GR Auto Gallery is excited to present this 1978 Jeep CJ5 Renegade Resto Mod that blends classic Jeep character with serious off road capability. Originally finished as a Forest Green Renegade with gold decals and a Levi’s Edition tan interior, this CJ5 now wears a clean white gel coat finish accented by bold blue Phoenix Renegade graphics and a gray and black interior. The fiberglass body was installed in the mid 1990s and still presents very well, while the OEM frame has been professionally reinforced to handle everything this Jeep is capable of. Sitting on factory style wheels with a 3 inch Skyjacker lift, this CJ5 has a purposeful stance that looks right at home both on the trail and at a weekend cruise.
Power comes from an AMC 304 V8 paired with a T176 4 speed manual transmission, giving this CJ5 a raw and engaging driving experience. Fuel delivery has been upgraded with EFI TBI for improved reliability and drivability, while a Dana 300 transfer case equipped with a TeraFlex 4:1 low range provides serious crawling capability. Front and rear ARB air lockers combined with onboard air make this Jeep incredibly capable in tough terrain. Dual exhaust adds the right amount of sound without overpowering the driving experience.
Inside, this CJ5 has been thoughtfully upgraded for both comfort and safety while still keeping its rugged roots. The tub has been coated in Rhino liner for durability, and a full roll cage with three point front seat belts adds confidence whether on or off road. A custom dash cleans up the interior and modernizes the layout, while the gray and black interior materials feel durable and purpose built. Multiple top options are included, featuring a gray Bestop Super Top, a solid bikini top, a mesh bikini top, and a rain gear cover, making this Jeep adaptable to any weather or season.
The CJ5 is one of the most iconic Jeep platforms ever built, and Renegade models have always been among the most desirable. This example stands out thanks to decades of thoughtful upgrades, multiple refreshes over time, and a clear focus on usability rather than just appearance. Whether you are looking for a capable trail rig, a summer cruiser, or a classic Jeep with modern reliability and serious hardware, this CJ5 delivers a unique blend of history, performance, and personality.
