Vehicle Description
Cool upgrades meet with some original style, and it's all offered
at an exceptional price. That's what makes this 1978 Jeep CJ5
Renegade such a hot ticket.
This Jeep is distinctive from the first moment you lay eyes on it.
The fresh electric blue paint instantly conveys the modern
investment in this classic icon. The more modern black Renegade
trim is the perfect match for the darkly painted floors this 4x4
has to offer. It includes the upgraded wheels and tough
diamond-plated rear panel covers. But more than just added
aggression, you'll also enjoy the original touches that a true
upgraded Renegade package offers, like the fender flares and roll
bar. And of course, the round headlights and seven-slot grille
instantly connect you to all the history a Jeep has to offer.
That's why these look just as good driving down High Street as they
do exploring the high lands.
Inside is more great merging of the new and iconic features. The
modern exterior blue is continued on the classic dash that has the
oil and power gauges flanking the large central speedometer. This
is an earlier CJ5, so you get the classic design of a two-spoke
steering wheel. Plus, it has the sportier profile with the low back
bucket seats (headrests optional) that have recently been recovered
in a new durable vinyl. And the whole floor has been covered in a
tough liner paint, so looking good from a day out on the trails is
just a garden hose away.
This one is even nicely coordinated under the hood with the blue
painted motor and dark black components that nicely match the
interior and exterior. But more than just look great, the 258
cubic-inch inline-six motor is a long established powerplant for
Jeep that has proven its reliability, and continues to have easy
parts availability. Torquey and robust, this is the engine you want
pulling through daily traffic or the worst slop Mother Nature can
throw at you. The three-speed manual transmission feeds the
two-speed transfer case, and seriously beefy axles at both ends.
Tall gears and low range give it rock-crawling stability, but
thanks to the modern Dunlop Rover all-terrain tires and front disc
brakes, it's comfortable in the urban scene, too.
A cool all-American Jeep with some fun upgrades and plenty of
character. It's amazing you can get all of this for such a value
price. But a deal this nice doesn't wait for long, call today!!
