For Sale: 1974 Jeep CJ5 in Lavergne, Tennessee

Here's a bold-looking 4x4 with V8 growling power, four-on-the-floor, plenty of off-road prowess, a winch up front, and a cool patina style. So you know this 1974 Jeep CJ5 Renegade is the right kind of machine for those who love to have a little bit of everything.

This CJ really impresses you with its overall level of preservation and presentation. The factory-correct orange paint has a survivor kind of quality, and that hint of patina always looks killer on Jeeps. Especially since this also has the right vintage style with the classic Renegade graphics package. But you can also instantly see there has been plenty invested in making this an extra capable 4x4. There's a sturdy steel front bumper with Hella lights and a classic-style Warn winch. The side has the proper Renegade fender flares, and they match the upgraded rocker guards and 15-inch Cragar off-road wheels. On the back is a full-size spare on a swing-away mount and a proper trailer hitch. All these dark details look particularly good, and you even have a full soft top and door done in black to go with the full package.

The interior has some cool classic pieces, like the color-matched steel dash, high-back vinyl bucket seats, and even some classic off-road badges. But there has also been a solid investment here in upgrades. For example, you now have a more comprehensive roll cage installed, and there are modern Bluetooth speakers mounted to it. Plus, the rugged liner paint on the floor and a grippy Grant sports steering wheel seem like the right additions for those who want to have a good time out in nature.

The 304 cubic-inch V8 is the correct spec for this Jeep, but you can also see a quality investment that takes it far from stock. This includes a Holley four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock intake, finned Edelbrock valve covers, a large aluminum radiator, updated distributor/coil, and long tube headers feed the growling side pipes. The four-speed manual transmission gives you proper control no matter if you're on the street or trail. And when you do take this one off-road, the lifted suspension, all-terrain tires, and two-speed 4x4 transfer case combine to deliver that true Jeep go-anywhere prowess. Power steering, power brakes, and front discs are all there for an easier anytime driving package.

This CJ does a great job of mixing classic style with all the best upgrades. And you know the price for a well-done classic like this can't be beat. Call today!!!
