My loss is your gain

 

I’m selling this Jeep which I bought almost 2 years ago as a fun project. I really got into the Wagoneer thing and bought a few other Wagoneers, fixed them up and really had a lot of fun. But, things have changed in my life and I’m moving and getting out of this hobby. So, I got rid of the other Jeeps which were much less of projects. This was the one I poured my heart and soul into and, too bad, it’s still not done.

But, I need to get rid of it.

So, it’s a 1983 Jeep Wagoneer that had a lot of body rust when I got it. Floors were bad too. I’ve fixed all of that, but not professionally. It’s all in good shape now. All the major mechanicals work fine. New brakes, new exhaust, new battery, new spark plug wires and more, I’m sure.

You can see I went for a different look that the traditional Woody. I think it looks kind of mean and 4 wheeler type, but you judge for yourself. I left out the back seat, but I have one for you.
The odometer shows just over 80,000 and I have no reason to doubt, but I can’t verify either. It runs so good, that I think the mileage is right. Very strong.

There are several things that still need to be done, like minor electrical things. Turn signals, dome lights, some switches, power mirrors, etc. I bought a new radio and some friends who know a lot more than I do, tried to install it, but they are stuck. So, it’s all there, plus the old one. Some type of power or ground issue.

Needs a headliner and I have 2 of the cardboard backings that you can use if you get the material.

I have hundreds to thousands of other Jeep parts that I’d like to sell with the Jeep. Some you may need. Window motors, fuses, relays, switches, etc. 2 complete sets of woody trim, which is hard to find and expensive (one set would need some touch up and the other is in really good shape.) Door panels, headliners, gas tank, wheels, etc., etc. If you are a Jeep guy, especially Grand Wagoneers, you will need these or know other guys you can give or sell to.I have many more pics of parts.

And, if you want to take the time to list on EBay or Craig’s List, there is a lot of extra money here. I just need to move on and sell all of this.

Wards names its 2015 10 Best Interiors list

Fri, Apr 17 2015

Wards Automotive has named the winners of its 10 Best Interior awards, covering a wide but affordable array of vehicles. Where last year's list contained two six-figure vehicles, including the $372,800 Rolls-Royce Wraith, this year's is, well, a whole lot more reasonable. The publication lists the Mercedes-Benz C400 at $65,000 (which seems off), making it the most expensive vehicle here. That said, we'd argue that the entire C-Class line deserves to make this year's list, owing to its varied and high-quality selection of materials. The other vehicle to break the $60,000 mark, meanwhile, is the $60,675 Ford F-150 King Ranch, which has 327,000 pounds of leather lining its interior. Only one other German car, the BMW i3, and one other pickup truck, the GMC Canyon, managed to make this year's list. Here's the full list of this year's winners: 2014 BMW i3 ($52,550) 2015 Chrysler 300C Platinum ($51,175) 2015 Ford F-150 King Ranch ($60,675) 2015 GMC Canyon SLT ($40,465) 2015 Honda Fit EX-L ($21,590) 2015 Jeep Renegade Limited ($33,205) 2015 Kia Sedona SXL ($43,295) 2016 Mazda6 Grand Touring ($33,395) 2015 Mercedes C400 ($65,000) 2015 Nissan Murano SL ($41,905) See what we mean about the mainstream vehicles? Not only is there a distinct lack of luxury brands, it's the price of some of the vehicles that surprise. The Honda Fit, Jeep Renegade and Mazda6 are very reasonably priced, especially when you compare Wards price with the starting price. The Renegade Limited starts at less than $25,000, the Mazda at less than $22K and the Fit at under $16,000. Head over to Wards for a more detailed explanation of why each vehicle won.

Marchionne defends FCA recalls, says Wrangler won't be all-aluminum

Fri, May 22 2015

FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne recently received the 2015 Industry Leadership Award from the SAE Foundation. While speaking with the press after the event, the boss discussed his thoughts about some key issues regarding the company's future. One of the big regulatory issues facing FCA at the moment is the upcoming public hearing by the National Highway Traffic Safety into the automaker's handling of 20 recalls. Marchionne has no intention of testifying there, according to The Detroit News. The CEO also thinks that the government regulator is becoming much more aggressive in how it handles safety campaigns, but the Feds aren't necessarily doing a very good job of communicating that. "We need to work with the agency in a very cooperative and open way to make sure that we can meet their requirements for their new stance," he said, according to the newspaper. "We have no option but to comply with their requirements and we will. I have nothing to hide in this process. I just want clear rules." Marchionne also dropped the news that the company has changed its mind about making the next Jeep Wrangler totally from aluminum. "Because of the difference in cost, not just the new material but the actual assembly process, I think we can do almost as well without doing it all-aluminum," he said to The Detroit News. This seemingly opens the door for the model to remain in production in Toledo, OH, but only just a crack. Marchionne says that the new Wrangler would still use a large amount of aluminum, and there are "at least" two sites in contention for the assembly. The company doesn't have too long to make a decision because the model reportedly launches in 2017.

Poor headlights cause 40 cars to miss IIHS Top Safety Pick rating

Mon, Aug 6 2018

Over the past few months, we've noticed a number of cars and SUVs that have come incredibly close to earning one of the IIHS's highest accolades, the Top Safety Pick rating. They have great crash test scores and solid automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning systems. What trips them up is headlights. That got us wondering, how many vehicles are there that are coming up short because they don't have headlights that meet the organization's criteria for an "Acceptable" or "Good" rating. This is a revision made after 2017, a year in which headlights weren't factored in for this specific award. This is also why why some vehicles, such as the Ford F-150, might have had the award last year, but have lost it for this year. We reached out to someone at IIHS to find out. He responded with the following car models. Depending on how you count, a whopping 40 models crash well enough to receive the rating, but don't get it because their headlights are either "Poor" or "Marginal." We say depending on how you count because the IIHS actual counts truck body styles differently, and the Infiniti Q70 is a special case. Apparently the version of the Q70 that has good headlights doesn't have adequate forward collision prevention technology. And the one that has good forward collision tech doesn't have good enough headlights. We've provided the entire list of vehicles below in alphabetical order. Interestingly, it seems the Volkswagen Group is having the most difficulty providing good headlights with its otherwise safe cars. It had the most models on the list at 9 split between Audi and Volkswagen. GM is next in line with 7 models. It is worth noting again that though these vehicles have subpar headlights and don't quite earn Top Safety Pick awards, that doesn't mean they're unsafe. They all score well enough in crash testing and forward collision prevention that they would get the coveted award if the lights were better.
