Eagle Bridge, New York, United States

Up for auction, my 1978 Jeep Cherokee S (basically a Chief without the sticker and paint on the bottom) 2 door widetrack with 65,000 original miles! Jeep was from Las Vegas NV last year. 360 2 barrel, turbo 400 automatic, quadratrac full time 4wd with original Dana widetrack axles. Other than a little rust on the rear fender flares it's genuine Rust free and I believe all original paint. Body itself is great and solid as can be. Excellent frame and floors. Very nice chrome, manual rear window that works good. Tilt steering, cruise control and AC. Last 2 were not working if I recall, been in storage since fall. I did a tune up putting in new plugs, MSD wires, cap and rotor, and did a compression test while I was there which showed 150psi across the board. Previous owner changed the carb but I have the original. Other than that this is an all original unmolested Jeep. Runs good, drives solid too but needs tires. I have driven it locally a bunch but nothing long distance. It spent it's life in Oregon and Vegas before me so it's clean and dry. Still has the original exhaust system! Don't see that too often. Power steering and power disc brakes that work good. Front end seems tight enough for an old Jeep. Paint and stripes are thin but it still shines. A truly remarkable survivor Cherokee, not many left this clean. I was going to lift it and put some aftermarket wheel/tires on it but have enough projects. It's also so original I was having a hard time doing it. Also has a stout pushbar on the front, not sure if it's a genuine Jeep accessory or what but I was surprised at how sturdy it is. Original wheels, nice glass, trans shifts good, no smoke. Other a few cracks in the seats the interior is pretty nice. Any questions just ask. Please bid to own and don't waste your time or mine, I appreciate it. Will gladly help you arrange shipping but buyer responsible for cost and getting it gone. For sale locally as well so auction may end anytime until reserve is met. You can call me at 518-281-605eight or email through ebay. I have sold a few cars on ebay and other than one guy being upset about a non working e-brake on a 1953 (which I took care of NEXT DAY) I think everyone has been happy and found my description to be honest.I'm easy to deal with so call if your serious. Thanks for looking!

Jeep Cherokee appears in Chrysler's second Super Bowl spot

Mon, 03 Feb 2014

The second of three spots produced by Fiat Chrysler Automobiles for this year's Super Bowl featured the all-new 2014 Jeep Cherokee. Aired during the game's half time show, the minute-long ad didn't strike as anything new or innovative from an automaker with a reputation for above average Super Bowl spots, but it did show the controversially styled Cherokee in the best light possible.
Called Restless, the commercial shows young, adventurous types doing the sorts of things that young, adventurous types do: surfing, skateboarding, cliff jumping, staring off into the sky with a pensive expression, etc. Scroll down to watch Restless for yourself and let us know in Comments if Jeep managed to hold your attention during half time.

Chrysler nets $1.6B income in Q4, Fiat profit up 5%

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

Chrysler announced its 2013 financial results today and unveiled its new name and decidedly bank-like logo. Amid the announcement, Chrysler posted big gains in income, while Fiat didn't perform to analysts' expectations.
For 2013, Chrysler had revenue of $72.1 billion, up 10 percent from 2012. Net income reached $2.8 billion, a 65-percent increase. It was the company's third straight year of annual profits.
In terms of unit sales, Chrysler sold 2.4 million cars worldwide in 2013, up 9 percent. According to Automotive News, 1.8 million of those vehicles were sold in the US, a 14-percent increase. The sales growth boosted Chrysler's US market share to 11.4 percent, up 0.2 percent.

Fiat 500X poised for Paris catwalk

Wed, 05 Feb 2014

We've known for some time that the new, Fiat-based baby Jeep (which may or may not be called the Jeepster) is set to arrive at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show. What we weren't sure of was whether its platform mate, the so-called Fiat 500X, would be doing so alongside or at a later date. Well, according to Reuters, we'll get to see the first all-wheel-drive 500 later this year in the City of Lights.
Yes, we can expect the 500X to arrive at the 2014 Paris Motor Show, according to an official with an Italian trade union. The unnamed source cited retooling at Fiat's Melfi factory, in southern Italy, which currently produces the Grande Punto. It's expected that the newest member of the growing 500 family will replace the Suzuki SX4-based Fiat Sedici, although when the X will go on sale remains an open question.
According to Reuters, both the Jeepster and 500X will be built alongside each other in Italy. Whether the 500X will cross the pond with it's slat-grilled cousin, though, remains to be seen (we're leaning towards yes).
