Selling my 1974 CJ5. This thing is a true untouched running / driving, survivor. Even better its a Northeast Jeep with no major rust rot or body work. Original floors not rotted not repaired, original paint. 33k original miles, clean clear title. This is registered, insured inspected , and driven.Body does have some stress cracks, dings/ scratches, minor surface rust, a small rust hole ( pictured)on passenger rocker, and some spray can / brush touch ups, but all and all about as original as you can get. Tailgate is rust free, passenger under seat toolbox rust free! Don't expect a show jeep, but either a great driver or an excellent candidate for a restore, as most everything that came on it is still on it and works. Motor runs great 258 straight 6 , starts easy, idles good, etc. Original 1 bbl Carter YF carb. 4x4 works, T18 granny low 4 speed shifts good. Transfer case is greasy / oily but it doesnt leave any puddles or drips when its parked. New Bestop front seats, and a new Bestop bikini. Gauges all work, including fuel gauge! Heat/ defrost work , but can use new control cables. Horn even works! Rear tail lights not currently connected. I replaced the broken originals with 76-86 CJ tail lights and didnt hook them up yet.Original wiring/ connections still in tact if you want to put the early round ones back on. Headlights do work. Underneath, it has brand new 2.5" BDS springs, grease able shackles,, ( originals were completely flattened out), braided stainless brake hoses, new shoes, wheel cyls, etc. new parking brake cables come with it. 32x11.5-15 BFG AT Tires with approx 70% tread even wear. Factory CJ Wagon wheels. Frame was cracked and plated , on both sides, ( see pic) but that's pretty common on these older CJs, good solid repair, should not have any issues.There is no rot on the frame. Has plow frame and pump. Pump isn't hooked up, I never tested it. No blade or undercarriage mount for plow. Everything works great on this jeep and it drives great for a 40 year old original. I really liked the patina so I kept it original. You can probably drive this anywhere, but it won't be a comfy ride. Manual steering, manual brakes. Windshield has some frosting from being old, but I have a good shape used glass that goes w/ jeep. No other top than bikini, but I have the original Meyers hard top listed in an other auction. email me if you have any questions. I really planned on keeping this, because how many do you come across with a T18, and this kind of original shape, but too many other projects and work have been keeping me from enjoying it.
