I can't believe it a guy is selling a 1964 CJ5 with the Perkins Diesel desiel engine, says it runs and drives great.$5,500 is the asking price I just might have to go and check this one out.
 
That would be a cool find, hope it's in descent condition.

It looks really good in the pictures,it's in primer and he saying everything is almost done. With it being so close I just have to take the drive and check it out. I understand they did not make a whole lot of the CJ's with the Perkins Diesel desiel engine.
 
Make sure you get some underhood pics.
 
i will get a bunch of pictures. I have read a few articles about these and het are pretty cool!!!:chug:

You had to know when you posted this that we'd be like: :drool:

The weekend starts at 12:00:01 Saturday by the way. :D
 
It's such a rare jeep I only hope we can made a deal and I bring this special Jeep home with me the weekend, @ 12:02 :D:D It would look good parked next to the 1960 CJ.
 
Im rooting for you. After looking at your other build I dont think youd be cutting it up to fit 44 in. Ground Hawgs. :chug:
I think your the right guy for just such a Cj. :cool:

If we can make a deal I would have to restore it to factory condition no 44 mudders. :D
