Old school options: So, you want manual steering, a/c and a 304 in cherry red? No problem! Modern options: Well, if you want a/c, youre going to need to get the comfort package, remote start and 20" alloy wheels, oh, and it doesn't come in the colors you want. No, there arent any engine options, but, for $200 you can get these cool floor mats!
LOL! Obsoleted by the JL Wrangler. They all come with a/c, there's five different combinations of engines (3.6L w/o mild hybrid system, 3.6l w/mild hybrid system, 2.0 turbo w/o mild hybrid system, 2.0 turbo w/mild ybrid system, 3.0l turbodiesel), two different transmissions (6 speed Aisin manual or 8 speed ZF automatic), and oh yeah, unfortunately some of those combinations only come on certain model lines and you can't get some engines with the manual. BTW, all of the JL Wrangler engines make more power than the AMC 304. Engine technology has come a long ways since 1970, when the AMC 304 was introduced.
@@isaac2152 The only dudes snapping axles on 33s are the clowns hitting rocks going like 40 or the ones who send it in the dunes and jump their shit like it's a built trophy truck lol. This new gen Dana axle is stronger than the last gen by far, even when you take the FAD weak point into consideration.
Been working on my old Jeep for 6 years restoring it getting close to finishing it up 1973 cj5 jeep T-18 transmission reverse over and up has a factory looking home made transmission cover with a dana 18 transfer case twin shifter both drive lines on the passenger. Tons of New old Stock parts love it.
Those were the days of real men. Jumping a jeep without a roll bar while using only lap belts and doorless.. And a factory video at that. This is the way america used to be. Free to build and drive whatever and where you want. Simpler times indeed.

I think that they were real. If you take a look at alot of military testing films from the 40's those guys took ALOT of risks and high jumps. I'd hate to think about how their backs were afterwards.
Bought one for $300 and another for $450, the $300 one was in pieces but had most of the parts (1965) the $450 one was in rougher condition but had a hardtop and all new wiring harness, wich was worth more than the jeep.
I just bought a roached out 1963 Willy's CJ5. It sits right next to my 2004 Rubicon in the garage. It doesn't run at the moment, it's ugly as sin, and it's beat to hell, but I love it. I'm considering a ground up restoration back to stock including the F134 Hurricane engine. I plan on a complete UA-cam video series and posting it on my website as well so everyone can follow along. Once complete, I intend on wheeling it at our Jeep club events.
Got an 81 CJ5 for sale, mostly original, 2.5l Little Duke! runs and starts great, redundant fuel pump systems, electric and mechanical. Starting at $6500/neg.
The CJ5 and Tonka, for me they're almost one and the same, especially the Renegade in the video, which is almost identical to the Tonka one I had as a kid. Love it when the guy's hat flies off at 2:58, not so much at 4:15 or so because that roll bar looks awfully close to the driver's head. I think it actually hit it at 4:28.
When equipped with the 304, it will pop a wheelie in low range with a clutch drop. Only.truck that will yank a tire from the factory that I know of. Love this
@NemeanLion You bring up some good points that I agree with (after all, I do drive a small two door Wrangler with two kids car seats that fill up the rear so much so that if I go grocery shopping with them I have to take everything out before I can tilt the seat forward..) but I'm glad that there's a four door for families. And anything that helps sell jeeps to future generations and keeping the brand going is good. Not saying you're wrong but they're STILL the representative of the modern icon!
Boy oh boy do I miss my '71 cj5 V/8 what a torque beast it was. Now I enjoy my '89 wrangler not even close but still enjoy wheeling. Osha and all our safety committee's have stuck the fun out of life.
Yeah, I know, but these 'safety' standards are what kill people nowadays IMO. People have forgotten how to drive for themselves. They speed more, brake suddenly, peel out just to stop at a red light thirty feet in front of them. Its a shame that we are 'saved' from ourselves so much. The wish for the modern CJ is simply a wish for something smaller, simpler and still more fuel efficient, something that Chrysler is considering nowadays.
It's a film for dealers. The voice over refers to the potential buyers of this vehicle. Talking to the sellers from the manufacturers. I bet they played this reel at a car show for dealers?
Have a 75 cj5 with a 232 3 speed no power steering no power brakes, no tailgate, only has the amp and oil pressure gauges as options Ig lol, it’s a beast I’ve 4 wheeled the hell out of it and done minimal maintenance, fluids, including the diffs and tcase oil. Never gonna sell her considering j paid $800 running and driving
@DX721 Well, there are still plenty of jeeps out there that need restoring... and while they have been modernized, there is plenty of heritage and the looks that Jeep has kept. :)
Yes, I think about the future of the car restoration business often. How many people will ever want to rebuild a 'classic' Toyota Prius or Hyundai Elantra one day?
While I was in high school, we use to drive up the abutment on the over pass near school since it was a shorter way to get there. At the time, the deputy sheriff didn't think it was too funny. We told him we were so committed to school that we needed to be there early. About ten years later he told us that it was one of the funniest excuses he ever heard!
I agree to an extent. Jeep needs to simplify, simplify and simplify IMO. I'm glad (and are so many jeep fans and lovers) of the fact that Jeep has wisely kept up some of the nods to the legend and tradition of the jeep in function and appearance, removable doors, folding WS, etc... but I wish that they would make the Wrangler a CJ again and make them as deviously simple as they began. Make them as simply as possible and watch them sell... Or is that impossible nowadays?
