Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this iconic 1980 Jeep CJ-5, a
timeless classic that embodies the spirit of adventure and rugged
off-road capability. This particular CJ-5 is powered by the
"Hurricane"-branded version of the GM Iron Duke I4 engine, renowned
for its durability. Paired with an SR4 close-ratio, four-speed
manual transmission, this Jeep delivers a truly engaging driving
experience.
Under the hood, the Hurricane engine provides a drivetrain
perfectly suited for both on and off-road adventures. The
close-ratio SR4 transmission ensures smooth and precise gear
shifts, enhancing the driving experience whether you're navigating
beach-town streets or tackling challenging trails. This Jeep's
engine was rebuilt at 87,934 miles by Jennings Auto, ensuring it
runs and drives exceptionally well.
The exterior of this CJ-5 is finished in striking Wimbledon White,
which highlights its classic Jeep styling. The body-colored
dashboard adds a touch of vintage charm, while the black seats
provide a comfortable and practical interior. This Jeep's
suspension has been thoroughly refurbished around the time of the
engine rebuild, contributing to its excellent ride quality and
handling. With over $16,000 of documented work dating back to 2010,
this CJ-5 presents itself beautifully, both in terms of aesthetics
and driveability.
The Jeep CJ-5 has a storied history, originating from the military
Willys Jeep used during World War II. Introduced to the public in
1954, the CJ-5 quickly became a favorite among off-road enthusiasts
for its rugged construction and exceptional versatility. Over the
years, the CJ-5 saw various updates and improvements, including the
adoption of the "Hurricane" engine in the late 1970s, which added a
new level of reliability and power. This 1980 model represents the
final years of CJ-5 production, making it a highly sought-after
example of a legendary off-road vehicle.
