This auction is for a 1980 CJ-5 4x4 Jeep. The jeep is in good condition and has not been used much in the last 3 years and needs a new home. It has a clean California Title and is california smog legal with current 2017 tags.
The body is in good shape the paint is about 10 years old. it is straight with only minor dents and minimal paintscratchesand blemishes. It is a metallic brown and has matching paint on roll bars, dash and under hood. It comes with the hard top pictured which has been painted with bed liner(Rhino Lining Ibelieve ) and the inside of the tub has also beenrhino lined, both were done professionally and look good. It also comes with abikini top that snaps onto the full roll cage. Lastly it comes with an additional set of half doors for when you have the top off. The roof rack is in great shape. The rear rack holds two 5 gallon jerry cans and a full sized spare tire, it also has room for coolers and gear on the back. The seatsdon'thave any tears. It has a steel locking center console with the radio hidden inside.
The original engine was swapped out at some point and now has a 1989 Fuel injected 350 Chevy V-8 engine. It has been smog certified and has the sticker on the firewall(See Pictures). Engine runs good and all 4 wheel drive train works as it should. It has ARB differential air lockers front and back with an air compressor but I was unable to get them toengage when I tested it. Don't know why, but most likely due to it not being used, the compressor works fine.The front bumper is a custom air tank for the air system. It has power brakes and disk brakes on the front. It also haspower steering and has very light steering . The transmission is a 4 speed and shifts fine. It has a new battery and clutch master cylinder.
The tires havea lotof tread left, there is minor pitting on the chrome rimes.
The known issues:
We did not do the engine swap and it appears that it was put in when the body was painted and all the work was done on the jeep. I can not say for sure how many miles are on the engine but it runs strong with no smoke. The odometer read 19,972 and Idon'tknow the actual milage. The starter is a little noisy but works fine. I am also not sure what the axle ratios are but they are not stock and are high ratio. It is set up for crawling around the sierra nevadas and is not street friendly. I would plan on trailering it home as it has not been driven much anddon't know how well it would handle freeway speeds. As stated above the air lockers would notengage when tested (unsure why and they worked when parked last). It ismissing a few of the stock interior placards.
Please email with any questions or if any additional pictures are needed. Shipping is theresponsabilityof the buyer and the jeep is sold as is.
