Classic 1974 Jeep CJ5 Renegade
AMC 304 V8 - 3 Speed - Original Engine and Transmission
This is a 3 day auction and will end soon.
This Jeep is a daily driver and is very dependable, turns heads everywhere I go and is fun and easy to drive. I keep it indoors when not being driven and take good care of it. I love this Jeep and I'm only selling it because we need the money to grow our business and that's a priority right now.
I have listed it for sale locally in Denison, Texas and I reserve the right to end the auction early if sold.
Details:
All metal body - Very Solid
Full Roll Cage
This Jeep was not and is not rusted (only surface on suspension parts, etc.. where fresh paint may have chipped off while being driven - Very common for a daily driver.
During the restoration, both front fenders, hood and grille were replaced with brand new Factory Replacement Parts from AMD Metal for the following body parts:
New Left and Right Fenders
New Grille
New Hood
These body parts are new and straight, factory coated to prevent corrosion or rust and looks great.
Front Floor Pans are original and have not been patched.
They are not rusted and are in great shape.
Rear Floor pans are also in good shape, however there are small imperfections (dents - dings) in the metal where it looks like they carried something in the back. They still look great and are solid.
New Parts:
Brand New Holley 650 CFM - Electric Choke
New Plugs and High Voltage Wires
New High Voltage Coil
New Valve Covers
New Alternator and belt
New Radiator (Runs cool, does not overheat)
Engine:
Original AMC 304 V8
Starts very very easy.
Idles great
Runs great - lots of power.
AMC 304 Long Tube Headers with Jeep CJ5 Side Exhaust. Looks Great and Sounds Amazing. These were extremely popular back in the 70's and I know why.
Transmission: Factory 3-Speed Manual. Shifts perfect and easy. Clutch works great. No problems.
Transfer Case: 4x4 works good. The transfer case shifts into HIGH and LOW with ease.
Electrical:
Headlights work (high and low beam)
Tail lights and brake lights work. New LED tail/brake lights - Very bright and safe.
All turn signals work.
Hazard lights work
Wipers work (2 speed) New Wiper Motor and wiper transmission linkage.
New exterior lights (park lights, turn signals, side markers)
Horn works
New Windshield and rubber
New AM/FM Radio with dash mounted speaker (Radio works good)
Factory OEM Jeep Steel Wheels - Powder coated White.
4 Factory hub caps in great condition (rare and hard to find in this shape)
New BFG All Terrain Tires
Comes with 5th Powder Coated Steel Wheel and extra hub cap if you want it for a rear mounted spare.
New Racing Seats - very comfortable and safe.
New Seat Belts
The front suspension was recently aligned and this Jeep goes very straight down the road. Rare for a CJ5 with such a short wheel base.
New Heavy Duty Front Bumper
New Brake Master Cylinder
New VERY Heavy Duty Custom Rear Bumper with receiver (not yet installed) Comes with Jeep.
New Rear Drive Shaft and U-Joints - I had a heavy duty drive shaft specially built by a drive shaft shop and machinist. Has been balanced and works great.
Ammo Box Center Console (Works great)
New 8000lb Warn Winch (works great and has remote)
New Orange Paint - Old paint taken down to metal, etch primed then sealed and painted right
I used Armor Liner that was tinted Orange like body color for Roll Cage, Dash and firewall
(Tough as nails and will not rust)
Black Armor Liner on floor pans.
4 New Fender Flares
What else?
This Jeep comes with a CJ5 Renegade Decal / Stripe Kit that is correct for 1974.
I have a factory Jeep tailgate that is sandblasted and ready to be installed to fill the hole in the back.
I have a new CJ5 (replacement) heater motor and switch that needs to be bolted up to the firewall.
The newly installed carburetor needs to be tuned jetted down 1-2 sizes to run perfect. It runs great as it is and I drive it every day, and I would drive it across country like it is, but it needs to be tuned. There is a very slight lag when you barley press on accelerator. If you press down about 1/4 to 1/2 or all the way down....it has TONS of power and get's on it great, just hesitates under very slight acceleration. It's just a brand new carb and needs to be tuned.
Needs a fuel sending unit installed.
The Speedo is not accurate and the fuel gage does not work (needs a sending unit).
I like using my Iphone for the speedometer (downloaded a GPS speedometer App for Free) and stuck it to windshield with Velcro - very accurate and comes with NAVIGATION.
As the photos will show, I have turned the steering wheel around in order to give me more room, however I do have a very nice (flat) custom wood grain steering wheel that will go with the Jeep if you prefer to have that one instead. Personally, I like the one that's on it.
This Jeep is ready for Car Shows, the Trail or your daily commute to work.
It's located in Denison, Tx and can be driven and inspected anytime.
I have a clear Texas Title in my name and it currently registered, inspected and insured in Texas.
This is not a quick flip vehicle, it's a great Jeep and I hate to see it go.

Thank You for you interest.

Winning the AFC Championship game to guarantee a spot in the Super Bowl would be a pretty major accomplishment for most people in a day. However, just hours after the victory, New England Patriots defensive tackle Vince Wilfork showed what he could do off the field, when he helped save a woman from an overturned car. Though, the player remained modest about what happened. Wilfork and his wife were driving home late at night when they spotted a flipped Jeep near Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, MA. Surveillance video showed Wilfork pulling over and running to the vehicle's aid to be among the first on the scene. Finding a woman trapped inside, Wilfork told her, "Don't panic," and according to Massachusetts State Police, the 325-pound player simply reached his arm into the vehicle and lifted the woman out to save her. She was later charged with driving under the influence. Hear Wilfork's description of what happened in the video above.

On this week's podcast, Mike Austin and David Gluckman are in a huddle room (again), because the studio was already taken (again). We talk about the all-wheel-drive Dodge Challenger GT (again), as well as the Jeep Wrangler, Maserati Levante, Miata RF (again), and then David waxes poetic on mediocre rental cars (or similar). The episode wraps up with the traditional doling out of Spend My Money buying advice, with some input from an S2000 owner on advice discussed last time. The rundown is below. Remember, if you have a car-related question you'd like us to answer or you want buying advice of your very own, send a message or a voice memo to podcast at autoblog dot com. (If you record audio of a question with your phone and get it to us, you could hear your very own voice on the podcast. Neat, right?) And if you have other questions or comments, please send those too.

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is recalling a total of 747,817 vehicles in the US in two separate campaigns recently added to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration database.
The first one covers about 434,581 units of the Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger, Challenger, Durango, and Jeep Grand Cherokee from the 2011-2014 model years with electric hydraulic power steering, the 3.6-liter V6 engine and a 160 amp alternator, according to FCA. In the affected vehicles, it's possible for the alternator to fail without warning and possibly cause the car to stall. According to the documentation submitted to NHTSA, the automaker began investigating the problem in August 2014 and has found possible evidence of one crash caused by the failures but no known injuries.
Customers will begin receiving notification about the recall next month, and obviously the repairs will be done at no cost to them.
