1988 Jeep Cherokee XJ 2 door. I have owned this rig for 11 years now and have decided to part ways with it. I have two young kids and don't have the time to play with it or finish it. Just put in a custom built 4.6l short arm Hesco stroker (www.hesco.us) with more than 4k invested into it. Lots of detail put into the looks and function of the engine and drivetrain. Engine runs really strong and tight. No leaks, perfect compression. It was professionally built and assembled by Mopars Engine's West aka Dave's Engine machining in Newark Ca. Look them up. It currently sits on a Rusty's 6.5" custom built long-arm kit up front with a steering conversion kit with the stock Dana 30. Front axle is strong and rebuilt. New kingpins, new steering ball joints, recently new brakes and pads, fresh fluids. Rear axle is a stock Dana 35c with a fresh set of 4:88 Yukon gears carrier, bearings, seals, and gears. Transfer case was just rebuilt with a new chain and pump along with an advanced adapters SYE and new Tom Woods shaft. It’s got a few dings/dents here and there typical of its age and getting door dings in parking lots. Roof has pealing, but the body is untouched and has not been cut up. Interior has SCAT racing bucket seats and several Auto meter gauges added including a wide band system for the motor. ZERO rust. Lots of time and money spent keeping the underside painted and clean looking. Never off road. Hell of a good rig for someone to quickly wrap up and hit the Rubicon with or just have fun going to work in. Lots of other stuff done that I know I forgot to mention. Lots of receipts to prove it. Currently registered nonoperational (Needs to be smogged or Green Tagged here). Runs and drives awesome. Extremely fun. More power than the little jeeps needs. All smog equipment (Bolt in Catalytic Converter, Charcoal gCanister, I.E,) is included. If I had the time and money I would do it myself. Call or contact for details. Can deliver to Sacramento CA area if the price is right, other than that, the Jeep is as is and buyer is responsible for pick up/delivery. Can take more photos for serious buyers.

Here is an old album from about 3 years ago that contains photos of the Jeep and engine build. White Jeep in album is already sold.

1914 Ford Model T at Historic Greenfield Village | AutoblogVR

Tue, Sep 6 2016

We drive all of the newest and most sophisticated cars, but a 102-year-old Ford is one of our recent favorites. Senior Editor Alex Kierstein headed to historic Greenfield Village in Dearborn, MI, to learn to drive a Model T in the latest AutoblogVR segment. Kierstein picks up the Model T fairly quickly, despite its controls. Though they were designed more than a century ago to be simple and easy to use, driving a Model T is complicated and counter-intuitive to the modern motorist. But by the end of his lesson, Kierstein has it all figured out and is enjoying himself. In our other new segment, Detroit Manufacturing, Senior Editor Greg Migliore showcases the city''s industrial might. He tours a modern Fiat Chrysler factory that churns out Dodge Durangos and Jeep Grand Cherokees and then wanders the ruins of the mythical Packard Plant. There's also some tasty and unexpected twists in this VR episode. Each week, new episodes will launch on the AutoblogVR App. We'll preview them here on Autoblog, but for the full immersive experience, head over to the app, which you can download for free from the App store and Google Play. Be sure to try it with a cardboard viewer, too! Ford Jeep Automotive History Driving Classics Videos VR Original Video Detroit ford model t tour 360video
