1986 Jeep CJ7 Renegade. "Frame off" restoration just completed. Mint Mint Mint! Everything on this Jeep is either brand new or completely restored. Tastefully redone... It was painted "Mango Tango" the 2011 Jeep Wrangler color. It sits nice with a brand new 4" suspension lift and brand new 33" tires. Its a 5 speed that has the original 258 inline 6 cylinder engine completely redone with new Weber carb. Fiberglass body and windshield frame. The frame was sanded down and painted with por-15 (a rust preventative). It has new brakes, brake lines and master cylinder. New fuel lines, new radiator, basically everything under the hood is new. The body interior and underside were all painted with "herculiner" as well as the underside of the hood and inner fenders. (yes, i realize fiberglass does not rust... However, it looks much cleaner and I prefer it over carpet). New side and rear bumpers, new fender flares, new rear tail lights, new headlights, new turn signal lights, new interior knobs, new shifter knobs, new shifter boots. All new seats (front and rear). I have the bikini top on it now, but I also have a full soft top and full soft doors as well as the original hard top in good condition and the original full hard doors that are usable but would need to be restored. I never used them as I built the jeep as a toy to cruise around town in the summer and to grab ice cream with the kids. Also, I have a garage so I never needed to install either top. It was finished last September and I've only driven it a handful of times... Probably less than 50 miles since its been finished. It was a father-son project that was a lot of fun to build, but unfortunately I'm one of those people that can't just be happy with what they have. This is a "Bad Ass" Jeep that's not over-done with useless accessories or gaudy decals and it needs to go to a new home.

2014 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year finalists announced [w/poll]
Tue, 10 Dec 2013The 2014 North American International Auto Show is right around the corner, which means it's high time we found out which cars and trucks would be finalists for the prestigious North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards.
The finalists - three in cars and three in three trucks/utilities - are dominated by American brands, with two-thirds of the finalists hailing from either General Motors or Chrysler (don't worry Ford, there's always next year), while outliers from Mazda and Acura can be found in each contest. Here now is the list of finalists for the big prizes:
2014 North American Car of the Year:
2014 Jeep Patriot and Compass ditch CVT for six-speed auto
Mon, 07 Jan 2013It was reported in Automotive News a few months ago, but a new report on Allpar.com adds some details to news that the 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot will get a six-speed automatic to replace the CVTs they currently use. According to a tip provided to Allpar, the 2014 models will begin production in March and be on sale sometime in the summer. The Jatco-sourced CVT in use until now - Jatco is owned by Nissan and Mitsubishi - has been often criticized, and many won't be sad to see it go.
The incoming six-speed automatic is said to be an all-wheel-drive cog-swapper that's the work of Hyundai and Magna and has been paired with the DynaMax AWD system used in the Hyundai ix35 and Kia Sportage. It won't be the only Chrysler product using a transmission with ties to Hyundai: the six-speed automatic in the Dodge Dart comes from Powertech, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hyundai. With the Patriot and Compass said to be driving down the trail for the last time this year, it will be a short run for the new tranny and the rumored addition of a backup camera and power rear liftgate on the Compass.
Chrysler recalling over 200k vehicles across its brands
Wed, 10 Apr 2013With more than 200,000 units across six separate recalls and almost all of its brands, it appears that Chrysler has officially jumped headfirst into the recall pool this month. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued three official recalls for the automaker, and The Detroit News is reporting that the automaker itself has announced three more.
The biggest of the recalls applies to about 120,000 Dodge Charger, Dodge Challenger and Chrysler 300 models for 2011 and 2012 due to faulty wiring harnesses for the seat-mounted side airbags, which could lead to these airbags not deploying in the event of a crash. A little more than 60,000 two-wheel-drive versions of the 2007-2008 Dodge Nitro and 2008 Jeep Liberty SUVs are being recalled due to a heat shield that could cause the driveshaft to break, which if that isn't bad on its own, could then hit underneath where the airbag sensor is mounted, causing the airbags to deploy. Wrapping up NHTSA's recall notices, about 20,000 Jeep Patriot and Jeep Compass models for 2012 are also being recalled due to a problem with the fuel tank transfer tube that could lead to the vehicle stalling. The LX car recall campaign is going into effect this month, while the other two will start next month - all three notices are posted below.
In addition to the official NHTSA recalls, The Detroit News is also reporting that Chrysler is recalling more than 16,000 Ram trucks and a small number of Dodge Dart sedans. Around 6,500 2013 Ram 1500 trucks will be recalled due to an improper adjustment of the parking brake cable from the factory, while 7,000 Cummins-powered 2013 Ram Heavy Duty trucks are being recalled due to an engine cover that does not have as much heat resistance as it is supposed to. Finally, a total of 46 Dodge Dart sedans are being recalled due to a problem with the brake calipers and/or parking brake.
