Known popularly as the first ever mass-produced four-wheel drive vehicle, the CJ, short for 'civilian Jeep,' was introduced in 1945 and continued in production for a further 41 years. In 1954, the CJ-5 made its debut. One can argue that it was the most influential CJ of all time, as its success kept in production for three decades thereafter, even after new models were released. For those looking to own an iconic piece of 4WD history, congratulations, your time has come in the form of this beautiful 1976 Jeep CJ-5.
Significant changes to the CJ-5 were made in 1972 with the introduction of new engines by American Motors. The vehicle was increased in length and width and given a new box frame to improve its rigidity. This 1976 Jeep CJ-5 comes from an era where the CJ was at its best, and in its divine condition, it is a truly spectacular offering. This CJ-5 sits proudly in Honolulu Blue paint, a beautiful contrast to the white bumpers and roll cage. Close attention was granted towards the restoration of the interior of this vehicle; its body-colored dash hosts a few essential functionality-related switches along with a speedometer. The passenger side has a chrome-plated glove box, and the two front (and only) seats are tan, matching with the spare tire cover in the rear, giving this Jeep CJ-5 a truly retro feel. Additionally, the owner has fitted in a JVC stereo system that is Bluetooth and AUX compatible, so you always have the option of hooking up your phone to listen to some music.
The power plant of this 1976 Jeep CJ-5 is a 258ci I6, known to Jeep enthusiasts as the AMC I6. The engine uses a cast iron block and cylinder heads as well as overhead valves and, interestingly, hydraulic lifters. The 258ci engine power is rated at around 112hp and it produces around 210lb-ft of torque.
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).
Jeep, originally a utility vehicle that played a pivotal role in the Allied victory, emerged as a symbol of resilience and limitless potential. The roots of the 1983 Jeep CJ-5 Std trace back to the aftermath of World War II. Inspired by the rugged conditions of war-torn landscapes, the M38A1's lineage directly influenced the creation of the CJ-5. With its distinct lack of doors and roof, the CJ-5 encapsulates the concept of open-bodied freedom. Under the guidance of Kaiser, the new corporate owner, CJ-5, underwent meticulous refinements. This stunning example of the 1983 Jeep CJ-5 we have here is an interesting case as the current owner believes its motor to be swapped.
The Jeep CJ series can trace its roots back to the original Willy’s Jeep, the car that mobilized the American forces during the Second World War. Since then, the Jeep CJ has found its way into the hearts of many around the world, who appreciate this quintessential offroader for its rugged abilities and backyard mechanic simplicity. The CJ-7 was introduced in 1976 and would be the last “CJ” Jeep before the introduction of the Wrangler that we know today. Our featured 1978 Jeep CJ-7 is described as a restomod, with a 304ci V8 engine, and a whole host of improvements to be found under the metal — that’s in no small part thanks to the owner reportedly spending over $13,000 in aftermarket work alone!
One of the most iconic off-roaders, the Jeep Wrangler is renowned for its removable doors and top. There’s only one other off-roader on the market today that allows you to do this; that’s the Ford Bronco. Introduced in 1986, the Wrangler comes decked out with Jeep’s signature off-roading capabilities from the factory. This makes it far more useful off-road than any other SUV before it’s been heavily modified. But, Jeep Wranglers can still be modified for even more capability off road, which is what this third generation, JK-series 2015 Jeep Wrangler Ultimate Sport has become. Now, this 71,000-mile trail beast could be yours!
Since 1992, the Jeep Grand Cherokee has been one of America’s signature midsize off-roaders. Calling it an SUV is almost sacrilegious, because Jeep products aren’t just Sport Utility Vehicles. They’re made for the great outdoors, many bear Jeep’s hallowed Trail Rated badge, and come with plenty of off-road kit from the factory. But what happens when there’s a set of owners who want their Grand Cherokee to pack as much horsepower as possible? Enter the Grand Cherokee SRT, with its 475-hp 6.4L HEMI V8. But if that’s still insufficient, check out this specially modified 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT with 59,784 miles on the clock. You’ll have to keep reading to find out what’s been modified, but let us tell you that it’s been reportedly dynoed at 753 wheel horsepower!

People remember the Chevrolet El Camino for one major reason. That reason is the fact that the El Camino is a coupe utility, or ute. The front half is that of a car; the rear half is a pickup truck. However, the El Camino isn’t a rough-riding body-on-frame vehicle. The second generation, from which this 1965 Chevrolet El Camino hails, is adapted from the midsize Chevy Chevelle platform. So, you can expect a suitably car-like ride and handling characteristics, but still get a decent amount of payload capacity thanks to the vehicle’s truck bed. This 90,000-mile 1965 Chevrolet El Camino has received some refurbishment work, and notably, it’s said to have been owned by one family all its life. That makes it a wonderful classic to buy and enjoy.
Classic cars from the ’60s are hot property. But it’s not just cars that have found their way into the hearts of enthusiasts. Humble work trucks like the 1963 Chevrolet C10 are just as desirable. With values for these historic workhorses climbing year after year, it’s getting hard to find good examples of these classics. Our featured 1963 Chevrolet C10 Stepside appears to be largely original and features a 230ci engine, with a four-speed manual transmission. Whether you’re looking for a well-preserved classic truck or the perfect basis for a restomod, this C10 could be the answer you’re looking for.
