1974 JEEP CJ5

4WD MANUAL TRANS

As pictured, 1974 JEEP CJ5.  Prior owner worked on this quite a while before throwing in the towel.  In my opinion, the hard work's been done.  Frame has been boxed.  Jeep has been lifted.  New gas tank. New shocks. New brakes. Diamond plate. Some new wiring. It's got the in-line 6 (232 or 258) with a tree speed transmission.  The drivetrain appears to be stock.  The engine runs good and the jeep does run, drive and stop. However, it needs some finishing to be road ready. 

Since the jeep needs some work. I am going to sell this as a project vehicle. Furthermore the jeep has been off the road for over 10 years being restored.  I have only driven the jeep very short distances.  The jeep needs an alternator (frozen) and belt installed before it can be driven any distance.  Some of the lights work some don't. The steering column has play in it.  The brakes are newer but I don't think the previous owner bled them correctly, they need to be pumped to build pressure. No leaks noted.  Gas tank needs overflow tubes.  Needs wiper work. The chassis work looks real good.  The previous owner riveted the diamond plate to the body.  He stated it was rusted, but had some body work that was less than professional.   True mileage unknown, cars over 10 years old are exempt from mileage disclosure in Wisconsin.  Don't miss your chance to get this jeep project that is nearly done!Please note, paypal deposit payment is due 24 hours after auction end and read the terms before bidding.

Auto critic calls out Corvette, Mustang and Cherokee faithful

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

Most automotive purists fear change, but not without reason. Change, after all, did kill big-block V8s, along with most station wagons and manual transmissions. But change has also brought with it far more performance, safety and fuel economy - not to mention ridding the world of shag carpet interiors, bias-ply tires and those horrible motorized seatbelts of the early '90s.
By this time next year, the Chevy Corvette, Jeep Cherokee and next-generation Ford Mustang will all be on sale and will all, in some way, have angered or offended purists. To those critics, Mark Phelan of the Detroit Free Press is preemptively telling them to stop complaining - at least until they've all been driven. From the Corvette's square taillights and the Cherokee's radical nose to whatever pony car purists will harp on the 2015 Mustang for, Phelan's column points out the positives of automotive evolution and the negatives of staying the course for too long. That's fair enough, but do you think Phelan is on point, or all wet? Head on over to the Detroit Free Press to read his words, then have your say in Comments.

SEMA crowns Mustang, FR-S as this year's hottest cars in the building

Wed, 31 Oct 2012

After wrapping up the first day of the 2012 SEMA Show, organizers handed out awards for some of the trendiest vehicles on display. Since the whole point of SEMA is to show off new products available in the aftermarket world for use in cars, trucks and SUVs, each year, the show distinguishes the most popular vehicle in various segments. Not surprisingly, this year's Hottest Car and Hottest Sport Compact are the Ford Mustang and Scion FR-S, respectively, while the Ford F-Series brought home the Hottest Truck and the Jeep Wrangler was named the Hottest 4x4-SUV.
More than 2,000 companies are at this year's show, and the display booths represents a "vote" for each car to determing the trendiest vehicles in each of the four categories. It isn't clear if these awards also take cars brought by OEMs into account, but the Mustang and FR-S were definitely well represented by both OEM and aftermarket show versions.
As usual, the OEMs showed up in force at the this year's SEMA Show exhibiting a variety of cars ranging from production-intent cars like the beastly Ford Mustang Cobra Jet to much flashier rides like Scion's Carbon Stealth FR-S.

Jeep Wrangler gets the wide-track treatment

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

When we read the tip about a Gulf-state diplomat in Rabat, Morocco who had supposedly "merged two Jeep Wranglers," we figured the two off-roaders were somehow linked front-to-back. Oh no. As you can see in the image above, taken from video of that vehicle actually traveling down the road and needing more than one lane to do it, the two Jeeps were put together side-by-side.
The seriously widebody truck is said to have six wheels, one at each corner and two in the middle. That's about all anyone seems to know about it at the moment, and that's probably enough - in these situations you know better than to ask why, just watch the video below.
