Checking out an 81 CJ5

Yeah--like I need another vehicle. The Rover is gone, and I replaced it with a 96 Jeep Cherokee Country for the wife--(I love the old Cherokees, I had an 88 and a 91 that were great). So as I was checking out craigslist, a pretty nice 81 CJ5 10 blocks away popped up--he lists tons of recent work and the body looks nice--esp. for this area. It is a Renegade with new tires, clucth TO bearing, bestop w/doors, seat covers, everything works, etc. etc. for 3300.00.

The only negative is that it has the 151 CI engine.

am I crazy? what do you guys think of the CJs? I know the 7 is "better" because of the wheelbase and other upgrades, but I think this would be another fun toy for winter and summer
