1985 Jeep CJ7 Renegade in amazing shape. I was given this Jeep for my 40th B-Day and it looked nothing like the Jeep it is today. I really enjoyed working on it and turning it into the head-turner it is. One of the main issues I have with this Jeep is when people are always stopping me to ask questions and give me their information for when I am ready to sell! 

My son is turning 16 soon and he wants to build his own Jeep with the old man. Unfortunately there is not enough room for two Jeeps so I am going to build one with him but not a CJ. Something with the wider wheel base so I'm not worried all the time about him tipping it. So its time to send this beauty to her next home. She runs great, pump the peddle twice and start her up - let her idle for 30 seconds and you are good to go! She never lets me down. Runs straight and true and wonderful at high speeds. 

Engine: This engine has roughly 80,000 miles on it. It was installed by the previous owner and is from a 1987 Wrangler. 

History - I bought this Jeep from South Carolina and had it shipped up here. It was newly painted but needed work. The Jeep is Rhino lined and there is no rust on the body - I honestly hardly drove the Jeep. She is garage kept and was only driven on nice days with no top or doors. I put around 3000 miles on it in 5 years. I never had the hard top or doors on the Jeep when I took her out. She only saw rain one time in my possession and it was a 5 minute sun shower. There are so many things new on this Jeep it would probably be easier to list what I did not replace but here we go:

Engine: Aluminum Valve Cover - Wires - Distributor - Weber Carburetor - Fuel Pump, Filter and Pressure Regulator with gauge - Hoses and wires galore - Power Brake Booster (same one that was used in Corvettes) - All new brakes - Horn 

Interior: New Carpet - Besttop Seats (Front and Rear Folding Seat (which can be easily removed when needed)) - Seat Mounts - Tuffy Lockable 12.5 inch Center Console with Stereo Compartment - All dashboard knobs, motors, dash lights/indicators and cables - New Speedometer (which is more accurate) - Chrome handle - Chrome glove box - Chrome dash panel - New Black Dash Pad - Grant steering wheel and turn signal lever- Seat belts (Front and Rear) - Roll bar pad - Front speakers and Rear Speakers (Attached to roll bar - see pictures) - Sony CD Player with Blue Tooth and Remote Control - Floor Mats - Cigarette Lighter - Shifter knobs - Rear view mirror - Stainless door guards - Door interior locks - Hard Top rear window pistons

Exterior: New Fuel tank and fuel sending unit - New Stainless mirrors - Front stainless bumper, Rear stainless bumper with hitch receiver (I never towed anything), Stainless Side Step bars - Fuel line - Plastic Jeep front frame cover (piece in front of the grill between the Jeep and bumper) - CJ and JEEP logo's - Antenna - Windshield wipers - Chrome/Stainless hinges and hood air intake vent as well as hood latches and various footman's - Sylvania Headlights - Chrome Headlight bezels and parking lights bezels/bulbs - New side lights - Chrome Wheel caps

Comes with:
New Bikini Top
Two used Jeep half doors (Yellow - I wanted to paint them white and use them instead of full doors) You can then buy a soft top to match which is a nice look for a CJ7. 
Jeep Cloth Cover with Bag 
Outside door locks (I never got around to replacing them)
New oil filter
Jeep Clock
Jeep Tachometer (I wanted to install these but never got around to it. Fun Saturday project to make the Jeep look more like a Laredo. 

What she still needs:
Since I never used the hard doors I never replaced the rubber gaskets on the doors or windows. I would do that if you plan to use them. You also have to replace the door locks which I included with the Jeep. The rear hard top lock needs to be replaced as this one does not have a key. $15 dollar item I just didn't get to it because I never lock the Jeep. Would take 10 minutes to swap out. 

Please feel free to email me or call me with any questions (973) 333-1283  - If you are local I encourage you to come by and take her for a drive. You won't be sorry!

