1978 Jeep CJ5 Four Wheel Drive in Excellent Condition.

65,000 miles.

I have over $3,500.00 of receipts from the last two years.

When I purchased it, the Jeep was leaking oil very badly

from the rear main seal. My mechanic said the seal was

dried out from sitting for so long in the previous seller's

garage. Once the oil leaking problem was solved, the Jeep

has been a pleasure to drive. My mechanic repainted the

oil pan (it looks perfect), but I told him not to paint the valve

cover because I wanted it to stay original. The underside

of the Jeep is beautiful, with only very tiny spots of rust in

minor places.

The armor-plating was installed before I owned it, and was

not put on to hide any rust, but to reinforce the body and to

make it look cool. There is no rust underneath the armor-plating

and it can be removed very easily.

16 inch Eagle wheels with a spare off-road tire and Eagle wheel.

I unbolted the spare tire and carrier off of the back of the Jeep

to make it easier to access the tailgate. It also comes with a

large, steel basket to carry coolers, etc. which gets inserted into

the trailer hitch sleeve.

It has a wonderful three speed, manual transmission that is geared

very nicely for driving. I have never had it on the beach, and the

previous owner never took it on the beach either. It has always

been garaged.

The soft top is not in good condition (the plastic windows have

yellowed and cracked, but the side doors are in excellent condition

(see picture of doors).

It has a new gas tank, new hoses, brake lines and other small

improvements.

I just purchased a brand-new Best-Top bikini top for it, and it

can be put on or removed in seconds. It fits very well, and

does a great job of protection. I like it much more than the full soft top.

This is the first CJ5 I have ever owned, and despite the lift kit and

large tires, it rides much better than I expected. It is very original

and has always been adult-owned.

Reserve price is under $5,000.00.

This Jeep is really fun to drive (I drive it to work almost everyday),

and people love it wherever I take it.

Serious bidders can call me at: (631) 513-9508 with any questions.

The Jeep is for sale locally and is sold in "as-is" condition.

I reserve to end the auction early, and bidders are encouraged to

inspect the Jeep before they bid on it. The CJ5 is located in

East Hampton, New York.

Thank you.

2015 Ford F-150 named Truck of Texas, Lincoln and Jeep also awarded at Truck Rodeo

Tue, 14 Oct 2014

The Ford Motor Company has a lot of reasons to celebrate after winning eight categories in this year's Texas Auto Writers Association's annual Truck Rodeo. Most important among them, the Blue Oval's latest 2015 Ford F-150 earned the prestigious Truck of Texas award, ending the Ram 1500's two-year winning streak. The 2015 Lincoln MKC also grabbed the honor as the CUV of Texas, and Ford was named Truck Line of Texas.
FoMoCo even took trophies for best technology with its extensive use of aluminum on its latest F-Series and best commercial vehicle for the new Transit 250. It wasn't a total sweep, though, because the Jeep Grand Cherokee grabbed the title of the SUV of Texas for the fifth straight time.
This year's event put 60 auto writers in 75 pickups, SUVs and crossovers and challenged them to find the best in a plethora of categories. All of the winners are listed below, and scroll down to read the full announcements from the Texas Auto Writers Association and Ford.

Jeep shows off Moab Easter Safari concepts crawling the red rocks

Thu, 28 Mar 2013

While most brands are busy showing off in New York, Jeep headed out to Moab for the Easter Jeep Safari with the company's fleet of 2013 concepts. This year saw the Grand Cherokee Trailhawk II, Wrangler Mopar Recon, Wrangler Stitch, Wrangler Sand Trooper II, Wrangler Flattop and Wrangler Slim Concepts tackle the rocks and sand, and Jeep was kind enough to bring along a camera crew to film the machines rolling over a few obstacles. The result is the video below, though don't expect to see too much hardcore off road action.
Instead, the quick clip features more than a few interviews with Jeep executives, including Jeep Head of Product Design Mark Allen, explaining what makes the Easter Jeep Safari so important. You can check out the quick clip below for yourself, and be sure to thumb through our galleries of the concepts as well.

Jeep Wrangler by Vilner takes extreme luxury off-road

Mon, 20 Jan 2014

Vilner turned its customary and intensely luxurious attentions to a two-door Jeep Wrangler Sahara Unlimited back in 2012, following that up this year with its take on the four-door version. A coat of lustrous black paint outside is brightened up LED headlights, foglights and taillights and layers of chrome laid on the grille, mirrors, door handles and fuel filler cap.
Stance gets an injection of brawn from the 20-inch wheels, and they'll roll faster thanks to the power upgrade from 197 horsepower and 339 pound-feet of torque in the 2.8-liter diesel to 257 hp and 412 lb-ft.
Inside is furious red, with cross-stitched crimson leather and Alcantara demanding your focus. When you can look away from that, you'll find the raw metal parts painted black and again ornamented in minor applications of chrome. Feel free to feast on it in the high-res gallery above.
