UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3800.

This has a Toyota drivetrain.

“This is a great running jeep. It run and drives good with an all toyota drivetrain (20R engine, 5 speed transmission, toyota t case, and toyota 8″ front and rear end.) Great modification to the jeep and makes a lightweight jeep even lighter! The 20R moves the jeep down the road very well. IMO these were the best 4×4’s ever made, mainly because they were 2100 lbs from the factory! If you are looking for a fun toy this is it! It runs, drives, stops, steer, and starts all very well. Tires are almost brand new. comes with a brand new rebuilt 5 speed and rebuilt transfer case with 3.8:1 low gears swapped in it. $3800 OBO”

1965 CJ-5 Santa Rosa, CA **SOLD**

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200

Sure looks like a good price. Runs and drives.

“Early short fender CJ5 with a running Buick Dauntless odd fire 225 V6, T90 transmission, Dana 18 twin stick transfer case, Dana 44 rear end, Dana 27 front end with Warn hubs. New 100 amp GM 1 wire alternator. Has power steering with tilt column, power brakes, and 33×12.50 Goodyear mud tires. New brake lines. Hydraulic clutch. Runs and drives, and might make a good hunting or ranch rig, but would never be road worthy because the frame has been broken and welded back together in a few places, and is most likely not straight. Asking $1200 or best offer, thanks for looking.”
