Jeep created an undeniable winner when it rolled out the CJ-5. Such was the car’s appeal that its manufacturer kept it in production for a full three decades while continuing to release new lines alongside it. This 1983 Jeep CJ-5 is a great representative of the model – it’s an agile mountain goat on wheels and it has fun written all over it. Its sharp exterior features some great touches and there’s plenty of power under the hood to propel it over any obstacle in the way.
While the CJ-5 has an extensive military heritage and was designed with a sort of “no-nonsense” functionality in mind, its appealingly rugged demeanor attracted quite a legion of civilian fans over the years. This warmed-over, driver-quality CJ-5 arrives at the present looking pretty darned sharp, with a very appealing red paint job in strong condition, featuring a nice shine from front to back. The close-set headlights have a definite military spirit to them as they sit in a painted grille that matches perfectly with the rest of the exterior while bracketed by a pair of fog lights that add further distinction. Come around to the side and you’ll find another clue that this Jeep was designed for real off-road action – its compact CJ-5 wheelbase contributes to its ability to navigate challenging terrain. There’s an aggressive ‘push’ bumper/brush guard painted in black up front, and it complements the uber-tough diamond-plate rear bumper and mounted spare-tire assembly in the rear, along with the oversized fender flares and rocker moldings at the flanks that all work together to beef up this CJ’s trail-cred. There’s some bright stuff too, including the headlight surrounds and hood hinges/hooks, but even accessories like the oversized mirrors, fog lights, and roll bar bolted down inside are blacked-out, continuing the Jeep’s two-tone theme.
The usual stock and spartan interior of the early CJ-5 saw a little sprucing up in the ’80s models, with this one featuring tan Bestop front buckets and a matching rear bench, so everyone rides in comfort in this classic. A locking center console splits the buckets, adding some much-needed storage (and cupholders) inside the rather diminutive interior, and it comes mounted ahead of the shifters for the 4-speed manual transmission and 2-speed transfer case. The entire tub was lined with black bedliner, and if we’re honest it probably could’ve been done a bit more comprehensively, and it could use a thorough detail for that matter. The front windshield still drops down – one of the coolest features of a classic Jeep, a 3-spoke steering wheel sits atop a tilt column and provides more for the driver, while just in front of it the black steel dash come protected with thick dash pad. A minimalist gauge presentation is one of Jeep’s trademarks, and the classic all-in-one gauge mounted in the center handles the basics with a couple flanking auxiliary units managing the rest. A JVC AM/FM/Cd/AUX head unit powers upgraded speakers, the roll bar was bedlined to match the tub, and a full soft-top and doors transform this CJ into a four-season cruiser. Despite the CJ-5’s relatively modest wheelbase, there’s enough room for four (in a pinch), and if it’s more cargo space you seek, the rear bench can be removed fairly easily.
A 4.2 liter inline 6 cylinder sits under the hood to power this Jeep over any terrain you might wish to conquer. It’s not pretty, but as far as performance the engine is in good form, starting up promptly and running strong thanks to a newer carb, new wiring harness, and aluminum radiator all on tap. Shifts are very smooth thanks to the addition of a 4-speed manual transmission, and it spins an uber-rugged rear end out back. Should you decide to take temporary leave of the road, with a flick of the lever just in front of the distinctive shifter, you can engage 4-wheel drive and, with this CJ-5’s generous wheel clearance and travel, its ability to handle obstacles is substantial. There are accommodations for more civilized conditions, as well, as power steering, front disc brakes, and an aftermarket steering stabilizer are part of the show, all of which help provide the road manners you’d want in a frequent driver. This timeless 4-wheel drive classic sits on a set of blacked-out wheels, outfitted with beefy 31×10.5×15 BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A tires with plenty of tread left to conquer the elements.
Looking sharp, packing plenty of power and offering undeniable nostalgic appeal, this Jeep CJ-5 would be a great acquisition for the weekend warrior and off-road enthusiast alike. Call today!

General Terms
Terms & Conditions
We recognize the need for complete transparency when buying/selling vehicles on eBay. That said, we did not build, modify, or have the luxury of personal ownership that would give us the advantage of knowing all unknown aspects of each vehicle. Transparency is king and we’re happy to try and answer ALL questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we welcome and encourage independent inspections (see Inspection statement below).
