About this 1979 Jeep CJ-5

VIN: J9F83AH837883

Rare 1979 Jeep CJ-5 Silver Anniversary Edition – 304 V8 – Well Preserved

Description: Own a piece of Jeep history. This 1979 Silver Anniversary Edition Renegade is a remarkably preserved survivor. Driven primarily at a Colorado hunting cabin for decades and garage-kept since 2012, this CJ-5 combines rugged V8 power with investment-grade rarity.

The Highlights: Engine: Factory-correct AMC 304 V8. Runs strong, sounds great.

Condition: Professional undercoating from the original owner has kept the frame and underbody incredibly clean. Only minor surface rust present—zero structural concerns.

Maintenance: Turn-key ready. Recent work includes a brand-new clutch (clutch, pressure plate, throw-out bearing, and linkage) and new shocks.

Status: Everything is in working order. No leaks. No defects. Standard maintenance (plugs, wires, fluids) is fully up to date.

Pricing: Listed at $11,900 for a quick sale—well below fair market value for a V8 Anniversary Edition in this condition.
