I am offering for sale my 40,000 mile, pristine condition Jeep CJ-7. It has a documented history since new that includes no damage, no rust, no excuses! Its early life consisted of summertime fishing and camping trips, with a canoe on top, some tent gear and fishing poles in the back. I don’t believe it has ever seen bad weather.. one look at the frame, and you will agree. The all-original body is in flawless condition. The drive-train consists of the tried-and-true 304 V-8 coupled with a 3-speed manual transmission and floor shifter. It also has the rare power steering and power brake options. It starts, drives, and responds like it did when brand new. The steering is tight and straight, drive line is quiet, ride is solid, and it brakes straight and strong. The dual exhaust has a subdued but authoritative note to it.. not loud and overbearing, but just a hint of the powerful V-8 that sits behind it!

A frame-up restoration was done on a rust- and damage-free body. A gorgeous, show-quality three-stage candy apple red paint finish that is worth over $10,000 was applied. The paint (material alone) is over $1,500, and there are tireless hours of preparation and finishing work invested that demonstrate the labor of love with which this CJ was restored. Condition of the body is documented with photo albums of pictures showing what it looked like going into the restoration, during, and after.

It has new Dick Cepak all-terrain tires on Mickey Thompson CJ wheels that are made specifically for this Jeep. They are the proper size and offset for the correct height and stance. It has a brand new vintage sound system that looks like factory AM radio, and even has the Jeep name badge, but has 250 watts of outstanding sound and is coupled with an MP3 port that is hidden. Absolutely no dash modifications were done to accommodate the stereo.

It has tasteful additions of stainless steel accents- namely the grill, rockers, mirrors, and instrument cluster surround. The body, drive-train and suspension are all as-original and correct- the only modifications are headers & dual exhaust system and an Optima battery.

Included are the soft top, side curtains, and doors, which are all off and stored in nice 8/10 condition.

After a thorough critique of the vehicle’s condition, and a review of it’s documented history, you will agree that this is without a doubt one of the finest examples of a vintage CJ-7 still in existence. It is refined with the show quality paint work, but still rugged and correct. The finish quality draws attention everywhere this beauty is taken. It has recently undergone a thorough appraisal for insurance purposes that declare it show quality throughout and noted absolutely no defects or short-comings in its value. Coupled with that, it has all the right equipment and options, most notably the 304 V-8, power steering and power brakes.

Bid with confidence on this legendary CJ that will undoubtedly only continue to rise in value as time passes.

FCA is setting a five-year strategy: Here's how the last one played out

Thu, May 31 2018

We're slightly more than four years removed from Sergio Marchionne last five-year plan for FCA, a tell-all where the Italian-American automaker divulged its plans for the 2014 through 2018 model years. It was a grand affair, where Sergio told FCA investors that all was right in Auburn Hills, Alfa Romeo and Maserati were making comebacks, and the fifth-gen Dodge Viper received a mid-cycle refresh. You can read every last one of those past predictions right here. We're on our way to Europe to see Sergio's sequel, coming out Friday straight from FCA's Italian headquarters. (Bloomberg reports a plan to expand Jeep and Ram globally, combine Alfa Romeo and Maserati into a single division for an eventual spinoff, and downsizing Fiat and Chrysler. Also, EVs.) But before we arrive in Italy and find out exactly what Marchionne has planned for 2019 through 2023 as his last act as CEO, let's take a minute to tally up the results of his last term based on the same scoresheet we used in 2014. Now, we're only five months into 2018, so much of this — including vehicles like the Ram HD and Jeep Grand Wagoneer — could still debut this year. For those, we'll mark things TBD. We're not going to draw any conclusions or make any objectionable remarks. We're simply going to let the stats speak for themselves.

FCA facing class-action lawsuit over Grand Cherokee shifters

Fri, Jun 24 2016

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is now facing a multi-million-dollar class-action lawsuit over the recalled shifter design in the 2014 and 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee, and the 2012 to 2014 Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300. Grand Cherokee owners, galvanized by Star Trek actor Anton Yelchin's fatal accident, filed the suit. According to The Wall Street Journal, the owners allege that FCA concealed the shifter's problems. On top of restitution, the class action suit is demanding a court order force FCA to issue a do-not-drive warning to owners of affected vehicles until it fixes the problem. FCA started distributing a software fix to dealers last week – according to the WSJ, the update will add more warnings about the shifter's position and will automatically kick the vehicle into park if the driver steps out. FCA's shifter problems have been bubbling under the surface as part of the company's recall issues. The US government dinged FCA with a $105 million fine last year for its recall practices (or lack thereof) last year, but things have exploded this week after Yelchin's death. The 27-year-old, best known for playing Ensign Pavel Chekov in the rebooted Star Trek film series, was killed after his 2015 Grand Cherokee rolled down his driveway and pinned the actor against a security gate. According to Jeep CEO Mike Manley, the company will dispatch engineers to analyze Yelchin's vehicle. Related Video:

FCA spends $1.5 billion to retool plant for Ram production

Tue, Jul 26 2016

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) is planning to invest $1.48 billion to retool its Sterling Heights Assembly plant in metro Detroit to build the next generation of the Ram 1500. The investment will allow the assembly plant to go from unibody to body-on-frame construction. FCA also confirmed that production of the Chrysler 200 will end in December in order for the plant to be altered. As previously reported, FCA is looking to move production of the 1500 from its current assembly plant in Warren to the Sterling Heights Assembly plant (both are in Michigan). While FCA has not released any official plans for the Warren Truck Assembly Plant, Automotive News reports that the plant will be retooled to manufacture the Jeep Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer SUVs. Earlier this month, FCA announced plans to invest $1.05 billion to retool the Jeep Wrangler factory. FCA's current investment plans are part of the automaker's push to put competitive products on the road.
