Overview of 1978 Jeep CJ-7 For Sale by Owner

The Jeep CJ series can trace its roots back to the original Willy’s Jeep, the car that mobilized the American forces during the Second World War. Since then, the Jeep CJ has found its way into the hearts of many around the world, who appreciate this quintessential offroader for its rugged abilities and backyard mechanic simplicity. The CJ-7 was introduced in 1976 and would be the last “CJ” Jeep before the introduction of the Wrangler that we know today. Our featured 1978 Jeep CJ-7 is described as a restomod, with a 304ci V8 engine, and a whole host of improvements to be found under the metal — that’s in no small part thanks to the owner reportedly spending over $13,000 in aftermarket work alone!

Exterior and Interior

The first thing you’ll notice about this 1978 Jeep CJ-7 is that the body is finished in full fiberglass. The orange exterior also features a tilt nose hood, and you’ll find the traditional soft top with the soft doors in place too. The truck sits on aftermarket wheels, which are wrapped in Hankook 35x12.5 tires. At the rear, you’ll find a Sear spray-lined interior, as well as Reese Style Hitch LED taillights. At the front, you’ll discover 9-inch LED off-road lights to light up your path. Moving inside this 1978 Jeep CJ-7 there are new bucket seats for the driver and front passenger. The seats have been equipped with seatbelets and there’s an added roll bar, both of which improve safety when off-roading or on the public streets.

Engine

Under the hood of this 1978 Jeep CJ-7 you’ll find a 304ci V8 borrowed from an AMC. This upgraded motor features an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor. There’s a Mandrel-bent exhaust, and power is sent to all four wheels via a Turbo 400 automatic tranmission. Further upgrades come in the form of a QuadraTrac AWD system with Long Range, as well as disc brakes and power steering. Engine cooling is courtesy of an aftermarket radiator.
