FULL AUCTION.......HIGGEST...BIDDER WINS

Introducing the American legend with the 21st century drivability.

This is not your average jeep. It is a custom build by a Master Craftsman. This Jeep was built to be the baddest Jeep on the planet by combining race track performance with superior off road capability. Build was completed in 2010 and Jeep was a "trailer queen" show jeep for the past four years. Only 1850 miles on this engine since the build.  This Jeep started out as an 88 wrangler renegade. It's grill and headlights have been converted to a CJ. The suspension was converted from leaf to coil over (JK).

Engine is a bowtie 383 stroker with a bowtie aluminum heads custom built engine was built for the race team owner Glenn Clements. (Owner NASCAR 51) Jeremy Clements Nationwide series. I looked at several hemi jeeps before purchasing this one and they can't hold a candle to the on/off road performance of this Jeep.

This motor was incredibly expensive coming from a master builder. Check them out. I can't add to their reputation. Compared to cost of jeep, motor became minor

The cost of the motor build became relevant to the cost of labor for the year to complete the build

I wiped off all leaf springs and converted to full coil spring suspension to JK Rubicon specs, to build and produce and obtain incredible drive ability, and I must say it is fun and safe at any speed

All metal is original metal, no aftermarket metal at all!

Specs heckler paint system on jeep, chrome orange to electric pearl red, to black cherry with a silver allusion on base coat.

Painted frame, cleaned interior of frame with long wand and steam jenny, then sand blasted. All frame was submerged in P.O.R. primer, followed by 8 coats of Imron train paint.

Look at most Chevy powered jeeps and you will see a common automatic transmission (very easy)

Or NV 4500 popular with rock crawlers, it has a granny gear, or the AMC 4 speed uses a 3/4 " dia, but if you drop the clutch with more than 250 ish horsepower it snaps the main. In the Chevy the old Muncie was good up to about 380 h.p. but good shifting. In this build a super T-10 by Richmond it's a real street or strip choice, but it's not for 4 wd it's a long trans, but I bought a new standard super T-10 and had my contact swap the tail section for an atlas clock ring and ordered a 100% billet steel CNC main that's 1 1/4 " in dia. Rated at 1250 lb. of tork, and is less than 1/2 as long as the stock, &merging into an atlas transfer case also 1250 lb. of tork rating, 1350 U joint's, (dooly size)

A 2.77 1st 2.20 2nd 1.50 3rd1 to 1, 4th quick shift kit. A racing 4 speed and 4 WD. I have never seen another one.

We give you a list of 80% of cool name brands, briefly discussed drive train, paint, suspension, but the real value was in the master craftsman of build. It takes a very grounded expert with vast knowledge and experience in the area of Hot Rod's, Classic's, Collectables, understanding the quality on eccentric levels to recognize a master piece by another master craftsman.

There are so many things and so much to list; I can't possibly list it all.

The build of this jeep exceeded $120,000

Toledo mayor, Jeep champion Michael Collins dies from heart attack

Mon, Feb 9 2015

The city of Toledo is mourning the loss of its mayor and the campaign to keep production of the Jeep Wrangler in the Ohio city has lost a champion after Michael Collins suffered a heart attack behind the wheel recently. Born, raised and educated in Toledo, Collins was a Marine Corps veteran and a city councilor. He was elected mayor in 2013 and assumed office on January 2, 2014, a little over a year ago. He was driving an SUV provided by the city in a snow storm on February 1 of this year when he suffered a heart attack and crashed into a utility pole. He remained in critical condition for days until he was taken off artificial life-support. During his relatively short term in office, Collins became an outspoken and energetic advocate of keeping the Jeep plant in Toledo, where it has been assembled for decades. The next-generation Wrangler is set to switch to aluminum construction, which could lead to moving its production to another location, but Collins (alongside Governor John Kasich and others) had worked hard to convince FCA US to keep it in town. Whether his efforts will prove successful remains to be seen, but our hearts go out to his friends, family and constituents. Michael is survived by his wife Sandy, three daughters and eight grandchildren. He was 70 years old.

Chrysler highlights Mopar lineup for SEMA

Wed, 30 Oct 2013

SEMA is all about aftermarket parts, and in Auburn Hills that all comes down to one name: Mopar. After having previewed its lineup for this year's Vegas tuner expo earlier this month, Chrysler has now revealed what may not quite be its full dossier of modified show cars, but a good portion of them.
All told Mopar is preparing 20 vehicles for display at SEMA this year. Among them you'll find the Ram Sun Chaser, a 1500 Quad Cab show truck kitted out in two-tone orange and black paint, a roof rack for surfboards, onboard shower and convertible tailgate. The white Fiat 500L is called the Adventurer and is modified for a more rugged look that could hint at the upcoming crossover version. The Jeep Cherokee Trail Carver upgrades on the Trailhawk package with everything from roof basket to rock rails. To counterbalance the off-roaders, there's also a modified Chrysler 300S with a deep black paint job, special grille, Varvatos-edition wheels and more.
All four concepts details so far have Katzkin interiors as well, and there's also an unspecified Dodge Durango with a storm-trooper look in the gallery above. But for more details on what Mopar has installed on the Ram, 500L, Cherokee and 300, you'll want to delve into the press release below.

Jeepster name may be used for Fiat-based baby Jeep

Tue, 17 Dec 2013

In 1948, Willys-Overland, the forbearers of Jeep, built a vehicle called the Jeepster. It was a funky little thing, designed as a mix of the more rugged Jeeps that came before with what was then a modern car, which arguably makes it the world's first crossover. The name was later revived from 1966 to 1972, which means for Jeep enthusiasts, it has some history.
Now, the modern Jeep brand may revive the Jeepster name for a new product, likely based on Fiat bones, that will slot in at the bottom of the brand's range underneath the soon-to-depart Compass and Patriot. The report comes from Australia's Drive, which cites a dealer source that has seen the vehicle.
That same dealer confirmed there is a link between the Jeepster and the rumored Fiat 500X, and that the former will be available in both front and all-wheel-drive variants. The source also claims both gas and diesel engines will be available, although as this is an Aussie site, we shouldn't take that to mean we'll get a diesel Jeepster in the US.
