1978 Jeep CJ5
Cool upgrades meet with some original style, and it's all offered at an exceptional price. That's what makes this 1978 Jeep CJ5 Renegade such a hot ticket.This Jeep is distinctive from the first moment you lay eyes on it. The fresh electric blue paint instantly conveys the modern investment in this classic icon. The more modern black Renegade trim is the perfect match for the darkly painted floors this 4x4 has to offer. It includes the upgraded wheels and tough diamond-plated rear panel covers. But more than just added aggression, you'll also enjoy the original touches that a true upgraded Renegade package offers, like the fender flares and roll bar. And of course, the round headlights and seven-slot grille instantly connect you to all the history a Jeep has to offer. That's why these look just as good driving down High Street as they do exploring the high lands.Inside is more great merging of the new and iconic features. The modern exterior blue is continued on the classic dash that has the oil and power gauges flanking the large central speedometer. This is an earlier CJ5, so you get the classic design of a two-spoke steering wheel. Plus, it has the sportier profile with the low back bucket seats (headrests optional) that have recently been recovered in a new durable vinyl. And the whole floor has been covered in a tough liner paint, so looking good from a day out on the trails is just a garden hose away.This one is even nicely coordinated under the hood with the blue painted motor and dark black components that nicely match the interior and exterior. But more than just look great, the 258 cubic-inch inline-six motor is a long established powerplant for Jeep that has proven its reliability, and continues to have easy parts availability. Torquey and robust, this is the engine you want pulling through daily traffic or the worst slop Mother Nature can throw at you. The three-speed manual transmission feeds the two-speed transfer case, and seriously beefy axles at both ends. Tall gears and low range give it rock-crawling stability, but thanks to the modern Dunlop Rover all-terrain tires and front disc brakes, it's comfortable in the urban scene, too.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!!
