In collaboration with Levis, Jeep created a truly distinctive version of the 1978 Jeep CJ-5 Renegade. This particular Renegade stands out with its vibrant bright red paint finish, which has been fully repainted to restore its original luster. The iconic Jeep grille takes center stage in the front fascia, accompanied by stylish lights and a chrome bumper that reflects its off-road capabilities. The Renegade script adorns the sides of the hood, while the Jeep and Levis logos can be found near the side steps. The original decals have been carefully preserved, and aftermarket sidesteps have been added to enhance accessibility. Step inside, and you'll be greeted by an elegant tan interior, which underwent reupholstering six years ago. To further emphasize the collaboration with Levis, new blue Levis buttons were added, complementing the overall design. The seats feature simulated Levi fashion stitching, adding a touch of style and comfort. The dash boasts jean-style padding, and the top is made of a durable jean-type material. The original steering wheel and dashboard have been retained, while new side and rearview mirrors, lights, and a modern stereo system have been installed, enhancing functionality and convenience.
The 1978 Jeep CJ-5 Renegade gained popularity due to its robust engine performance. Powering this vehicle is a reliable 258 cubic inch inline-6 engine, complemented by a single barrel carburetor.

For off-road enthusiasts, the CJ-5 Renegade Levi's Edition is equipped with a dual-range transfer case, allowing you to easily switch between 4x2 and 4x4 modes to conquer various terrains. The engine's power output was estimated at 103 horsepower, accompanied by an impressive torque of 201 lb-ft.
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.
If you want to experience a true-blue off-roader with minimal fripperies and no-nonsense capabilities, try a Jeep CJ. CJ stands for Civilian Jeep, and that’s precisely what Willys-Overland had in mind in the mid-1940s. World War II was coming to a close and orders for military Jeeps would soon dry up. So, they turned their attention to the civilian world, specifically the agricultural and manufacturing sectors. The result was the CJ series, which would keep going until 1986. Know what replaced the CJ? The Wrangler! Yes, the Jeep CJ lives in spirit to this day, and you can celebrate that fine legacy by purchasing this 1967 Jeep CJ-5 from Loveland, Colorado. It’s got only under 2,000 miles to its name and is the perfect off-roader for a day (or several) of fun in the jungle, desert, tundra or wherever else you get your outdoors fix.

Jeep’s CJ series was born out of the need to keep in business. Willys-Overland knew that since World War II was ending, so would their lucrative military contract for Jeeps. So, they created the Civilian Jeep – CJ, get it? It was meant for usage that was even tougher than a battlefield. This meant use at the hands of farmers, construction workers, manufacturing facility operators and other harsh environments, for years on end, with minimal maintenance and often driven hard too. The CJ was made across several iterations from 1944 to 1986 before giving rise to a familiar name – Wrangler. Yes, the Jeep Wrangler can directly trace its lineage to the CJ series, and the resemblance is uncanny too. Here, we have a 1986 Jeep CJ-7 for sale from Henderson, Nevada. This fine machine comes with the 304ci AMC V8, a reupholstered interior and a decent 104,953 miles on the odometer.
The Jeep Wrangler is one of just two vehicles available today that allow you to remove the doors and roof for the ultimate open-air experience. You can imagine the engineering that goes into enabling such a feat, and most manufacturers simply don’t bother. But Jeep can’t do that, and you know why? Because since the mid-1940s, they’ve been outfitting enterprising Americans with tough, go-anywhere, do-anything off-roaders. The Wrangler, in fact, can directly trace its lineage to the Jeep CJ series. Today’s 2019 Jeep Wrangler comes from the current JL series and packs a punchy Pentastar V6 under its rather sizable hood.

The Chevy El Camino showed the world in 1959 that a pickup truck didn’t have to be a body-on-frame machine with stodgy styling and uncomfortable riding dynamics. Instead, Chevy created a segment called the Coupe Utility, which was basically a seamless integration of cab, chassis and cargo area into one element. This led to a sportier, lower-riding and more comfortable vehicle that could still carry a decent payload in its cargo bed. After all, many buyers of such vehicles didn’t need heavy load-carrying per se, rather they wanted space. The El Camino also gained a reputation in the muscle car class, since it was available with some truly awesome V8s under the hood. Here, we have a 1960 Chevrolet El Camino that’s received a 383 Stroker under the hood, paired with a 3-speed automatic gearbox and a B&M shifter. With just 23,000 miles on its belt, this machine of multiple personas awaits its new owner in Dana Point, California.
The famous Ford F-Series was born in 1948, as America was emerging into a post-war world of promise and prosperity. Now in the fourteenth generation, the F-Series has got to be the world’s longest-running truck series, if not one of the longest. Today, the F-150 is the most popular variant as the half-tonner, but if we look at the first generation, the range simply started with the F-1 as the half-ton variant. That’s what we have here, a 1950 Ford F-1 Restomod from Groveport, Ohio. It’s received a thorough makeover with a 350ci V8 under the hood, an automatic gearbox, a converted 12-volt electrical system and more. If you want to own a classic Ford truck that you can actually enjoy driving, this 78,000-mile machine is your best option.
