1978 Jeep Wagoneer.  12,086 ORIGINAL MILES!!!


This truck was originally a west coast truck. In storage for about 25 years in California then sold to someone in New Jersey in 2010. This Jeep remained totally stock until it was shipped to New Jersey. From that point it has had an extensive number of upgrades and add ons that are almost to much to mention. There were approx 8,200 miles on the truck when it arrived in New Jersey in 2010 currently it has just over 12,000 original miles on the odometer. It does remain almost 100% rust free, there are two small spots on the bottom rear wheel arches, one on each side approx 2" diameter(easily fixed). The paint was redone in the past and looks good with only minor dings from it being 35+years old. 

There is over $8,000 in PARTS alone on this wagoneer since it was purchased in 2010. I currently have well over $5,000 in receipts and many parts on the truck that I don't have a receipt for. It does have Dana 44 axles front and rear and was upgraded to disc brakes on all four wheels using NEW calipers, rotors, and pads. The transfer case was also upgraded to a Dana 300 twin stick. I will also include all the original parts off the truck and other wagoneer parts that I have including(the four original leaf springs, 2 original front seats in good condition, extra door hinges, extra interior and exterior trim pieces, original front spindles and hubs, original front and rear driveshafts, original aircleaner, New chrome transmission pan, original distributer, original fuel pump, used A/C compressor, New A/C compressor clutch, New headlights, original 3 piece bumper, etc.)

List of parts and work performed:

Jeep Wrangler Copper Crawler is our idea of a restrained Mopar shopping spree

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

According to a recent report, the Jeep Wrangler is the most popular SUV for customization, and this is backed up by the fact that the iconic off-roader was just named the Hottest 4x4-SUV at SEMA for the fourth year in a row. Looking for ways to keep its customers in-house rather than going aftermarket, Jeep and Mopar are always teaming to offer exciting new parts and pieces for the JK Wrangler.
Compared to most other Wranglers on display at SEMA - as well as other Chrysler Mopar SEMA concepts - the Jeep Wrangler Copper Crawler is surprisingly reserved, but should be no less exciting for owners to give their Wrangler a distinctive look. Starting off with an eye-catching copper paint scheme, the Jeep then goes on a Mopar catalog shopping spree with its matte black grille, black beadlock wheels, two-inch lift, Rubicon bumper (with a winch and aero end caps up front) and rocker panel and taillight guards.
Jeep also upgraded the Wrangler's transfer case for low-speed rock crawling (hence the vehicle's name) and cold-air intake for extra measure.

Watch this Jeep Willys return to its birthplace after 70 years

Sun, 23 Jun 2013

Earlier this month, a very significant Jeep was celebrated at the Toledo North Assembly plant. No, it wasn't the upcoming reincarnation of the Jeep Cherokee, but instead it was a 1943 Willys MB that visited the Toledo grounds where it had been built exactly 70 years ago to the day.
Of course, the actual building where the MBs rolled off the assembly line before heading to Europe for World War II no longer exists, but that didn't stop Italian owner Vittorio Argento from having the vehicle shipped to the US to make its trek back to its birth place. According to Chrysler, Argento's MB is still 95-percent original and it drove 1,000 miles from New Jersey to Toledo.
The whole adventure was chronicled on a blog aptly named A Jeep Comes Home. Scroll down for a brief video from Chrysler and for some photos of the Toledo visit and be sure to read more at Argento's blog.

Marchionne uses racial epithet to describe what must power future Alfa Romeo models

Wed, 16 Jan 2013

Sergio Marchionne and his Fiat empire have a lot riding on the US return of the Alfa Romeo brand. The endeavor has been in progress for what feels like a lifetime - certainly for as long as Fiat has had the Chrysler brand under its Italian wing.
It's not surprising that Fiat CEO Marchionne needs a perfect first Alfa to mark a return to America. And here's where things get dicey. Nobody would argue with Marchionne's insistence that Alfa Romeo's be powered by Italian engines - as Marchionne himself is quoted to have said at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, "There are some things that are well done in Italy."
If not what he said, then, it's how he said it that has eyebrows raised. "I cannot come up with a schlock product, I just won't. I won't put an American engine into that car. With all due respect to my American friends, it needs to be a wop engine." Wait, what's that?
