1979 Jeep CJ5 - Preview of What's to Come

[@RestorationObsession]

lol So I think maybe I should just change the name of this channel to That Blue Vette, or Blue Dream (the name of my blue vette), or Vette Lady, I don't know but it seems all anyone really comes to my channel for is Corvette videos so seeing as how so few seem interested in the CJ I'll probably just not bother with it, or the TR7 or the other non-Vette related restoration stuff I do. Idk... comment if you have thoughts on this.

They sold a boatload of C3 Vettes haha Many still roaming the streets. They look like supercars to the millennial but to the older folks, its more nostalgic remnant of their youth. As Jay Leno said, you dont want to look like a deposed dictators idiot son driving a million dollar car.

Had an 82 CJ5 same color although it had an Iron Duke 4 banger. I had 38" mud terrain tires with a 4" spring lift 3" body lift and front reverse shackle kit to stop the infamous wandering. More torque than a V6. Was a fun little monster but never had it in 4th gear for long :)

[@RestorationObsession]

Haha that's so true. Mine meanders all over the road lol. The torque is amazing!

Hard to believe that it has been since 2014 when we took our Jeeps to Butcher Jones!

I had an 1981 CJ5, and have yet, (well till now) seen anohter jeep with same color as mine. it was stock, but not exaclty red, and not orange. Same color as this one ! I seen all of Dennins the coffe drinker vidoes, and not once have Ai seen another CJ5 with same color as mine. It was 100% original color, same as yours. i want her back SO bad ! Her Name was "Dixie Boy" !

[@benvin10365]

Are those A/T or M/T tires?
