Jeep’s Wrangler can owe its lineage to the Jeep CJ. Introduced in 1944, the CJ or Civilian Jeep was the result of Willys-Overland recognizing that with the War ending, they needed a civilian-focused product to continue with. Interestingly, the CJ variants are built tougher than their military counterparts, because Jeep knew that civilian users would use the vehicles for agricultural and commercial purposes, and use them hard. So, they had to last years, rather than the mere months or even weeks that a military Jeep could last before needing repair or replacement. As time passed by, the CJ series went through many iterations, until the CJ-10A which came in 1984 and bowed out by 1986. Today’s example of a fine CJ is this 1976 Jeep CJ-5 Renegade Levi’s Edition from Tallahassee, Florida. The vehicle has received some restoration and renewal, including a new Chevy small-block V8 with under 5,000 miles on it. Let us tell you why you should seriously consider acquiring this distinctive and quirky off-roader.
Exterior and Interior
First off, you’ll notice that this brown 1976 Jeep CJ-5 Renegade Levi’s Edition almost looks like a mini monster truck. Chalk it up to the CJ’s diminutive dimensions paired with the oversized 44-inch tires that it rides on. Of course, to accommodate these tires, fitment of aftermarket shocks and a lift kit was necessary. Now, with these tires and the aforementioned modifications, this vehicle is an off-road beast. You can see that it’s got fantastic approach and departure angles thanks to very little bodywork being ahead of the front tires, and behind the rear tires. Thanks to the high-riding stance, the breakover angle will be impressive too. Meanwhile, the rest of the body of this truck is largely stock, right down to its black canvas top and sides, signature circular headlamps and iconic seven-bar front grille. The interior of this 1976 Jeep CJ-5 Renegade Levi’s Edition features brown cloth seating for up to four occupants, thanks to two front seats and a rear bench. The interior is largely stock as well, save for a CB radio and some aftermarket gauges.
Engine
A new Chevy 327ci small-block engine with under 5,000 miles on the clock powers this 1976 Jeep CJ-5 Renegade Levi’s Edition across hills and dales. The engine has been upgraded with aluminum cylinder heads and powers the wheels via an automatic transmission. A Dana 20 transfer case is in place as well, ensuring seamless performance in varying terrain. Typically, the weakest link of this vehicle will be its driver.
