The Jeep CJ series is a legendary range of small, open-bodied off-roaders that were built from 1944 until 1986. Over a million and a half were made over this long production run. Not many models can boast of being made under four corporate name changes, from Willys-Overland (1944) to American Motors Corporation (Jeep) in 1971. This 91,000-mile 1981 Jeep CJ-7 is special as it's undergone a full restoration with a long list of reportedly new parts. A minor discrepancy is a non-functional odometer, but the extent of the restoration is such that you don't need to worry much and can enjoy this Jeep to the fullest every day.
Sporting a new custom blue paint job with Renegade badging and decals, this 1981 Jeep CJ-7 looks every bit the vehicle for a bit of fun in the sun. It's reportedly got new Cooper Discoverer tires, a new bikini top, new lights, new windshield wipers and new mirrors. You'd really be hard-pressed to find another CJ-series Jeep in such pristine order. Even the undercarriage shows off a fresh outlook. Inside, there's reportedly a new interior sporting new seats and an all-leather soundbar that offers Bluetooth capabilities, allowing you to blast your choice of tunes. We'd recommend The Beach Boys, but hey, it's up to you. We also spy a custom center console box with an armrest between the two front seats. Behind the two seats is a spacious luggage area that can even double as a campsite should you choose to install a custom tent.
This 1981 Jeep CJ-7 is powered by a 258ci (4.2L) AMC in-line six-cylinder engine good for 98hp and 193lb-ft when new. If those figures sound low, that's because the engine is designed to be a reliable runner rather than a high-rev screaming powerhouse. A manual transmission sends a drive to the wheels. The current owner tells us that this 1981 Jeep CJ-7 is rolling on extra-duty suspension. Moreover, the fuel lines, fuel pumps, relays, wires, spark plugs, distributor caps, steering boxes, shock absorbers, struts, gaskets, and rear seals are all said to be new items. There's also a new Weber dual carburetor feeding the engine with the right diet of air and fuel.
Despite being initially conceived for military use, the original Willys Jeep was clearly destined for a much larger audience. It wasn’t long until a Civilian Jeep (CJ) model was launched, with concepts drawn up even before World War 2 ended. The seventh generation of Jeep, aka the CJ7, is a natural evolution of the original. It retains the battle-proven abilities of its military ancestor but offers a driving experience more suited for the general public. The Laredo trim took that a step higher with more amenities, including improved seats, a tachometer, chrome trim, and special graphics. Our featured car is a Jeep CJ7 Laredo, which has a host of new parts, including a recently rebuilt engine.
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.
In a landscape teeming with modern off-roaders, each more costly than the last, what they invariably lack, unlike a vintage Jeep, is character. This 1979 Jeep CJ7 restoration embodies that very essence. Evolving from the Willys Jeep's military roots, the CJ7 introduced enhanced power, comfort, and utility, wrapped in the iconic Jeep silhouette. This meticulously restored CJ7 showcases a rebuilt drivetrain, superior component upgrades, and custom enhancements, clocking less than 7,000 miles since its rebuild.
The Wagoneer is a four-wheel-drive car that laid a foundation for America's SUVs to follow. The vehicle is quiet and comfortable, yet it moves over rocks and rills with dignity. It does not sit twelve feet in the air, nor does it scare livestock and children with its loud and furious approach. It resembles a four-wheel drive American station wagon from the 1950s, presenting a more car-like approach to a segment that was used to utilitarian offerings. By the model year 1984, Jeep was under the wing of AMC and the Wagoneer was available in SJ and XJ versions. The more luxuriously equipped "Limited" was renamed the "Grand Wagoneer." What we are focusing on in this listing is a restored 1984 Jeep Grand Wagoneer that has 135,000 miles on its clock. It still retains its original engine and transmission and is available for sale in Arizona.
The Jeep CJ series is well-regarded, since it’s the first civilian product from this prolific American automaker since the famous World War II military Jeep. In fact, CJ stands for Civilian Jeep. The CJ series came about in 1944, and went through CJ-1, CJ-2, etc. The last of the series was the CJ-10A, which bowed out in 1986, to make way for the Jeep Wrangler. Along the way, the CJ-8 would emerge in 1981, as a long-wheelbase variant of the CJ-7. This particular 1982 Jeep CJ-8 Scrambler is up for sale with 120,000 miles on the clock, but was reportedly professionally restored and rebuilt approximately 10-12 years ago. It’s also got plenty of interesting features that we’d love to tell you about.
The Jeep Wrangler is a name synonymous with off-roading. It is arguably the best off-road midsize SUV to roam the terrains of planet Earth. Over the years, the Wrangler has become modernized without ever losing its inherent ruggedness. The one we have here is a 2023 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited with the optional 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-4 motor. On top of the torquier motor, this particular Wrangler also sports several optional packages and extras. Specced neatly in black and equipped with plenty of creature comforts, it is a comfy and spacious 4WD SUV. This Jeep is in impressive condition with only 22,000 reported miles on the odometer. It would be a great fit if you’re seeking a potent and capable midsize off-road SUV.
GMC and Chevy have been making pickup trucks together for ages. In fact, this stretches way back to the Chevy Task Force series and beyond. When the popular Chevy C/K series debuted in 1960, naturally, GMC would get its own variants. The GMC 1000 was the half-ton variant, equivalent to a Chevy C10 or K10. In terms of mechanicals and styling, the models were basically indistinguishable except for badging, unlike today, where the Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra have some visual differences. However, this 1966 GMC 1000 Fleetside is definitely a stand-out sort, because it’s a restomod. Packing a potent engine and some neat creature comforts, you could be the next lucky owner of this beauty. But you’d better act fast!
Do you want a classic American truck that’s distinctive and comes with a few modern creature comforts? If so, set your sights on this 1977 Chevrolet C10 Restomod that’s up for sale with us right now. Hailing from the third generation of Chevy’s popular C/K Series of pickup trucks, this example has a host of upgrades under its belt. These include a rebuilt engine with just 1,000 miles on it, plus several attractive features that weren’t offered or even around when this truck hit dealership lots way back in 1977. Read on to discover its specialties.
First generation Ford Broncos are trailblazers in their own right. That’s because the Bronco, introduced in 1965, is widely considered to be the definitive American Sport Utility Vehicle. Whether it’s the ample ground clearance, iconic shape, or removable hardtop, the Bronco is loved by millions. That’s why when Ford debuted its sixth generation in 2021 after a 25-year hiatus, there’s a significant queue of enthusiastic owners. So why not go in a different direction on your Bronco journey? Why not pick this 1969 Ford Bronco Restomod instead? It’s undergone a thorough restoration and comes with some nice modern features too.
