I will be listing this Jeep 1 time. If It does not sell, I will keep it and work on it over the winter. Like most Jeeps, this one needs some minor things to be 100% I just don't have time for the Jeep right now. I own 7 Jeeps. Every Jeep has a story and so does this one. The person that re-built the Jeep was in NY. He sold it to a guy in DE. The Jeep had a Chevy 406 small block with over 500hp. Way too much for a tall CJ5. That person took the 406 out and sold it to me with a Chevy 305 V8. I suggest you look at the Jeep if you are serious and close enough by. It's garage kept in Coopersburg PA 18036. Clear title in my name. Jeep can be shipped. YOU MAKE ALL THE ARRANGEMENTS. There will be a $300 fee on top for shipping. The shipper normally comes on a week day and I need to take off work. Shipper cannot make it to my rural house, so I have to pay someone to rollback it to a shopping center. Jeep is not insured, registered, or inspected. It will pass, except I don't think the horn is hooked up. Now for the Jeep: Had a brand new frame, no rust. Think it's by Advance Frame Works, over 2k Unknown make fiberglass body and front end. Nice paint, except drivers fender needs repaint. Nice Best top soft top and soft doors. Currie built Shaved Ford 9 inch front rear, Detroit Locker, 3.73 gears Currie built Hi Pinion Dana 60, disk brakes, e brake, Detroit Locker, 3.73 gears These rears over 9k for the pair. They look brand new yet. Custom front shaft, CV rear shaft Has stainless hinges and mirrors Custom front bumper with 11k Quadratec Winch and 8 inch Hella lights Custom rear bumper with tire carrier. I have a brand new 37in MTR for it, but no rim. A rim is $70. Bumpers and winch/lights $1500 Oversize 25 gallon fuel tank, custom skid, reverse lights, LED rock lights, sunken rear tail lights, Rocker Gaurds Vanco power brake system, stops awesome with 4 wheel disc, over $500 Aluminum radiator with electric fan, over $700 GM SM465 granny 4 speed trans with adapter to Dana 300 twin sticked, 1k for that setup with adapter New flywheel, Center Force clutch, hedders, nice custom Flow Master exhaust system out the rear Chevy 305. I don't know much about the motor. Motor runs good, has new 327/350hp cam, new oil pan, new holley 600, HEI distributor. Motor actually surprised me with the power, new plugs, MSD wire, cap and rotor. The oil pan is dry and so is the rear main seal. The power steering pump has a leak at the rear connection and I think the valve cover has a leak. Interior has a custom dash, but is missing 2 gauges. Wires are there for the gauges. Needs Volt and temp gauge. Oil pressure is 60 - 80lbs when running. PAINLESS wiring harness Tilt wheel, tuffy steel center console with a CD player and amp. Speakers in dash and on the floor. Seat covers are a little faded, there are harnesses for seatbelts. Has a rear seat Has a full roll cage tied into the frame. The spreader bars are too far in and right over your head. Bars need to be mover toward the outside. Rims are brand new steel $300 Tires are Goodyear MTR. The 4 on the Jeep all have over 1/2 tread and they are radial 37 x 12.5 x 17 spare is Brand New Has a AGR steering box and borgenson steering shaft $500 Dual shocks up front, dual stabilizers Has working heater I'm sure there is more I'm missing. Needs rollbar spreaders moved, some gauges in dash, stereo wires hooked up. Needs battery The AGR box is a quick ratio. I can sit at idle and turn the steering wheel with my pinky and turn the 37's. This makes for some touching steering while going down the road. I would put a stock box in and sell that AGR. I can drive it, I've had over 20 Jeeps. I had a computer alignment and it's right on. Fix the one or two small leaks. Oil pan and rear main is good, don't think intake is leaking. Original owner lifted the Jeep with spring under springs. The pack consists of 12 leafs. Also has about 1 1/2inch body lift. I would take some springs out of the pack or just buy 4 new BDS springs and drop it down a little. That's an honest description of this Jeep. I have 100 percent feedback. The frame and rears are less then the starting bid. Like I said, I will keep it if it doesn't sell and work on it over the winter. I do have a trailer. I can deliver the Jeep, with full payment, up to 150 miles for $2 a loaded mile. Can store, with full payment for up to 2 weeks. |

