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).
The interior is nothing short of what you would expect in an American vehicle of this age. Everything is built with a purpose. No-nonsense, straight-line styling. Everything is where you would expect to find it. The modern black leather seats with yellow piping contrast well with the overall color combo of the vehicle. The same thing can be said about the black and yellow flat-bottomed steering wheel. And don’t worry if the going gets rough, the CJ-5’s 4-wheel drive lever and other major controls are well within reach of the driver, either on the floor or on the custom painted dashboard panel, making sure that it isn’t left in a sticky situation. The CJ-5’s exterior is eye-catching, to say the least. The majority of the body is painted a bright yellow with black accents wheel arches, and a custom bullbar (with a fully functional 9,000 lbs Warn winch). Let’s not forget that custom painted bonnet. Couple this with its big nobbly 35-inch Super Swamper tires and custom roll cage, and the CJ-5 is bound to be the talking point wherever you take this CJ-5. Be it the middle of the desert, a grand hotel, or even the grocery store.
No small 4 cylinders here. This CJ-5 has been custom-fitted with a 6.2 liter LS Vortec engine with less than 1,500 miles. It doesn’t get much better than this. Moreover, it has also been fitted with the following - A new 350 turbo transmission A new DANA 300 transfer case A new aluminum radiator frame-off restoration completed in 2016 A new 2.5" Flow master dual exhaust New exhaust headers New power 4-wheel disc brakes with steel braided lines Allowing for an exceptionally modern driving experience for such an old vehicle.

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.

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 Grand Cherokee could very well be the poster child of the modern, do-it-all American sport utility vehicle. Introduced in 1993, the Grand Cherokee differentiated itself with a unibody chassis, and came with some luxury features – in stark contrast to similar vehicles from other automakers. Now in the fifth generation, it is a revered nameplate that is in high demand. This particular fourth-generation 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk Hennessey HP1000 is truly something special, because it’s a Trackhawk, but not a regular one. Instead, it’s been fettled by Hennessey Performance to deliver a thousand horses whenever you crave such accelerative thrills. We’re told that the original parts are included with the sale of this 12,750-mile machine, and that it’s got every option that was available at purchase. It’s truly a super-SUV to behold, and it could be yours.
Jeep is widely known for its go-anywhere off-roaders. But did you know that this prolific brand also makes pickup trucks? The Gladiator is their pickup truck offering these days, but the Commanche was the man of the moment between 1985 and 1992. Produced with multiple bed lengths, and two- or four-wheel drive choices, the Commanche became a Jeep staple during its time. Many buyers appreciated how it offered the signature Jeep off-road experience but could easily carry heavy loads for work purposes. If you’d like to have a Commanche in your life, this 175,273-mile 1988 Jeep Commanche is a great place to start. It’s got a rebuilt engine and comes with a few cosmetic tweaks, too.
Venturing off the beaten path and being where no one has been is an experience that cannot be replicated. Getting you to picturesque views requires a purpose-built motor, but what if you wanted a capable off-roader that is user-friendly for daily travel as well? Look no further—this 1983 Jeep CJ-7 is the one for you. With a reported 107,000 miles on the clock, this '80s icon features custom styling to make it stand out and performance to match its upgraded styling as well.

Ford’s Bronco is an immensely popular sport utility vehicle. Widely hailed as the first proper American SUV, the Bronco debuted in the sixties and ran through five generations until 1996, when Ford retired the nameplate. When they dusted it off in 2021, cheers rang through, and the new Bronco is somewhat of a hit today. But that doesn’t dilute the appeal of older Broncos, like this third-generation 1986 Ford Bronco. In fact, this 119,000-mile vehicle has only gotten better with age and is still able to strut its stuff. So, if you want a relatively modern but still classic SUV to grace your garage, pick this one. It’ll gladly take you off-roading, as well as be a great showcase on your daily run.
The 1999 Chevrolet Tahoe is known to be built on a true truck chassis derived from the iconic Chevy C/K 1500 pickup. Once known as the Chevrolet K5 Blazer, it was rebranded to the all-new Chevrolet Tahoe in 1995. This particular model we have today is a reportedly rare model that became one of the last ever two-door Tahoes in 1999. Also known as the GMC Yukon, Chevrolet Grand Blazer, and Chevrolet Silverado in their respective territories, the Chevrolet Tahoe even became Motor Trend magazine’s Truck of the Year for 1996. The standard Vortec 5700 engines in the Tahoes were revised with increased power and fuel efficiency and put to use in the same year with the automatic transmission also being revised the later year. Now in its fifth generation, this first-generation Chevrolet Tahoe, just shy of 83,000 miles on the odometer, can be kept as collectible for its rarity as it reaches its classic status or even still comfortably be used as a daily. In fact, this truck may even outlive most things on the road, given that you take good care of it.
