Modified 1970 Jeep CJ-5

Description

The CJ-5 traces its roots to the military vehicles that helped establish Jeep's reputation for rugged capability, evolving into one of the most recognizable four-wheel-drive vehicles ever produced. Produced from 1954 through 1983, the CJ-5 combined compact dimensions, simple body-on-frame construction, and off-road capability. By 1970, the model featured Buick's Dauntless V6, providing a significant increase in power.

This modified 1970 Jeep CJ-5 is powered by a Dauntless 225ci V6 paired with a three-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. Finished in green with custom blue flames and pinstriping over a black interior, the Jeep is equipped with a removable hardtop, locking doors, high-back bucket seats, side steps, a Pioneer audio system, a tubular roll bar, and a Grant steering wheel.

Other features include a fold-down windshield, two jerry cans, a tow hitch, and a swing-away spare tire carrier. Additional upgrades include 17-inch Pro Comp Xtreme wheels, front disc brakes, and replacement seat belts.

This modified 1970 Jeep CJ-5 is now offered with an owner’s manual and a clean Wisconsin title in the seller’s name.
