PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU CONSIDER BIDDING ON THIS JEEP

You are bidding on a complete and running unrestored original 1982 Jeep Wagoneer SJ Limited in Jamaica Beige with $4500 of recent mechanical work.

Dear Jeep Lovers and Wagoneer Lovers:

This is an original 1982 Jeep Wagoneer SJ. '82 was the first year it had all the luxury options. All the original features/options work unless otherwise stated below.
  The body is "high" miles (not for its age) (199k) but most of that was spent being towed behind an RV.  Then the Jeep sat for many years.   It has a clear Colorado title. This vehicle has spent its entire life in rust-free Northern Colorado and was originally purchased in Greeley, Colorado then registered in LaSalle, CO, then Ault, CO. It has a clean Carfax report which I will be happy to email to you or you can pull one on your own.  It is a daily driver and starts the first time, every time, no matter the weather.  The carpet is in excellent shape with no major tears or holes.  The paint is original with no major rust and no dents unless otherwise stated.  Wheels are original.  Upholstery is original.  A list of what is new (mechanically and cosmetically) is listed below.  Receipts for all the work I have done can be provided.  

Remember, this is a 30 year old vehicle.  It will never be perfect unless you do a frame off restoration.  This is an unrestored original which means if something needed to be fixed or replaced, it was done (as you would on any car).  But is was never repainted or removed from the frame to restore in any way.  Recently, an unrestored original Wagoneer sold for $17500 on eBay.  One sold via Craigslist right here in Colorado for $21000.  They are highly desirable and have an amazing following.  This is your chance to buy one knowing exactly what has been done to it and exactly what's left. I have provided below a list of what is wrong with the Jeep still that I have not gotten to yet.  I will do my best to disclose everything down to the last detail.  I will answer every question you have.

WHAT STILL NEEDS TO BE DONE/REPAIRED??
I am still in the process of restoring the Wagoneer to 100% and there is NOT MUCH LEFT to do.  This list may seem long, but I have intentionally included even the smallest issue so there are no surprises.  All of this work is simple and can be done easily. 
• Rear springs work fine but need to be replaced to restore original ride height.
• Transmission leaks which has been diagnosed at the front pump seal.  This needs to be repaired and causes the transmission to not want to engage into 1st gear when it is cold.  However this rarely happens and goes away after a few blocks.
• The exterior sweep molding on all 4 doors has been removed because it was dry-rotted from sitting for so long.  These are available for $13 each on line.  I can provide you this information.
• Power mirrors did work until the wires were pulled off during work inside the door panel.  With a schematic, you could solder the connections back on.
• Tires need to be replaced.  Tread is good but they are dry rotted from sitting in storage for so long.
• Two small rust holes behind the rear wheels need repaired
• Upholstery needs redone as stated above
• Radio works but there is a short that cuts off the left speakers occasionally
• The internal door handle mechanisms need to be lubed
• There is a small ding in the hood less than the size of a dime. This is the ONLY dent.  I tried to take a picture of it but it is so small it won't show up in the pictures.  It is smaller than a single hail dent.
• The rear window switch needs to be replaced.  This switch was already purchased and will come with the vehicle.  The window works from the switch on the dash but not with a key from the tailgate.  You will just have to install it.
• There is a small hole in the carpet in the cargo area right near the edge.
• There is a small piece of trim missing on the drivers side rear door (that you wouldn't even notice unless I told you) See pictures.
• The windshield has been sealed with sealant to prevent leaking.  It is barely noticeable.

Email me any and all questions and happy bidding!

Jeep reveals annual Moab Easter Jeep Safari concepts

Wed, 20 Mar 2013

Jeep has unveiled its annual spate of concepts before the Easter Jeep Safari. Those start with the Grand Cherokee Trailhawk Concept (below left), complete with the company's EcoDiesel V6 engine. Designers threw in a set of 35-inch Mickey Thompson tires wrapped around 17-inch Rubicon wheels, and a set of custom fender flares help keep all that rubber under wraps.
Meanwhile, the Wrangler Mopar Recon (below right) packs a 6.4-liter Hemi V8 good for 470 horsepower. All that grunt gets to the ground via a five-speed automatic transmission and a set of a Dana 60 axles frond and rear with 4.10 gears. The Recon also makes use of a 4.5-inch prototype long-arm kit and a set of prototype eight-lug bead lock wheels.
The Wrangler Stitch (below left) builds on the momentum of the Wrangler Pork Chop Concept. Engineers once again set out to strike as much weight as possible from the vehicle, and actually managed to trim the curb weight down to 3,000 pounds. That effort has given the machine the same power to weight ratio as the Grand Cherokee SRT8. Plenty of carbon fiber, door deletes and a chrome moly roll cage all help trim those pounds, and a set of DanyTrac Pro Rock 44 axles with 4.88 gears and ARB lockers front and rear let this machine scramble over whatever is in its path.

Jeep follows up Super Bowl spot with call to help the USO

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Once again, Chrysler had one of the most talked about Super Bowl commercials with its two-minute Whole Again Jeep spot, which was used to highlight its Operation SAFE Return program for US military personnel returning home from active duty. As part of this campaign, Jeep announced today that it will be donating up to $300,000 to the United Services Organizations (USO), and you can help.
Simply tweet using the #joinOSR hashtag on Twitter, visit the Yahoo! homepage or go to the Jeep Operation SAFE Return website, and Jeep will donate $1 to a fund that provides returning troops things like employment assistance and incentives to buy new vehicles. Jeep is also donating to this charity to the tune of $250 for each Jeep Wrangler and Wrangler Unlimited (including the Freedom Edition model) and Jeep Patriot Freedom Edition model sold.

An inside look at Mopar's SEMA fleet

Mopar is heading to the SEMA show in Las Vegas with a fleet of customized vehicles that appeal to enthusiasts of all stripes. There's a Dodge Viper ACR concept that follows in the lineage of the supercar's great road racing past, and a custom Ram ProMaster that might just be the ultimate outdoor party machine.
We got an inside look at Mopar's cars that will be on display at the show, which also include a Dodge Challenger T/A concept, two crazy Jeeps and a Ram 2500 Outdoorsman that could change the way you camp. While these are some of our favorites, Mopar is bringing plenty to SEMA, so let us know your top choices in the comments section.
