CLASSIC 1983 CJ-7 JEEP
FANTASTIC CONDITION

We originally bought this Jeep in 2003 from California because of the pristine condition this Jeep was in with absolutely no rust on it. Being in the auto restoration business for over 32 years,
 I could not resist a gem like this. we have restored over 30 Jeeps for clients and  this one is the cleanest  rust free we have seen come through. It was completely stripped to bare metal inside and out before being repainted with House of Kolor Kandy Apple Red.

The inside was sprayed with a matching color of red Reflex spray-on bedliner to give it protection and durability. We put new Hancook tires and rims on it we will update pics !
 along with replacing the OEM plastic valve cover with the aluminum replacement and studs and put a Webber carb. We’ve rebuilt the original T5 Borg-Warner transmission with all new berring's /sync rows and brass, replaced the flywheel, clutch, pressure plate, throw-out berring  z bar /and installed new trans-mounts and stabilizer mounts.

Along with rebuilding all the drive shafts, installing new U-joints,
rear brake job, and all new synthetic oils in the differentials, transmission, and transfer case.
 

The engine is completely tuned up with a new fuel pump –

 

While it was being driven it got frequent oil changes, washed almost weekly, with regular maintenance done without fail.

This was sort of a slow project that my daughter and I did over the years – so it has been done right!  

The only thing that we never got to was going through the dash – it needs a new glove box,dash upgrade  etc. 

seats are nice front and back with new door rubbers including windshield and gate rubbers 

We’re in the process of putting a new exhaust on it just for the heck of replacing it.

along with a new battery

 

You will NOT find an ’83 Jeep like this anywhere else!!! It’s in great condition and still rust free and driving.

The 6 cylinder (original) engine and 4WD make for some serious fun on and off-road.

The hard top is in good condition and was repainted a gunmetal when we got it.

 

Of course, being 30 years old, this Jeep does have some minor wear and tear on it –

but considering the overall condition of this vehicle, this vehicle is in fantastic condition  - as any Jeep lovers can see.

25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango SUVs recalled over brake feel

Mon, 10 Mar 2014

Chrysler has announced that it is recalling over 25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs from several markets over concerns about brake feel under hard braking. The affected models are from the 2012 and 2013 model years, although the actual dates of production aren't available. 18,700 are in the US, while 825 are in Canada, 530 are in Mexico and a further 5,200 outside of North America.
According to a statement, Chrysler was informed of the issue by a component supplier for the Ready Alert Braking system, which primes the brakes in anticipation of an emergency stop. A component in the system was restricting the flow of brake fluid too much.
As Chrysler is quick to point out, the way the brakes functioned was in compliance with regulations and there are no reported cases of drivers losing braking power. Instead, the issue rests with what Chrysler calls a pedal feel that "was not consistent with customer expectations." So it would seem Chrysler is being proactive and fixing a problem not because there's a legal issue at work, but simply because it doesn't feel the way the manufacturer wants it to. Well done.

Autotrader picks best cars for 2015's college grads

Sun, May 31 2015

Summer is here and the school season is winding to a close. That means millions of students will be graduating college and (hopefully) entering the workforce. For many, that will mean buying a new car suited to the new stage in life into which they will now be embarking. That can be a bewildering choice, especially for someone who's never bought a car before. Fortunately, Autotrader has come up with a short list of recommended cars – new and used – which it recommends to the graduating class of 2015. Among the site's top choices are some compelling crossovers and hatchbacks, including the Buick Encore, Chevy Trax, and Jeep Renegade, as well as the Honda Fit, Nissan Versa Note, Mazda3 and Fiat 500. Can't stretch to buying new, or don't see the point? Autotrader has also identified the Toyota Camry, Ford Fusion and even the Lexus IS as smart buys in the certified pre-owned category. "Any time someone goes through a major life change, such as graduating college, they need to determine if their current ride makes sense for their lifestyle, from both a financial and functional perspective," says Autotrader editor Brian Moody. "For example, while that hand-me-down SUV from your parents was nice when you turned 16, you may want to opt for a safer, more fuel-efficient car as you transition into the working world." Autotrader Names 10 Best Cars for Recent College Graduates ATLANTA, May 28, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- For many, graduating college is a milestone like no other – it represents a new chapter, a proud accomplishment and, fortunately or unfortunately, financial independence. Luckily for graduates who are in the market for a new car to suit their post-college lifestyle, Autotrader's expert editors say now is a great time to make a purchase, as dealerships are flush with affordable models that are fun, fuel-efficient and thoughtfully designed.

Chrysler taking big risk snubbing NHTSA

Maker Insists Feds Overstate Risk Of Fires With Grand Cherokee, Liberty Models
It's not often that recall stories make it above the fold, in that old newspaper parlance, but when one shows up as the lead story on the network evening news programs, you know it's something big.
And so it is with Chrysler snubbing its nose at a request by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to recall 2.7 million Jeeps the feds insist are at risk of potentially catastrophic fuel tank fires in a rear-end collision.
