Selling a clean(for its age), VERY solid CJ5 with a strong running AMC 360 and T-150 3 spd trans that gets this thing going if you hit it. Other than nicks and whatnot of jeep this age, there is no rust to speak of. I know jeeps fairly well and know where they rust,( under the roll bar feet, at the seat belt mounts, rear sill etc), and this doesn't have it, its solid. There were some small pin holes under the foot boards but nothing to speak of. The body to frame mounts are solid, not collapsing rust.
It hasn't been cut up and butchered, there isn't rats nests of old wiring under the hood. They are getting harder to find in this condition. This jeep came from the south and I don't think it spent any time on the jersey salty roads.
Has a nice custom rollbar, overhead speakers, frame mounted swing out tire carrier, aftermarket air controls, lots of nice little things. Its not perfect, it will need some things looked at, like the radio, speedo is temperamental (comes with a brand new speedo and gauge cluster and cable if you want it).
Quirky electrics are good, headlights, turn signals, breaks, high beams etc. Like I said, many times on older jeeps those annoying gremlins are a mess.
You can go buy a swiss cheese rust bucket that you are going to hack away at, or you can pick this up and go, tinker on the little things.
Qualifies for antique plates-- no inspection and insurance is about $100 a year.
Thats all I got, please ask away. Come see it if you want(but please come if you say you are).
Thanks.

2014 Jeep Patriot and Compass ditch CVT for six-speed auto
Mon, 07 Jan 2013It was reported in Automotive News a few months ago, but a new report on Allpar.com adds some details to news that the 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot will get a six-speed automatic to replace the CVTs they currently use. According to a tip provided to Allpar, the 2014 models will begin production in March and be on sale sometime in the summer. The Jatco-sourced CVT in use until now - Jatco is owned by Nissan and Mitsubishi - has been often criticized, and many won't be sad to see it go.
The incoming six-speed automatic is said to be an all-wheel-drive cog-swapper that's the work of Hyundai and Magna and has been paired with the DynaMax AWD system used in the Hyundai ix35 and Kia Sportage. It won't be the only Chrysler product using a transmission with ties to Hyundai: the six-speed automatic in the Dodge Dart comes from Powertech, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hyundai. With the Patriot and Compass said to be driving down the trail for the last time this year, it will be a short run for the new tranny and the rumored addition of a backup camera and power rear liftgate on the Compass.

Jeep rear-mounted fuel tank controversy
Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango to lose color options temporarily
Wed, 19 Nov 2014In the market for a Jeep Grand Cherokee or Dodge Durango? Well, if you fancy a more expressive color for your new SUV, you'd better get your order in, or plan on waiting until well into 2015.
The SUVs will be limited to just four monochromatic shades - black, white, silver and gray - until at least February, thanks to an upgrade to the paint shop at the two vehicles' Jefferson North factory. For the Grand Cherokee, that means it's losing more than half its color palette while the Durango is dropping two-thirds of its color catalog.
The loss of colors is inconvenient, but the upgrade will have a slightly bigger effect on the overall supply of SUVs, as Chrysler will need to end its relentless build pace at the factory for a three-week shutdown starting on December 22. The good news for fans of the SUVs is that once the work is completed, we should see a gradual expansion of the color palettes for both the Durango and Grand Cherokee, beyond even what's offered now.
