For Sale 1970 Cj5 With Extras

Hell, I dunno, if somebody showed up with $5500 Cash.

Yep, it's mine. I've just lost interest. I've not even driven it in any real manner in almost 2 years, and I'd rather see it go to a good home, where it will be driven, than to sit here and rot in my driveway.

http://www.earlycj5.com/xf_cj5/index.php?threads/88543/ Whole buncha Pictures in there, it still looks like that.

I can promise it runs well enough to get it on a trailer, probably runs well enough to drive it across town, but as it sits, I wouldn't try driving it any further than that.

Located in Bellevue, Washington, Clean Washington Title

- Ford Econoline Disc/Drum Master Cylinder replaced the original single pot, Pedals are still through the floor.

- Summit Racing Mojave heater

The Bad:

Chassis:
- Leafs have been removed from the spring packs, so it won't knock your fillings out.
- The upper stud on the rear passenger shock mount is broken, and the nut is only grabbing about 2 threads.
- The Front Crossmember could probably use some attention, where the steering shaft goes through the crossmember after the saginaw conversion, I just never got done with that detail.

Drivetrain:
Engine:
- The valve guides in the heads are shot, it smokes pretty good on decel, especially once it's warmed up.
- The Rear Main seal on the engine leaks. I actually replaced it when I did the transmission swap, and apparently I screwed it up.

Transmission:
- The synchros were *really* sticky when I installed the transmission, so at the moment, it has a combination of GL4, Marvel Mystery Oil, and a touch of diesel fuel in it. It shifts fine now, but if I don't get to draining and refilling with GL4 before it sells, it's something the new owner would want to do.

Transfer Case:
- It leaks. It's a Dana 18, it will probably always leak, but perhaps the next owner can make that not happen anymore.
- The Front driveline is not currently installed, because I just never got around to putting it in, after swapping the transmission.

Body:
- Drivers and Passenger footwell floorboards are rotten, I *think* the hat channels are alright
- The Dashboard is swiss cheese, after who knows how many prior owners drilled holes in it, and I believe it's currently only holding together, due to the piece of aluminum diamond plate tech screwed to it.
- The wiring is a bit of a rat's nest, everything works, but it's not great.
- There is a rust repair in the passenger side sill plate that wasn't done very well, and the passenger rear quarter, where another rust repair in the "Spare Tire" location was done poorly (by yours truly)
- The paint is almost non-existent. Granted, it was almost non-existent when I bought it, and I've done nothing to improve it.
- The Transmission Tunnel plate needs to be modified for the transmission swap (Shifter location moved back appx 4" from where the T14 was)
- The upper mounting for the XJ Column is solid, and it works, but it is janky, it's somethign I always meant to redo.


The Extras:
- Koenig Iron Works Hard top, complete, glass is all there, but it could stand to be replaced, as can the window channels
- Extra set of Cylinder Heads (not ready to run)
- Factory Rear Seat (untouched, no rips, but it's been out in the weather)
- Leafs removed from the Spring Packs will be included, if you wanted to put them back in
- Extra Factory hood, with the Snorkel Provision
- Fuel Tank Skid Plate (Currently not installed, roughly 1/8" thick formed steel)
- Set of Selectro Hubs that were on it, when I bought it
- Replacement Dashboard, which is in better shape, but *does* have a hole poorly hacked into the middle of it, for some past radio installation or such, easily fixable.
- Set of BestTop half-door metal frames (Fabric is gone)
- Some random other bits, I can't recall all what I've got sitting in the garage


I'm not really interested in parting out any of the extras. At the moment, This is a take it all sort of deal, especially since I'll be needing to make a trip to Montana to get the Hard Top, Rear Seat, Extra Hood, and Fuel Tank skid plate. Perfectly willing to go get them, I just don't want to keep them sitting around for forever.

Any other questions, just ask. I can get current pictures of things, if there's something specific you want to see.

 

Boo! You post this as I'm already going to get a flatfender this weekend!

 

Story of my life =P

 

For those of you that may or may not be thinking about it, all of the "Extras" I listed, are now here with the Jeep, rather than being 1300km away.

And yes, it's still available

 

I think this seems like a pretty square deal. Lots of the best upgrades are done.

 

Bumping it for a solid deal. Hope it sells to a good home

 

I just realized, I missed a couple of the "extras" while I was digging through my garage, and my shed.

NIB uninstalled Energy Suspension Poly Bushing kit (I believe it includes all the body mounts, spring eye bushings, etc)

A set of brand new "Greaseable" shackle bolts that I made, but never got around to installing, because I never got around to doing the spring bushings

Set of 4 Kelsey-Hayes 15x8 Rims. I don't know, and won't certify that these are "Renegade Wheels" but they are stamped Kelsey-Hayes, and in pretty good shape, no rot or rust, they're not out of round. I've never had tires mounted on them, or on a rig, I acquired them a couple years ago off of a Marketplace deal.

 

Would love to have the wheels but shipping to TN wouldn’t be feasible..
