Here, you're looking at the first ever mass-produced four-wheel drive vehicle worldwide. The Jeep CJ was pioneered as a rugged military vehicle during World War II, so much so that it was the inspiration behind many iconic off-roaders we see today. However, the CJ was small and compact when it first came out, and it took 32 years before we finally saw a fully-fledged CJ-7. Overall, the Jeep CJ-7 is a classic SUV that is well-loved by both off-road enthusiasts and collectors alike, and it remains a popular choice for those who want a vehicle that can handle tough terrain and provide a unique driving experience.
This 1981 Jeep CJ-7 inherits a distinctive exterior design that is instantly recognizable. It features a classic boxy shape with a flat front grille and round headlights. The CJ-7 also has a notably longer wheelbase than its predecessor, the CJ-5, which allows for more interior space. This stunning example wears a beautiful Deep Maroon Metallic exterior paint combined with a Tan top. The current owner reports that all parts on this CJ-7 are original, and it's not hard to believe, given the exquisite condition of the vehicle. The interior of the Jeep CJ-7 is simple yet functional, with a focus on durability and practicality. The interior layout is with easy-to-use controls and gauges that are designed for off-road use. While some might argue that this CJ-7 might be outdated in comparison to modern creature comforts, one must keep in mind that this vehicle was designed for a completely different purpose. It was designed to go places that most other vehicles wouldn't dare, and for that, its simple tan leather seats, classic Pioneer radio, and power steering are all it needs.
Powering this 1981 Jeep CJ-7 is a 258ci (4.2L) AMC in-line six-cylinder engine that has been paired with an automatic transmission. Reports suggest that the CJ-7 has completed 92,000 miles so far, which is not much for this icon, especially after its current owner claims that all maintenance and services have been done regularly.
