Vehicle Description
Huge off-road 4x4 prowess, serious fuel-injected small block power
under the hood, and even cold-blowing A/C means someone made all
the right investments in this 1982 Jeep CJ5. So all that's left is
for you to enjoy all the benefits of this enhanced go-anywhere
machine.
This has the full midnight kind of attitude that announces it's a
mean machine. But there's something more going on here, too.
There's a level of thoughtfulness within the intimidation. For
example, the black paint has a deep gloss that comes from a quality
investment later in life. So this one not only has a shine that
attracts attention out on a sunny day at the lake, but also there's
an added sophistication that would look good rolling thorough
downtown on a warm summer night. Black fender flares and a black
roll bar give it a Renegade style appearance. And it's not just
that the lights were blacked out as part of this dark attitude, but
the headlights were also upgraded to LEDs that are useful no matter
where you are when night falls. For that extra touch of class,
there's brightwork on the bumpers, side mirrors, and rugged (but
elegant) Mickey Thompson wheels.
A proper Jeep is meant to be open to the world, and so the
investments here are done to maximize it. The entire inner tub is
fortified with liner paint, the rear bench is a durable vinyl, and
you have deep BF Goodrich rubber mats up front. Plus, those newer
Corbeau leather bucket seats up front with proper seatbelts are the
ideal mix of practical and comfortable. There are more great
upgrades, like a lockbox armrest center console and the radio is a
modern AM/FM/CD unit with Bluetooth. And while nature often
provides the best breezes, we know you'll love supplementing them
with cold-blowing air conditioning. And that digital readout
mounted in the middle of the dash let you know that you'll love
what's under the hood, too.
The original motor in the CJ5 was good, but this is the upgrade we
all wish we had: 350 cubic inches of Chevy V8 power. This nearly
bulletproof powerplant is almost infinitely upgradeable, which is
why it already has a full Edelbrock suite with the black valve
covers, matching air topper, and a performance intake. And the FAST
electronic fuel injection system is an awesome way to dial-in added
power and consistency to this beefy V8. Plus, the polished shorty
headers add to both the style and power of this motor. The overall
package has the tidy look of a solid investment, and the way this
one fires up and runs proves its more than just for show. Jeeps are
off-road kings, so the four-speed manual transmission is linked to
a two-speed transfer case for true 4x4 ability. The lift kit gives
the suspension plenty of travel when it really counts, and the BF
Goodrich Mud-Terrain tires are engineered to find traction on any
surface. Stopping is also well in hand with front disc brakes. So
you have a well-done all-around driver.
Powerful, rugged, and loaded, this Jeep is the perfect classic for
someone who loves adventure but doesn't need to give it all up to
find one. After all, capability and comfort make for the best
harmony. Call today!!!