FEES
: A documentation fee of $299 will be added to the purchase price at the time of sale. Sale price does not include any Title, License, Registration, State or Local Taxes or Processing Fees. We recommend you familiarize yourself with your individual state’s taxes, transfer, or additional fees.
AVAILABILITY
: Please inquire prior to purchase to assure any advertised vehicle is not already sold. We advertise across multiple platforms where a vehicle can sell in a moment’s notice. Vehicles may be sold prior to eBay listing end, and we reserve the right to end listings early or to cancel bids/offers solely at our discretion and shall not be held liable for any such cancellation.
CONTACT
: Note that you may hear from us after to the sale, but if you are a winning bidder, click a Buy-It-Now, or we accept your eBay Offer, it is your responsibility to contact us within 24 hours.
INSPECTION
: VERY IMPORTANT. If a buyer chooses to buy sight unseen (many of our buyers choose this option) the buyer accepts the vehicle AS-IS and understands we cannot address concerns post sale. For this reason, it’s important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer/buyer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale.
PAYMENT
: We require a non-refundable $500 deposit within 48 hours of winning or commitment to purchase. Full payment is required within 7 days of offer acceptance unless other arrangements are agreed to in writing. If deposit and/or full payment are not provided within said timeframe, all vehicles will be relisted and transaction will be considered void. For balance of payment we will accept bank wire transfer (preferred), cashier’s check, or personal check (vehicle shipment will be delayed until check clears).We also offer vehicle financing, please inquire for details prior to making bids/offers. SHIPPING: We have access to a network of private and commercial carriers. Most of them can deliver the vehicle to your driveway and upon your schedule. We assume no responsibility for damages or delays incurred once a vehicle is in a shipper’s custody. Buyers are welcomed to trailer vehicles home and we are happy to have everything ready to see you off with your new vehicle.
DRIVE IT HOME
: If you plan to buy and drive home, please keep some things in mind. Anything is possible when it comes to a vehicle, especially a classic or antique one. We recommend transporting all vehicles to your home first, then driving it locally. Get to know the vehicle and its tendencies before embarking on a long-distance trip. If you choose to drive your new vehicle home, buyer accepts all responsibility as we are unable to control what may take place once it leaves our facility.
DOCUMENTS & VEHICLE TITLE
: All purchase documents are sent immediately upon purchase. To avoid delays, we recommend returning any required documents within 24 hours of receipt. Please allow up to 30 days for vehicle titles. Usually titles are available sooner, we ask for the extra time in the event there are unforeseen circumstances.
VIN VERIFICATION
: We photograph the primary VIN location of every vehicle and make sure that VIN exactly matches the vehicle’s current title. Buyer agrees to hold seller harmless from any disputes arising from other hidden or secondary VINs present on the vehicle as seller only verifies the primary VIN location. If needed, it is the buyer’s sole responsibility to verify secondary VIN locations their specific state may inspect, prior to purchase.
MILEAGES
: Occasionally our vehicles may be driven or simply moved around our facilities. Slight differences may occur so we recommend you confirm actual and current miles prior to purchase.
CONDITION
: We cover the obvious and do our best to describe our vehicles in detail. Even so, please have a transparent conversation with us before purchasing. Do be aware that all pre-owned vehicles, regardless of age, mileage, or manufacturer are subject to cosmetic wear and mechanical failure. Finally, be advised that although our sales associates are here to assist you with your purchase, they are not trained or certified vehicle inspectors.
AS-IS
: All vehicles are sold “AS IS” and with no warranties expressed or implied. If you choose to waive inspection, do plan to have a detailed and transparent conversation with us regarding the vehicle’s condition. Ask the hard questions up front. Please just call us, we are here to help and welcome all your questions!

Information is provided to the best of our knowledge and we make no warranty or representation regarding the accuracy, truth, or reliability of such information. We cannot be responsible for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies contained in information provided by the consignor/seller of the vehicle. We strive to perform extensive visual inspections on all vehicles we represent but we do not disassemble vehicles or components for inspection purposes and therefore it is always possible that there is hidden damage that is not readily apparent. All vehicles are sold AS-IS with no warranties expressed or implied.
Fees and Taxes
Sales tax, title, license fee, registration fee, dealer documentary fee, finance charges, emission testing fees, and compliance fees are additional to the advertised price. Vehicle is listed locally, we reserve the right to end the auction at any time.
