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.

Jeep owner inadvertently receives 2018 Wrangler hood from scrapyard

Fri, Oct 14 2016

After an apparent mix-up, FCA may be looking for a new scrapyard to which to send prototype parts. JLWranglerForums.com member Redrockjk recently purchased a used Wrangler hood from a yard near the FCA proving grounds. When he ordered it, he thought it was from a 2014 model, and while it looked very similar to his current hood, after installing he discovered something unusual. It was too long. From what we can see in the photos from JLWranglerForums.com, the leading edge of the hood sticks out roughly two inches from the top of the Wrangler's grille. The greater length is also clear when the hood is placed next to its likely predecessor. The receivers for the exposed latches are also too far forward to be used on a current Wrangler. Redrockjk also said there wasn't a VIN or a part number anywhere on the hood. As if those details weren't a big enough red flag, Redrockjk reported that the used parts supplier contacted him to ask for the hood back. We reached out to Jeep to see if they could confirm if this is a hood for the next-generation Wrangler. Unsurprisingly, the company had no comment at this time. Considering the details, and the proximity of the scrapyard to an FCA proving ground, there's a better than zero chance this is from a pre-production 2018 Wrangler sent to the yard to be scrapped. No word on whether the hood was aluminum, as has been rumored. Except for the length, the part fits pretty well on the current model. The hood vents present are also similar to those found on some current models. It's one more piece of evidence that the next Wrangler won't stray far from a proven formula.

2014 Jeep Cherokee

Thu, 19 Sep 2013

The Cherokee Is Dead. Long Live The Cherokee.
There are three sentences that, for this reviewer, define what needs to be conveyed about the 2014 Jeep Cherokee. The first: it is very good.
Jeep spent 27 years building the Cherokee and its brand, from 1974 to 2001. Twelve years ago, the Cherokee nameplate rolled away into the distant hills and retirement, at least here in the NAFTA colonies, and it was replaced by a loaded word we knew as "Liberty."

Jeep Cherokee faces on-sale delay

Sat, 23 Mar 2013

A report in The Wall Street Journal looks at some of the obstacles to the 2014 Jeep Cherokee that go beyond its mootable yet "very contemporary" looks, almost all of them based on Fiat's financial position. Starting with that sheetmetal, in defense of it SRT president Ralph Gilles and Jeep design head Mark Allen said they wanted to "make sure the design still looks modern five years from now."
The WSJ piece doesn't cite longevity as a factor, instead saying that its features originated in a design for an Alfa Romeo, the transformation into a Jeep design meant allowing Chrysler get it to market more quickly and save "hundreds of millions of dollars" in engineering.
The need for Fiat to save money while it weathers the European situation has cut budgets for development, engineering and the pace of retooling the Toledo, Ohio plant to build the Cherokee. In a familiar case of snowballing at work, among the effects will be pushing back the Cherokee's volume sales date and delaying updates to some of Chrysler's other products.
