Here is a rare collector grade find. A completely original paint (AMC Firecracker Red) and decaled (Levi tan) Jeep CJ Renegade. This Jeep is the LAST YEAR for the Levi Renegade package and it maintains all of its original features.  This Jeep has not been restored and has not been repainted.  If you are looking for an original collector Jeep, look no further, and purchase with confidence.  I have been a Jeep collector for 20+ years.  This Jeep is one of the nicest and most optioned/original Renegade's I have come across.  The Jeep has just over 50k original miles and you can still listen to the original AM factory radio.  This particular Renegade has the factory/dealer optioned Ramsey... winch still works.  There is absolutely no rust or rot on this vehicle. If your looking for an original AMC era Jeep, this is it. This is truly a Jeep enthusiasts and automobile collector's masterpiece. In the CJ Jeep world, these are not found often! It has a very rare combination of the desirable 304 V8 with an automatic/quadra-trac transmission.  This vehicle was special ordered for a retired attorney in Idaho.  I purchased the Jeep from the adult son of a family friend.  The Jeep has a neat history, so feel free to call and inquire about it.  This color combination is considered very desirable.  The American Motor Company actually used this color scheme in an advertisements like the one pictured below. The attached pictures speak for themselves; however, if you would like to request others, feel free to call.  

The vehicle shifts and drives very smooth. It drives STRAIGHT down the interstate at 70 MPH.  Again, this is a great driving Jeep that ANYONE can enjoy.  The decals/paint are original and have GREAT PATINA! The frame is straight and there are are no signs of damage or repairs.  The frame and tub is in EXCELLENT condition (see pictures).   You will look long and hard to find another cleaner, more original, Jeep CJ in existence!  Both sets of wheels will be included if the "Buy it Now" price is met.  Please, Call seller before making an offer through EBAY.

Please call if you have ANY questions or would like to make an offer.

2014 Jeep Cherokee facing production delay

Fri, 17 May 2013

Jeep'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.

Chrysler defies NHTSA, says it won't recall 2.7M Jeep Grand Cherokee, Liberty models

Wed, 05 Jun 2013

Facing a possible recall totaling around 2.7 million of its most popular SUVs, Chrysler remains insistent that the 1993-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee and 2002-2007 Jeep Liberty are safe vehicles. This comes on the heels of a recall request from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration for these two models due to fuel tanks mounted behind the rear axle, which could possibly be ruptured during severe rear-end collisions, leading to an increased risk of fire. In response to the allegations, Chrysler says that it does not agree with NHTSA nor does it plan on recalling either vehicle.
Chrysler said both SUVs "met and exceeded" the requirements for fuel-system integrity, and cooperated fully with NHTSA since the investigation was opened in 2010. While 15 deaths and 46 injuries have been reported from fires caused by rear-end collisions on these models, Chrysler is claiming that the vast majority of incidents cited by NHTSA were "high-energy crashes," including one where a stopped Grand Cherokee was rear-ended by a tractor trailer going 65 miles per hour.
The automaker wraps up by saying "NHTSA seems to be holding Chrysler Group to a new standard for fuel tank integrity that does not exist now and did not exist when the Jeep vehicles were manufactured." Scroll down for Chrysler's official response to NHTSA, but we're pretty sure this isn't the last we've heard on this issue.

Chrysler accelerates Jeep recall repairs from 2018 to March

Thu, 17 Jul 2014



You may remember that Jeep's unusual fix for this recall involves fitting a trailer hitch.
The recall of about 1.5 million models of the 2002-2007 Jeep Liberty and 1993-1998 Grand Cherokee over fuel tanks may finish far sooner than originally estimated. In a new filing from Jeep's parent, Chrysler Group, with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the company says that it can complete the repairs for the affected vehicles by March 2015, much sooner than the previous estimate of sometime in 2018. Jeep predicts the total cost of the campaign will be around $151 million.
