     This NO RESERVE auction is for a 1977 Renegade CJ7 Levi's edition 304 v8 Jeep. This Jeep was bought new in Pickens South Carolina at the famed Hinkle Jeep dealership. The dealer sticker is still on the front grill along with the "Hinkle" rear bumper. It also has the original 15 x 8 chrome spoke wheels that were a Hinkle option. Google "Hinkle Jeep" if you are unfirmiliar with them, they were the largest in the world in the seventies. This Jeep has always been a local Jeep as it was bought off the original owner just a couple of months ago. This CJ is very solid with just a couple of rust issues at the usual spots. There is some rust where the jack mounts under the drivers seat. There is also some where the reinforcement is just behind the Jeep logo on the side of the tub. The tailgate does need to be replaced also. The lower spare tire mount is tore out of the body and does need attention. The floor boards have some surface rust on it as well but they are very solid, just surface.The frame and underside is very rust free, no mud inside the frame. All of these issues are normal for an original Jeep and are easy to fix. Under the battery is very nice, just some surface rust.

     The Jeep fires up and runs like it should, choke and high idle works well. You can drive it and lug it down and almost count the cylinders firing and doesn't miss a beat, no smoke or rattles.The power steering does leak and is weak, no other major leaks. The transmission and clutch works like they should as well as the transfer case. The CJ does have front disc brakes and they work well. There are no locking hubs, just the stock factory bolt on plates. The CJ did come with the heavy duty cooling and had the factory shroud and clutch fan. This does have the manifolds and pipes that go under the frame out to side pipes. The doughnut gaskets do leak. 

     The Jeep had not been repainted, those are the original decals. But the original owner did take some black spray paint and tried to "doctor" it up in places. The CJ drives good down the road with just little bit of wander, the shackle bushing are original and look good. The dash is uncut, there is a old style aftermarket radio in it. The factory tan dash pad is there and in very nice condition, no cuts or cracks. The original rear seat is still there but the front ones either have been recoverd or replaced, the seat brackets are original though. Black outside color and tan interior. The top is ok, it will keep you and the Jeep somewhat dry.

     Sorry guys, I feel like I am rambling on, just trying to cover everything so when you come to pick it up there are no surprises. If you want a nice CJ either to restore or make into a nice driver then this is the one! This does need to be trailered home as there are some dry rot in the tires and it does need to be gone over before it is driven much. I did drive it up and down the road but only up to about 40 mph. No shipping on this.....$500 to my paypal account within 48 hours of end of auction. I am located halfway between Atlanta and Charlotte right off of I85. If you want to come and look. Thanks

Top horsepower-per-dollar cars in 2017

Tue, Feb 17 2015

Bang for the buck. That quasi-scientific statistic is bandied about by motor heads everywhere from classrooms to barrooms, though the truth of the matter is that it's exceedingly complex to measure. A fair performance-per-dollar index would include something like cross-referencing MSRP (Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price) with point-to-point times on a track or driving route, which is obviously hard to do comprehensively. But, for the sheer joy of talking about cars and playing with a big spreadsheet, there's always the horsepower-per-dollar index, which is more straightforward, albeit hilariously flawed. There are vagaries even with this simple formula, of course: MSRP for vehicles can change at a moment's notice, to say nothing of the bottom-line shifting that happens with local deals or showroom negotiation. For this list we're running with the straight MSRP wherever possible, and as recently reported as we can get it. All the vehicles on this list are 2017 models, and all trims are reported where the lowest price and differing power levels intersect. Some choices were made for personal preference and some for sanity, avoiding things like all 48 trim levels of the Ford Transit, all with the same horsepower). If this list were a simple top ten, or even a top fifty, you'd be bored to tears with all the red, white and blue that is represented. Following perfectly with conventional wisdom, American cars really do lead the world where hp/$ is concerned. So, for the sake of variety (and the sheer joy of seeing a minivan 'win' one round of this thing) I've sorted out some top five and bottom five lists for broad power categories. Let's dive in. Less Than 100 Horsepower Okay, okay, this is hardly a category we'll grant you. But we've often tried to click off all the sub-100-hp cars on sale in the US, and making this list gave us an excuse. It also illustrates that none of these smallish vehicles bring cheap horsepower to the table - for that you'll need a motorcycle. The segment-leading Chevy Spark (above) asks just over $139 for each hp, and that Smart Fortwo Electric Drive has hp on sale for about the same price as its very distant family cousin, the Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG (insert your favorite Smart joke here... we know you want to).

Dodge shows off the electric Charger, and is the Wrangler 392 done? | Autoblog Podcast #815

Fri, Jan 19 2024

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Road Test Editor Zac Palmer. They kick things off with a roundup of the week's news, and of course the first photos of a pre-production electric Dodge Charger Daytona are the first topic. After that, the pair chat about the possible demise of the Jeep Wrangler 392 via a Final Edition meant for 2025 and ruminate on if they'd be up for buying one of the many Teslas that Hertz is offing from its rental fleet for cheap. Once the news is wrapped, the two move along to what they've been driving, starting with the first drive of the 2024 Acura TLX Type S. Then, they welcome our new Subaru WRX long-term test car and review both the Nissan Altima SL AWD and Nissan Pathfinder Platinum.
