1975 Jeep Cj5 (304 V8) Lifted W/31" Tires & Tilt Steering on 2040-cars
Lompoc, California, United States
Hello & Thanks for Looking, Up for auction is my personal 1975 Jeep CJ5 V8 Softop. I bought this as a basket-case and have sorted through this truck to make a truly reliable and fun Jeep. I've gone through and replaced almost all of the electrical connectors from the front turn signals to the new LED brake lights and almost all the wiring between.There are no electrical gremlins, and the alternator charges incredibly quickly. I've been using this Jeep as my daily driver for some time, and the farthest I've driven it is 350 miles in one way (8hr trip) . This CJ5 starts the first time, every time. As life would have it, my wife and I are expecting our first child so the Jeep has to go. It's a real shame because I've spent so much time and money to get this Jeep to the way you see it today. The condition report should be read at the bottom for consideration. With a little paint, this could easily be a $20,000 truck, because everything mechanical has pretty much been done. Buyer must co-ordinate shipping if buyer requires freight, but I'm very to work with a shipping company if needed. The Main Features of this Jeep are: Engine -Stock 304 V8 w/2bbl Carb -Engine Runs Very Strong with Almost 40psi Oil Pressure at Startup -All engine wiring sorted out, and everything works and verified

Being over 40 years old, this CJ5 is in great mechanical shape. There are several nicks, and paint defects and with minimal rust (please see pictures). -This is a California truck, and has a current/clear CA title. The registration & plates will expire on 5/14/14, and will cost $19 to register after that date in CA. -The paint has been touched up, but it's an older metallic paint it is hard to match, but it is close. The hood has some clear coat damage, but still looks good. The cowl vent has a chrome blank panel installed, and the blue paint has chipped on the chrome. On the passenger/drivers side there are a couple bubbles under the paint near the jeep logo. -The transmission reverse gear synchros grind when going in reverse sometimes, but I added new fluid additives so it may go away. The synchros got worn because the previous owner used it as a parking brake. -The brakes pull slightly to the right initially, I believe it's a front pad issue since the previous owner drove this Jeep with the master cylinder/booster working. -Being a California Jeep, there isn't much rust for the age. The passenger side front tub support shows some old rust damage, but it's doing it's job (there's a photo from underneath)Typical small surface rust near the exterior reinforcement panel on both sides. These are all to be expected from a vehicle of this age. The CJ5 was made for utility so it's amazing these trucks survived at all! Please contact me if you have any questions of if you want to take a test drive. Also, please email me if you would like more photos (eBay will only allow 12 of my photos per auction).

Sunday Drive: Trucks and SUVs of all shapes and sizes
Sun, Nov 5 2017The American automotive marketplace is dominated by trucks and SUVs, and so was the last week of coverage on Autoblog. By far, the most popular story of the week was our First Drive of the 2018 Lincoln Navigator. It may look like an old-school lumberer, but in reality Lincoln's flagship is a thoroughly modern, turbocharged-V6-powered, three-row, luxury people mover. The Jeep Wrangler is the world's most recognizable vehicle. So it's no surprise that the next version looks a whole heck of a lot like the last one, and the one before. It's all in the details, which is why we were so excited when Jeep decided to unleash a trio of images showing both two- and four-door Wranglers for us to dissect ahead of the SUV's official debut at the L.A. Auto Show later this year. Past that, spy photos of the next Chevy Silverado and Ram 1500 were predictably popular. See both of those below, and the cap it all off, check out the entire week's worth of SEMA coverage – including the bonkers Hennessey VelociRaptor 6x6 – in our mega image gallery at the bottom of this post. Enjoy! As always, tune in to Autoblog next week for a front-row seat to all the happenings worth following in the automotive industry. 2018 Lincoln Navigator First Drive | From black sheep to flagship 2018 Jeep Wrangler revealed: First photos released before L.A.

Dream Cruising in three Jeep concept cars
Thu, Aug 20 2015Those of you that have attended the yearly Woodward Dream Cruise, know that the rolling car show is many things to many people. A chance to pull the Corvette out of the garage; a time to ogle rare models you've never yet seen in the metal; a weekend for drinking a cold one with friends and simply taking in the festivities. But for our roving editor Brandon Turkus, this year was a chance to cruise in some concept Jeeps that most people will never see, let alone drive. As Turkus aptly points out from the start, Woodward isn't exactly Moab. But wheeling the off-roaders is nevertheless an eye-opening experience; they may not be upcoming products, but these Jeeps tease out a lot we'd like to see from the brand in the future. You can find these mini Short Cut reviews above, and below, but here's a recap of what Turkus got to drive. Jeep Wrangler Staff Car Concept This one's a proper salute to the Jeep military service vehicles of yore. It's an open-air concept based on the four-door Wrangler, with tons of heritage design cues. It looks old, but we promise, it's totally new. It's got basic steel wheels, a stretched canvas roof, bench seats, a painted steel floor, a built-in cooler that accommodates up to 85 cans, and is painted in an iconic Sandstorm color. When the going gets tough, the Staff Car can handle it with aplomb, thanks to the Jeep Performance Parts two-inch lift kit, Fox shocks, Dana 44 axles, and the Wrangler's 3.6-liter V6. Jeep Chief Concept This Wrangler-based concept is an excellent tribute to the classic, fullsize Jeep Cherokee from the 1970s. It's painted in a vintage Ocean Blue color, with a white, "French Bread" roof. There's also a custom razor grille (something made famous on the original Wagoneer), removable sides, chrome bumpers, and classic-looking, 17-inch wheels. Inside, there's surfer-inspired pink, blue, and white cloth mixed with leather trim, with more fun details like a Rosewood front passenger grab handle and tiki-look shift handle. Of course, this thing looks to be truly capable off-road, too, with a two-inch lift kit, Fox shocks, Dana 44 axles at the front and rear, and a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 underhood. Jeep Wrangler Africa A take on the Wrangler Unlimited, painted in Desert Tan, and powered by a 2.8-liter diesel engine. It looks killer, with 17-inch, body-colored steel wheels wrapped in 35-inch BF Goodrich Mud Terrain tires. There's a two-inch lift kit, Dana 44 axles, and Fox shocks.
