1961 Cj5 on 2040-cars
Irvington, Alabama, United States
This is a 1961 Willys Kaiser CJ5, 4 cylinder with Tuxedo Park Mark III trim, it is convertible with a folding windshield and completely open body style if desired. This jeep is part time 2 wheel drive or a part time 4 wheel drive with all new seats and belts installed recently, the paint job is not original however it is extremely nice. This particular model of the CJ5 came stock with a hood and body made of heavy gauge sheet metal, a larger windshield frame, and a new passenger car type handbrake located to the left of the driver underneath the instrument panel. There is nothing on the interior or exterior of this jeep that is damaged, no rot through rust, no exterior rust on the outer surface and minimal surface rust to the chassis that is from natural aging. It has NEVER been exposed to salt water or mud and has never been driven off road, never. The tires on this jeep have some wear on them however are still worthy of quite a few miles. The speedometer was recently replaced with an exact replica due to the temperature gauge on the original speedometer malfunctioning, the original speedometer is available also if the buyer would like to have it. The maintenance of this vehicle has been remarkable considering the Jeep's age. It has truly been babied by both of it's original owners. The Jeep was bought brand new by a Korean War Veteran in 1961. It was sold to a retired individual by the original owner in 2001. I bought it from the second owner about 2 months ago. I intended to sink a few bucks into it and fully restore this jeep however it is not something I am able to do at the present time. Here's the best part about this Jeep: IT HAS ONLY 19,000 ORIGINAL MILES ON IT!!!! This baby maneuvers like you wouldn't believe! I will give the buyer the new door skins and Bimini Top. It has a soft top as well that was recently purchased and is in excellent condition. It has been garage kept and only driven in nice weather it's entire lifetime. I have driven it about 20 or so miles since I bought it. I'm willing to negotiate with anyone who is serious about taking this winner off my hands. I am moving soon and would rather for it to go to someone who will love it as much as it's been loved over the years. The title is clear. The buyer won't be disappointed! Good Luck!!!! |

Chrysler recalls 350k vehicles over ignition switches
Thu, 25 Sep 2014Chrysler has announced a recall covering 349,442 vehicles due to ignition switches that can either become stuck or move without warning. All of the affected vehicles are from the 2008 model year, and were built before May 12, 2008.
The automaker has learned that ignition keys on some vehicles "may not fully return to the 'ON' position after rotation to the 'START' position during engine-startup," the company said in a statement. Additionally, "an ignition key may not fully return to the 'ON' position after rotation to the 'START' position and may inadvertently move through the 'ON' position to 'ACCESSORY' or 'OFF.'"
Chrysler says it is unaware of any related injuries, and notes that while reduced braking, engine or steering power is possible in such instances, the airbags are not affected. The later stands in contrast to General Motors' recent rash of high-profile recalls, and it's an important distinction that Chrysler (understandably) felt necessary to call out in bold print in its press release.
Stellantis says its 2021 performance has been better than expected
Thu, Jul 8 2021MILAN — Stellantis softened up investors ahead of its electrification strategy event on Thursday by flagging that 2021 got off to a better-than-expected start despite a chip shortage that has hit automakers worldwide. Stellantis, which was formed in January from the merger of Italian-American automaker Fiat Chrysler and France's PSA, faces an investor community keen to hear how it plans to come up with a range of electrified vehicles (EVs) to rival Tesla. At its "EV Day 2021" kicking off at 1230 GMT, Stellantis will disclose significant investments in electrification technology and connected software as it aims to be an industry frontrunner, it said in a statement. In April, Chief Executive Carlos Tavares said it would offer low-emission versions — either battery or hybrid electric — of almost all of its European models by 2025, and they should make up 70% of European sales and 35% of U.S. sales by 2030. Stellantis, the world's fourth-biggest automaker, has 14 brands in its stable, including Jeep, Ram, Opel, Fiat, Peugeot and Maserati.  Stellantis EV Day coverage: Dodge will launch the 'world's first electric muscle car' in 2024 Fully electric Ram 1500 will begin production in 2024 Jeep will have 4xe plug-in hybrid models across the lineup by 2025 Stellantis teases mystery electric Chrysler concept Stellantis previews 4 electric platforms: Here's how they'll be used Fiat says all Abarth models to be electric from 2024 Opel Manta E will be the electric revival of the classic German coupe Stellantis says its 2021 performance has been better than expected  At a similar EV strategy event last week, French rival Renault announced that 90% of its main brand models would be all-electric by 2030, whereas previously it had included hybrids in its target. Germany's Volkswagen, the world's second-biggest automaker after Toyota, expects all-electric vehicles to make up 55% of its total sales in Europe by 2030, and more than 70% of sales at its Volkswagen brand. Stellantis said its margins on adjusted operating profits in the first half of 2021 were expected to exceed an annual target of between 5.5% and 7.5%, despite production losses due to a global shortage of semiconductor supplies. Stellantis shares listed in Milan were down 2.6% at 0920 GMT, underperforming the broader European car index. Bestinver analyst Marco Opipari said Thursday's news was positive but that the stock was suffering from profit taking as it had moved up about 20% since the end of April.
Jeep Wrangler diesel likely after 2015 model refresh
Thu, 28 Feb 2013We automotive journalists aren't always the right people to ask about whether a US-spec vehicle should or should not be offered with a diesel powertrain (hint: the answer is usually "YES"). But when it comes to the iconic, off-road-ready Jeep Wrangler, we aren't the only ones who have been clamoring for an oil-burning engine behind that famous seven-slat grille. To that end, it appears there's good news on the horizon, as Jeep CEO Mike Manley recently told Ward's Auto that the "Wrangler is on the radar to get (a) diesel."
"I'm confident that the Grand Cherokee will show just how large a demand there is for diesel, and I think what that will do is reinforce the need for us to target Wrangler as a vehicle that can take a diesel," Manley told Ward's. The most rugged of Jeeps is scheduled to get an overhaul around 2015-16, and the diesel powertrain will likely be introduced around that time.
This year alone, Chrysler will be adding a diesel engine to the Grand Cherokee SUV, as well as the Ram 1500 pickup and Promaster utility van.
