Like any vehicle driven regularly there are a few dings and things that can be replaced, I will list everything you may be concerned about below and I will be critical First, the speedometer and fuel gauge don't currently work, I do have a replacement unit that should work by replacing and mixing current parts. Steel doors and full soft top have never been installed, although I have all the hardware and frame, it will need put together. I also have a family style roll bar from a YJ that needs painted and a full fiberglass hard top with a sun roof and lift gate that needs a little repair and paint. I will throw these in at the right price. A small crack is about to form in the drivers seat and a Levi's button is missing. There are a few chips in the paint from interstate driving and a nice sized scratch in the drivers side rocker panel (photo included). Emergency brake has never been hooked up and I've not taken the time to clean up the wiring under the hood so one may want to organize that. Shocks are older and would make a nicer ride if replaced: myself nor my wife mind the ride so it's not terrible. There is no air conditioning and I have never ran the heater, heater coil was bypassed many years ago. Since the last paint job, I have replaced the following. Professionally Rebuilt Edlebrock 4-barrel carburetor. All lighting and light wiring, Battery,solenoid, alternator and starter are all new along with some electrical wiring. Breather/air intake and valve covers, radiator reservoir are new along with the master cylinder. Drum brakes work great and have been serviced. Windshield is new along with a mirror and an interior matching console is included. This is a nice jeep that you can ride from 10mph to 85mph with no worries. I had a value placed on it from a local vintage dealer and he valued it at $10k as you see photographed, NADA books it at an average value of $8,500 with a 304 or larger motor so you will not be disappointed in what you get with this purchase. Text or call with questions, I have a short video of me starting, revving and walking around the jeep as it idles I can send you along with any additional picture requests. 304-545-0455

2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 4X4
Wed, 13 Feb 2013Ice skates are spectacular on frozen water, yet they are dreadful everyday footwear. I consider the Jeep Wrangler equally as specialized.
I recently spent a week with a 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 4X4. Introduced for the 2007 model year, the Wrangler Unlimited is a standard JK two-door with 20.6 inches added to its wheelbase and two additional doors bolted to its passenger compartment. While Jeep offers the Unlimited in seven different trim levels, the desirable Rubicon is the most capable when the pavement ends, as it boasts a slew of hardcore off-road tools including front and rear electronic locking differentials and a front sway bar that can be disengaged at the touch of a button for improved articulation. My I-Look-Like-A-Traffic-Cone test model started with a base price of $34,095 (plus $995 destination). Options including a five-speed automatic transmission, Uconnect, tow package and a premium soft top, drove the bottom line up to $38,630.
Driving Notes
Total auto recalls already on record pace in 2014
Tue, 08 Apr 2014If you've noticed that there have been more recalls than usual this year, you may be on to something. According to a report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the US market is on pace to break a record for recalls. In 2013, 22 million cars were recalled. We're only a third of the way through 2014, though, and we've already halved that figure, with 11 million units recalled. That's wild.
Considering the past few months, it shouldn't be a surprise that General Motors is leading the charge, with six million of the 11 million units recalled coming from one of the General's four brands. Between truck recalls, CUV recalls and the ignition switch recall, 2014 hasn't been a great year for GM.
Other recall leaders include Nissan (one million Sentra and Altima sedans), Honda (900,000 Odyssey minivans), Toyota (over one million units in a few recalls), Volkswagen (150,000 Passat sedans), Chrysler (644,000 Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs) and most recently, Ford (434,000 units, the bulk of which were early Ford Escape CUVs). So while it's been a bad year for GM so far, its competitors aren't doing too well, either.
2014 Jeep Cherokee gets official in a hurry
Fri, 22 Feb 2013Automakers work very, very hard to keep their new vehicles under wraps until they can present them in exactly the way they want it - typically choreographed under the bright lights of an auto show, or perhaps with photos or video in an idyllic location. Spy shooters and leaks, in other words, keep executives and public-relations types up at night.
This is likely to be one of the most polarizing designs to come out in 2014.
Take today, for instance, when the team over at Jalopnik got a big scoop - the first undisguised shots of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, a model whose name wasn't even officially confirmed yet. The clandestine images taken inside of a factory were blurry and didn't exactly show off the crossover's radical new contours in the same sort of flattering light that Jeep probably would've wished for its product reveal. So the Auburn Hills automaker has wisely reacted by spilling at least some of the beans on the new model, giving us these four photos and confirming the Liberty replacement's name, Cherokee.
