1986 Jeep Cj-7 Renegade Original Rare Rust Free Survivor Hard Top on 2040-cars

Year:1986 Mileage:48822
Location:

Roswell, Georgia, United States

Roswell, Georgia, United States

Up for auction is my 1986 Jeep CJ-7 Renegade - Original, rust free survivor!  Last year of the CJ-7! 

Reserve is WELL BELOW the market on this CJ!  I am listing TO SELL, not for my health!  You're not wasting your time bidding on this listing! 

This CJ has the rarest interior color of all non special edition CJ7's -  Garnet!  

I purchased this rare piece of automotive history in December of 2013 out of Amarillo Texas with 48k original miles. (After looking for it for 2 years)

I had the Jeep extensively checked out by a local dealer, and per their recommendation, I had all differential fluids changed, rear brakes replaced (with brake seals), engine oil & transmission fluid replaced, coolant & coolant hoses were replaced, as well as having it tuned up.  This is a 'no apologies' CJ! 

I have never noticed any leaks on the Jeep, and would have no issue driving it cross country.  (And back) 

This CJ has the 258 inline 6 cylinder (4.2 liter) with the extremely high demand T-176 4 speed transmission backing it up, with an AMC 20 rear axel.  The Jeep cranks easily, idles smooth, and drives perfect.  The T-176 shifts great, with the throws tight and notchy, and the Power Steering make the Jeep effortless to control.

The paint and decals appear to be completely original.  The paint's clear coat is chipping on the hood, and the hood also has with 2 paint chips on it, with just the normal amount of wear and tear elsewhere.  The cowl's paint is thinning - but not bad at all.  (Please remember this is a survivor). The Renegade decals are bright, correct, and in nice condition for their age.  

As best as I can tell this Jeep was equipped from the factory with the hard doors, and a soft top.  (It has the proper 'vent window dash pad' that only comes on a hard door CJ) The doors are still in good shape, and the windows operate smoothly.  The soft top was swapped out long ago for what appears to be a YJ Hard top, and it is in very good condition.  (No cracks in glass or fiberglass damage) 

The floor pans, windshield frame, cowl, and under the roll bar, are all solid as a rock. (Light surface oxidation under drivers feet) 


Please do not bid on this CJ if you're just planning on turning it into rock crawler, parting out the interior, or slathering the tub with cheap 'do it yourself' bed liner.  This Jeep is the very last year of the most iconic vehicle in American history, and deserves a new owner that will treat it as such.  Reserve is WELL BELOW market and I will assist you if you wish to ship this Jeep.  $500.00 deposit via PayPal upon completion of this auction, with the remainder within 4 business days.  Please let me know if you have any questions, or if you would like to view it in person. 

Happy bidding!

Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango to lose color options temporarily

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

In the market for a Jeep Grand Cherokee or Dodge Durango? Well, if you fancy a more expressive color for your new SUV, you'd better get your order in, or plan on waiting until well into 2015.
The SUVs will be limited to just four monochromatic shades - black, white, silver and gray - until at least February, thanks to an upgrade to the paint shop at the two vehicles' Jefferson North factory. For the Grand Cherokee, that means it's losing more than half its color palette while the Durango is dropping two-thirds of its color catalog.
The loss of colors is inconvenient, but the upgrade will have a slightly bigger effect on the overall supply of SUVs, as Chrysler will need to end its relentless build pace at the factory for a three-week shutdown starting on December 22. The good news for fans of the SUVs is that once the work is completed, we should see a gradual expansion of the color palettes for both the Durango and Grand Cherokee, beyond even what's offered now.

Fiat-Chrysler shows its SEMA lineup

Fri, 24 Oct 2014

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles already previewed its 2014 SEMA show lineup with some slick renders. Now, the automaker has finally showed us the actual cars, and among the group there are definitely some that stand out more than others.
Dodge is really showing off its muscle at this year's show with four concepts that all pump up the power of the brand's models. Perhaps most interesting among them is the Challenger T/A Concept (pictured above) in striking Sublime Green and matte black. It's meant to resemble the classic Trans Am racer from the '70s. Under the hood is a 6.4-liter V8, and to fit the vintage style there's a pistol-grip gearshift inside.
The Charger R/T also gets some attention with the Mopar concept that shows off what FCA's aftermarket performance arm can do. Mods include an updated body kit, cold-air intake for the 5.7-liter V8 and a coil-over suspension kit. Beyond that, the Dart R/T Concept looks a lot meaner with a black hood with duct work that leads straight to the air intake. The rest of the compact sedan is dolled up in O-So-Orange paint and is fitted with upgrades to improve handling like a coil-over suspension and big brake kit from the Mopar catalog.

Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).
