Description for Jeep CJ 5 1980

Frame Off Restored Golden Eagle Themed CJ5 304 V8 4 speed Lifted Suspension /// Wrapping Levi's-themed interior and a bored 304 V8/4-speed powertrain in timeless Golden Eagle aesthetics, this all-American CJ-5 is one of the coolest classics on the market! Nearly every iconic Jeep has a following, but the legendary CJ is arguably the most sought after 4x4 of all time. Introduced in 1954 as a more civilian-friendly unit, the CJ-5 was billed as "the universal Jeep" that could serve... as "the world's most useful vehicle". This 1980 model wraps all that worldly swagger in a detailed, ground-up restoration that, according to its professional restorer, is founded on solid, one-owner sheetmetal. Hoist the hood and you'll find 304 cubic inches of proven AMC power that, thanks to a comprehensive rebuild, sports a professional .030 overbore. Power meets the pavement through a reliable 4-speed transmission, which rides between a professionally rebuilt transfer case and professionally rebuilt 10 and 12-bolt axles. That drivetrain rolls on a powder-coated frame that's stretched over factory springs and spry Rancho shocks. That frame is stopped by a traditional combination of disc and drum brakes. Exhaust flows through throaty side pipes. And at the corners of the floor, gold steelies twist a quartet of 31x10.50R15 BF Goodrich All-Terrain T/As around quality Warn hubs. Inside this classic you'll find an airy cockpit that's clean, tight and squared away thanks to Kirk's Kustom Upholstery of Corryton, Tennessee. $800 worth of familiar Levi's buttons adorns the bucket seat interior that provide enough comfort for four adults. Front and center, a Jeep-branded dash frames rebuilt factory telemetry. The driver spins a tilting Jeep steering wheel. And everyone stays safe thanks to a Bestop-padded roll bar. Sporting a solid body, timeless paint, trick vinyl and a stout drivetrain, this sweet Jeep literally has it all! Call, click or visit for more information.
