79 Jeep CJ-5 nearly finished project in Indiana
« on: May 02, 2008, 09:06:04 PM »
79 Jeep CJ-5

- AMC 304 V8 - ran great when last driven
- 3 speed T-150 trans - rebuilt with less than 100 miles on it.
- fiberglass tub with reinforcements in the rear (body mounts)
- steel hood, grill and windshield. hood and grill are in great shape, windshield is decent, but better than most you see
- frame is completely rust and rot free - the tub was taken off, frame was ground all the way down to bare metal. the only bad part was in the rear (shackle mount). this part was cut off and replaced with new. During which was extrememly reinforced. new shackle mounts were put on. After the welding was complete the body was painted with por-15 black enamel
- new red poly performance body mounts all around even on sway bar.
- roll bar w/ shoulder belts
- transfer case guard
- gas tank gaurd
- power brakes
- power steering
- tilt steering wheel
- hard top with full hard doors
- brand new 33x12.50 R15 Dunlop Mud Rovers on nice aluminum rims
- nice custom-made aluminum front and rear bumpers
- stainless steel- side mirrors, hood latches, hood vent, passenger dash handle, wipers, etc.
- lift shackles with new bushings in the rear, new u-bolts in the rear

It comes with:
- front stock fender flares
- flat-tow tow bar
- bikini top
- spare AT tire (worn, but usable) (no rim)
- front buckets and matching rear seat
- extra parts


What it needs:
- brakes hooked up - lines ran, power brake booster hooked up
- steering rod needs connected (steering wheel is locked, so havent been able to)
- gas lines ran
- front fenders (either put stock ones on or build your own)
- shocks all around
- seats bolted down (recommend reinforcing the fiberglass)
- bolt down roll bar (recommend tying into frame)
- exhaust ran (have 2 cherry-bombs if you want 'em)
- carb probably needs a small rebuild or throughly cleaned
- some wiring work got a little messed up when the tub was taken off - it has external ignition (i recommend getting a new hassle free wiring harness)
- paint job, the current paint is roughly 10 years old, but still looks decent (metallic blue). It has bubbled in spots where it wasnt prepped well enough and has also been sanded in other spots. the hard top is original - faded black = grey
- front body mounts on the fiberglass tub need a little reinforcement
- oil dipstick is broken at bottom
- it is missing the carb air filter cover (blew off while flat towing)

***it will need to be flat-towed or trailered. It has a clean and clear title. It has been in the family for nearly 15 years.  I will consider partial trades or parting out the hard top seperately.

located in Elkhart, IN

I am asking $2995 obo
