1983 Jeep Cj7 With Chevy 350 on 2040-cars
Lake Orion, Michigan, United States
|
Nothing says "I'll go anywhere" quite like a Jeep CJ7 especially one with substantial upgrades under the skin. More power more suspension and a full cosmetic makeover make this 1983 Jeep CJ7 the ultimate way to get noticed. It might just be the most recognizable automobile in the entire world. It has been on every continent and crossed the most forbidding land in the world. Even more than 40 years after it arrived on the scene the evergreen Jeep kept its rugged good looks. Someone has kept up with this one restoring it as-needed over the course of its three decades. CJ7s were notorious for rusting particularly around the rear of the body but this one was spared that fate thanks to a lifetime someplace warm and amazingly it's never needed a full restoration. The black paint isn't perfect but it is nice enough that you'll stand out at the local cruise and definitely think twice about plunging into the brush with it and you'll definitely have the hardware to get wherever you need to go. Accessories include chrome bumpers and grille tubular steps plus a khaki soft top with soft doors and matching bimini top. WWII GIs would have killed for an interior like this in their Jeeps but it remains simple and durable in the best off-roading tradition. New black bucket seats look expensive and upscale gripping you tightly when you're rocking around in the dirt. The dash has been painted in the same black paint as the body with all the original gauges reinstalled so it has a custom look that's all Jeep. Also the interior has been completely Rhino lined to stand up to any amount of dirt that you can throw at it. Black rubber mats and matching roll bar padding give it a go-anywhere feel and there's no denying that it's still basic and rugged. The entire condition suggests it's been well maintained. Mechanically this Jeep is virtually invincible. Many Jeepers prefer an engine swap and this one has it. It has avery smooth torquey Edelbrock Chevy 350. The engine bay is tidy and has not been submerged or driven in the really harsh environments. There are plenty of signs that someone loved this CJ. A 1-inch body lift and gives the suspension a little extra clearance when it's needed. The 4-speed manual transmission shifts smooth with a nice stiff clutch. Newer shocks and a true dual side exhaust ensure reliability and comfort anywhere you go. Handsome 15-inch aluminum wheels wear big 33x12.50-15 off-road tires that look so cool that you should keep them even if you never plan on going off the pavement. If you like playing in the dirt this CJ7 is the right tool for the job. And even if you don't it has the right look and plenty of comfort to drive every day.

2018 Jeep Wrangler spy shots give us best look yet
Wed, May 18 2016A couple weeks ago, we got a fairly comprehensive set of 2018 Jeep Wrangler spy shots. For fans of the JK-series Jeeps, it was all good news: the basic Wrangler Unlimited formula and shape is present and accounted for, meaning this new Wrangler will be an evolution of the current SUV, rather than a ground-up reimagining. The new shots give us some more detail than we had previously, and let us point out some JL Wrangler features that reaffirm FCA's conservative approach. First of all, the heavy camouflage doesn't manage to fully cover the exposed door hinges, just like in the current model, so those are a safe bet for the production version. The raked-back windshield might lose its ability to fold down, we've heard. The JL remains a body-on-frame truck with a solid front axle, evidenced by the front diff peeking out and the radius arms connected to them. The large exterior mirrors also appear to be carryover items, and the taillights look indistinguishable from the current JK. We expect the front fascia to remain clearly recognizable as a Wrangler, but don't be surprised if the headlight and sidemarkers incorporate some LED elements as a nod to current trends. Remember, the JL will spawn a pickup version, and will slim down for better fuel economy with some aluminum elements, likely incorporated in the body. We expect the Pentastar V6 to carry over, but be joined by a diesel and a mild hybrid at some point in the future. It'll be built alongside its JK predecessor for a short time in Toledo, Ohio.

NHTSA investigating why Jeep recall fix is taking so long
Mon, 07 Jul 2014Jeep's saga with the National Traffic Safety Administration and the voluntary campaign to repair 1.56 million vehicles for allegedly unsafe trailer hitches, is getting yet another chapter. The controversy appeared to finally be over in January when the automaker found a supplier for the replacement parts. Nothing is ever that easy, though, and the government regulator is now requesting documents from the company to clarify why the repairs are taking so long to begin.
Jeep parent company Chrysler has until July 16 to submit documents and answers to NHTSA explaining the situation. The regulator claims that despite its compromise to inspect and repair the models with improper hitches in June 2013, Chrysler didn't find a part supplier until December and didn't order the replacements until January. The government agency believes that the first components weren't manufactured until May of this year and vehicles may not actually be repaired until as late as August. According to the report, if the Chrysler doesn't supply what NHTSA is asking for, the agency could "take additional appropriate action as warranted."
Throughout this entire process, Chrysler has asserted that the vehicles met the applicable crash test standards of the time, and it has kept NHTSA abreast of the repair activity. In a recently released statement it said that the regulator analyzed eight rear impact reconstruction tests and found the replacement hitch to be safe. To keep up with the high demand for replacements, Chrysler is working with multiple suppliers, and they are running three shifts, six days a week to get the parts ready as soon as possible.
