I bought this Scrambler two years ago from the land conservation company that I work for, so i have known this Jeep for over 20 years. It was used as a project supervisor's field vehicle on an average of 2 or 3 days a week. This Jeep originally came with a 4 cylinder. When the Conservancy bought it in 1991 from a local family the engine was upgraded with the factory new in the crate V6 it has today (The engine upgrade occurred at 39K on the odometer, so the overall milage on the chasis/body is 121K). The mechanic who did the installation still works with me today, he has kept all maintenance records since that time. When I bought the Jeep I painted it, removed the carpeting and coated the tub in Rhino liner. I installed the back seat with 3 seat belts, and generally just cleaned it up. I put new 30x9.5 trail diggers on it last fall, so there is still 90% meat on those tires. The Jeep starts every time and runs fantastic. I am offering the jeep for sale because i'm moving/downsizing and loosing my garage space. The Jeep comes with a full Best Top soft top with doors (uninstalled, new in the box), two bikini tops, and two half doors.

All that good stuff said, here are the things that I haven't been able to fix or add: there is a small 3 inch crack in the right front fender by the headlight, it was my intention to replace the stock fenders with stainless aftermarkets. The speedometer needle bounces a little and doesn't hold steady, with that, the fuel gauge doesn't work and I think the sender is stuck in the tank. The dash board controls are needed, heater pull cable, blower control knob, act. see photos. The light pull switch knob is there and works fine.

There is a leak in one of the steering line hoses where they attach to the power steering reservoir so i have had to add steering fluid about every 100 miles. Thats about all i can think of. i never bought new fender flares, but there are several styles out there and the holes are still there for the stock style that i removed when i painted it. There is very little rust, there was some bondo on the right rear fender area that i discovered during painting, seemed minor. The Jeep has a really nice custom box hitch under the custom rear bumper. The spare tire is great, and mounted on the tail gate, so i don't use the gate, never have removed the bolts that hold it in the up position.

Last but not least, I would like to do a cash sale. I do not have a pay pal account. I need good old american dollars at time of pick up. The Jeep will be in Wilmington, CA (Long Beach) so please do your homework if you intend to bid. I would like to complete the sale within 3 days of the auction close. Please contact me with any questions, serious buyers only please!! This is a real deal CJ8, either you know what it is, or you don't! Thanks for your consideration.

Jeep Wrangler Polar Edition coming to America

Wed, 23 Oct 2013

Jeep originally took the wraps off its Polar Edition Wrangler at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September, and at the time, we figured this would be a Europe-only affair. (Perfectly fine, since we US customers haven't exactly been lacking special edition Wrangler models over the years.) But now, and as Jeep says, just in time for winter, the automaker has announced that the ice cold Wrangler will be hitting North American showrooms in November.
Based on the Wrangler Sahara model, the Polar Edition can be had in either two- or four-door body styles, with a unique Hydro Blue paint job as the featured color. (Buyers can also opt for less-special Billet Silver and Bright White hues.) Other exterior enhancements include a body-colored hardtop, 18-inch gloss black wheels, the Powerdome (power bulge) hood, and unique decals all around the body.
But the Polar Edition isn't just about some paint and stickers. Jeep has fitted this Wrangler with a Dana 30 front axle and Dan 44 rear axle, as well as the Trac-Lok anti-spin electronic rear differential. Like all US-spec Wranglers, the Polar Edition uses Jeep's 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, producing 285 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. Both a six-speed manual and five-speed automatic transmission are available.

2015 Jeep Renegade leaks out ahead of Geneva debut

Mon, 03 Mar 2014

Meet the Renegade - Jeep's new baby crossover that's set to debut at the Geneva Motor Show this week. The folks at Jalopnik got their hands on a small batch of photos of the new little cutie, showing what appears to be a Trailhawk (read: trail-rated) version, as well as a more civilian-spec Renegade, complete with a new removable roof system, reportedly called My Sky.
Details are slim, though in addition to the exterior images, one photo of the interior has also been leaked, showing what appears to be a small, yet functional (and nicely appointed) cabin. Early reports suggested that the new small Jeep would be based on the Fiat 500L platform, though Jalopnik rightly points out that the Renegade looks an awful lot like the Panda 4x4. Regardless, there's still likely some 500L bones under there, and we'll know more once the official details are revealed in the very near future.
Head over to Jalopnik for more shots of the cute little Renegade, and stay tuned for more information as it becomes available.

Jeep Renegade gets Riptide and Frostbite customs at SEMA

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

The cute little Jeep Renegade isn't even on sale yet, but here at SEMA, the Mopar folks are giving us a taste of what's possible for the little CUV in the big wide world of customization. Part of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' massive SEMA spread, the Renegade shows up in fresh Riptide and and Frostbite guises.
First up, the Riptide arrives in Vibrance Grandeur Blue with black wheels and a big ol' Jeep Performance Parts logo on the rear pillar. There are a few black accents elsewhere on the exterior, and a surfboard carrier rides up on the roof. The blue color scheme also finds its way inside the Renegade, on the instrument cluster and side panels, with contrasting white accents.
By contrast, the Frostbite Renegade reverses the Riptide's color scheme, with white being the main paint of choice, with blue accents abound. And inside, Katzkin seats wear blue upholstery. The Frostbite is a pretty functional creation, as well, with a Mopar ski/snowboard roof rack and a Jeep Performance Parts rock rail guard.
