1966 Jeep Cj5 327 V8 Small Block Chevy, Muncie 4 Spd, 4x4 on 2040-cars
Joshua Tree, California, United States
Strong running 1966 Jeep with a Muncie 4 speed, two gas tanks, boxed in frame with steel plates welded in, reinforced steering box, 2" receiver hitch, detachable tow bar. This jeep was sitting for a few years when I got it. It was obviously loved by the previous owner who passed and left it to sit. I bought it last spring and have been working on it since, just dont have time and money to work on it now, could make a great winter project. You'll need to do some work on the wiring to hook up the headlights, tail lights etc. also need to install new gauges (included), bleed brakes, obviously a spare tire, and a little love here and there. It is registered in CA and is smog exempt. There are minor spots of rust here and there, but nothing that is "rusted out".

China orders Jeep to investigate Wrangler fire risk
Mon, 06 Jan 2014It's been some time since we've heard anything about fires related to the Jeep Wrangler (foreign or domestic), but it sounds like the go-anywhere SUV could be in hot water once again in China. Bloomberg is reporting that the Chinese government is ordering Jeep to investigate the matter and, in the meantime, also recommending Wrangler owners to not drive their vehicles in "extreme conditions" due to a "relatively high risk" of catching on fire.
There is no indication as to how many vehicles or which model years are affected, but the previous fire problems in both the US and China - which led to investigations but no recalls - were traced back to automatic transmission fluid leaks. The article, however, does not say what the potential problem is this time around as Jeep has not released a comment on the matter. The official notice, in Chinese, can be found here.
