About this 1979 Jeep CJ-5

VIN: J9F83AH837883

Rare 1979 Jeep CJ-5 Silver Anniversary Edition Renegade

This 79 Silver has been deemed an authentic Silver Anniversary by 79 Silver Registry, it is number 60 on their list.

It features the AMC 304 V8 engine. It spent most of its life at a hunting cabin in Colorado. It has been garage kept since my purchase in 2012. It has minor rust but nothing major.
The odometer reads 10522 miles but the true miles are unknown.

Everything is in working order, no leaks or defects. The only modifications made since my purchase are new clutch, pressure plate, throw-out bearing, and linkage to the clutch pedal and new shocks, plus standard maintenance, plugs, wires, fluid changes.

This is a rare CJ being offered at a standard CJ price but would need work to restore it to it's original glory.

Contact me for more information or to schedule a showing.
