Description of 1981 Jeep CJ Renegade

RESLISTED at a Great Buy It Now price!
Well, what can I say about this 1981 CJ5 Renegade that the pictures don't already say. This is a very low mileage, all-original CJ5 in rare Cameo Tan color code. Below is my full and complete disclosure of the Jeep.
  • 34,xxx all original miles. Yes, you read that correctly. Odometer has not rolled.
  • Very nice original paint and decals. Factory spot welds are visible! Always stored indoors per long time owners.
  • Never any vehicle accidents, repairs, etc.
  • Very nice Bestop nutmeg soft top, soft doors, and roll bar pad
  • Original nutmeg seats are in outstanding condition. An easy 9/10, and I'm picky
  • No major dents, scrapes, etc. VERY CLEAN body and frame.
  • No undercoating on frame or undercarriage of vehicle. Very clean!!

This Jeep lived an easy life. The body and frame are 100% rust free. I won't say you won't find a spec of very minor surface rust here or there, but there is nothing more than that anywhere on this vehicle. This Jeep lived most of it's life in Texas, and a very short life in Maine before coming here to Arizona. I know these Jeeps very well and know exactly where to look for problems. The inside of the tub under the carpet has bedliner material in there, but I'm 100% certain its not hiding any rust, rot, etc. At one point one of the previous owners decided they liked the look of the bedliner. It is a very nice, rugged, professional install.

All lights and gauges function as they should. Jeep drives very nice. It is a 36 year old vehicle and I gave it a cursory go through.I highly suggest changing out all the oils and such when you receive the vehicle as I don't know when the last fluid changes were. Vehicle does not have any active leaks, but again, it's an old vehicle subject to leak eventually.

The paint has some very minor touch ups performed by one of the previous owner. These touch ups include minor rock chips on the grill, front fenders, and just a couple of small miscellaneous locations on the Jeep. Very hard to notice the touch ups, but I like to be as transparent as possible.

I have been very thorough and accurate about this Jeep because like any vehicle buyer, I'm not happy with surprises. The Jeep looks as good in person as it does in the photos, and you won't find any surprises here (check my feedback).This Jeep is all-original and in outstanding condition. Few and far between examples are as nice as this one. Please, let me know if you have any questions PRIOR to bidding. I'm available at my cell phone 520-789-0875.
