1973 JEEP CJ-5 4X4 ONLY 46,672 MILES 2-OWNER 304 V-8 3-SPEED TRANSMISSION HARDTOP ALL ORIGINAL METAL BODY RAMSEY WINCH HISTORY: OK JEEP FANS, HERE IT IS. MR. JOE MOONEY WHO LIVED IN SHEPHERDSVILLE KENTUCKY PURCHASED THIS JEEP NEW. HE WAS A LOCAL BUSINESSMAN WHO ALSO OWNED THE LOCAL NAPA PARTS STORE. HE PURCHASED THE JEEP AS A SPARE VEHICLE FOR USE AROUND HIS FARM AND SOME LOCAL HUNTING TRIPS. HE PASSED AWAY APPROXIMATELY A YEAR AGO AND WAS PURCHASED BY A FAMILY FRIEND FROM THE ESTATE. THIS GENTLEMAN HAD THE JEEP PAINTED AND USED IT FOR ABOUT A YEAR UNTIL HE TRADED IT TO US ON A VEHICLE MORE SUITED FOR DAILY DRIVING. VALVOLINE OIL CHANGE STICKER IN GLOVE BOX SHOWS 41,500 MILES DATED 1-20-89 CONDITION: UNFORTUNATELY, WHOEVER PAINTED THIS JEEP ABOUT A YEAR AGO, DID NOT DO THE JEEP ANY JUSTICE. IT IS A 20 FOOTER AT BEST. HIS BODY, TAPING AND SPRAYING SKILLS ARE SOME OF THE WORST I HAVE EVER SEEN. DON'T BE FOOLED BY THE PICTURES. UNLESS IT IS GOING TO BE USED OFFROAD, IT NEEDS A REAL PAINT JOB AND SOME MINOR RUST REPAIR. THERE ARE BUBBLES AND PREVIOUS REPAIR COMING TO THE SURFACE. THERE WILL NEED TO BE SOME RUST REPAIR DONE ON THIS JEEP. THANKFULLY HE ONLY PAINTED THE OUTSIDE. THE INTERIOR IS 100% ORIGINAL. MEHANICAL: THIS JEEP IS OLD. I AM NOT MAKING ANY WARRANTIES TO THE CONDITION OF THE DRIVETRAIN. I HAVE DRIVEN IT DOWN THE ROAD AND IT SEEM TO BE OK. CRANKS A LITTLE LONG (CARBURATOR ADJUSTMENT OR REBUILD) BUT AFTER THAT RUNS FINE. SHIFTS SMOOTH, CLUTCH SEEMS TO BE OK. DID NOT TRY 4X4 OR THE WINCH. NO GUARANTEES. MOTOR SOUNDS FINE. NO LOWER OR TOP END NOISE WHATSOEVER. ORIGINAL STYLE EXHAUST SO IT JUST SITS AND PURRS AT IDLE. PREVIOUS CUSTOMER STATED THAT HE JUST REPLACED BRAKES, SHOCKS, FUEL PUMP AND GAS TANK. I CANNOT VERIFY ANY OF THIS. STEERING SEEMS TIGHT. LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE PAINTED THE ENGINE BLACK AT SOME POINT. I THINK IT WAS ORIGINALLY BLUE. PERFORMANCE: REALLY NOT BAD. SEEMS LIKE IT HAS PLENTY OF POWER. IT RIDES ROUGH. I AM SURE THESE OLD BIAS PLY TIRES ARE AT LEAST 30 YEARS OLD. I WOULD DRIVE THIS JEEP ANYWHERE LOCALLY, BUT WOULD RECOMMEND TOWING IT IF YOU ARE TRAVELLING OVER 30 MILES.
