After many miles and many years, this CJ-5 still stands at attention
CJs are timeless. The older they get, the better they get. The fact is, the Jeep CJ is an icon that has a secure hold on the history of the Jeep culture we experience today. Todd Harveston of Vista, California, recognized this and kept his ’78 Jeep CJ-5 since he was a teenager. For nearly three decades, Todd has built, rebuilt, changed, and upgraded the Jeep, and it has seen many miles and plenty of trails.
During that time, Todd continued to build and rebuild his AMC 304 V-8– powered Jeep. “It seems to get a facelift every five years or so,” he explained. His primary goal has always been to pay attention to the little details, do the work right, and have a good time with it. Harveston built the entire rig in his own shop.
