1979 Jeep Cherokee Chief Wide Track 4x4 360 V8 Automatic in excellent condition. This Jeep Runs and drives great, AC is cold, and it's a pleasure to drive. Engine and Trans have both been rebuilt a few years back, front end is tight, brakes are in great condition. No need to have it shipped it's good to drive anywhere.It is original except for a new style ford 2bl carb (better gas millage), a 2" helper spring lift, new 33 12.50 tires, and dual exhaust. With the new style carb and bigger tires to gear it up we average around 15 mpg. I added a CD player in the console but the original am fm CB radio is still in the dash, it works but the speakers are not hooked up to it, I ran them to the CD player. I added a 15 inch electric fan to the engine for extra cooling when running ac in traffic. I have the original paperwork, owners manuals (including the window sticker) from when it was bought new at Hinkles Jeep in Pickens SC. Interior is original (not recovered) and in great shape. Body is in the most excellent rust free condition I've ever seen one of these in. It has been repainted with new decals and it looks great with the exception of a few small chips (see pictures) and some places on the roof at/in front of the luggage rack that have peeled some but easy to fix if so desire but not very noticeable as is. I hate to part with it but I need a truck. I live in Seneca SC and welcome anyone to come drive and check it over all they want before they bid but once sold it is of course as is without a warranty. My cell is 864 723 3723 At work I can't answer the phone so text only and I will call you back or email is good as well. I am a certified mechanic, ran my own shop for over 20 years before I retired from auto repair, this jeep is my personal driver so I have kept it right and ready to drive. It shows well and does draw a lot of attention wherever I go! |

Jeep lays out 5-year plan, including rebirth of Grand Wagoneer and new C-segment offering
Tue, 06 May 2014Fiat Chrysler CEO Sergio Machionne presented a five-year plan for the company brands this morning, with Jeep first up on a long day of presentation. Jeep's head honcho Michael Manley wasted no time in laying out what the foreseeable future will look like for what he calls the "lead global brand" of the company.
Big goals for the next half-decade will include expanding the lineup from five nameplates built in one country, to six nameplates build in six countries. That expansion of models will include both a three-row competitor, and, of course, a small vehicle to slot below Cherokee. The company is also seeking to add a whopping 1,300 dealers over the next few years, to sell all this new metal, and has an aggressive goal of doubling Jeep sales by the time 2018 rolls around.
As expected, that first salvo from the off-road brand will be the debut of the much ballyhooed Renegade small crossover in the third quarter of this year. Jeep has already designated that Renegade will get refreshed for the 2017 model year, as well.
2014 Jeep Cherokee will keep Liberty designation in China... sort of
Wed, 17 Apr 2013Chinese buyers will get their first live look at the 2014 Jeep Cherokee during the Shanghai Motor Show, but CarNewsChina is reporting that it will go by a different name - Ziyou Guan, which translates to "Liberty Light." The article states that our Jeep Liberty was never sold in China, but the iconic XJ Cherokee was sold and produced there as the Qinuoji (a phonetic translation of Cherokee).
The new Jeep Liberty Light will be built alongside the Fiat Viaggio (China's Fiat-badged version of the Dodge Dart) at the Guangzhou-Fiat plant, and the two models will share the same powertrains: a 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder base engine paired to a five-speed manual or a dual-clutch transmission and a 2.4-liter four-cylinder (the base engine for the US-spec 2014 Cherokee) as an optional engine. It doesn't sound like the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 will be offered in China.
We'll be on hand when the new Jeep debuts in Shanghai, so stay tuned to Autoblog this Friday night and Saturday for our live coverage of the show.
Auto critic calls out Corvette, Mustang and Cherokee faithful
Mon, 26 Aug 2013Most automotive purists fear change, but not without reason. Change, after all, did kill big-block V8s, along with most station wagons and manual transmissions. But change has also brought with it far more performance, safety and fuel economy - not to mention ridding the world of shag carpet interiors, bias-ply tires and those horrible motorized seatbelts of the early '90s.
By this time next year, the Chevy Corvette, Jeep Cherokee and next-generation Ford Mustang will all be on sale and will all, in some way, have angered or offended purists. To those critics, Mark Phelan of the Detroit Free Press is preemptively telling them to stop complaining - at least until they've all been driven. From the Corvette's square taillights and the Cherokee's radical nose to whatever pony car purists will harp on the 2015 Mustang for, Phelan's column points out the positives of automotive evolution and the negatives of staying the course for too long. That's fair enough, but do you think Phelan is on point, or all wet? Head on over to the Detroit Free Press to read his words, then have your say in Comments.
