This is a great place to start on a classic GW. I am selling this 1990 model "as is" for my father. The frame and body on this jeep are very solid and are nearly rust free. It would make a great total restoration project or a cool ride with just a quick engine swap. I will do my best to describe this vehicle accurately below.

It was (barely) driven to where it is sitting this past September but is currently in NON RUNNING condition with the carb removed and in the cargo area.That is also when these pictures were taken but it hasn't moved since. It will have to be trailered to your location. The carb was flooding out, it has a bad rear main seal oil leak and a distinct rattle when running. A complete engine rebuild will be neccessary. The rear tail light wiring harness has been removed and is in a bag in the back floorboard. It was starting to fail in places and needs some TLC/ re-assembly. It is missing one AC hose, the aluminum trim from the extreme rear edge of the roof and one AC vent. The front grill has been squished on the passengers side by the headlight assembly. It originally had a rear wind deflector that has been removed. For some reason when you hook up the battery the buzzer that tells you the key is in the ignition when your door is open comes on and won't go off. The paint is oxidized, has surface rust on the hood and roof, and will need to be replaced. The fabric from the headliner was coming down and has been removed. The front seats are cracked and showing their age and there is a bare spot in the carpet in the back floorboard. Windshield is cracked. The drivers side rear tire has a slow air leak.

With the exception of the above negative points, this Jeep has minimal surface rust and is a straight, very re-buildable project. I started rebuilding an 88 several years ago that was in much worse shape than this one. I wish I had waited a couple years for this as a starting place.

I have a clear title in hand.

2014 Jeep Compass/Patriot sing their swan songs with a six-speed automatic

Tue, 15 Jan 2013

Unless the governor, Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne, gives them a reprieve, the 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot are expected to meet their makers sometime next year. Should they perish, it's a shame that it would happen just as they've shed the continuously variable transmission that was their major bugbear, and just as the Compass has gotten its best looks yet.
Both will roll with a proper six-speed automatic transmission, courtesy of PowerTech. Noise-resistant gears and tuning by Chrysler boffins should alleviate the unappealing sounds that were given off by the older CVT. Unless, that is, you choose to have either model equipped with Freedom Drive II; the serious off-road package, available on both baby Jeeps, will still come with the CVT. The base transmission on the entry-level Sport trim remains the five-speed manual.
Otherwise, it's minor changes for the Compass, set off by the new 18-inch wheel option, trim pieces around the car and a back-up camera. The Patriot gets seat-mounted airbags, but is carryover otherwise. With their expected demises perhaps a year away, not much has changed otherwise. Engine choices comprise the 2.0-liter four-cylinder with 158 horsepower and 141 pound-feet of torque or the 2.4-liter four-cylinder with 172 hp and 165 lb-ft.

The 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:

Hank the Autodog takes a ride in the long-term 2014 Jeep Cherokee

Wed, May 13 2015

Autoblog readers, meet Hank, my 40-pound, six-year-old Shar Pei and Staffordshire Terrier mix, a combination also known as a Pit Bull. Pit Bulls and car enthusiasts have a lot in common. They're a little intimidating to your average man on the street, but at the end of the day all they want to do is feel the breeze in their ears. Dogs who love car rides are the ultimate enthusiasts, and Hank especially is a canine connoisseur of cars. There is nothing Hank likes more than to hop in and go for a ride. With an owner like me, he has developed refined tastes when it comes to cars. As our long-term Jeep Cherokee is about to leave the Autoblog Garage, and since the weather is warming back up, it's the perfect time to give our Autodog one last spin in his favorite Jeep. We wanted to see what a car ride looks like from a dog's perspective. Luckily, we have a cache of GoPros and plenty of cars on hand to give Hank one last chance to go for a window-down ride. After many pets, treats, and drives around town, we put together this video montage of Hank's best day ever.
