1973 Jeep Cj5 (304 V8) Colorado Vehicle (low Reserve) on 2040-cars
Jenison, Michigan, United States
|
I purchased the Jeep a couple years ago from the second owner who
purchased the vehicle in Colorado in 1981. The vehicle has not seen a Michigan winter Now has complete glass body The body is white gel coat (has never been primed or painted) Aftermarket jeep seats Original 304 V8 equipped (has newer Jasper long block with low miles). Edlebrock intake and carb. (very quick vehicle) 3 speed manual (newer 3 speed, but have orig trans and xfer case. The orig trans needs 3rd gear) I believe the axles to be original - note sure of the exact specifics regarding the size or ratio Dual exhaust, 3" suspension lift 33" Grand Prix tires ex. cond (12.50 x 15”) Front tow bar (flat hauls great), Reese hitch Only has a half top - no doors The frame and suspension are very solid with no rust although there is
an area on the Front passenger side that was repaired prior to 1981 presumably as a
result of an accident. The repair was done well and has held up well for over 30 years. This is a very nice old Jeep but I don't use it and need the space it
is taking up. You can call Dan at 616-836-4369 with any questions. Please only bid if you are serious.
If you have less than 3 transactions or less than 95% positive feedback
please call me to discuss the vehicle before you bid. Note: the winning bidder is responsible for making arrangements for
shipping. A deposit of $500 needs to be
posted to my Pay Pal account within 24 hours of the end of the auction. The balance needs to be paid in full before
the vehicle leaves my possession. |

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.
Chrysler recalls 468,700 Jeep Grand Cherokees, Commanders over rollaway risk
Mon, 13 May 2013Chrysler has issued a recall covering a combined 469,000 units of the 2005-2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee and the 2006-2010 Jeep Commander (inset). Of that number, 295,000 are in the US, roughly 33,000 in Canada and Mexico and the remainder in other markets. It seems an electrical fault in the transfer case can allow the affected SUVs to shift into neutral on their own, while an Associated Press report says that Chrysler had "found cracks in a circuit board that turns the four-wheel-drive system on and off." The issue was discovered when an owner started his car remotely and it rolled away.
Chrysler is expected to begin notifying owners in June 2013, who can then take their cars to dealers. The dealer will reflash the final drive controller free of charge. There's a bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below with more information.
Jeep teases pair of Moab concepts early
Tue, 19 Mar 2013With the 47th annual Moab Easter Jeep Safari coming up at the end of this month, Jeep is preparing to roll out six new off-road-ready concept vehicles. The first two being teased are the Jeep Grand Cherokee "Trailhawk II" concept and the Jeep Wrangler "Slim," and while we have no information on either, we at least get an idea of what they'll look like.
We can't tell why this Wrangler is called Slim, but it has a nice black-and-red paint scheme with a serious off-roading front bumper and five-spoke beadlock wheels. There's even less we can figure out about the Grand Cherokee's Trailhawk II concept except that it appears to be painted up in the same Crusher Orange paint job as the recently introduced SRT Viper TA. We'll likely more of these as well as peeks at the other Moab concepts as we get closet to this year's Moab Easter Jeep Safari, which will be held March 23 through 31.
