Vehicle Description
This 1959 Jeep CJ5 offers an iconic classic appearance with some
terrific upgrades you want in a go-anywhere 4x4. But while the
features are great, we already know the value price has you
sold.
This CJ already has a striking first impression. A ruby red body
combines with the black windshield, roll bar, fender flares, side
mirrors, tubular side steps, and wheels to create a cool two-tone
style. And the chrome bumpers add even more distinction. Plus, this
one seems to sit a little taller than the rest. But more than just
appearance, you're going to be attracted to this one, because the
iconic shape is built from a fiberglass body. This means you don't
worry about body corrosion whenever you get into the deepest water
traps around. And if the spray is coming from above (or you just
feel like buttoning up) there's a full hardtop and doors that come
with the sale, too.
Inside is the rugged interior you expect from a CJ. Still, this has
some nice investments like newer seats with good padding and
weather-resistant vinyl. Plus, there's a full gauge panel, working
heater, and a Hurst shifter. And while the wood-rimmed Cadillac
steering offers a nice tilt column, its GM connection hints at
what's under the hood.
Few people remember that the Buick V6 was available in the CJ5 for
a few years. That's why this motor fits so easily into the engine
bay. And thanks to upgrades like a Holley four-barrel carburetor,
headers, and an aluminum radiator, this already strong motor has
enhanced power and durability. You're in complete control of this
powerhouse thanks to the three-speed manual transmission. As a true
Jeep, the two-speed 4x4 transfer case combines with the short
wheelbase and good ground clearance to really let you get back to
nature. There's even a trailer hitch to take extra provisions with
you. But those days when you're just on a grocery run, the power
steering, front disc brakes, and all-purpose Cooper Discoverer H/T
tires make this a fine city slicker, too.
Classic Jeep looks and very handy upgrades combine at quite an
affordable price. So don't let's this total package deal slip away.
