Original style meets some cool upgrades, and it's all offered at an exceptional price. That's what makes this 1978 Jeep CJ5 such a hot ticket.
The appeal of this CJ5 is black and white, literally. The bright white paint looks great against the black bikini top, fender flares, extra-tall off-road tires, and the tubular side rails. Even the custom Renegade graphics match this color scheme. Plus, there's plenty of extra shine on the bumpers, hood latches, and iconic seven-slot grille. This full shine and black package come together perfectly on the tough-looking Dick Cepek wheels.
Because a proper Jeep is open to the world, the restored interior also matches with the rest of the exterior color combo. While the black bucket seats are covered in a nearly bulletproof vinyl, they are comfortable enough to make the trail an easy ride. Remember, this CJ5 was built for function (the fact that it looks so good is just the bonus!) There's a large speedo, and all the essential gauges are easy to read and mounted in the center of the upgraded chrome dash. And the grippy three-spoke Jeep steering wheel is mounted on a tilt column. Plus, you have a full upgraded roll cage finished in white. Speaking of functional upgrades, the floor has been finished in tough liner paint, which just enhances that easy sensibility that you can clean this 4x4 out with a hose after a long day in the mud.
The white engine bay funnels plenty of attention to the V8. But on a Jeep like this, you want this to do more than just look good. The 304 cubic-inch V8 was the largest motor they offered for these lightweight CJ5s, and so it has all the right kind of power and torque to get you into or out of nature's hurdles. You can tell from the fresh components that there has been good maintenance performed on this V8. The lifted suspension, upgraded shocks, Cooper Discoverer tires, and two-speed transfer case mean this Jeep is ready for 4x4 duty. But this is more than just a mud-loving machine. There's a nice set of headers and a growling dual exhaust that you'll enjoy on or off-road. The same goes for the three-speed automatic transmission.
A cool all-American Jeep with some fun upgrades and plenty of character. It's amazing you can get all of this for such a value price. But a deal this nice doesn't wait for long, call today!
