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.

2014 Jeep Cherokee flaunts its new contemporary curves

Wed, 27 Mar 2013

Only slightly more than one month ago, undisguised (and less-than-flattering) shots of the all-new 2014 Jeep Cherokee were leaked online. Later that day, in an effort to suppress the uprising, Jeep countered with its own official photography offering us much clearer front and three-quarter views. We've been left to digest those pictures for weeks.
Now, mere hours before the fabric comes sliding off its newest mid-size sport-utility at its live reveal at the New York Auto Show, Jeep has released dozens of new images showing all four corners, plus a few interior shots, of its new Cherokee.

2013 AEV Brute Double Cab

Fri, 11 Jan 2013

These are the guys who bring an M777 howitzer to a knife fight. In terms of overall rugged utility, the all-new 2013 Brute Double Cab from American Expedition Vehicles (AEV) is about as overkill as they come, and we can't seem to get enough of the beasts that this company produces. Unlike most aftermarket firms, always striving to lower cost and increase volume (but at the expense of quality), Michigan-based AEV takes pride in its OEM-quality design, engineering, manufacturing and testing. Everything is as good, or better, than the stuff from the factory, and they have been doing it this way for more than 15 years.
Launched at the recent 2012 SEMA show was the 2013 AEV Brute Double Cab. Its debut marked the company's expansion to a four-door Brute on the newer JK platform (drawing inspiration from the Land Rover Defender 130). I recently spent a few hours with the new truck in sunny Southern California, though unfortunately, due to time constraints, I was limited to pavement-only driving impressions.
