Willys-Overland, makers of the original World War II military Jeep knew that with the War ending, they’d have to turn to civilian vehicles. Hence the arrival of the Jeep CJ series in 1944. The series progressed from CJ-1 to CJ-10A, in a production run that spanned 1944 and 1986, and by the time the Jeep CJ was replaced by the Wrangler, Jeep had built over 1.5 million examples. Hence, finding a Jeep CJ isn’t hard, but you’d better pick a fully-restored example, such as this 1966 Jeep CJ-5. The current owner says that the engine and gearbox have been rebuilt, with the engine packing less than 200 miles since then. Impressively, this car is entirely brand new! So, it’s basically a turn-key classic that’s waiting for a new owner.
This 1966 Jeep CJ-5 presents its purposeful and unmistakable silhouette in a suit of mid blue. Meanwhile, it’s got a new set of white wheels with new tires, and includes all those classic Jeep cues, such as the circular headlamps flanking a seven-bar grille, a short wheelbase with minimal overhangs, and an open-topped design. Accessing the interior of this 1966 Jeep CJ-5 is superbly easy because you can either open a door and step in, or just jump over the doors, or via the rear. Once you’re there, you’ll find black leather-upholstered seats and a minimalistic dashboard. A single dial communicates speed, engine coolant temperature and fuel level. You’ve also got levers for the manual gear shifter, as well as the transfer case. Behind the two seats is a fairly spacious cargo area that can also carry a couple of people in a pinch, although we’re not sure how legal that would be since there aren’t any seats here. If you plan to do this, installing some seats would be a good idea.
This 1966 Jeep CJ-5 gets its go-factor from a thrifty and dependable 225ci Dauntless V6 that is actually a Buick design. Power is sent to the wheels via a 3-speed manual transmission and transfer case. We’re also told that the brakes are new, ensuring that this 1966 Jeep CJ-5 stops as well as it goes.

As early as 1944, when World War II was reaching its tail end, the Willys-Overland Corporation started previewing a civilian version of the military Jeep. The civilian version would be nearly identical to the military one, with body-on-frame construction, rigid live axles, leaf springs, and part-time four-wheel drive. Called the CJ (Civilian Jeep) series, over 1.5 million were sold until 1986 when the Wrangler took over. This 1976 Jeep CJ-5 is one proud member of that massive family and is up for sale with a mere 15,000 miles under its belt. So, if you want to own and drive a classic American hero, here’s your chance to pick one up.
The Americans have always known how to build cars that are just a little more interesting and quirky than their foreign counterparts. And, when it comes to SUVs, Jeeps usually come to mind. This 1980 Jeep CJ-5, fully restored mind you, is a fine specimen of what rolled off of the American production lines during that period. While still reminiscent of the initial Willys Jeep design that dates back nearly 40 years before this, this CJ-5 incorporates a modern take on the classic Jeep design. Allowing the driver to have the full classic Jeep experience while enjoying the open-air cabin and V8 burble (Yes you read that right).
For years Jeep has been at the forefront of driving forward and exploring the great outdoors in confidence. But today the all-American manufacturer has another ace up its sleeve: performance SUVS. Built to be practical ways of getting about and putting sports car owners to shame, a performance SUV is growing up without cutting out the fun. Present here is this 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk. This insane SUV is reported to push out roughly 1000 BHP thanks to some tasty modifications, and has a reported 14,573 miles on the clock.
Jeep rose to become America’s most popular maker of off-roaders through a rich history that started way back in 1948. Along the way, they also introduced some luxury-oriented models, such as the Grand Wagoneer. Debuting in 1984 as a more plush and well-equipped variant of Jeep’s Wagoneer, the Grand Wagoneer that we have today is a fine example from 1991. Moreover, this 1991 Jeep Grand Wagoneer comes with just 74,410 miles on the clock. So grab yourself a slice of Jeep history while you can; it’s a vehicle that can even act as your daily driver if desired.

There’s something unmistakably charming about a classic off-roader. Cars that were built for purpose may have lacked the frills that modern machinery grants us, but they also highlight exactly what we love about them. Our featured 1966 Ford Bronco Restomod aims to blend both the old and the new together with this stunning restomod that features some crucial upgrades. We’re talking about a 5.0-liter Coyote V8 engine under the hood, new Wilwood brakes, and much more that makes this period-looking Bronco as usable and potent as you could hope for. The build has reportedly been carried out by Rocky Roads, and the new Coyote engine reportedly features less than 2,000 miles of running.
The first-generation Ford Bronco is a widely sought-after classic 4x4 and an excellent way to dip your toes into a classic car collection. If you’d like to get in on the Bronco action, this 1973 Ford Bronco Restomod is the best way to start. You’ll be thrilled at how well executed this restoration effort is, and it’s actually a restomod, meaning that you get some modern features too, including a new, powerful engine and a modern automatic gearbox in this iconic vehicle.
The Rover company of Britain had to shift their priorities to adjust to the post-war consumer environment. Prior to the War, Rover made luxury cars but in a new era of promised prosperity among austerity, the automaker turned their attention towards bolstering Britain’s burgeoning agricultural industry. The Willys Jeep of USA was the inspiration, and what emerged was the Land Rover Series in 1948. The Series became the Series II, Series III, and Defender over many decades of solid service, not only in Britain, but across the world. Meanwhile, a Spanish automaking outfit called Santana started working closely with Land Rover to build their own versions in Spain. Today, we’ve got one of their creations, a 1976 Land Rover 88 Series III Santana that was reportedly given a full frame-off restoration in 2023. The vehicle’s rebuilt engine has got less than 1,000 miles on it, as has its rebuilt gearbox. Furthermore, this vehicle was imported from Colombia, highlighting the journey that it’s taken halfway across the world to get to Florida where it currently awaits a new owner – which could be you!
