Choosing to build a vehicle can be a long and daunting journey; the vehicle we have today cuts down that journey and looks to get you behind the wheel for more smiles per gallon. Present today is a 1972 Jeep CJ-5 Renegade Restomod. It is a custom build done to perfection and looking for its new owner.
This 1972 Jeep CJ-5 Renegade Restomod sports an orange exterior and sees custom vinyl that features the "Renegade" marque. The body is in excellent condition due to a reported frame-off restoration completed in 2022 that features the frame being sandblasted and undercoated and the bedliner being sprayed under and inside the tub. The orange exterior is complemented with a reportedly new nutmeg-brown soft top that matches the vehicle interior. Upgrades on the exterior include new LED lights, a 10,000-pound front winch for more off-road journeys, and aluminum crawler wheels wrapped with Mickey Thompson Baja Pro XS tires. The wheels and tires stand out, with a Swing away spare tire carrier sporting a fifth matching wheel at the rear. The interior of this 1972 Jeep CJ-5 Renegade Restomod follows the exterior in terms of tasteful and relevant modifications. The nutmeg-brown interior is reported to be new and can cool you off with the onboard air. The seats are in perfect condition and provide comfort amongst all the upgraded power felt through the aftermarket stainless steel tilt steering wheel. Safety upgrades include a roll cage in place. Your tunes are done justice with a new audio system with a Cobra CB radio with Bluetooth connectivity.
Pop the hood of this 1972 Jeep CJ-5 Renegade Restomod, and you will find a reported 6.0L 401ci V8 powertrain sourced from a 1974 AMC Javelin that is said to be new and has less than 1,300 miles run since swapped in. The upgraded motor sees a few upgrades, which include a Painless wiring harness, a new aluminum radiator, a power steering unit, and a fuel tank. Suspension upgrades include a new suspension with Fox shocks, Dana 44 front end, Dana 60 spicer rear end, and a new no-spin locking differential in the rear end. The upgraded power and handling are met by better-stopping power with all-new power disc brakes. Power is sent to all four wheels of this off-roader through an upgraded driveline with a reportedly new T18 four-speed transmission.
The Jeep CJ or Civilian Jeep was born out of a corporate need to survive. Willys-Overland used to supply the US Military with Jeeps for World War II. In 1944, they realized that with the War due to end, their lucrative orders would also dry up. So, they turned their attention to an America that was soon due to experience an agricultural and industrial boom, and decided to adapt the military Jeep into the CJ. This proved tougher said than done, because military Jeeps had lifespans of months or even weeks. They were throw-away items. A civilian Jeep, on the other hand, would also experience harsh use but be expected to last for years and even decades. Nevertheless, they did it, and the Jeep CJ was made from 1945 until 1986 across several iterations. Then, the successor gained a name that we know to this day; Wrangler. So, why not celebrate that glorious legacy and buy this 1978 Jeep CJ-5 that’s up for sale in Florida? With a 258ci straight six, a custom paint job, Bilstein performance shocks and more goodies, this is an off-road buddy that will never let you down.
Are you the sort of person who prefers a classic off-roader rather than a car? Do you want your classic off-roader to have real off-roading chops, a fine legacy of dependability and come from a well-known American brand? If so, this 1958 Jeep CJ-5 is perfect. Hailing from the illustrious Jeep CJ – that’s Civilian Jeep – legacy, the CJ was created shortly after World War II ended. Willys-Overland, the ones behind the popular Military Jeep knew that without war, their main customer wouldn’t be buying nearly as many vehicles from them. So, they switched gears and made the Jeep CJ, a tough, no-nonsense off-roader aimed at farmers and tradespersons who needed a simple vehicle with guts and four-wheel drive. This vehicle comes from the CJ-5 era which ran between 1954 and 1983. With its naturally aspirated V6, manual gearbox and aftermarket exhaust system, this 1958 Jeep CJ-5 has only done 167 miles since its thorough makeover.
Jeep’s CJ series of off-roaders is what gave rise to the Wrangler today. You can see the design similarities between the old and the new, despite the Wrangler’s notably larger size, plusher cabin, more powerful engine, etc. That iconic face remains largely intact, with the famous seven-bar grille signifying that the vehicle wearing it is capable of great off-road feats. The CJ series came about in 1944, when Willys-Overland knew that they had to switch to the civilian market to survive. World War II was ending, and the military wouldn’t be needing Jeeps like cigarettes anymore. So, the CJ was born, standing for Civilian Jeep. It was made to live a tough life in the fields of agriculture, construction, mining, manufacturing and other rough-and-tumble industries. Jeep knew that the civilian variant would have a lifespan in years or even decades, not months or weeks like its battleship brethren. Hence, the CJ is exceptionally well-built, and many survive to this day. This 1978 Jeep CJ-5 from Melbourne, Florida is proof of that quality.
More than the vehicle itself, there is a sentimental value that is rooted within the Jeep. With a well-known history as a World War II military vehicle, it evolved from a "General Purpose" (GP) requirement into an iconic civilian brand. The Jeep CJ-7 lineup is one of the most popular offerings in its history. After the short-wheelbase CJ-5, the CJ-7 was the bridge that led to the Jeep Wrangler. It has a longer wheelbase and more creature comforts, transforming it into a vehicle that can be used daily. What we are offering here is a 1982 Jeep CJ-7 that found its way to our inventory from Jacksonville, Florida. With just 14248 miles on its odometer, this nippy off-roader is ready to bring adventure to your life.
