The only thing I have to ad is that Dennis is one of the most skilled and coolest guys on this planet....
Greetings from Germany....
King of all things Jeep.
My very 1st Jeep was a 76 CJ5, 258, 3 speed. Manual everything, no power nothing. 4 wheel drum brakes. I yanked it out of farmers field and fixed it up.
I LOVED THAT THING. Sold it to pay off my schooling.
In my 54 years I’ve never owned a Jeep. I’ve had Matchbox Jeeps, built plastic models, Tonka Jeeps, and drew them when I was a kid. Thanks Dennis for your contribution to the Jeep community. Love your videos!
Dennis Collins is the Mark Worman of the Jeep world!
I have an 81 Jeep scrambler CJ8 with an iron Duke When I got it it had 260 on it now it's nearing 8 Love it
I learn more by accident from Dennis than any book or blog on purpose.
Do you sell some of the Jeep’s for people to restore them self if so please get a hold of me
Same!!!
Dennis, your enthusiasm is off the chart and I love it! Thank you, I glean so much from you.
Mr Collins. You’re a class act. I mean that sincerely.
The first vehicle I ever bought was a 1985 Jeep CJ-7. Not sure of the original color, but it was metallic maroon with a hard top and dark tinted windows, absolutely loved it. I think I paid around $2k for it in 1994.
One weekend I had driven it a few hours from home to my old college for a reunion, the morning I was supposed to leave, it wouldn't start. Had a local garage tow it in to see what was wrong. They knew I was from out of town, so they literally hammered the choke wide open and drained the transmission and transfer case. Told me it was only firing on 5 cylinders and I couldn't drive it in that condition, and wanted a ton of money to fix it. I left anyway and eventually made it home, and after my usual mechanic looked at it, he told me what was going on. I wish I knew then what I know now about cars. Had to sell it for pennies because I couldn't afford to fix it. Transmission and transfer case were smoked.
I learned years later that garage got closed down for scamming people.
And this is crazy...... it's a 1983 A-TEAM SPECIAL it's the one in the opening credits where it flips over and no one dies HOLY GRAIL OF JEEPS.
Never ever have a jeep in my life, not driven one I don’t think I have ride in one even. Thanks for the video.
Every JEEP on the lot is without a doubt the rarest, most sought after vehicle ever produced on Earth and the planet Mars.
Best part about a jeep junkyard? Never run out of places to set your coffee.
This guy loves his job. God bless him. I hate my job.
The first '83 has the "Holy Grail" wooden plank front bumper option on it. 😂
Pressure treated too !
I would say the the 83 50000th one is a true "Holy Grail"
Exactly. There are several h code cj’s. There is only one last one
I had 1977 CJ7 with the V-8 3-Speed. Bought it in the late 80's from a guy at work. Thing was a beast. Sold it to by my first Harley Sure Do Miss That Jeep. wish i could find another.
This dude is the balls. Learning more about wrangler stuff everyday. What a crazy cool rabbit hole.
always bring them back to life
Dennis, thanks for sharing. Awesome video and you have a trifecta of holy grail CJ-5’s!
I swear,,,,,,,,,, Dennis IS mr. JEEP!!!!!!!!!!!
Holy grail, the 75’s
My Daughter has a 1979 CJ5 with the 4 speed. We just rhino lined the tub and got all her stock gauges working. She is saving up for a soft top. Love her Jeep. Top Jeep is the 304.
In my opinion Dennis shouldve had his on show on discovery channel. That 83 CJ 5 is nice I'd says it's your holy grail
A true auto enthusiast,love's them all.
All of them are holy Grail
When I was 17 my dad gave me a used but good 77 cj5 golden eagle V8 with Levis trim pkg, it was awesome and would go anywhere no power brakes or steering, it was like a goat. I broke so many parts that I ended up spending more on parts than the 3G's my dad bought it for. I wish I would have never sold it. I broke or spun at least five rear axles! luv your u tubes vids, keep it up!
I was born in 79 I always wanted a 79 and that is the one I think is gonna be the next holey grail if I ever get one and have the money too I have an 08 my dad had the 83 I love them all too but your right the cj5s are the best
And all my dad ever used if and when he got stuck wasn't a which no lockers no sway bar disconnect nope just a simple 2x4 about 3-4 feet long with 32"s and a 4" lift nothing stopped it
The copper H code 304 Renegade. It is like the one that my dad had when I was growing up.