Chrysler recalling over 200k vehicles across its brands

Wed, 10 Apr 2013

With more than 200,000 units across six separate recalls and almost all of its brands, it appears that Chrysler has officially jumped headfirst into the recall pool this month. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued three official recalls for the automaker, and The Detroit News is reporting that the automaker itself has announced three more.
The biggest of the recalls applies to about 120,000 Dodge Charger, Dodge Challenger and Chrysler 300 models for 2011 and 2012 due to faulty wiring harnesses for the seat-mounted side airbags, which could lead to these airbags not deploying in the event of a crash. A little more than 60,000 two-wheel-drive versions of the 2007-2008 Dodge Nitro and 2008 Jeep Liberty SUVs are being recalled due to a heat shield that could cause the driveshaft to break, which if that isn't bad on its own, could then hit underneath where the airbag sensor is mounted, causing the airbags to deploy. Wrapping up NHTSA's recall notices, about 20,000 Jeep Patriot and Jeep Compass models for 2012 are also being recalled due to a problem with the fuel tank transfer tube that could lead to the vehicle stalling. The LX car recall campaign is going into effect this month, while the other two will start next month - all three notices are posted below.
In addition to the official NHTSA recalls, The Detroit News is also reporting that Chrysler is recalling more than 16,000 Ram trucks and a small number of Dodge Dart sedans. Around 6,500 2013 Ram 1500 trucks will be recalled due to an improper adjustment of the parking brake cable from the factory, while 7,000 Cummins-powered 2013 Ram Heavy Duty trucks are being recalled due to an engine cover that does not have as much heat resistance as it is supposed to. Finally, a total of 46 Dodge Dart sedans are being recalled due to a problem with the brake calipers and/or parking brake.

Feds fretting over remote hack of Jeep Cherokee

Fri, Jul 24 2015

A cyber-security gap that allowed for the remote hacking of a Jeep Cherokee has federal officials concerned. An associate administrator with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said Thursday that news of the breach conducted by researchers Chris Valasek and Charlie Miller had "floated around the entire federal government." "The Homeland Security folks sent out broadcasts that, 'Here's an issue that needs to be addressed,'" said Nathaniel Beuse, an associate administrator with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Valasek and Miller commandeered remote control of the Cherokee through a security flaw in the cellular connection to the car's Uconnect infotainment system. From his Pittsburgh home, Valasek manipulated critical safety inputs, such as transmission function, on Miller's Jeep as he drove along a highway near St. Louis, MO. The scope of the remote breach is believed to be the first of its kind. The prominent cyber-security researchers needed no prior access to the vehicle to perform the hack, and the scope of the remote breach is believed to be the first of its kind. A NHTSA spokesperson said the agency's cyber-security staff members are "putting their expertise to work assessing this threat and the response, and we will take action if we determine it's necessary to protect safety." A Homeland Security spokesperson referred questions about the hack to Chrysler. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles has already been the subject of a federal hearing this month, in which officials scrutinized whether the company had adequately fixed recalled vehicles and repeatedly failed to notify the government about defects. But cyber-security concerns are a new and different species for the regulatory agency. Only hours before the Jeep hack was announced by Wired magazine earlier this week, NHTSA administrator Dr. Mark Rosekind said hacking vulnerabilities were a threat to privacy, safety, and the public's trust with new connected and autonomous technologies that allow vehicles to communicate. NHTSA outlined its response to the cyber-security challenges facing the industry in a report issued Tuesday. In it, the agency summarized its best practices for thwarting attacks and said it will analyze possible real-time infiltration responses. But the agency's ability to handle hackers may only go so far.

Sunday Drive: Classic American nameplates and one exciting new German

Sun, Mar 25 2018

Our look back at last week's biggest automotive stories focuses first on the Jeep Wagoneer, an unequivocal American classic. Not only did the Wagoneer play a pivotal role in kicking off America's current love affair with the sport utility vehicle, it legitimized the Jeep brand in the mind of consumers looking not just for something to ably take them off the beaten path, but to do so in comfort, with the entire family along for the ride. So it comes as little surprise that Jeep decided to take one vintage Wagoneer, modernize it with a 5.7-liter Hemi V8 engine, and put the thing on display as part of its annual Moab Easter Jeep Safari. We're in love. Our next two stories focus on Cadillac. First up is news that the striking Escala Concept is headed for production in 2021 to serve as the brand's flagship luxury sedan. The second story involves Caddy's current top rung, the CT6, which gets a new twin-turbo V8 engine as part of its V-Sport package. And finally, we round out this look at last week's headlines with the 2019 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe and Cabriolet. We're mighty keen to try out Benz's new AMG-fettered turbocharged inline-six engine, and the C Coupe looks like a fine point of entry. As always stay tuned to Autoblog this week for all the latest automotive news. Jeep delivers basketful of concepts for the Moab Easter Jeep Safari Cadillac's striking Escala concept is reportedly headed for production Cadillac CT6 V-Sport wants to take prisoners with 550-hp 4.2L TT V8 2019 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe and Cabriolet revealed ahead of New York
