1985 CJ7 Renegade with 89,000 original miles.  T-176 4 speed, PS, PB, AC.  Full hard doors, Best top soft top in perfect shape.

Rust free Texas Jeep in excellent original condition.  As you can see in the pictures, the floors, fender wells, and undercarriage are amazingly clean.  No indication that this Jeep ever spent a day outside of the garage as the original dash pad and seats have no cracks or tears and show very little wear.  The hood has been repainted, and the remainder of the Jeep appears to retain it's original paint.  The body is extremely straight.  There are a few dings upon very close inspection, but could easily and inexpensively be removed by a PDR guy if so desired.  There are two areas where the paint is not perfect - front fender near the flare, and passenger rear corner near the spare tire carrier.  I can provide any additional pictures as needed.

There has been a Weber carb installed, other that that the mechanicals are completely stock.  Power steering, power brakes, and factory AC.  AC unit blows, but not cold, compressor will kick in when AC is turned on.  Would be an easy repair if AC is desired.  Drives, shifts, steers, and stops very well.  Suspension and steering are nice and tight.  Jeep could use a little fine tuning on the Weber, as it lags a little when accelerating when fully warmed up.  Wipers, horn, blinkers, lights all work.  Last inspected and registered in 2005.  Since then it's been stored in an airplane hangar and used as a run around vehicle at an airstrip.

This Jeep looks like is has 20,000 miles, not 89,000 and will stand it's ground next to $25,000 low mileage CJ-7s like the ones offered by Collins Bros Jeeps, etc. 

Feel free to call me with any questions, or to set up a time to inspect the vehicle. (512) 748-5677  The Jeep is in Austin TX. If you want to arrange an inspection, please do so before hitting the buy it now, or making an offer.

I've been collecting old cars for years, and this is one of the nicest Jeeps I've ever seen in Central TX.   Never been hacked, no rhino liner hiding rust, this one is a time capsule. With a young family it's too nice for my needs.  I have purchased another Jeep that's more of a daily driver so this one must go.  Clear Texas Title in hand.

Jeep Wrangler Dragon Edition coming to North America

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

If 2012 was the year of the dragon in China, perhaps the US can claim 2014. After showing the Jeep Wrangler Dragon Design Concept at the 2012 Beijing Motor Show, and apparently receiving "tremendously positive feedback" from Jeep enthusiasts across the globe, the automaker has decided to introduce a production version that will hit US showrooms this fall with a price of $36,095.
"The dragon symbolizes strength and power and is an aspirational character normally associated with royalty and good fortune," says Jeep, and that apparently equates to a blacked-out Wrangler Unlimited with bronze satin gloss highlights inside and out, along with big dragon decals that start on the hood and run down the fenders. There are 18-inch matte black wheels with a bronze outer edges, and a dragon-emblazoned spare tire cover completes the look.
We suggest you peruse the high-res image gallery above to see all the black and bronze detailing yourself, and make special note of the interior. In related news, all 2014 Jeep Wrangler models get an optional Trail Kit and clear park lamps to replace the previous amber units. New colors include Amp'd, Anvil, Copperhead, Flame Red, Granite Crystal and Hydro Blue (Freedom edition only), which join carryover colors Billet Silver, Bright White, Black and Dune.

NHTSA investigating why Jeep recall fix is taking so long

Mon, 07 Jul 2014

Jeep's saga with the National Traffic Safety Administration and the voluntary campaign to repair 1.56 million vehicles for allegedly unsafe trailer hitches, is getting yet another chapter. The controversy appeared to finally be over in January when the automaker found a supplier for the replacement parts. Nothing is ever that easy, though, and the government regulator is now requesting documents from the company to clarify why the repairs are taking so long to begin.
Jeep parent company Chrysler has until July 16 to submit documents and answers to NHTSA explaining the situation. The regulator claims that despite its compromise to inspect and repair the models with improper hitches in June 2013, Chrysler didn't find a part supplier until December and didn't order the replacements until January. The government agency believes that the first components weren't manufactured until May of this year and vehicles may not actually be repaired until as late as August. According to the report, if the Chrysler doesn't supply what NHTSA is asking for, the agency could "take additional appropriate action as warranted."
Throughout this entire process, Chrysler has asserted that the vehicles met the applicable crash test standards of the time, and it has kept NHTSA abreast of the repair activity. In a recently released statement it said that the regulator analyzed eight rear impact reconstruction tests and found the replacement hitch to be safe. To keep up with the high demand for replacements, Chrysler is working with multiple suppliers, and they are running three shifts, six days a week to get the parts ready as soon as possible.

First Jeepster prototype spotted with final, boxy form

Thu, 23 Jan 2014

The long-awaited baby Jeep is getting closer to production, as evidenced by these spy photos. Previously, the only images of the so-called Jeepster saw it wearing a Fiat 500L body (see below), while this new batch of photos show hefty amounts of camouflage. How is that better? Well, it's very likely there's a production body hiding under all that cladding.
While picking out styling details is virtually impossible thanks to all the camo, as our spies point out, this gives us a very sound idea of the Jeepster's final size. It's small, although we'd argue that it's only slightly smaller than the current Jeep Patriot, based on the images of the newest Jeep sitting in front of an Alfa Romeo Giulietta.
As we reported previously, this little bambino will be built on a Fiat platform, but the styling should be uniquely Jeep - likely to include a somewhat vertical seven-slat grille and round headlights. We can expect to see a production Jeepster, if that ends up being the actual name (Latitude has been rumored, although as that's traditionally a trim level, we imagine there'd be some confusion), when it debuts at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show.
