Introducing the American legend with the 21st century drivability.

This is not your average jeep. It is a custom build by a Master Craftsman. This Jeep was built to be the baddest Jeep on the planet by combining race track performance with superior off road capability. Build was completed in 2010 and Jeep was a "trailer queen" show jeep for the past four years. Only 1850 miles on this engine since the build.  This Jeep started out as an 88 wrangler renegade. It's grill and headlights have been converted to a CJ. The suspension was converted from leaf to coil over (JK).

Engine is a bowtie 383 stroker with a bowtie aluminum heads custom built engine was built for the race team owner Glenn Clements. (Owner NASCAR 51) Jeremy Clements Nationwide series. I looked at several hemi jeeps before purchasing this one and they can't hold a candle to the on/off road performance of this Jeep.

This motor was incredibly expensive coming from a master builder. Check them out. I can't add to their reputation. Compared to cost of jeep, motor became minor

The cost of the motor build became relevant to the cost of labor for the year to complete the build

I wiped off all leaf springs and converted to full coil spring suspension to JK Rubicon specs, to build and produce and obtain incredible drive ability, and I must say it is fun and safe at any speed

All metal is original metal, no aftermarket metal at all!

Specs heckler paint system on jeep, chrome orange to electric pearl red, to black cherry with a silver allusion on base coat.

Painted frame, cleaned interior of frame with long wand and steam jenny, then sand blasted. All frame was submerged in P.O.R. primer, followed by 8 coats of Imron train paint.

Look at most Chevy powered jeeps and you will see a common automatic transmission (very easy)

Or NV 4500 popular with rock crawlers, it has a granny gear, or the AMC 4 speed uses a 3/4 " dia, but if you drop the clutch with more than 250 ish horsepower it snaps the main. In the Chevy the old Muncie was good up to about 380 h.p. but good shifting. In this build a super T-10 by Richmond it's a real street or strip choice, but it's not for 4 wd it's a long trans, but I bought a new standard super T-10 and had my contact swap the tail section for an atlas clock ring and ordered a 100% billet steel CNC main that's 1 1/4 " in dia. Rated at 1250 lb. of tork, and is less than 1/2 as long as the stock, &merging into an atlas transfer case also 1250 lb. of tork rating, 1350 U joint's, (dooly size)

A 2.77 1st 2.20 2nd 1.50 3rd1 to 1, 4th quick shift kit. A racing 4 speed and 4 WD. I have never seen another one.

We give you a list of 80% of cool name brands, briefly discussed drive train, paint, suspension, but the real value was in the master craftsman of build. It takes a very grounded expert with vast knowledge and experience in the area of Hot Rod's, Classic's, Collectables, understanding the quality on eccentric levels to recognize a master piece by another master craftsman.

There are so many things and so much to list; I can't possibly list it all.

The build of this jeep exceeded $120,000

Fiat Chrysler target 850k sales in China by 2018

Sun, 11 May 2014

Behind the vanguard of numerous Jeep models, two Chryslers, a smattering of Fiats and Alfa Romeos and local production through a joint venture with Guangzhou Automotive Group (GAG), Fiat Chrysler wants to increase sales in China more than six-fold by 2018. The group sold 130,000 cars in China in 2013, the aim for 2018 being 850,000 cars.
Ultimately it's expected that the Jeep Grand Cherokee, Cherokee, Wrangler, Renegade, the coming Grand Wagoneer and a sub-Renegade-sized crossover will either be built in or exported to the People's Republic. The Chrysler Town & Country and 300 will join the export list in 2016 and 2018 respectively, according to a report in Automotive News.
With a number of those vehicles not in production or perhaps even envisaged yet, and others not due on the local market until 2018, it will be interesting to see how Fiat Chrysler plans to achieve the target in the specified timeframe. The joint venture with GAG builds two products now, the Dodge Dart-based Fiat Viaggio launched two years ago - supposedly designed just for China - and the just-launched Fiat Ottimo, a hatchback version of the Viaggio. Fiat projected 300,000 Viagio sales in its first two years, that number has been adjusted downward to 94,000 and there doesn't appear to be an analyst alive that sees a good future for Fiat in China's overrun mainstream market. Still, last year's 130,000 group sales in China is a huge jump from 2012 sales of 66,000 units, but less than half the 300,000 units it projected.

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky

Fri, 24 Aug 2012

It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).

Australian Jeep marketing stunt goes awry [w/video]

Tue, 15 Jul 2014

Jeep fans in Australia are none too happy with the off-road brand following a contest that saw ten new Cherokees sold for just $10,000 Australian (about $9,400), roughly a quarter of the vehicle's price Down Under.
The contest, called the "World's Most Remote Dealership," gave Aussies the chance to snag an ultra-affordable Cherokee Longitude (analogous to the US-spec Latitude trim), provided they could get to a secret dealership in the remote wilderness of western New South Wales, near the border with the state of South Australia.
In order to get the exact location of the dealership, though, potential customers needed to download an app, which would release a phone number 9:00 AM AEST on Thursday (7:00 PM EDT, Wednesday night). The first ten people who could call in and prove they could afford to finance $10,000 and get to the remote dealership, were given the location of the remote dealership.
