1980 Jeep CJ-5 - 6 cylinder - 4x4- soft top - soft doors - 33 in tires with lift. I purchased this Jeep on Ebay in 2006 with the intent of off roading and rock climbing. Before I could do any of that my wife and I had our first child. So it is has been on asphalt ever since. Occasionally driven with the top off in the summer. I realize I will never get to use it the way I wanted to so I am selling it. The engine is not original and it has what I estimate to be 140,000 miles on it. The odometer is not accurate. The person I bought it from used it as a rock climber and it has the suspension set up for that. It has a custom roll cage. It runs very well. I recently had a new starter put in. It is a great Jeep that could be driven as is or improved upon. Things that I know are wrong with it: There is a small exhaust leak that I was told by the mechanic has been rpaired as well as it can be. It will soon be time to redo the suspension and shocks if you intend to make this a true off road monster. There is no radio ( I will include the one I purchased - still in the box). The framing for the soft top has some pieces that should be replaced (I have included those replacement pieces). There is some typical rust for a 34 year old vehicle. There is a crack in the rear right brake light casing. There is a tear in the rubber casing around the gear shift. The windshield wiper switch is tricky and should be replaced.
Extras included: Bikini top Jack Stereo (in box) Replacement soft top framing
I will answer any additional questions as best I can. When I picked this Jeep up in 2006, I drove it from Albequerque, NM to Vail, CO. It can be driven that far but I would suggest you pull it or trailer it if you are going to go that far. I will require a Paypal deposit of $1,000.00 within 48 hours of the end of the auction. |

Chrysler adding 200 jobs at Ohio Jeep Wrangler plant
Fri, 15 Mar 2013Chrysler is betting that the Jeep Wrangler will continue its strong sales surge as it continues to push the legendary brand out across the globe. The Auburn Hills automaker is reportedly adding 200 workers at the Toledo, Ohio plant that builds the Wrangler. What's more, those new hires will be at their posts quickly - they'll be on the job by April 1. Of those 200 workers, 130 employees will be there to relieve those who need breaks.
Why do they need so many relief workers? The Toledo Jeep Complex is currently working at a torrid pace with two ten-hour shifts. A third shift has been ruled out for the moment because of a production botttleneck - the plant's paint shop is already maxed out. According to Reuters, Wrangler production in 2012 cleared 200,000 units, and US sales were up by 16 percent.
Another part of the Toledo plant is presently down as Chrysler retools the line to build Jeep's divisively styled Liberty replacement, the Cherokee (seen in our gallery below). Production for the new model is scheduled to begin toward the end of May.
Watch this 9-year-old drive Jeep Wrangler off-road [w/poll]
Wed, 28 May 2014This nine-year-old girl might be better at rock crawling than some people twice her age. But is it worth putting her in danger to do it? According to her father on the Jeep Experience Facebook page, her name is Faith, and she has been offroading with her family since she was two. At nine years old, she's now driving her dad's Jeep over the rocks by herself.
As you can see she's belted in and under her father's direct supervision and guidance. She shows immense confidence for someone her age and follows her dad's instructions on exactly what to do. Although, this could still be a very dangerous situation if something went wrong.
Previously, we saw a similar video with a six-year-old on a motorcycle driving on public roads through the desert. Voters decided by only a six-point margin that the adult should be in trouble for letting the kid ride the bike. Here, we have a slightly older child driving a vehicle off road. Where do you fall in this case? Is it still wrong to hand over control to a child? Let us know in the poll below and scroll down to watch the video.
Stellantis and Foxconn's new joint venture will focus on connectivity
Wed, May 19 2021MILAN — Carmaker Stellantis and TaiwanÂ’s Foxconn announced plans to develop a jointly operated automotive supplier focusing on technology to make vehicles more connected, including artificial intelligence-based applications and 5G communications. Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares said the services that will be developed through the tie-up “will mark the next great evolution of our industry,” alongside fully electrified and hybrid powertrains. The deal brings together Stellantis, the worldÂ’s 4th-largest automaker formed this year by the merger of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and PSA Peugeot, and Foxconn, a major supplier of iPhones. The companies said the venture would focus on such services as infotainment, the integration of telecommunications and computer systems, artificial intelligence-based applications, 5G communications, e-commerce channels and smart cockpit integration. The companies announced a non-binding memorandum of understanding to form a 50-50 joint venture called Mobile Drive, which will be based in the Netherlands and function as an automotive supplier also to other carmakers. The new venture will combine advanced consumer electronics, Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI) to create new services “that will exceed customer expectations,” the companies said in a release. “Customers today and, in the future, demand and expect ever-increasing software-driven and creative solutions to connect the drivers and passengers with the vehicle inside and out,Â’Â’ Foxconn Chairman Young Liu.
