Body: Floor boards were replaced with actual panels, and done properly.  No rust anywhere else on the Jeep.  Body was stripped to bare metal and painted, not show quality by any means, but looks decent.  There are a few runs, etc.  The inside was scrubbed, sanded and bed lined.  All seats are in pretty good condition, with black "Jeep" seat covers over the fronts.  Two rear seats included, one black (matches the front seats) and one grey.

Frame:  One of the cleanest I have seen around here, near perfect condition. 

Armor:  I built a Bumper and some rock sliders, not quite poison spyder quality, but pretty decent either way.  The bumper currently is not set up for a winch, but I made it so a winch plate could be added later very easily.


I did not install the Engine, transmission/transfer case into the Jeep.  I do not know how many miles are on any of those components, but the Jeep does run well and I have driven it around my yard in all gears ( transmission and t-case).  The carb could use some adjustments, I think it runs a little rich and the electric choke does not work properly, I do have a manual choke conversion included though.  I just replaced the battery a month or so ago with a new Duralast one.  Oil was just changed, air filter changed.  Axles were disassembled, cleaned and painted before installation, with new gaskets/seals as needed, and fresh 80/90 gear oil.  When stripping the interior out of it, the bolts for the rear seat broke, and I did not finish removing them as of this ad, but two rear seats are included, just not installed.  The seatbelts have not been reinstalled either, I was going to ad onto the cage and install harnesses.  The factory clock is the only factory gauge that works, but aftermarket oil pressure and water temp gauges are installed and work properly.  The windshield is cracked, from top to bottom, on the passenger side.  I do have a good condition windshield that is included to replace it.  I have a set of LED back up lights and a horn included that need to be installed also.  It does have a white hard top in pretty good condition, and green hard doors in pretty good condition included also.  I have more pictures, please send me an email address if you would like more pictures sent to you.


I do have a fair amount of extra parts included, IE: driveshafts, soft tops and hardware, sway bar, half doors color matched to the Jeep, 2 sets of soft uppers one zipper window one sliding window, both in ok shape, bikini top and some other stuff I can't remember right now.  Depending on the sale price, I have a set of 4.88 gears, and a carrier that could be included. 


Jeep is listed locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime without prior notice to anyone.  Jeep is for local pick up only, but delivery could possibly be worked out.  Please contact me prior to bidding if you wish to ship.  I reserve the right to cancel any bids, for any reason.  Please contact me with any questions, comments or concerns.  Thank you and happy bidding!

Jeep Renegade's development a template for new Fiat Chrysler Auto

Wed, 24 Sep 2014



"We figured we'd take the best of both worlds." - Ralph Gilles.
The international makeup of the 2015 Jeep Renegade will serve as a template for cooperation within the newly formed Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Senior Vice President of Product Design Ralph Gilles said.

NHTSA closes book on Jeep 'trailer hitch' recall after all

Mon, 20 Jan 2014

After much debating and hand-wringing, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration now says it has "no reservations" with Chrysler's plan to recall certain Jeep Liberty and Grand Cherokee models over concerns that their fuel tanks, which are located behind the rear axle, could rupture or leak in the event of a rear impact. The longstanding argument between the two entities saw Chrysler openly defy the Feds after a request to recall 2.7 million units back in June.
Chrysler's "voluntary campaign" will instead see it recall 1.56-million 1993-2004 model year Grand Cherokee SUVs, along with 2002-2007 Liberty models. Affected vehicles will get a trailer hitch installed free of charge, which Chrysler says will provide an additional degree of protection for the fuel tanks in the event of a crash. Jeeps with Mopar-branded hitches or hitches that were installed at the factory aren't affected by this recall.
Chrysler's argument throughout this battle has been that the Jeeps in question are no more susceptible to fires than comparable vehicles from the same time period, a position that NHTSA has seemingly arrived at as well. "Those vehicles performed at a rate similar to their peers. That is the keystone analysis as to whether something poses an unreasonable risk to safety," said outgoing NHTSA boss David Strickland during an interview with the The Associated Press.

NHTSA boss Strickland weighs in on Jeep recall fracas

Sat, 15 Jun 2013

Adding yet another chapter to the ongoing Jeep recall story, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) head David Strickland has gone on record to defend the government's request that Chrysler recall 2.7 million out-of-production Jeep Grand Cherokee and Jeep Liberty vehicles after the agency investigated fiery rear-end collisions that have reportedly killed at least 51 people over the years. In statements made to The Detroit News, Strickland said, "We felt very strongly that the process that we undertook and the findings that we made and ... we made the decision to issue a recall request. We do not take that very lightly." The top US auto safety regulator stopped short of telling owners to park their cars until the automaker takes action. "They can make their own risk assessment and their own choices," he said.
Chrysler does not intend to recall the models, insisting the "vehicles met and exceeded all applicable requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, including FMVSS 301, pertaining to fuel-system integrity" when they were manufactured and sold. "The company does not agree with NHTSA's conclusions and does not intend to recall the vehicles cited in the investigation. The subject vehicles are safe and are not defective," Chrysler announced last week in a statement. "We believe NHTSA's initial conclusions are based on an incomplete analysis of the underlying data, and we are committed to continue working with the agency to resolve this disagreement."
Legally, Chrysler has until June 18 to formally respond to NHTSA's request. If the automaker does not take action, NHTSA is expected to issue a formal finding and seek a recall.
