No Reserve Auction!! 1985 Jeep CJ7 Renegade 79k Original Miles This Jeep CJ7 is a beautiful classic that gets a lot of attention when driving around town. Yesterday I drove it to the mountains twice, once without the hardtop and once with it. The Jeep drives great, no vibrations or shimmy and has no problems keeping up with traffic in town, on the highway or in the mountains. Engine: 258 4.2L 6cylinder motor that runs great, is very peppy and runs good. Overall the motor runs great, I don't notice any leaks on the ground after driving and it does not smoke. The carburetor needs some adjustment. When driving the rpms are a little high at stop signs almost as if the choke is not opening. The Valve cover gasket has the classic leak and the exhaust muffler/tail pipe could use replacing. Transmission/Transfer Case: 5spd T5 Manual Transmission that shifts perfect, no play in the transmission and no grinding or crunching. The Clutch is very tight and does not slip. The transfer case shifts easily in and out of 4x4. It is a Dana 300. Drivetrain/suspension: The Jeep drives excellent and has that soft tight stock suspension. There aren't any loud clunks or noises, it is very smooth. The drivetrain and suspension are completely stock. The power steering is super sensitive and the power brakes stop the jeep easily. Interior Controls/Switches: Everything in the interior works including the gauges, speedometer, odometer, wipers, blinkers, horn, cig lighter and heater. The heater cranks and blows hot. Paint/Body/Rust: The paint is Garnet Red Exterior with Renegade Striping. It appears that at one point it had been resprayed and the renegade decals were not installed at that point. The front driver fender needs fixing or replacement. The paint is beautiful and very reflective, shiny and lots of luster. The front grill/fenders and windshield frame have many sand chips. The body has rust spots on both rear quarters, both are a little larger then a silver dollar and there are a couple small blister spots under the decals. The body mounts are all very solid and not rusted thru. Overall very clean, the rear of the jeep does not show any rust near the tailgate or body mounts. Interior: The interior is beautiful, the Garnet Red interior is in excellent shape. The seats are incredibly clean and do not have any significant rips, tears or seem separations. The rear seat on the top has some small cuts. The carpet is in excellent condition, very clean without any stains or rips/tears. The drivers side floor under the carpet is rusted thru and will need to be cut out and a new floor installed or covered up. The interior paint is in great condition otherwise. The dash pad does have a few cuts in it too. The radio works and has the stock speakers behind the dash. Hardtop/Doors: The black hardtop has not been refinished and is the original. It is in great shape and could use a fresh coat of paint at some point. The doors do not have any rust, the windows roll up and down very easily and the locks work from the inside. Unfortunately I do not have a key for the doors, it disappeared. The wing windows open and close with ease and the seal tight. Overall: This is a beautiful Jeep and ready to go. With a little bit of TLC you could have a rare classic to enjoy for many years to come. The CJ7 is used and 29 years old it may have blemishes I didn't capture on my camera. I do my best to illustrate the condition, I may have missed something so be sure to ask all questions you have prior to bidding or winning the Jeep. The Jeep is being sold as is, where is, without warranty or guarantees. I am not required for your state emission or safety inspections including Colorado.

Jeep Cherokee Trail Carver is a more rugged Trailhawk
Wed, 06 Nov 2013We briefly mentioned the Jeep Cherokee Trail Carver that was heading to SEMA last week when discussing the Mopar lineup set to be shown in Las Vegas. At the time, though, we weren't able to dive too deeply into details. But with SEMA in full swing, we were able to sneak over and grab some snaps of one of the first modified Cherokees we've seen. The Cherokee is, after all, kind of an unknown quantity in the modification department, being so new and featuring such a polarizing design. We were quite interested to see what Mopar could come up with.
Starting with the Trailhawk 4x4 and its 3.2-liter V6, the engine is fitted with a Mopar cold-air intake and a new exhaust, although it's not clear what sort of power boost has resulted. We'll admit, we were hoping Jeep and Mopar would get a bit more aggressive with the Cherokee's suspension (has anyone thrown a few-inch lift on the new Jeep yet?), but there's no mention of upgrades beyond the knobby, off-road tires. Those should do some good when the going gets rough, while rock rails are there to protect the Auburn Pearl paint on the body.
Speaking of that paint, it's complemented by an interesting graphics package in contrasting black and Crush Orange. The cabin sports Katzkin Amaretto leather seats, along with tech-friendly items like a wireless charging system for cellphones and wireless internet.
2013 AEV Brute Double Cab
Fri, 11 Jan 2013These are the guys who bring an M777 howitzer to a knife fight. In terms of overall rugged utility, the all-new 2013 Brute Double Cab from American Expedition Vehicles (AEV) is about as overkill as they come, and we can't seem to get enough of the beasts that this company produces. Unlike most aftermarket firms, always striving to lower cost and increase volume (but at the expense of quality), Michigan-based AEV takes pride in its OEM-quality design, engineering, manufacturing and testing. Everything is as good, or better, than the stuff from the factory, and they have been doing it this way for more than 15 years.
Launched at the recent 2012 SEMA show was the 2013 AEV Brute Double Cab. Its debut marked the company's expansion to a four-door Brute on the newer JK platform (drawing inspiration from the Land Rover Defender 130). I recently spent a few hours with the new truck in sunny Southern California, though unfortunately, due to time constraints, I was limited to pavement-only driving impressions.

‘Star Trek’ actor's family settles with Fiat Chrysler over his death
Fri, Mar 23 2018LOS ANGELES — The family of late "Star Trek" actor Anton Yelchin has settled a wrongful death lawsuit with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV over the rollaway crash of a Jeep Grand Cherokee that killed the up-and-coming actor almost two years ago. Terms of the settlement, which was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court on Tuesday, were not disclosed. The lawsuit filed by Yelchin's parents, celebrated Russian figure skaters Victor and Irina Yelchin, is believed to be the first wrongful death complaint filed over Fiat Chrysler's April 2016 recall of more than 1.1 million vehicles due to a rollaway risk. Yelchin, 27, best known for playing navigator Pavel Chekov in the "Star Trek" movie reboot, died in June 2016 when his 2015 Grand Cherokee rolled backward in the steep driveway of his Los Angeles home, pinning the actor against a brick wall and fence. Yelchin's final role was in the indie film "Thoroughbreds," which was released this month. In a statement, Fiat Chrysler said on Thursday the company is "pleased that we've reached an amicable resolution in this matter. ... We continue to extend our deepest sympathies to the Yelchin family for their tragic loss." Messages left with Yelchin family attorney Gary Dordick seeking comment were not immediately returned. The lawsuit also accused Fiat Chrysler of negligence, product liability and breach of warranty. Dordick said when he filed the lawsuit that Fiat Chrysler had mailed a recall letter to Yelchin that was received seven days after his death. Final recall notices were sent during that time, but interim notices had been mailed at least 17 days before Yelchin's accident, Fiat Chrysler said. At the time of Yelchin's death, the rollaway problem had been tied to at least 68 injuries, 266 crashes and 308 reports of property damage. Drivers complained they would exit vehicles with the engine running falsely believing the vehicle was in park. Fiat Chrysler furnished a software upgrade to the affected 2014-2015 model year Jeep Grand Cherokee sport utility vehicle as well as 2012-2014 Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300 sedans.Reporting by Eric KelseyRelated Video:
