1977 CJ-5 Low Miles

1977 Jeep CJ-5

3 Speed Manual | 4x4 | Low Original Miles | Price Dropped

In brief: This is NOT a project Jeep, so unlike most used Jeeps this one is good to go without any hidden costs. But keep in mind that this wasn’t built for the showroom. I drove the Jeep 4-5 times a week, so most of the professional work/modifications was done for safety and driveability.