FCA's U.S. sales chief sues company for wrongful retaliation
Thu, Jun 6 2019Some fresh controversy is brewing at Fiat Chrysler Automobiles as The Detroit News reports that the head of U.S. sales has filed a federal whistleblower lawsuit against the company.. Reid Bigland, who's also in charge of the Ram truck brand, alleges that FCA made him a scapegoat for wrongful sales inflation practices and fixing vehicle sales statistics, which are currently under investigation by federal agents. Bigland claims that FCA executives punished him for cooperating with the federal investigators in the case by cutting his pay by more than 90 percent, according to the lawsuit he filed. The plan apparently was to use the money saved to pay for fines following any settlements made with the Securities and Exchange Commission. So far, the lawsuit alleges that FCA cost Bigland over $1.8 million in income. "They had the largest growth in retail sales in 17 years last year and refuses to pay him," Deborah Gordon, Bigland's lawyer in the case, said to The Detroit News. "Why is that? Because he participated in the SEC investigation and they don't like what he said." Bigland claims he just cooperated with the SEC investigation by testifying about FCA's sales reporting, from the time he took the position to the period prior to being appointed the company's U.S. sales chief. "In late 2018, presumably as a way to wrap up their investigation with some result, the SEC suggested to plaintiff that he admit to some wrongdoing as to defendants' monthly sales reporting," Gordon further said in a statement as part of the lawsuit. "The SEC also suggested a resolution involving some penalty to FCA. Because (Bigland) had not engaged in any wrongdoing, and there was no wrongdoing, he declined to do so." However, exacerbating the issue is the fact that Bigland reportedly sold his shares in the company last year, prompting FCA to act against him even more. FCA came under fire recently by federal agents in at least two separate investigations, potentially exposing conspiracy and corruption between company executives and private entities. The investigations are being led independently by the U.S. Attorney's Office and the FBI. So far, eight convictions were reportedly secured, with one including former Fiat Chrysler Automobiles Vice President Alphons Iacobelli, as one of the defendants. Iacobelli was one of the former top labor-relations executives for the automaker.
Jeep's new Chip Away commercial has us hunting Al Pacino's back catalog
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Chrysler has done a pretty good job as of late turning its television commercials into pep talks or rallying cries, but for its first ad for the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee, it turned to Al Pacino's inspirational speech from the movie Any Given Sunday. In the movie, Pacino's character talks about how football is a game of inches, but the commercial, titled Chip Away, focuses more on the attention to detail that Jeep has exhibited on its updated flagship SUV.
Centering around the newest Grand Cherokee model, the luxurious $47,995 Summit trim level, the commercial shows off some of the hand-stitched leathers and real metal and wood accents found inside the cabin. Check out the new 60-second spot by scrolling below.
Shanghai debuts, Jeep's new Rubicon anniversary rigs | Autoblog Podcast # 777
Fri, Apr 21 2023In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Associate Editor Byron Hurd for a recap of the past week's worldwide debuts along with some updates from their recent adventures. They start off discussing the rumors of a new Ford Mustang Raptor and what that means in the context of previous rumors of a Corvette SUV. Then it's time to talk Shanghai, where Polestar, Buick, Volkswagen, Porsche and Lincoln all had big reveals. After that, they segue to Byron's trip to Moab for the 2023 Easter Jeep Safari preview where he drove the AEV Level II Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 20th Anniversary Edition. From there, they reminisce about Mustangs in a nod to the nameplate's 59th anniversary, after which they stick to the theme with a sub-$15,000 RWD used-car discussion. Is there anything worth buying in this price bracket in today's economy?
