Up for auction is a classic 1982 Jeep CJ 7 Laredo. This Jeep is in its original form and has never been restored. It spent 95% of its life in New Mexico and California's dry humidity which accounts for its amazing shape. The Jeep shows its original factory paint job as can been seen in the photos. The original welding marks can still be seen as well. The paint does have touch ups as to be expected on a vehicle of this age, as well as one small area on the hood that the paint has worn away. The touch ups are small and have been included in the pictures. The body itself is straight and free of any dings or damage.The under carriage of this jeep is in absolutely amazing shape. It truly looks as if it has recently rolled of the showroom floor. Do not be mistaken, the undercarriage has not been touched in any way and the Jeep frame still sports the original hand written code as seen in the pictures. The engine and drive train have 128,500 original miles which is very low for a Jeep built in 1982, hence the current shape the Jeep is in today. The engine is the the proven Jeep 258 backed with a factory automatic transmission. All gauges and lights work as they should and are original to this Jeep. The only items not original to this Jeep is the CD player, small suspension lift, new BesTop seats, and updated wrangler hard top for better visibility. As you can see the word original is used often to describe this Jeep CJ 7, as that is the condition that the Jeep is in. The Jeep is a true collectors item and I have enjoyed it. The only small issue currently is a firm shift from 2nd to 3rd gear, it is only noticeable on aggressive take offs. I have been told this is a small adjustment issue, however I baby the Jeep when it is driven and it was never an issue for me. Please look through all the photos and if you have any questions feel free to email me. I am more than happy to provide a phone number for further discussions on the Jeep. I will also try to load a walk around video via youtube and will provide the link to those who are interested. My only reason for selling this Jeep is that I recently inherited my fathers Jeep CJ 7 and it holds immense sentimental value. Open bid is the lowest I'll accept for the jeep, so once a bid is placed the Jeep will sale. Thank you and happy bidding. I will also be more than happy to show this Jeep in person for those who are interested. Please do not bid if you do not plan on buying. For those with less than 10 feedbacks, please contact me prior to bidding or bids will be cancelled. Here is the updated link to the walk around video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6nGWOIVSo0

Jeep Wrangler Polar Edition coming to America
Wed, 23 Oct 2013Jeep 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.
2014 Jeep Cherokee facing production delay
Fri, 17 May 2013Jeep's bold-faced new direction spearheaded by the 2014 Cherokee is facing some teething issues. According to a report by the Detroit Free Press, production start-up of the controversial new utility vehicle at its Toledo North facility is running about a month behind schedule "due to a wide range of issues." That's according to Mark Chernoby, senior vice president of engineering at Chrysler.
Chernoby maintains that the issues being encountered aren't unusual for the launch of a new vehicle - particularly one with a new powertrain - and he downplayed the delay, telling Jeep dealers that they "will have ample inventory of the midsize SUV by fall." Among the kinks being worked out? Calibrating the Cherokee's cutting-edge ZF nine-speed automatic transmission and refining assembly line tasks to make the process more efficient.
Chrysler expects to start building retail-ready versions of the Cherokee around mid-June, with official sales slated to start in September.
2013 AEV Brute Double Cab
Fri, 11 Jan 2013These are the guys who bring an M777 howitzer to a knife fight. In terms of overall rugged utility, the all-new 2013 Brute Double Cab from American Expedition Vehicles (AEV) is about as overkill as they come, and we can't seem to get enough of the beasts that this company produces. Unlike most aftermarket firms, always striving to lower cost and increase volume (but at the expense of quality), Michigan-based AEV takes pride in its OEM-quality design, engineering, manufacturing and testing. Everything is as good, or better, than the stuff from the factory, and they have been doing it this way for more than 15 years.
Launched at the recent 2012 SEMA show was the 2013 AEV Brute Double Cab. Its debut marked the company's expansion to a four-door Brute on the newer JK platform (drawing inspiration from the Land Rover Defender 130). I recently spent a few hours with the new truck in sunny Southern California, though unfortunately, due to time constraints, I was limited to pavement-only driving impressions.
