1984 Jeep Scrambler CJ8
DETAILS: For auction is my unrestored, original, 1984 Jeep Scrambler CJ8 4X4 with 74,006 original miles. This Jeep is finished in original Sebring red with a gorgeous red interior. The stock white wheels, hardtop and trim on the doors really set off the color combination. This Jeep is equipped with the inline 6 cylinder motor (258ci), an automatic transmission, air conditioning, power steering and power brakes. This vehicle rides and drives extremely smooth and is very tight. The four wheel drive works as it should. The exterior has gorgeous original paint and decals. It shines very nice. As it is original and was driven, however slight, It does have a few chips and dents (mostly the spot welds from the factory-people familiar will know exactly what I mean). The bed is free of rust and is in very nice original condition. There is some very small bubbles appearing near the bottom of the round panel under the rear license plate (very slight, you might observe in the photographs).
The interior is amazing. The dash pad has no cracks, there are no rips in the seats, the door panels are pristine. The carpets are very nice. The gauges are awesome with just the slightest amount of patina. The only thing that I have found not original in the interior is the aftermarket radio that was installed some time ago. Everything works (yes the clock), minus the stated dinosaur "upgraded" radio.
The undercarriage shows like one (or better than one) with this amount of miles. It is very clear and shows a minimal amount of wear. There is no rust through. The engine compartment also shows very well with original stickers in place.
The vehicle also has its original dealer supplied documents included (owners manual, etc.)
See the photographs for further and inquire if additional are needed. The reserve amount will not be divulged but, it will be more than fair compared to some I have observed to sell in the last couple of weeks.
HISTORY: The parents of a very close friend of mine owned this vehicle clear back in the 90's. It was always garaged and I could use half of one hand if asked how many times I personally saw it out of their garage. I always told them that when they went to sell the vehicle to let me know. This happened in 2012. The vehicle was purchased and I did have some maintenance performed. This consisted of a new carb, fuel lines, valve cover (replaced the oem plastic one that warps with an aluminum) and gaskets, brake pads, all fluids, etc. I am ONLY selling this vehicle to generate capital for a business venture. Period. It really makes me sick.
PAYMENT: There is a $500.00 deposit due within 24 hours of the conclusion of the auction with the remaining balance due, in full, within seven days of the conclusion of the auction. I will accept payment by means of cash (if picking up in person), bank cashier's check, bank transfer, personal check, etc. NOTE: This vehicle WILL NOT leave my premises prior to your funds clearing my financial institution (usually seven to ten business days). And NO, I will not take a check from overseas and send you cash back. LOL. Good one.
SHIPPING: This is the responsibility of the purchaser. I will aid in anyway that I can but, I am not responsible for the vehicle once it leaves my possession. I can be available for pickup from a transportation company, just ask. Also, the purchaser may pick the vehicle up at my residence.
CLOSING: I challenge you to find a better survivor Jeep Scrambler. As nice of an original vehicle that this is, it still is a 29 year old Jeep. Therefore, there is no warranty expressed or implied. Please contact me if any additional photographs are needed. I will not take any trades (see above for reason of sale). If I have failed to list anything necessary, do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you and good luck in the auction.

25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango SUVs recalled over brake feel
Mon, 10 Mar 2014Chrysler has announced that it is recalling over 25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs from several markets over concerns about brake feel under hard braking. The affected models are from the 2012 and 2013 model years, although the actual dates of production aren't available. 18,700 are in the US, while 825 are in Canada, 530 are in Mexico and a further 5,200 outside of North America.
According to a statement, Chrysler was informed of the issue by a component supplier for the Ready Alert Braking system, which primes the brakes in anticipation of an emergency stop. A component in the system was restricting the flow of brake fluid too much.
As Chrysler is quick to point out, the way the brakes functioned was in compliance with regulations and there are no reported cases of drivers losing braking power. Instead, the issue rests with what Chrysler calls a pedal feel that "was not consistent with customer expectations." So it would seem Chrysler is being proactive and fixing a problem not because there's a legal issue at work, but simply because it doesn't feel the way the manufacturer wants it to. Well done.
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.
2014 Jeep Cherokee: Introduction
Tue, 27 May 2014When we look back at some of the more shocking product launches of recent yeras, the Jeep Cherokee is certainly high up on the list. And we aren't just talking about its off-the-wall, polarizing design.
For starters, it brought back the iconic Cherokee nameplate - something Jeep enthusiasts have coveted for ages. But beyond that, it brought a new evolution for the Jeep brand. After all, the Cherokee is car-based - using the same compact platform that underpins the Dodge Dart and Chrysler 200. It has a greater focus on technology and refinement than ever before, in an effort to appeal to a new crop of Jeep customers. And powering it all is a new (optional) V6 engine paired with an equally new nine-speed automatic transmission.
Can the Cherokee's car-based roots still allow for a vehicle that's superb when the going gets tough? Will its design still be a love/hate affair in one year's time, or will it start to blend in? Is the powertrain strong enough to not only support the needs of daily driving and road trips, but blaze a few trails as well? We're aiming to answer all these questions, and more, over the next 12 months. Welcome to the Autoblog long-term garage, Cherokee.
