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.

NHTSA investigates FCA for SUVs that roll out of Park

Tue, Aug 25 2015

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening a preliminary evaluation into the 2014 Dodge Durango and 2014-205 Jeep Grand Cherokee after 14 complaints of the SUVs rolling out of Park. An estimated 408,000 of them could be affected, if a recall is necessary. All of the current complaints submitted to NHTSA about the issue concern the Grand Cherokee, and the claims allege that the SUV can roll out of Park whether or not the engine is running. Some folks report that they check the indicator each time because the gear sometimes fails to engage. Among the 14 cases, there are five accounts of crashes and three injuries, including a situation with someone allegedly being rolled over. NHTSA's preliminary evaluations are meant to investigate "the scope, frequency, and safety-related consequence" of a reported problem. They don't necessarily lead to a recall. Related Video: INVESTIGATION Subject : Unattended vehicle rollaway Date Investigation Opened: AUG 20, 2015 Date Investigation Closed: Open NHTSA Action Number: PE15030 Component(s): POWER TRAIN All Products Associated with this Investigation Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) DODGE DURANGO 2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 2014-2015 Details Manufacturer: Chrysler (FCA US LLC) SUMMARY: The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 14 complaints (VOQs) alleging that after being placed in Park the subject vehicles have then rolled away from their parked position. The unintended motion has occurred with both the engine off and the engine running. ODI has also identified EWR field report data related to the alleged defect. The model year 2014 and 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles are equipped with an electronic gear selector (shift-by-wire system). The gear selection is made by pressing the shifter-paddle forward or backwards; the shifter does not move along a gate path as with conventional gear selectors. A Preliminary Evaluation has been opened to asses the scope, frequency, and safety-related consequence of the alleged defect. The VOQs associated with the opening of this investigation are: 10733158, 10730952, 10683556, 10679497, 10583366, 10725429, 10715401, 10711893, 10676998, 10668651, 10662619, 10662308, 10605865, and 10567538.

Ford extends shutdown, Stellantis confirms layoffs due to chip shortage

Thu, Apr 22 2021

Ford and Stellantis this week announced new production cuts due to the global semiconductor shortage, with popular models including the Ford F-150 and Jeep Grand Cherokee facing cuts. Stellantis plans to temporarily lay off workers at one facility as production is curtailed.  According to Automotive News, Ford is extending shutdowns at some of its North American facilities into May. The Blue Oval has been forced to reduce or idle production of both its redesigned F-150 pickup and the popular Explorer due to the chip shortage. The Mustang, Transit, Edge, Lincoln Nautilus and Aviator will also continue to be affected. Stellantis is planning to temporarily lay off workers at a Jeep plant in Detroit during April and May due to a shortage of semiconductor chips. The company will cut two work crews at its Jefferson North plant in Detroit for three weeks starting April 26, then call them back and lay off a third crew from May 17 through the week of May 31, according to a schedule obtained by Bloomberg News. The plant on Detroit’s east side normally operates two shifts with three work crews six days a week to keep it running 20 hours a day. “Stellantis continues to work closely with our suppliers to mitigate the manufacturing impacts caused by the various supply chain issues facing our industry,” company spokeswoman Jodi Tinson said in a statement. “Due to the unprecedented global microchip shortage, Jefferson North will adjust its production schedule through the end of May.” Jefferson North employs about 4,800 hourly workers and makes the Jeep Grand Cherokee, the top-selling Jeep model last year, and the Dodge Durango SUV. A redesigned version of the Grand Cherokee is scheduled to start production in August, according to researcher AutoForecast Solutions. This article contains reporting from Bloomberg.
