Jeep 1978 Cj 7 on 2040-cars
Nolensville, Tennessee, United States
Below I tried to add my you tube links, but I cant seem to get them working. I hope you can cut and past it is worth to hear her run!!! I bought this Jeep in 2011 just after it had a frame off restoration. The work was great and done by the owner's brother. However, he built her a no power no nonsense, 25" tired every day commuter. When I got it, I drove it for a year while I put together the cash to re-do what had been done. Below is a list of what work I have done to the Jeep to make it more of a Jeep than a yuppie day cruiser. Pulled the inline 6 cyl and put in a Chevy 350 with about 310hp Replaced all steering components. Switched all brakes to slotted and drilled disk with chevy s10 calipers New 8" brake booster and larger than spec master cylinder Redesigned interior of the cab. Changed dash to custom with custom dials. Put in a new transfer case and sticks, added a new sound system, custom roll bars. And a false rear floor for door storage. New 35" tires New rear and front with all new gears. New paint job, less than a year ago. The engine has been shined up and tricked out at a heavy cost. New springs and shocks New aluminum radiator and shroud New custom welded front bumper with 10,000lb winch Matching back bumpers Custom security system I know I am forgetting some things so I will wrap it up like this. 4 years he did a frame off on the jeep and put 2,800 miles on it. 1 and a half years ago I started my build. Six months later I was done and now for the past almost two years, it has been my every day driver. I have put 10890 miles on it in that time. I have changed all fluids and rotated tires every 1000 miles. I detail (including the undercarriage) at least once a month. I have a set of soft doors, a set of half steel and half soft doors. I have a whole shelf of extra parts that come with the purchase, like a starter extra can lights, and other misc. parts. There is also a brand new, never used soft top. If you are funded and interested, please feel free to call me or come by to see her. I live south of Nashville and my phone number is 615-879-5872 |

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.
2014 Jeep Cherokee gets official in a hurry
Fri, 22 Feb 2013Automakers work very, very hard to keep their new vehicles under wraps until they can present them in exactly the way they want it - typically choreographed under the bright lights of an auto show, or perhaps with photos or video in an idyllic location. Spy shooters and leaks, in other words, keep executives and public-relations types up at night.
This is likely to be one of the most polarizing designs to come out in 2014.
Take today, for instance, when the team over at Jalopnik got a big scoop - the first undisguised shots of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, a model whose name wasn't even officially confirmed yet. The clandestine images taken inside of a factory were blurry and didn't exactly show off the crossover's radical new contours in the same sort of flattering light that Jeep probably would've wished for its product reveal. So the Auburn Hills automaker has wisely reacted by spilling at least some of the beans on the new model, giving us these four photos and confirming the Liberty replacement's name, Cherokee.
Jeep Wrangler Polar Edition coming to America
Wed, 23 Oct 2013Jeep originally took the wraps off its Polar Edition Wrangler at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September, and at the time, we figured this would be a Europe-only affair. (Perfectly fine, since we US customers haven't exactly been lacking special edition Wrangler models over the years.) But now, and as Jeep says, just in time for winter, the automaker has announced that the ice cold Wrangler will be hitting North American showrooms in November.
Based on the Wrangler Sahara model, the Polar Edition can be had in either two- or four-door body styles, with a unique Hydro Blue paint job as the featured color. (Buyers can also opt for less-special Billet Silver and Bright White hues.) Other exterior enhancements include a body-colored hardtop, 18-inch gloss black wheels, the Powerdome (power bulge) hood, and unique decals all around the body.
But the Polar Edition isn't just about some paint and stickers. Jeep has fitted this Wrangler with a Dana 30 front axle and Dan 44 rear axle, as well as the Trac-Lok anti-spin electronic rear differential. Like all US-spec Wranglers, the Polar Edition uses Jeep's 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, producing 285 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. Both a six-speed manual and five-speed automatic transmission are available.
