“Here is a very complete mostly original CJ5. I believe it received a frame-off restoration in the 1980s. Judging by the engine swap, and the quality of paint both on the exterior as well as under the tub body. The frame is rock solid. Top speed is around 45mph-50mph from the factory. Not suitable for the highway. I have driven it a few hundred miles around town with no mechanical problems.

Almost 100% solid body – Small patch under tool box, rust spot near driver’s fender. Some body damage on driver’s rear quarter. Small amount of rust at bottom of tailgate.
