1964 cj5 Tuxedo Park Mark IV. Tuxedo Park is a trim package in the eary 60's which included chrome bumpers, which are almost impossible to find (these have a $2000 re-chrome job), chrome column gear shifter, 60/40 splint front bench seat. Almost every nut bolt and washer has been replaced with either stainless steel or hardened on the whole jeep (motor, transmission, transfer case, chassis, and body) looks really neat. Everything has been rebuilt, replaced, cleaned and painted except the red body paint which has a great patina. Anybody can put on a shiny new tub but this thing has character. Could have it clear coated but I just keep thick coat of wax applied. Body does have some rust - in front of door openings as seen in pic. Floor pan has some holes - but cleaned and painted, see pic. Looks like someone hit the spare tire carrier and tried to patch, see pic. It took 50 years to get this way - should last a lot longer now that it's all painted. Very good condition for an original unmolested jeep. Front fenders have a little denting - rumor has it that it hit a cow. Lived it's life in North Mississippi and Alabama. Axles, frame, and drive shafts cleaned and painted. Transmission blasted painted and rebuilt. Transfer case blasted and painted and new seals. Motor not rebuilt but runs good except a little exhaust valve leak - no oil leaks, blasted and painted. New water pump, oil lines, alternator, battery. Rebuilt steering box and new tie rod ends. All new brake system. New exhaust system which is ceramic coated. Tires are not new, ok but some cracking. No parking brake. Finally found a NOS speedometer (after a year of looking) can buy a new version but it doesn't look like the original. Gauges and speedo works (reads a little fast) with new speedo cable. NOS Sparton self canceling turn signal switch. New windshield frame and gasket. All new springs, bushing, and shackles. New upholstery, floor mats, new steering wheel, horn button, and horn. Stainless rear view mirror and tail lights. Heater and windshield wipers are not installed - I do have them. No top, or spare tire. Great looking - everyone has to comment on it. Call, text or email with any questions 901 483 3395. Thanks, Bill. For sale locally, reserve the right to end early. May add more if I thing of anything. Mileage is inaccurate - old speedo was working showing 64k but title listed as mileage unknown.

Jeep and Ram could be spun off from FCA, says Marchionne

Thu, Apr 27 2017

Jeep is surely the biggest single feather left in the cap of the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles portfolio. Under Sergio Marchionne's leadership, Jeep went from fewer than 500,000 annual sales in 2008 to 1.4 million in 2016, and is on track for 2 million by 2018. Add in the brand's legacy, status as one of the most recognizable nameplates in the world, and rabid fan base, and Jeep has extraordinary monetary value to its parent company. Investors and analysts have certainly noticed Jeep's inherent value. According to The Detroit Free Press, Morgan Stanley's Adam Jonas asked FCA chief Sergio Marchionne if he would ever consider spinning Jeep and Ram, FCA's dedicated truck brand, into a separate corporate entity, and he responded with a simple "Yes." Jonas estimated Jeep's worth in January of this year at $22 billion. Ram was valued at $11.2 billion. Marchionne has a history of spinning off brands while keeping them part of FCA's corporate umbrella. The most noteworthy example of this value maximization was with Ferrari, which now trades on the New York Stock Exchange and rakes in $3.4 billion in annual revenue and close to $435 million in net income, reports the Free Press. Marchionne still serves as chairman and CEO of Ferrari, and Fiat heir John Elkann owns 22 percent of the Italian marque's shares. Even if the offloading of Jeep and Ram into a separate entity would amount to little more than a profit-driven ownership change on paper, it would be huge news to the brands' loyal fanbases. In any case, such a move would likely take years to actually happen and probably wouldn't mean much at all to the products that Jeep and Ram produce. In other words, Jeep fans can keep the pitchforks in the shed ... for now. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.

Jay Leno rides high in Fab Fours Legend

Mon, Mar 23 2015

Jeep showcased some pretty awesome concepts at its Easter Safari in Moab a few days ago, but few if any of them were quite as extreme as what's rolled in to Jay Leno's Garage for this latest video installment. It's called the Legend, and it was made by aftermarket bumper manufacturer Fab Fours to demonstrate its capabilities. It's obviously based on the Jeep Wrangler, but it's riding high on 50-inch tires with a jacked-up monster truck suspension, giant fenders, a chopped-down red-tinted greenhouse and something its creators call a "grumper" that integrates the bumper into the grille. Or vice versa. Though most of the oily bits have carried over from the production model, it's hardly what you'd call "practical," but it's sure to turn a lot of heads... even one as massive as Jay's.

NHTSA boss Strickland weighs in on Jeep recall fracas

Sat, 15 Jun 2013

Adding yet another chapter to the ongoing Jeep recall story, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) head David Strickland has gone on record to defend the government's request that Chrysler recall 2.7 million out-of-production Jeep Grand Cherokee and Jeep Liberty vehicles after the agency investigated fiery rear-end collisions that have reportedly killed at least 51 people over the years. In statements made to The Detroit News, Strickland said, "We felt very strongly that the process that we undertook and the findings that we made and ... we made the decision to issue a recall request. We do not take that very lightly." The top US auto safety regulator stopped short of telling owners to park their cars until the automaker takes action. "They can make their own risk assessment and their own choices," he said.
Chrysler does not intend to recall the models, insisting the "vehicles met and exceeded all applicable requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, including FMVSS 301, pertaining to fuel-system integrity" when they were manufactured and sold. "The company does not agree with NHTSA's conclusions and does not intend to recall the vehicles cited in the investigation. The subject vehicles are safe and are not defective," Chrysler announced last week in a statement. "We believe NHTSA's initial conclusions are based on an incomplete analysis of the underlying data, and we are committed to continue working with the agency to resolve this disagreement."
Legally, Chrysler has until June 18 to formally respond to NHTSA's request. If the automaker does not take action, NHTSA is expected to issue a formal finding and seek a recall.
