Bob forwarded this unusual CJ-5. I think calling this a custom CJ-5 is an understatement. The price is surprising.

Now I’ve seen everything! And what might be the purpose of such modification? I’d really like to know “why”. I don’t see a trailer hitch or fifth wheel back there. And $49K: really???
I want to know what is up with all of the extra lights around the body.
I cant find my checkbook lol
Too much work done and only to get a raised eyebrow.
Short wheelbase in an area with high winds most of the year and snow half the year I can see adding duals for stability. Nice mods (except for the lights going to the side?). 49k???? is there an extra 0?
The pictures prove this one of a kind vehicle was designed by Salvador Dali and built by Timothy Leary with parts purchased from a discount parts store run by an AD/HD counterman. Let’s see, plenty of extra headlights…check, enough taillights to outfit six normal cars…check, more gauges in the dash than are commonly found on a midsize regional jet…check and (best of all) a stupidly high price…check! What a smoking deal.
I saw this last night when I sent it to Dave and laughed out loud! I can’t imagine why someone would do this. What could all those gauges possibly do? And for that matter how could you monitor all of those… Maybe that’s where the co pilot comes in?
Maybe there’s a gauage for each light?
Great in the dark!
KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!
I think there are two gauges set up to monitor how well / if the other gauges are working.
O-M-G ! ! !
this may not be everyone’s “cup of tea” so to speak; but from a fabrication standpoint it’s fairly well done. having said that, i wouldn’t own it
Hey Frank, I can’t imagine tea drinking was involved during the design and fabrication process of this vehicle. To achieve a finished product such as this massive quantities of alcohol need to be consumed. Geeze, this thing’s got more headlights than a proctologist convention.
