Hey All,
Looking to sell my 76 CJ5 that has 75,000 miles on it.
It needs a top and seats, I have the rods/pipes for the soft top and
the original floor mats. I also have an extra rim for the spare tire.
It is not rusted other than surface rust and the floor boards and
body mounts are fine.
Asking $2500 USD.
Here's a couple pictures I put up: http://www.grandshelters.com/jeep

What engine does this have? Also, what is the condition of major running
gear?

The engine is the strait six [258 cu.in. I think] and the running
gear is nice and tight. The trany is one of those heavy ones with the
syncros that take a while for the gears to match up.
It's been long enough now that I'll drop the price to $2000 USD. Any
less than that and It's to good a toy and I'll keep it myself.

This vehicle is starting to look interesting. Unfortunately, other
commitments prevent me from buying it at this time. If it has a T18
transmission, somebody here ought to snap it up...

I don't know this one [trany] for sure either, it shifts like the
grain trucks I used to drive as a kid is all I know. It's heavy duty.
