Overview of 1979 Jeep CJ-7 For Sale by Owner

Jeep's much-loved CJ series is a line-up of small, two-door off-roaders that won the hearts of Americans, as well as wherever else it was sold. Debuting in 1944, Willys-Overland created the CJ as a civilianized version of their popular wartime Jeeps. After all, with the war ending, they needed a new source of bread-and-butter. Several iterations were made in sequence, with the CJ-7 appearing in 1976. It ran for ten years, and was even built under license by South Korea's Ssangyong Motor Company. This was common, as Mitsubishi Motors Japan also got the license to build the Jeep CJ-3B much earlier. However, this 1979 Jeep CJ-7 is an all-American product that has received a new heart, and some enhancements. It's perfect if you're in search of a spunky weekend toy for those impromptu off-road forays. The vehicle reportedly has 40,000 miles on it, but the new engine counts less than 1,500 miles.

Exterior and Interior

Dressed in a Champagne paint coat, with oversized tires and a lift kit, this 1979 Jeep CJ-7 is a stunner no matter which way you look at it. We're told that it's got new lights, a waterproof casing, and comes with a soft top. Inside, there's seating for four on new seats, plus new carpeting. We also spot an aftermarket audio player, and we're told that this 1979 Jeep CJ-7 packs a custom waterproof speaker system. That's great to jazz up your tailgate parties in the wild. A further glance at the dashboard reveals what appears to be an air conditioner but we're not told of its functionality. You'll also note that the gauges and switchgear are in great condition for a vehicle of this vintage. There's also an aftermarket center console with some storage space, plus much-welcome cup holders.

Engine

This 1979 Jeep CJ-7 has received a new heart in the shape of a 4.2L in-line six-cylinder engine. This tough AMC powerplant is renowned for its strength and reliability. Drive is sent to all four wheels via an automatic transmission, assuring you of great off-road performance no matter what you decide to throw at this vintage off-roader. We're also told that the engine has received a recent oil change.
