1979 Jeep CJ5 Golden Eagle Sport Utility 2-Door 5.0L

1979 Jeep CJ5 Golden Eagle.   This was an original Golden Eagle.   29. 00 miles on the ticker?  I have the original gold spare wheel and tire that has never been on the pavement.   It had the tach and clock common to the upgrade.   It was repainted by the second owner.   It had new Golden Eagle decals at that time.   The jeep has power steering with a chrome power steering pump.   A new power disc brake kit from Collins Bros jeeps with slotted high performance rotors.   Jeep stops straight and drives great.  No steering slop.    Original 3 speed T-150 transmission rebuilt with new synchronizers and bearing kit  Shifts like new.  Dana 20 transfer case works great.  The jeep came originally with a 304 V8 which is available.   The engine was replaced with a Tuff Dawg 365hp AMC Jeep 360cid crate engine.   See their web site ($5. 00) . com.   The engine only has a few hundred miles on it.   This is a Sunday driver that only gets out once or twice a month when it is pretty.   The jeep sounds great.   Impressive horsepower in a light weight vehicle.   Engine has a power master chrome alternator.   Aluminum pulleys from bullhead. com.   New Holley Street Dominator Caburator.   Hooker ceramic coated headers.   Chrome Hooker side pipe mufflers not glass packs.   Sounds good but not too loud.   New power master high torque starter.  New centerforce clutch and pressure plate.   Mickey Thompson Classic Lock wheels with 33" ProComp tires.   Tires like new.   Bestop low back seats.   They just feel right in a vintage classic.   Retractable factory lap belts.   SS dash. The original dash was cut for speakers.   It looked bad so I replaced it.    All the gauges work!.   I sent the factory clock off and had it rebuilt for $200.   This is the original clock not aftermarket.   The color was off on the after market clock.   It has a factory oil and volt gauge.   Same deal. after market color doesn't match instrument cluster at night.   Fuel gauge works. Factory tach works.   The windshield washer works. see photo.   The parking brake light works.   It has Hella headlights with an upgraded relay wiring pack for them.   This is a slick kit.   Lights are brighter than new vehicle headlights.   If it is on the Jeep it works as good as or better than factory.   There is no rust on this Jeep.   It spends its life in a very plush garage.   Bestop super top with the good doors that convert to half doors.   Bikini top.   I have only had the top on it a couple of times.   I only drive it when it is warm and pretty although the top and heater work great.   New high performance heater blower motor.   Too much to list.

  I didn't think I would ever sale it but I want to put the money in another airplane.   I am not a dealer. I am a jeep connoisseur.   I have owned one or another cj for the last 30 years.   I bought this jeep because it was the real deal. solid honest. factory V8. bullet proof 3 speed. dana 20. no rhino lined over rust jeep.   I just made it better.   Nothing to do to it but drive and enjoy.   evanmarble@bellsouth. net
