1978 Jeep CJ-5 For Sale
The 1978 Jeep CJ5 offered here blends classic off-road heritage
with tasteful upgrades and a striking custom finish. Power comes
from a 360ci V8 equipped with MSD Blaster ignition, Edelbrock
intake manifold, Edelbrock carburetor, and long-tube headers
feeding into side pipes. Cooling is managed by a high-performance
aluminum radiator, and the engine is paired with a 3-speed manual
transmission.
The exterior features a fiberglass tub refinished in a fresh burnt
orange paint, accented by chrome front and rear bumpers, grille,
mirrors, and trim. A lift kit provides clearance for 35-inch tires
mounted on polished Mickey Thompson Classic MT wheels. Braking is
handled by front discs and rear drums, with a 3.55 gear ratio in
the axles.
Inside, the cabin is clean and well-appointed, with upholstery and
carpet in excellent shape. A Kenwood Bluetooth head unit drives a
Kicker sound system powered by a 4-channel 60-watt amplifier,
adding modern convenience to this vintage Jeep.
This CJ5 combines period-correct character with upgraded
performance, a fresh look, and practical enhancements, ready for
use on or off the road.
