“Up for sale is my 1983 AM General DJ-5L right hand drive postal mail Jeep. Two wheel drive, runs and drives, Pontiac iron duke 2.5 4-cylinder oddly mated to a Chrysler automatic transmission. Matching set of 4 tires with full tread, and new exhaust. Brakes work, but the brake light is on. Rusty, patches over patches, the back of the frame was rusted out and welded back up with a 2″ hitch added.

I’m not sure if the 59,000 miles is original or if it has hundreds of thousands more. The only gauge that works is the ammeter, but the lights, windshield wipers, and heat work. Starter sometimes grinds when you start it. Back when I was selling on Ebay full-time I was going to use it to go to neighborhood rummage sales, but I’m not sure it’s road worthy.

Might make a better field car or trailer spotter, golf cart or cheap UTV, or use for parts, or some other off road use. Asking $1,500 or best offer, hard to know what to ask. Title comes with a signed MV2300 , if I’m understanding it right I shouldn’t have to put it in my name to sell it to someone else, but I can if necessary. I would just prefer not to give the DMV $164.50 for doing next to nothing. Also, I have a spare engine available with only 48,000 miles on it”
