I am offering up for sale one of the nicest Jeeps I have ever owned.

CONDITION:

This Jeep runs and drives like a dream.  Just turn the key and it immediately comes alive.  The original owner bought this Jeep just before retirement.  He claimed that it never saw a winter being that they were snowbirds (had one house in Idaho and one in Arizona).  The mileage of 75,500 are original miles and the original owner stated that half of those miles were towed miles.  Just drive this Jeep and see its condition and you will know that he was telling the truth.  There is absolutely NO RUST on this Jeep.  It has always been in the dry climates of Idaho and Arizona.  It is extremely rare to find a Jeep of this age and in its original condition with No Rust.  As you can tell by the pictures, it is nearly flawless.  The Laredo stickers are in great shape and there are a few small light surface scratches and no dents.  You will have a hard time finding one this nice and in this great of condition.

The only thing that this Jeep is missing is the original Air Conditioning.  The original owner had it removed because he did not believe air conditioning should have come in a Jeep in the first place.  If the Jeep doesn't sell, I am going to keep it and put in an aftermarket Vintage Air system.  (Vintage Air will be more reliable than trying to find the original compressor anyway).  As you can see, the mounts for the air conditioning compressor are still attached to the engine block, so the addition of the compressor would be simple.  I drive this Jeep daily and it is a blast to be in.  It gets looks all the time.  The Laredo package on this CJ5 doesn't end with the decals, it also has the upgraded steering wheel, custom leather seats and leather grab bar, ash tray on the dash, badging, clock, etc.  All the gauges work as they should and the last trip I took which was about 150 miles, I got about 16 miles to the gallon at @ 60-65 mph.  (With the 4 speed, I could have traveled faster.  RPM Gauge was reading just under 2,000 RPM's at 65 mph).

The Four Wheel Drive works as it should and it as well as the transmission shifts perfect, just like new.  In the time that I have owned this Jeep, it has been very reliable and I would not have a problem driving this across the country (as long as the weather is nice).  As are most CJ5's, it can be a little squirrely with the Power Steering, however, I got used to it really quick and as mentioned above, I have traveled long distances with it at a fast pace.

FEATURES: 

Jeep comes with the original 1981 Jeep Owners Manual, soft top with full soft doors, soft half doors, good tire life left on the All-Terrain BFGoodrich Tires, Original Factory Wheels, the original owner owned this Jeep until this year.  I admit, I got a great deal on it and if I do not sell it, I will keep it.  It is worth every penny and more of my Buy It Now price.  The lucky new owner of this Jeep will be in Heaven and be the envy of many.  That is how great this Jeep is.  The Jeep has not been lifted.  When I bought it, I had a local spring shop re-arch the front springs so that the Jeep would sit level.  The springs are still in the stock original location.  The Jeep also has the stock Posi-Trac in the Rear.  It does not leak any fluids what-so-ever.  Oil changes were done regularly with 10-30 Valvoline and K&N Oil Filters.

I am sure that I am missing something, so if you have any questions or comments, just send them my way and I will answer them.  I can also take more pics if you want to see something specific that are not in the pics in the ad.  As you can see by my feedback, I am very honest and truthful in describing what I am selling.  This ad is no exception.  You will not be disappointed with this Jeep.

Shipping is at the owners expense, however, I will do what I can to help load the Jeep.  Good Luck.  Thanks for looking at my auction.  You can call or text me at 2O8.869.9927.  I am in Idaho.

Jeep rear-mounted fuel tank controversy

Jeep Wrangler by Vilner takes extreme luxury off-road

Mon, 20 Jan 2014

Vilner turned its customary and intensely luxurious attentions to a two-door Jeep Wrangler Sahara Unlimited back in 2012, following that up this year with its take on the four-door version. A coat of lustrous black paint outside is brightened up LED headlights, foglights and taillights and layers of chrome laid on the grille, mirrors, door handles and fuel filler cap.
Stance gets an injection of brawn from the 20-inch wheels, and they'll roll faster thanks to the power upgrade from 197 horsepower and 339 pound-feet of torque in the 2.8-liter diesel to 257 hp and 412 lb-ft.
Inside is furious red, with cross-stitched crimson leather and Alcantara demanding your focus. When you can look away from that, you'll find the raw metal parts painted black and again ornamented in minor applications of chrome. Feel free to feast on it in the high-res gallery above.

Chrysler highlights Mopar lineup for SEMA

Wed, 30 Oct 2013

SEMA is all about aftermarket parts, and in Auburn Hills that all comes down to one name: Mopar. After having previewed its lineup for this year's Vegas tuner expo earlier this month, Chrysler has now revealed what may not quite be its full dossier of modified show cars, but a good portion of them.
All told Mopar is preparing 20 vehicles for display at SEMA this year. Among them you'll find the Ram Sun Chaser, a 1500 Quad Cab show truck kitted out in two-tone orange and black paint, a roof rack for surfboards, onboard shower and convertible tailgate. The white Fiat 500L is called the Adventurer and is modified for a more rugged look that could hint at the upcoming crossover version. The Jeep Cherokee Trail Carver upgrades on the Trailhawk package with everything from roof basket to rock rails. To counterbalance the off-roaders, there's also a modified Chrysler 300S with a deep black paint job, special grille, Varvatos-edition wheels and more.
All four concepts details so far have Katzkin interiors as well, and there's also an unspecified Dodge Durango with a storm-trooper look in the gallery above. But for more details on what Mopar has installed on the Ram, 500L, Cherokee and 300, you'll want to delve into the press release below.
