Classic 1974 Jeep CJ5 Renegade

AMC 304 V8 - 3 Speed - Original Engine and Transmission
This is a 3 day auction and will end soon.

This Jeep is a daily driver and is very dependable, turns heads everywhere I go and is fun and easy to drive.  I keep it indoors when not being driven and take good care of it.  I love this Jeep and I'm only selling it because we need the money to grow our business and that's a priority right now.

I have listed it for sale locally in Denison, Texas and I reserve the right to end the auction early if sold.

Details:
All metal body - Very Solid 
Full Roll Cage
This Jeep was not and is not rusted (only surface on suspension parts, etc.. where fresh paint may have chipped off while being driven - Very common for a daily driver.

During the restoration, both front fenders, hood and grille were replaced with brand new Factory Replacement Parts from AMD Metal for the following body parts:

New Left and Right Fenders
New Grille
New Hood
These body parts are new and straight, factory coated to prevent corrosion or rust and looks great.

Front Floor Pans are original and have not been patched.  
They are not rusted and are in great shape.
Rear Floor pans are also in good shape, however there are small imperfections (dents - dings) in the metal where it looks like they carried something in the back.  They still look great and are solid.

New Parts:
Brand New Holley 650 CFM - Electric Choke
New Plugs and High Voltage Wires
New High Voltage Coil
New Valve Covers
New Alternator and belt
New Radiator  (Runs cool, does not overheat)

Engine:
Original AMC 304 V8
Starts very very easy.
Idles great
Runs great - lots of power.
AMC 304 Long Tube Headers with Jeep CJ5 Side Exhaust.  Looks Great and Sounds Amazing.  These were extremely popular back in the 70's and I know why.

Transmission: Factory 3-Speed Manual.  Shifts perfect and easy.  Clutch works great.  No problems.

Transfer Case:  4x4 works good.  The transfer case shifts into HIGH and LOW with ease.

Electrical: 
Headlights work (high and low beam)  
Tail lights and brake lights work.  New LED tail/brake lights - Very bright and safe.
All turn signals work.
Hazard lights work
Wipers work (2 speed)  New Wiper Motor and wiper transmission linkage.
New exterior lights (park lights, turn signals, side markers)
Horn works

New Windshield and rubber

New AM/FM Radio with dash mounted speaker (Radio works good)

Factory OEM Jeep Steel Wheels - Powder coated White.
4 Factory hub caps in great condition (rare and hard to find in this shape)
New BFG All Terrain Tires
Comes with 5th Powder Coated Steel Wheel and extra hub cap if you want it for a rear mounted spare.

New Racing Seats - very comfortable and safe.
New Seat Belts

The front suspension was recently aligned and this Jeep goes very straight down the road.  Rare for a CJ5 with such a short wheel base.

New Heavy Duty Front Bumper

New Brake Master Cylinder

New VERY Heavy Duty Custom Rear Bumper with receiver (not yet installed) Comes with Jeep.

New Rear Drive Shaft and U-Joints - I had a heavy duty drive shaft specially built by a drive shaft shop and machinist.  Has been balanced and works great.

Ammo Box Center Console (Works great)

New 8000lb Warn Winch (works great and has remote)

New Orange Paint - Old paint taken down to metal, etch primed then sealed and painted right

I used Armor Liner that was tinted Orange like body color for Roll Cage, Dash and firewall 
(Tough as nails and will not rust)
Black Armor Liner on floor pans.

4 New Fender Flares

What else?

This Jeep comes with a CJ5 Renegade Decal / Stripe Kit that is correct for 1974.
I have a factory Jeep tailgate that is sandblasted and ready to be installed to fill the hole in the back.
I have a new CJ5 (replacement) heater motor and switch that needs to be bolted up to the firewall.
The newly installed carburetor needs to be tuned jetted down 1-2 sizes to run perfect.  It runs great as it is and I drive it every day, and I would drive it across country like it is, but it needs to be tuned.  There is a very slight lag when you barley press on accelerator.  If you press down about 1/4 to 1/2 or all the way down....it has TONS of power and get's on it great, just hesitates under very slight acceleration.  It's just a brand new carb and needs to be tuned.
Needs a fuel sending unit installed.

The Speedo is not accurate and the fuel gage does not work (needs a sending unit).
I like using my Iphone for the speedometer (downloaded a GPS speedometer App for Free) and stuck it to windshield with Velcro - very accurate and comes with NAVIGATION.

As the photos will show, I have turned the steering wheel around in order to give me more room, however I do have a very nice (flat) custom wood grain steering wheel that will go with the Jeep if you prefer to have that one instead.   Personally, I like the one that's on it.

This Jeep is ready for Car Shows, the Trail or your daily commute to work.

It's located in Denison, Tx and can be driven and inspected anytime.

I have a clear Texas Title in my name and it currently registered, inspected and insured in Texas.
This is not a quick flip vehicle, it's a great Jeep and I hate to see it go.

Thank You for you interest.

YouTube tallies votes for this year's top five Super Bowl spots [w/video]

Tue, 19 Feb 2013

When we asked you to tell us which of this year's 16 car-themed Super Bowl commercials you liked best, you chose the Farmer commercial from Chrysler Group, advertising the Ram trucks, over Audi's Prom commercial in second place. Turns out the voters in YouTube's Ad Blitz poll agreed, voting the same commercial to the number one spot from among the field commercials in every category.
From there, however, they went in a totally different direction. Budweiser's The Clydesdales spot came second, Samsung's The Next Big Thing took third. The Jeep Whole Again ad scored fourth in the YouTube poll, fifth in our poll of auto commercials, and the Hyundai Team spot got fifth from the YouTubers, but ninth in our poll.
The voting results don't match up with the viewing numbers, though - while Farmer has more than 13 million views, The Next Big Thing is well beyond 21 million. You can read the press release below and see all five spots, lined up for you, one more time.

Jeep sets all-time sales record in 2012

Wed, 09 Jan 2013

Last year was good to Jeep. Chrysler has announced its trail-rated brand set an all-time global sales record in 2012 by moving 701,626 units. That number easily surpasses the previous record set in 1999 when Jeep sold 675,494 models. All told, the brand saw a 19-percent sales increase worldwide over 2011, and much of that swell can be traced directly to the Wrangler. While the Grand Cherokee led Jeep sales, the Wrangler posted record numbers both globally and within the US, moving 194,142 and 141,669 units in each market, respectively.
Meanwhile, the Compass beat its previous global sales record with 103,321 units rolling off of dealer lots. In the US, Jeep sold 62,010 Patriot units, breaking that model's previous record as well. Jeep's impressive performance in 2012 marks the second year in a row the brand has seen double-digit percentage sales increases. Check out the full press release below.

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.
