I have a really neat, rare '84 Cherokee up for sale here. Extensive engine / driveline work, still has the original blue plates and original title (I purchased it from the original owner). It was parked about 15yrs ago, and started up every few years. I went through the electrical and vacuum system and got it running (lots of repaired vac lines, new ignition etc). It really moves when it starts building boost (around 5psi with the current pulleys). The body is actually in very good shape, with the exception of the roof, which had wet leaves sitting on it and caused it to rust through in various places around the roof rack mounting holes. It's temporarily sealed up so rain water doesn't get inside (not perfect, as rain water does still get in.....). The roof could be just spot patched or fully replaced, I have a full replacement roof that comes with it for either route.

ENGINE:
• 2.8l with a Fageol Supercharger kit (BAR/smog legal) (fageolsuperchargers.com)
• Engine professionally rebuilt by Salinas 4x4
• Ported/ polished heads
• Forged pistons with zero-gap piston rings
• Blower cam
• Roller rockers
• Engine is fully balanced
• High volume oil pump, remote mount oil filter and remote cooler
• Crank is cross-drilled and chamfered
• 2.5" turbo exhaust system
• Torqeflite trans has only 20k miles on professional overhaul and includes Transgo race-level valve body (nice firm shifts; in 4low, it will chirp the tires into all gears)
• 2" receiver hitch

TO DO:
• Needs a speedo cable, and the gauges are out because of that. Heater works fine, stereo has been removed, but I have one you can put back in.
• Roof repair (unless I get really REALLY bored and do it myself....but then the price will go up...)
• It does have a BAR label on the door frame, and the computer is pre-check engine light, so all it really has to pass for CA Smog is the tailpipe emissions. Still has all necessary equipment (catalytic converter, EGR, etc) Fully legal swap as explained in the Fageol paperwork.
• VIDEO!! You may have to copy paste the link as eBay doesn't let you put in links like they used to. This is a cold start, you can hear the idle is on the fast idle cam. (No smoke, the tailpipe just has moisture coming out from it warming up.) s800.photobucket.com/user/yellowoctupus/media/craigslist/M4V02347.mp4.html


Item Condition Key

  • New: New with opened/unopened original box or New without original box.
  • Mint: As good as new but delicately used.
  • Excellent: Very nearly mint condition, encountered some use.
  • Very Good: Limited flaws, working condition
  • Good: Some wear, yet still very usable will not pass as new. Often just well broke-in.
  • Fair: Significant wear, some imperfections, functional and useable. I rarely sell items in this condition.

Motor Vehicles

  • Please understand when bidding on an item, especially used snowmobiles, motorcycles, mini bikes, go carts, cars and trucks, that I occasionally have for sale that you are given the full auction period to come out and look the unit over before making a decision to bid or not. Once you have made that decision (to bid), it is a bid to own, not the right or option to “kick tires and make offers”. All sales come without warranties. I do my best to describe all my auctions as best as I can and I do so cautiously to avoid potential problems.

Bidding

  • Believe it or not there are some people out there bidding on auctions without any intent of following through with their legal obligation of payment. This as you might guess is a waste of my time and screws other legitimate bidders out of a legitimate auction. This also put a financial burden on the seller for fees not collected through normal payment. I will, on or immediately after deadline for payment lodge a dispute for payment with eBay.
  • Because of the above I will reserve the right to accept or decline bids from anyone with a rating of 5 or less without prior agreement. This will include two ways, other than eBay, to contact you directly.
  • Some of my items on eBay are also offered for sale locally. Once there is a bid on eBay however, I will not accept local offers. If you are interested in the item for sale, put in a bid early to make sure it doesn't disappear!

Shipping

  • I will normally ship your order within 3 business days.
  • I will gladly combine shipping.
  • No other charges for handling unless stated in auction. (Engine crating, etc)
  • Shipping calculator is for an estimate only as lately I have seen it give both incredibly high and low calculations (as well as very accurate).
  • I will make every attempt to fit your item into a USPS flat rate priority box. This alleviates most shipping cost problems.
  • Flat rate shipping charges (when offered) apply to the continental US only, but once again, I will only charge actual shipping to HI & AK.
  • There is no charge for local pick up.
  • International Shipping - The shipping and handling fee for this item (if international shipping is offered) is displayed under the eBay Shipping and Payment tab above. Please Note: Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyers responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to buying. We do not mark merchandise values below value or mark items as "gifts" - US and International government regulations prohibit such behavior.

Payment

  • Payment can be made through PayPal. For other payment options please contact me directly. Cash is always accepted at pick up.
  • Funding your PayPal purchase with monies from a bank account will be held by Paypal / eBay for four business days. This is a PayPal / eBay policy.
  • Payment must be received in US funds within 7 days or item will be re-listed and proper feed back left.

