Awesome Beach Cruiser - 1989 Wrangler - Custom Paint - No Reserve on 2040-cars
Saint Petersburg, Florida, United States
|
Nothing hidden. This is going to make someone very happy and you can purchase this for far less than what I have into it.
I bought this because it looks great. It starts every time, Drives straight and gets great gas mileage and is a perfect beach cruiser for driving around the surf. The inside needs some updates but you dont drive a Jeep for the comfortable ride. This looks best with the top off...no need to worry about seats getting soaked because they have been replaced with vinyl. I have almost $5000 invested but I found a newer 2006 that I could afford so I purchased it and now I dont need two Jeeps. I was just getting started with some of the upgrades and now I hope someone else will pick this up and turn this back into a new truck. The good - its cheap and its a lot of fun. No frills. Great on gas. Starts every time and since it is a jeep, you can just about fix anything on it with a screwdriver, roll of duct tape and a coat hanger. Awesome custom flame paint job and paint is in fantastic condition. The bad - its 25 years old but very low mileage for a truck this age. ODO works fine and shows 110,000 miles. I do not know why teh AutoCheck says something different. There is some rust that will eventually need to be attended to but it doesnt stop the fun or take away from the looks you get with the top down. The stereo probably would be better if replaced. I have had an offer already and I will not take less than the opening bid. The is NOT a "4" rated Jeep. I would put it in the 12-15 rating. There is NO title problem. There is no ODO problem. All lights, brakes and gauges work fine. It just needs a little interior work but it is still a great buy for fun transportation and a great Jeep find. If you are looking to spend less than $5k and want a great beach ride and a fun car for the Florida sun, it is worth bidding on. If you have any question, feel free to ask. Car is being sold as is. You are welcome to view the car anytime or email me and I will try to answer your questions to the best of my knowledge. Deposit is due 2 days following the end of the auction. I will help make arrangements if you want this to be delivered outside of Florida |

Jeep reveals annual Moab Easter Jeep Safari concepts
Wed, 20 Mar 2013Jeep has unveiled its annual spate of concepts before the Easter Jeep Safari. Those start with the Grand Cherokee Trailhawk Concept (below left), complete with the company's EcoDiesel V6 engine. Designers threw in a set of 35-inch Mickey Thompson tires wrapped around 17-inch Rubicon wheels, and a set of custom fender flares help keep all that rubber under wraps.
Meanwhile, the Wrangler Mopar Recon (below right) packs a 6.4-liter Hemi V8 good for 470 horsepower. All that grunt gets to the ground via a five-speed automatic transmission and a set of a Dana 60 axles frond and rear with 4.10 gears. The Recon also makes use of a 4.5-inch prototype long-arm kit and a set of prototype eight-lug bead lock wheels.
The Wrangler Stitch (below left) builds on the momentum of the Wrangler Pork Chop Concept. Engineers once again set out to strike as much weight as possible from the vehicle, and actually managed to trim the curb weight down to 3,000 pounds. That effort has given the machine the same power to weight ratio as the Grand Cherokee SRT8. Plenty of carbon fiber, door deletes and a chrome moly roll cage all help trim those pounds, and a set of DanyTrac Pro Rock 44 axles with 4.88 gears and ARB lockers front and rear let this machine scramble over whatever is in its path.
NHTSA still mulling crash tests for recalled Jeeps
Thu, 15 Aug 2013Well, no one should ever accuse the government of not giving things plenty of thought. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is still debating whether it will retest any of the 1.56 million 1992 to 1998 Grand Cherokees and 2002 to 2007 Libertys that were part of a recall regarding fires after rear-end collisions. And yes, this debate has been going on for over a month. In other news...
The recall dustup started in early June, when Chrysler took the unusual position of refusing a recall request from NHTSA regarding placement of the fuel tank on the effected vehicles. NHTSA said a collision could cause a fire, a position Chrysler took issue with. Extensive negotiations ensued, with Chrysler agreeing to fit certain Jeeps with trailer hitches, which it said would provide some protection to fuel tanks mounted behind the rear axle in the event of a collision.
Part of the issue rests with the amount of data that needs to be processed, according to The Detroit News. NHTSA administrator David Strickland said during a Washington Auto Press Association meeting, "There's a lot of data and Chrysler is being very cooperative in giving us more data." Until that information has been sorted, it looks like re-testing will still be up for debate.
2014 Jeep Cherokee flaunts its new contemporary curves
Wed, 27 Mar 2013
Only slightly more than one month ago, undisguised (and less-than-flattering) shots of the all-new 2014 Jeep Cherokee were leaked online. Later that day, in an effort to suppress the uprising, Jeep countered with its own official photography offering us much clearer front and three-quarter views. We've been left to digest those pictures for weeks.
Now, mere hours before the fabric comes sliding off its newest mid-size sport-utility at its live reveal at the New York Auto Show, Jeep has released dozens of new images showing all four corners, plus a few interior shots, of its new Cherokee.
