This price looks good. This runs and drives and has a PTO, but the 4wd doesn’t work. Also, this seems a bit late for a split windshield.

This looks good! Does anyone know if cj5s have more leg room than a cj3a? 🙂
They are on the same 81″ wheelbase, so I suspect there isn’t much more. I do know that customizing the seating can make a huge difference.
Is this a m38a1, split wiindshield and a battery box on the cowl?
Roy, I don’t think so. The headlights don’t look to me as inset as they would be on a M-38a1. CJ-5s came with battery boxes and lids, though batteries weren’t in them. Also, there were some CJ-5s with split windshields (though someone said they were only an option). Finally, even early CJ-5s came with reversed front shackles, like the M-38A1.
I suspect the windshield isn’t original OR the titled year is wrong.