Returns & Help

  • NO RETURNS unless I sent you the incorrect parts.
  • I describe everything I'm selling to the best of my knowledge, if I do not know the condition of something (ie, electronics) I will be the first to tell you that fact.
  • Please ask for additional pictures, and ask specifics about the auction before it's over. It is the buyer's responsibility to ask questions.
  • Remember...unless I specify the auction part is new....these parts are USED. This means not new. I know this may sound obvious, but I'm still amazed when there's some old dirty looking part up for sale and people complain because they get an old dirty part!
  • If something is damaged in transit, you can make your claim off the USPS insurance tag. If you did not request/ pay for insurance, that is not my problem. It is very cheap ($2/$3) for the coverage that is given.
  • Please ask any question before bidding. Check my feedback. I'm not looking to give or receive problems. Neither you nor I want any surprises.
  • Please contact me with any questions by using the "Ask a question" button in the listing.

Feedback

  • I will, upon receiving feedback, leave feedback. I do this with the hopes of rectifying any problem.
  • Please understand leaving feedback before allowing me to fix a problem will not motivate me to fix that problem.
  • Please contact me with any questions by using the "Ask a question" link near the bottom of the listing.
Thanks so much and good luck bidding!!!

2018 Jeep Wrangler might get power sliding roof panels

Wed, Apr 19 2017

A user at JL Wrangler Forums snapped a few photos of a prototype 2018 Wrangler driving around, and one of the shots revealed some interesting switchgear. On the ceiling are a couple of handles that further confirm it will still have a multi-piece removable roof, something already expected when images of the truck leaked out. Just ahead of those handles is a binnacle of switches with no clear explanation for their existence. The folks at JL Wrangler Forums believe they have the answer. They suspect that the controls are for a Jeep Renegade-style My Sky roof. In case you forgot, the Renegade's My Sky roof is a cross between a sunroof and the Wrangler's removable roof. One of the panels can slide back like a sunroof, or it and a second panel can be pulled out entirely. The forum members believe the large center button and smaller buttons ahead of it are controls for sliding back either or both front roof panels. Of course the roof panels will still be removable, too. They also cite anonymous sources that say the forum's speculation is on the right track. A few years ago, rumors of a power top were circulating, too. We can certainly see this as a possibility. It would offer Wrangler owners the option of some open-air fun without requiring the unfastening of multiple latches and stowage of large roof panels. Although it would likely add plenty of cost, that won't be much of an issue for Jeep. It's already possible to spend remarkable amounts of money in heavily accessorized Wranglers, and Jeep doesn't have trouble getting them sold. We're still not completely convinced, though. It's also possible we could be looking at switchgear for overhead lights or other interior features, maybe even storage for sunglasses. We just can't be positive without getting a closer look at the switches. Also, there's at least one reason Jeep might want to avoid a feature like this. Power sliding top panels could add weight. Now Jeeps aren't amazing performers, save for the SRT and Trackhawk Grand Cherokees, so speed won't be an issue, but if the weight goes into the top panels, it could make top removal more difficult thanks to heavier components. We'll have to wait to find out for sure. Related Video:

Stellantis expects to hit emissions target without Tesla's help

Tue, May 4 2021

Franco-Italian carmaker Stellantis expects to achieve its European carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions targets this year without environmental credits bought from Tesla, its CEO said in an interview published on Tuesday. Stellantis was formed through the merger of France's PSA and Italy's FCA, which spent about 2 billion euros ($2.40 billion) to buy European and U.S. CO2 credits from electric vehicle maker Tesla over the 2019-2021 period. "With the electrical technology that PSA brought to Stellantis, we will autonomously meet carbon dioxide emission regulations as early as this year," Stellantis boss Carlos Tavares said in the interview with French weekly Le Point. "Thus, we will not need to call on European CO2 credits and FCA will no longer have to pool with Tesla or anyone." California-based Tesla earns credits for exceeding emissions and fuel economy standards and sells them to other automakers that fall short. European regulations require all car manufacturers to reduce CO2 emissions for private vehicles to an average of 95 grams per kilometer this year. A Stellantis spokesman said the company is in discussions with Tesla about the financial implications of the decision to stop the pooling agreement. "As a result of the combination of Groupe PSA and FCA, Stellantis will be in a position to achieve CO2 targets in Europe for 2021 without open passenger car pooling arrangements with other automakers," he added. Tesla's sales of environmental credits to rival automakers helped it to announce slightly better than expected first-quarter revenue this week. The next tightening of European regulations will soon be the subject of proposals from the European Commission. The 2030 target could be lowered to less than 43 grams/km.

470,000 Jeep Liberty, Chrysler 200, and Dodge Avenger models recalled for restraint defect

Sat, Oct 14 2017

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles said on Friday it is recalling 470,000 vehicles worldwide to replace a component that may inhibit deployment of the vehicles' active head restraints in the event of a crash. Around 414,000 of those vehicles were sold in the United States. Apparently, "a component common to the modules of certain vehicles may degrade after extensive vehicle use." The recall covers 2012 Jeep Liberty sport utility vehicles and 2012-13 Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger midsize cars. FCA says a warning light may alert owners to the problem. The Italian-American automaker said it is unaware of any injuries or accidents related to the recall. The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened an investigation into the issue in June. (Reporting by David Shepardson; Editing by Steve Orlofsky) Related Video:
