This is a unique auction and a rare jeep. I do not wish to sell this jeep. I've partnered in a successful venture that requires funding from my side. I will sell this jeep with a contingency. The sale will be contingent upon the right to buy this jeep back for $35. 00 within a 4 month time frame from the date of auction close. This was originally an Alabama jeep with zero rust and still has zero rust. I have spent the last 7 years building this project. It has:ENGINE: 2002 LS6 5. 7L Corvette engine 38K miles. 405 Horsepower / 400ft lb Torque. Mobil 1 synthetic. The ECM has been specifically tuned for this setup by Jannety Racing in Waterbury. CT so it gets 25mpg. Engine swap cost $15. 60 including the transmission - completed 4 months ago. TRANSMISSION: Brand new NV4500 5 speed with the 5th gear ring issue common to these transmissions. fixed. For those that know jeeps. this is an unbreakable transmission. It will cruise the highway at 90mph no problem. FRONT AXLE: New Currie Dana 44 front with ARB air lockers. This was recently installed (within 1 year) 4:10 gearsREAR AXLE: Original Dana 44 rear with ARB air lockers 4:10 gearsDriveshaft: Tom woods CVTransfer Case: Rebuilt Dana 300Oversized 22 gallon gas tank with skid plate. 33" BFG KM2 Tires with 90% tread remaining. Ceramic coated headers --> Custom Stainless Steel dual 2. 5" exhaust with 22" Magna Flow mufflers. I researched for weeks exhaust systems and this one growls low and deep like there is a #%&ing monster inside that wants out. SUSPENSION: 2. 5" BDS suspension with adjustable RS9000 shocks front and rear. Brake booster installed. New Warn bumpers front and rear with rear tailgate full sized tire carrier. BODY: Powder coated inside and out. FRAME: Powder coated and filled with (Great Stuff) foam to keep moisture out. Fully working AC. Brand new black Carpet. New passenger seat. Seat heaters. Rear ancillary independent heaters. Tomkin rocker panels / running boards New oversized 4 core aluminum NOVAK radiator Dual battery setup with relay in the cab. GPS included :)Mahogany steering wheel So many extras and too many to list. but these are the major things. Hats off to NOVAK for all the help spec'ing this project. There are some upgrades that I would consider next for this project. One. is to fabricate an air ride (air bag) suspension. Need a long arm suspension installed first. A couple more. inverter. remote car starter. GPS tracking so it doesn't get stolen. rear seat heater. HAM radio for the apocalypse. rear winch. snorkel. ARB refrigerator. portable shower. If I haven't mentioned it then it isn't an issue so please don't waste time with obvious questions. This is not a show vehicle with bullshit flames on the hood. This vehicle was built to be unbreakable. last forever. go anywhere. King of kings in the jeep world :)
