1965 CJ5 Jeep. 4 cylinder Hurricane F4 - 134 cu in engine. 3 lever 4x4. Jeep has 1978 front and rear axles ( 3.54 - 1 ratio ) with front disc brakes and Warn hubs. This great swap makes the Jeep much more road friendly. Roll bar, plastic fuel tank. Transmission has been rebuilt with receipts. New : clutch, Smittybuilt seats, bikini top, rear springs, electric wipers. Tires and brakes are recent. Under dash gauges with mini tach. All lights work as they should, turn signals require turning off by hand. Speedometer is inop, but odometer works. Emergency brake works. Gas gauge sometimes hangs up. The CJ5 went thru an amateur restoration over the past couple of years by a retired gentleman that I recently purchased from. The lid to the tool box under passenger bucket has had a lock added, which was a great idea. The pans were replaced, with new steel being stitch welded in. This was done nicely. Nice fabricated steps. The tub and frame are solid. The paint is simply driver quality but fresh, respectable enough yet can enjoy without worrying about damage. Runs very good, might benefit from a carb rebuild but runs fine. Under the hood is pretty much original and very sanitary. I bought this for my wife and I to use up at our cottage for running around town / beach. I should have taken my wife with me when checking the CJ out. She has had knee replacements and can not get up and in as well as out comfortably so it is being resold. This is the ONLY reason for selling. Affordable fun, for a solid, respectable, mechanically sound vintage CJ5. Comes with an original owners manual as well as a Chilton repair manual.

I am extremely honest when selling a vehicle, and my feedback reflects this.The Jeeps reserve is exactly what I paid. Pictures to be posted later today.

Payment to be made by paypal or in person with cash only. 72 hrs for paypal payment. 5 days for in person cash payment.

Shipping would be the sellers responsibility both cost and arranging, but I will assist with the pickup of the CJ5.

I have the Jeep for sale locally as well, so reserve the right to end auction if early if need be.

On Jul-23-14 at 13:31:25 PDT, seller added the following information:

The CJ5 only comes with the new Bestop brand Bikini top. There is no full soft or hard top or doors. What you see in the pictures plus owners manual and a repair manual. Also have 2 new oil filters.

Airbag fault on 1M recalled Jeeps getting second look from NHTSA [UPDATE]

Mon, 02 Jun 2014

UPDATE: Here is the statement we received from Chrysler regarding NHTSA's query: "Chrysler Group LLC advised the National Highway Traffic Administration of the six reports and, in accordance with the Company's long-standing practice, is cooperating fully with the resulting investigation. Customer safety is paramount at Chrysler Group. Customers who are concerned may call 1-800-853-1403."
It appears that Jeep's repairs for nearly one million Grand Cherokees from 2002-2004 and Liberty models from 2002-2003 might not be over yet. The vehicles were first recalled in November 2012 because the front airbags could suddenly deploy without being in an accident. Now, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening a recall query into them because of reports of inadvertent activation on some already corrected vehicles.
The original problem affected over 919,000 vehicles worldwide, including 744,822 in the US, and was caused by a degrading circuit in the wires that control the airbags. In some cases the airbag warning light would come on just before the premature activation, but in other cases it would just happen. The automaker installed an "in-line jumper harness with an integrated electrical filter" meant to eliminate the power spikes believed to be the cause.

Jeep CEO a fan of pickup redux

Tue, Mar 10 2015

The idea of a Jeep pickup is a hardly a new concept. After all, putting a bed on the company's rugged off-roaders goes back to the '40s, not to mention the more recent Cherokee-based Comanche. There's a very slim chance that a truck could return to the lineup down the line if brand CEO Mike Manley gets his wish. "I remain a big fan of a Jeep pickup. I think we have history that says it belongs in our portfolio," Manley said to The Detroit News. However, there's no need to get any hopes up soon, because a truck doesn't get any mention in the brand's five-year plan. That puts the earliest possible introduction around 2019. Even Manley is tempering expectations. "At this moment and time, I have higher priorities. That doesn't mean to say that we don't work on it, we're not looking at it," he said to The Detroit News. The most likely candidate to support a future Jeep truck is the next-gen Wrangler, according to The News. The rest of FCA's pickups and SUVs are running at capacity, which makes slipping in another variant difficult. However, the future Wrangler is heavily rumored to get an expanded production facility in Toledo, OH, which could make things possible. Anonymous FCA insiders confirmed to Autoblog that the next-gen Wrangler would be offered with a 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 and eight-speed automatic. It's also reportedly using solid axles at the front and rear, a fixed windshield and an aluminum body. That could make for a very fun and practical off-roader. If reading all of this speculation gives you a twinge of deja vu, it should. After the Jeep Gladiator concept (pictured above), there were years of speculation about the brand bringing the pickup back. Even then the plan was for a compact truck to tackle that hole in the segment. It was even believed that the project had a green light for production seemingly with Sergio Marchionne's blessing. Then things were pushed back, and last year, the idea was officially quashed. Related Video:

Excavator in China bashes BMW and Jeep out of the way

Tue, Jun 2 2015

This Chinese construction site apparently has a zero tolerance policy towards obstacles getting in the way of work. When blocked by a Jeep and a BMW, the operator of this excavator pushes the two vehicles out of the way like they're toys. The Bimmer gets the brunt of the abuse, with the sedan getting lodged up against a fence. The exact context of this clip isn't entirely known, but The Mirror in Britain speculates the vehicles are illegally parked. But that doesn't explain why the excavator crashes through a gate later in the video. Also, this doesn't appear to be the case of a rogue operator taking out some frustrations, because a man with a walkie-talkie is leading the way and seemingly directing the destruction. Nonetheless, getting permission to knock these cars around was probably the highlight of this driver's day. News Source: The Mirror, AOL On BMW Jeep Crossover Videos Sedan
