Here's your opportunity to own a rare 1980 Jeep Cherokee Wide Track Sport Utility 2-Door with 258 CU 6 Cylinder Engine and T 176 4 Speed transmission. This Jeep only has 26,300 original miles!
This beautiful Jeep Cherokee is a one owner vehicle and has never been driven out of the county where it was originally purchased. It even comes with a copy of the original dealer's invoice sticker. It has always been garaged (not actually stored in a barn with farm animals :) and hay !). The body on this Jeep is absolutely 100% rust free! It has original factory Ziebart undercoating. It has been strictly driven for pleasure. You will be amazed at the condition of the paint and interior! You might think this is a showroom model or a six month old Jeep. There are only a couple of blemishes which you will want to have redone if you want this Jeep to look like brand new. Like all original Jeep Cherokees and Grand Wagoneers of this vintage, it needs a headliner. There are some minor scratches on the inside of the tailgate (see photos). The rear bumper needs re-chroming due to some pealing in places and the chip guards on the rear wheel well flares need to be replaced or clear coated due to some minor road rash. (When wet, they disappear, so clear coating may remedy the scuffing). The original AMC white spoke wheels could be re-painted but actually show quite well. The tires are the original BFG's it came with. They have lots of tread but naturally, there is some cracking on the sidewalls due to their age. The running boards are the original AMC Jeep running boards and are in like new condition. The rear window is heated and works perfectly!
The 6 cylinder engine purrs like a sewing machine and the transmission shifts perfectly. It has its original radio (no CD or MP3 of course).
This beauty has all of its original flooring which is in amazing condition as is the original vinyl upholstery. There are no chips or cracks in the glass. Chrome is beautiful except as noted regarding the rear bumper. 
(Please inspect all high resolution photos for a complete description).
If you are looking for a really low mileage vintage Jeep Cherokee, you have just found it! This Jeep is that cream puff you've been looking for! 
As you know, these don't come on the market often. 
The photos say it all! 
Don't miss this opportunity...these rarely come along in this condition! A true collector's car.
If you like it, make us an offer...you might be surprised!...before someone else does...it shouldn't last long!
We can help arrange transportation or delivery at your request.

Lexus gets top brand marks from Consumer Reports; Ford, Jeep hit hard

Tue, 25 Feb 2014

Consumer Reports has released its 2014 Car Brand Report Cards, with Lexus again reigning at the top and doing so with the same industry-topping score of 79 that it registered in last year's Report Cards. This year, the institute credited its lineup for being "usually quiet, comfortable, and fuel-efficient," noting it's the only brand on the list "to achieve an excellent average overall reliability score." The Car Brand Report Cars list is meant to rank the best all-around vehicles based on CR testing and reliability results tallied by subscribers it surveyed. Each brand included must have sufficient test and reliability data for at least three models, a standard which left out 11 marques including Fiat, Jaguar, Land Rover and Porsche.
This 2014 Brand Report Cars edition is the first of a new format in which sub-brands have been broken out from their parent brands, with Acura using this year to move up the leaderboard into second place with a score of 75 for its "reliable, well-finished and somewhat sporty models." The top three was rounded out by Audi, climbing from eighth to third by scoring a 74 for "well-crafted interiors, nice handling and good gas mileage." Audi scored highest in the road-test portion, its improved reliability aiding its rise. The top nine was completed by Subaru, Toyota, Mazda, Honda, Infiniti and Mercedes-Benz.
Ford and Jeep weighed in at the other end of the rankings, Jeep taking the lowest overall score in the road tests and hampered by "a mix of spotty reliability." Ford was sunk by reliability issues with its MyFord Touch infotainment system which consumers found troublesome enough to negate its cars earning "solid test scores" for being "very nice to drive." Perhaps the rumored switch from Microsoft to Blackberry's QNX for the next generation SYNC will help them out. Cadillac's score also took a hit for infotainment reasons after it was the leading US brand last year, the CUE system in the XTS dragging Cadillac to the bottom of all General Motors brands.

Jeep sets all-time sales record in 2012

Wed, 09 Jan 2013

Last year was good to Jeep. Chrysler has announced its trail-rated brand set an all-time global sales record in 2012 by moving 701,626 units. That number easily surpasses the previous record set in 1999 when Jeep sold 675,494 models. All told, the brand saw a 19-percent sales increase worldwide over 2011, and much of that swell can be traced directly to the Wrangler. While the Grand Cherokee led Jeep sales, the Wrangler posted record numbers both globally and within the US, moving 194,142 and 141,669 units in each market, respectively.
Meanwhile, the Compass beat its previous global sales record with 103,321 units rolling off of dealer lots. In the US, Jeep sold 62,010 Patriot units, breaking that model's previous record as well. Jeep's impressive performance in 2012 marks the second year in a row the brand has seen double-digit percentage sales increases. Check out the full press release below.

Jeep Liberty under investigation for door fires

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

The Jeep Liberty has already had plenty of attention for possible fires thanks to the first-gen model's fuel tank, but now the midsize Jeep is under the microscope of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration for another fire-related concern. NHTSA has opened an investigation for the 2012 Liberty after receiving two reports of electrical fires in the driver's door.
According to the investigation summary, around 80,000 vehicles could potentially be affected by this problem. In both reported fires, the drivers noticed smoke and then flames from the master power window switch, and they had to pull to a stop and exit through the passenger side of the SUV. According to Autoguide, there was one injury to a motorist who suffered burned fingers while trying to open the driver's door.
Interestingly, the Dodge Nitro is not yet involved in this investigation, even though it was still around for the 2012 model year; the Nitro ended production in 2011 about a year before the final Liberty rolled off the line for the 2013 model year. Scroll down for the official NHTSA investigation summary.