Nice gunrack mounted to the windshield in the 81 Renegade V8 😎🇺🇸
Oh and cant forget the grenade shifter knob.
Awww man! I loooove Cj5's. I had a '78 and just like he said it had a SUPER low 1st gear! Even in high range that thing in idle speed would crawl up the side of a house! I so much want another❤
E-type, 190sls, and a few big Healeys just chillin in the lot.
Jeepers Creepers thanks for saving those awesome vehicles
I’ve never considered myself a Jeep guy, but it’s amazing the stuff you forget about. In the early 80’s I worked for a parking company, and we used Jeeps as our work trucks, we even plowed snow with them. We had two, one was a red hard top automatic, the other was a way older (side mounted spare) soft top 3 speed. I pretty much learned how to drive a standard on the old Jeep. Just watching this brought back all those memories instantly.
Dennis, I love your passion for those jeeps. They are a gold mine!!
I might be in the opposite column of many, but I would LOVE to see the Black w/Nutmeg all fixed up. I bet that is a gorgeous Jeep in all its glory.
total agreement
I’m with ya there, but I don’t think any Jeep in those conditions should die!! We have enough reproduction parts available for the 5’s & 7’s that we shouldn’t need to part many of them out unless you need transfer case, axles, and few other original parts that we can rebuild but not replace. I’m a Jeep fan thru and thru and we need to save every single Jeep possible!
I just bought a '81 one owner CJ5 with 43K on the odometer. Not in bad shape but it's been sitting outside for the last 12 years. Good thing it's a California Jeep. Best $800 I ever spent.
In the late 80s i had a rusted out 1977 cj5 .i paid 400 bucks for it and loved it.i still think about that and miss it almost every day.
Love Dennis’s knowledge and enthusiasm...
Over the years ive this man buy ludacrisly rare and expensive vehicles and it warms my heart to see you nerding out on apme Jeeps... God has blessed America.. keep up the good work
H code 304, I own two early CJ5’s a 1961 and a 1970, love them all!
This is why Dennis has done so well i have not seen anyone as passionate for what they do well done
Just for you to know where each and every one of these Jeeps are is outstanding.
1979 CJ5 Golden Eagle was the Pinnacle. "EH" vin code is what to look for. The Roll bar mounting points is the tell.
I like that you fix them save and restore
DisneyJeep!! Wonderful to walk between that beautiful Jeeps. Thanks Dennis for sharing.
Not really fussed about the "Holy Grail" thing, but man that black one with the nutmeg stripes makes me all tingly in my special places.
I am restoring a 1982 Jeep CJ 5 (AMC) the year I graduated from High school.
I had a 1977 CJ5 and I put power steering and tilt in it. The upper tilt column bolted right up and the steering box bolted right up to the frame. The wiring harness plugged right in. I had to make a bracket to mount the power steering pump and a 10in extension to hook up the upper and lower column together. The tilt column came out of a 1978 Firebird and the steering box came out of a 1977 camaro.
Jeep heaven more like it...
Dennis is the book knowledge
This guy knows his jeeps. Need a jeep, sure he can get you one.
In the military (1987) I bought a Jeep from my First Sergeant, it was an 1978 V8 with a stick, I'd do anything to find that, or Ronald Reagan's blue Scrambler to restore
🤘😎
Born 77' ..and you had 2 good example..💪✌️♥️
I really enjoy your knowledge about jeeps.
Thankyou dennis
I guess I have a really, really holy grail. A 1980 CJ5, factory black, 304 v-8, T176, dana 300, power steering and disk brakes.
I had an 83 CJ7 Blue lifted 35" monster mudders. Exellent Jeep.
Excellent!
My first car was a yellow ‘76 CJ5 with the original V8 and 3 speed manual. Had a lot of fun in that Jeep.
Great Videos Dennis - thank you for the knowledge
I love these comparisons. I have a rust free ‘80 CJ5 Laredo and enjoy learning all I can about them.
I recall different friends in 76 buying CJ’s. Renegade was awesome, as most made do with the standard model.
I had a 66 CJ5 with a 4 cylinder engine, 3 speed, with 3 gear shifts. I also had a 79 renegade with a 6 cylinder engine and with a 3 speed. I loved my jeeps.
Listening to Dennis with all that knowledge better than any book makes me wis I lived in America with plenty off classic vehicles to find restore and use keep up the good work watching from Glasgow Scotland 🏴🏴
Yep ... I want that '77. Super cool!
Amazing video. Could watch these for hours on end...