It's all about the driver anyway. The Wrangler is supposed to be a dangerous vehicle, but when have you EVER seen one in an "on road" accident? People who own Wranglers aren't looking for speed and handling. They know the limits of thier vehicle. Every top ten list i've seen of deadly vehicle accidents, the Wrangler is never on it.
@JSSJeepin Plus, more parts are made for the TJ because it is the off road Jeep, arguably off road vehicle of chose, because it is simple, has one of the best motors jeep has ever made (4.0 liter). The JKs have that 3.6 liter. I have driven one to me they feel under powered. Hey im not trying to bash JKs i really do like them i think they are a sweet rig. But I know the TJ will be the Jeep most serious guys pick.
I just bought a 73 Renegade with the 304 v8 I'm looking for a good body tub and v8 emblem (I only have 1). Mine runs great.. but the body is falling off and full of holes from rust and abuse most of the mounting points are broken from the body, the frame is solid. It's full option with the fan switch, air, defrost just like in the commercial I'm doing a frame off restoration and saving as much original parts as possible, I also need the windshield frame. Thanks.
@JSSJeepin i disagree. The JKs and TJs are both very capable rigs, and yes you do have a point that CJ5s and 7s have leafs, and YJs and XJs leafs in the rear. A leaf wont give as much suspension travel as a coil, but when you lift a TJ or JK with the 4 wheel coils, it shifts the weight weird on rocks. I own a TJ and an XJ and i have done some off roading with some people in a club. There is a CJ5 that keeps right up with us. One person actually wants to put leafs on his TJ. Feels more stable.
I think they should put P.T.O. on the front and rear of every jeep . People should drive them and use them as they were designed to be used instead of as toys for rock climbing. Fine if they want to do that but make the jeep once again as an on and off road tool not toy
This was my very first vehicle. Granted, I bought it in 2001. But how I wish I never sold it. I don't have any of the option here though, air conditioning! Seriously. My Jeep was a simple buggy, no options, with a big ass 304.
In 1973, over 50,000 people died in traffic accidents, out of a population of around 200 million. Last year roughly 30,000 people died in traffic accidents, out of a population of around 300 million. By all measures current vehicles are far safer than 1973 vehicles. I wish I had that CJ-5 -- but I would add a roll cage/seat harnesses first thing, and trailer it to where I wheeled it offroad.
Impossible nowadays. Federal law requires the electronic stability control, ABS brakes, wheel tire pressure sensors, electronic engine controls, front and rear crush zones, airbags, etc. in the current Jeep Wrangler.
@NotoriousJam Hardly. The YJ couldn't even keep up with a stock TJ, let alone a JK. The JK has more suspension travel, more ground clearance, better angles and real traction control which makes it far better than a TJ, which the YJ is leagues behind. While the Wrangler may not be as simple as a toothpick anymore, it will wheel circles around a CJ, and make a YJ and TJ sweat.
@cessna40 completely agree. if the jeep corperation wanted to make vehicles that ANYBODY would drive, they need to make them less expensive, a base model jeep should cost no more than 10,000. make all these computer traction control features optional, that kinda stuff. i mean really there is no reason for a jeep to cost 20,000+ for something the driver is likely to beat the hell out of.
If you rolled one of these, not one thing would be buggered except a few scratches from rocks. If you rolled a Modern 4WD of these days, It would scrunch up like paper.
Yep. I sorta wish that I could buy a new Jeep without all that stuff that makes it big and bloated. Something small and simple like the old CJ5. But the law is the law. Sigh!
You can order everything from JC Whitney to build from the ground up and the way you want! Mine is a 1980 -7 I wouldn't have a wrangler if it was free. But I do have longest arm suspension. GO EVERYWHERE!!!
@@cjjenson8212 But then you still have an old Jeep. With all the issues that come with owning an old car -- high maintenance costs and difficulties getting it smogged, especially once the engine and transmission wear out and you decide to replace them with a modern engine and transmission rather than the hard-to-find AMC parts. It's a great project car if that's what you want, or a great offroad-only vehicle if that's what you want, but you're still talking a lot of time and/or money to keep it reliable and on the road.
@@badtux NO! What you have is a brand new jeep with new engine and trans,Tcase with 250% reduction. You have KYB shocks with long arm suspension. New seats. Air conditioning. But most important you have the "jeep wave" which you don't get in a Chrysler. For around 15-20,000 depending on the powertrain you get. In my 7 I run a Nissan 2.4 engine bumped to 150hp and 178ft lbs torque. With 28 mpg avg. The original 4.2 inline 6 had 100 hp and 180ftlbs but only got 13 mpg. Plus the joy of building yourself.
@BrenGun1971 I have heard of a diesel they are making for the army. but yes, they need to put some balls under the hood via factory. I saw this jeep on the Jeepforum website. I can't post the link but just search for Rubicon 6.1 hemi build on jeepforum's site.
@PeteWaddell X2, more likely nowadays you'd break alot of expensive plastic parts... Too much plastic in the name of safety if you ask me. Bring back a flat metal dash and a design that encourages people to drive slower like the jeep in general and you'd have less fatalities without living in a nanny state.
CHRISTOLEMIGHTY!!! That jump was horrendous, the guy lost his flippin hat mid air..lol, if I done this in my CJ with that 4 rough country lift id be in traction for a year!!! LMAO, but it is the original off road king for sure, nothing like a REAL jeep..a CJ
