1979 Jeep Cj5 Golden Eagle Sport Utility 2-door on 2040-cars
Ball Ground, Georgia, United States
|
Second listing with lower reserve. 1979 Jeep CJ5 Golden Eagle. This was an original Golden Eagle. 29,000 miles on the ticker? I have the original gold spare wheel and tire that has never been on the pavement. It had the tach and clock common to the upgrade. It was repainted by the second owner. It had new Golden Eagle decals at that time. The jeep has power steering with a chrome power steering pump. A new power disc brake kit from Collins Bros jeeps with slotted high performance rotors. Jeep stops straight and drives great. No steering slop. Original 3 speed T-150 transmission rebuilt with new synchronizers and bearing kit Shifts like new. Dana 20 transfer case works great. The jeep came originally with a 304 V8 which is available. The engine was replaced with a Tuff Dawg 365hp AMC Jeep 360cid crate engine. See their web site ($5,000) tuffdawgengines.com. The engine only has a few hundred miles on it. This is a Sunday driver that only gets out once or twice a month when it is pretty. The jeep sounds great. Impressive horsepower in a light weight vehicle. Engine has a Powermaster chrome alternator. Aluminum pulleys from bulltear.com. New Holley Street Dominator Caburator. Hooker ceramic coated headers. Chrome Hooker side pipe mufflers not glass packs. Sounds good but not too loud. New Powermaster high torque starter. New centerforce clutch and pressure plate. Mickey Thompson Classic Lock wheels with 33" ProComp tires. Tires like new. Bestop low back seats. They just feel right in a vintage classic. Retractable factory lap belts. SS dash. The original dash was cut for speakers. It looked bad so I replaced it. All the gauges work!. I sent the factory clock off and had it rebuilt for $200. This is the original clock not aftermarket. The color was off on the after market clock. It has a factory oil and volt gauge. Same deal, after market color doesn't match instrument cluster at night. Fuel gauge works. Factory tach works. The windshield washer works, see photo. The parking brake light works. It has Hella headlights with an upgraded relay wiring harness ket for them. This is a slick kit. Lights are brighter than new vehicle headlights. If it is on the Jeep it works as good as or better than factory. There is no rust on this Jeep. It spends its life in a plush garage. Bestop super top with the good doors that convert to half doors. Bikini top. I have only had the top on it a couple of times. I only drive it when it is warm and pretty although the top and heater work great. New high performance heater blower motor. Too much to list. I didn't think I would ever sale it but I want to put the money in another airplane. I am not a dealer, I am a jeep connoisseur. I have owned one or another cj for the last 30 years. I bought this jeep because it was the real deal, solid honest, factory V8, bullet proof 3 speed, dana 20, no rhino lined over rust jeep. I just made it better. Nothing to do to it but drive and enjoy. evanmarble@bellsouth.net |

Jeep Cherokee won't get diesel until sales of oil-burning Grand Cherokee improve
Tue, 01 Jul 2014Okay Jeep fans, you want more diesel options? Time to step up and prove it. The only way Jeep will offer a diesel powerplant in the Cherokee, according to brand head Mike Manley, is if sales of the Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel nearly double.
Currently, about eight percent of the Grand Cherokees sold feature the 3.0-liter, EcoDiesel V6. That's simply not enough to warrant the bringing an oil-burning Cherokee to the US market, despite the vehicle's presence in Europe, where it's sold with a 2.8-liter diesel V6.
"Cherokee is slightly different because of its weight and size. When I think about bringing Cherokee diesel here, I would like to see Grand Cherokee diesel get much higher than eight percent," Manley told Automotive News. "It would have to be in mid-double digits."
Chrysler reports $166M net income for Q1, down $307M vs. 2012
Mon, 29 Apr 2013Preliminary first-quarter results from 2013 have been announced by Chrysler, and the company is reporting a net income of $166 million on revenue of $15.4 billion. Compared to this period last year, net income is down $307 million and revenue has dropped $1 billion.
Chrysler says that its quarter was negatively affected by the costs associated with launching its 2013 Ram Heavy Duty, 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee and preparation for the return of the all-new 2014 Jeep Cherokee pictured above. The launches should provide a strong second half of 2013, says the automaker. "We remain on track to achieve our business targets, even as the first-quarter results were affected by an aggressive product launch schedule," said Chrysler Group LLC Chairman and CEO Sergio Marchionne.
On a positive note, the automaker says worldwide vehicle sales are up 8 percent from one year ago, a number pushed by a 12 percent bump in U.S. retail sales. In addition, domestic market share has risen slightly, up to 11.4 percent from 11.2 percent last year. Read more in the official statement below.
Chrysler adding 200 jobs at Ohio Jeep Wrangler plant
Fri, 15 Mar 2013Chrysler is betting that the Jeep Wrangler will continue its strong sales surge as it continues to push the legendary brand out across the globe. The Auburn Hills automaker is reportedly adding 200 workers at the Toledo, Ohio plant that builds the Wrangler. What's more, those new hires will be at their posts quickly - they'll be on the job by April 1. Of those 200 workers, 130 employees will be there to relieve those who need breaks.
Why do they need so many relief workers? The Toledo Jeep Complex is currently working at a torrid pace with two ten-hour shifts. A third shift has been ruled out for the moment because of a production botttleneck - the plant's paint shop is already maxed out. According to Reuters, Wrangler production in 2012 cleared 200,000 units, and US sales were up by 16 percent.
Another part of the Toledo plant is presently down as Chrysler retools the line to build Jeep's divisively styled Liberty replacement, the Cherokee (seen in our gallery below). Production for the new model is scheduled to begin toward the end of May.
