer would be responsible for shipping or pick-up of the vehicle.

Jeep does Renegade Chinese-style with Zi You Xia design concept

Sat, 19 Apr 2014

As we mentioned, Jeep is bringing a quartet of concepts to the Beijing Motor Show this year. Its largest model, the Grand Cherokee, is nowhere to be found, but its smallest is. That, of course, would be the new Renegade, which has been done up as the Zi You Xia design concept.
Taking its name from the Mandarin word (or words) for "rebel," the Zi You Xia takes its inspiration from the National Centre for the Performing Arts in Beijing, with a Warm Chocolate Gray paintjob with contrasting dark bronze trim. The roof, grille and mirror caps are color-keyed to match the rest of the exterior, riding on 20-inch alloys in the same dark bronze finish.
Inside it's all Piano Black, Anodized Copper and brown leather with plaid fabric inserts. Scope it out in the high-res image gallery above and the press release below.

Ward's releases 10 Best Interiors list for 2014

Thu, 10 Apr 2014

While 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:

eBay Find of the Day: 1977 Jeep J20 time capsule

Tue, 08 Jan 2013

Is it just us or has eBay really become, of late, a surprising time capsule of older, barely used automobiles? We've had the 2005 Porsche Carrera GT with 83 miles, the 2004 Ferrari Enzo with 175 miles, the 1987 Shelby Lancer with 22 miles, the 1989 Shelby Dakota with 23 miles - none of those four cars ever even registered - and the 1975 Cosworth Vega with 191 miles. You can add to that list a 1977 Jeep J20 - the kind of Jeep that enthusiasts point to when they beg the brand to make another pickup truck.
Listed on eBay by Masterpiece Classic Cars in Whiteland, Indiana, the Brandywine and Alpine White truck has used its 360-cubic-inch V8 paired with a three-speed automatic to go just 3,940 documented miles. Not surprisingly, it's listed in excellent condition and the images appear to bear that out. The three-quarter-ton pickup comes with its original manual and pamphlets, the Quadra-Track four-wheel drive probably just as ready to tackle the terrain as it was 36 years ago. If only it came with some John Denver to play in that AM/FM/8-Track stereo...
At the time of writing it hasn't garnered a single offer or bid, probably due to the above-top-dollar Buy It Now price of $34,900. Still, since this is likely the closest you'll get to a Jeep pickup for some time, we'd recommend admiring it in the gallery of photos above.
