Not really happy about selling this but between buying a house, changing jobs and moving insurance I FUBAR’d my taxes and will need to pay in a lot more than I was anticipating. Jeep sat in a garage for 5-6 years before I bought it at XMAS so still needs few bugs worked out.

The body is an 81 CJ5 on a 78 frame, I have titles for both. Jeep will come with bill of sale.

AMC 360 out of a full sized jeep older than 82, I’ve gotten it running and idling but would recommend a carb rebuild.

New battery and hold down straps, drop pitman arm and new draglink.

It has a 4 speed manual trans but not sure which model since I haven’t tried to figure it out.
I’m assuming axles are stock for a 78. front has a SOA setup and I'm not sure about remainder of lift.

New fuel pump, new rubber lines from engine to tank and newer tank and skid. I believe seller told me it was a “belly up” tank but I’m not too sure.
Looks similar to one I pulled off so either it’s stock or one I pulled was a belly up also.

It comes with attached bikini top and half doors. Paint is a 10 footer but looks good with a few blemishes that are coming up.

I just got a decent set of used 33” mud tires on 15x8 steelies and a spare with a 35” tire on it.

i added an adjustable towbar to the front bumper since i was planning to flat tow for first few wheeling trips but would likely drive itself onto a trailer.

PICTURE IS FROM WHEN I BOUGHT IT, WIDE TIRES AND RIMS ARE GONE.

i will finish bolting up THE pitman arm and pull it out of the garage this weekend and add more pictures.

Drop Pitman arm installed, fuel lines finished and started without starter fluid. Drove around church parking lot to find out no brakes right now but drove great! Firm on price and new pics below
