1975 Jeep CJ5 - Apple Green
A One-Of-A-Kind ClassicThere is no doubt that Jeep is an American icon. Almost anyone from just about any part of the world knows what a Jeep is, what it’s good for, and what it looks like. This apple-green ’75 CJ5 that belongs to our pal, Mike Tarvin, of Glendale, Arizona, is a true classic. The first time the green Jeep caught our eye we thought it would fit many people’s ideal of a perfect Jeep. A true Jeeper’s Jeep. The round headlights circled in chrome, wide tires on classic wheels, a retro white top, and V-8 rumble all point towards an attitude and feel that is pure Jeep and all-American. The truth is we first caught a glimpse of the CJ5 at the 2012 TDS Desert Safari and quickly realized that we had run into Mike and his wife Donna before in the deserts of Arizona in one of Mike’s other Jeeps. Mike is a longtime Jeeper and has owned this Jeep (amongst others) for 21 years, ever since driving past it at a used car lot near downtown Phoenix. Mike had to buy it because it reminded him of his first Jeep ride in his cousin’s then-brand-new green CJ5 with a white top. Thus started a long relationship between a guy and his Jeep. Over the years, Mike has spent lots of time behind the wheel of this Jeep and has tweaked it a little here and there to suit his preferences but kept it basically as it was, only changing a few things and adding a few details that help it work.