Learned so much!
81 H code 304. Wicked!!
Great video Dennis !! Jeep museum ,what a lot of amazing jeeps
Guys that know their business are unreal, always enjoy the videos!!!
I'm working on Jeep number 15 and have used collins brothers for a few years now. Straight up good people for parts and help.
So happy to see Dennis has a few YJ's in the yard
Great stuff Dennis, Watching your coffee walk makes me really miss my 78 CJ5 also a V8 with the 3 speed. Bought it new, it was Silver.
I had an '81 CJ5 6 cyl. in Hawai'i in the 90s, great little vehicles!!
I had a 78 CJ5 Renegade. It was cream with a tan top and tan Levi interior. I miss that thing every day.
Dennis-81, H-code, by far. Had one of the last V-8 CJ-7’s. Unfortunately, I had to let it go. I now currently have a 4 cyl 84, with 45,000 miles on it. All original, other than tires & wheels. You’re gonna see it within the next year. Nobody other than CBJ is gonna touch this one-I have plans🤔😎
Cool cool cool, like CJ5s, I have a 1974 CJ5 factory PS and PB and mellow yellow paint, AMC 304 V8, but it has been changed in its life, now it’s white with red flames and different seats, a 1976 AMC 360 engine with an edelbrock 4 barrel carburetor, 8000 lbs winch, 11.5 x 32 tires, 3” lift, it is a beast! I love it
Thank you Mr Jeep 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 amazing video 👍🏼
I own one of 81 Blue CJ-5 with AMC 304 with T176 and 300 with good care of it. It is the last year of CJ-5 with V8.
Dennis needs a coffee assistant 😁
Lmfao😂🤣👌
Classic.
Cmon , Deniis is cool. A down to earth guy. He's probably the 1st guy at the shop every day!
Love this video. My son just purchased a 2015 Wrangler Unlimited Sahara with the 3.6 ltr and 6 speed Manuel and he absolutely loves it. He calls the trani a millennial anti theft system
Brings bck alot off memories growing up learing how to drive w/ compliments off my dads 1979 cj5.. what made it a special jeep to us its the first ever brand spanking new jeep that my dad purchased pick up off the dealers lot.. it was'nt his first but it was his first brand new straight off the lot.. it was yellow white top w/white lowbck seats and white stock wheels.. no tailgate.. no factory flares.. bye the time it was my driver to last senor year off high school class off 85.. its went through (2) cu$tom paints.. god i miss that jeep..
Hello: I loved the Coffee Walk !!!!
I have a 1980 CJ5 with a 304 , T176 , Dana 300 I've owned it for 36 years
Super nice play ground that you have
Like the White One on the left at 3:35
Definitely the Black with Nutmeg. That would look so cool with a total resoration....
My favorite out of all the jeeps I saw is the 1982 Copper Scrambler that you walked by a few times. Once @ 6:27. AWESOME!!!
LOL the Collins Bros. fitness plan...walk back n fourth in the lot between each model year.
79 for me. A vintage year.
Working on a 1980 Renegade CJ5. Got it from an old man I looked after. He bought it new in Nov. 1979. I'm the 2nd owner. Wouldn't trade it for anything. Even has original bikini top.
I just restored a 81 scrambler, I sprayed it in the new firecracker red. She is stunning, also it’s a 4 speed with tailgate. 🇺🇸
I like Dennis, but Jeeps are rocking, rollin’ rust buckets!
The holy Grail jeep , is the one u proudly own !!
💯🤟
love Coffee Walks
I grew up with a 1978 golden ginger metallic CJ5 levi edition with a 304 in Yuma Arizona. I got to drive it in high school and spent all my money from my summer job modifying it. It is still there for me to inherit someday. I got to choose between that and my dad's fairly nicely restored 1939 Dodge sedan to inherit. I picked the jeep. It has power steering, but it might have been aftermarket. If that is aftermarket, it didn't happen in my lifetime. Makes me wonder about that H-code, I'll have to go check for that next time I'm down. The original paint is in fantastic condition, being kept in a garage in dry Yuma, Arizona. Would like to get some original Levi seats put back in though. If I bring it up here to Washington state, which will be a little sad as its really a desert jeep, I'll need to get a good de-humidifier for the garage. I hope it stays in my family for generations.
That CJ5 you said first as "Holy grail" looks like my childhood dream jeep that side on the side of tibbs rd. Dalton, Ga. for years. Always loved the look.
Love the CJ's!
