Inspection
By 1944, World War II was coming to an end, and Willys-Overland, makers of the military Jeep knew that their bread-and-butter was going to run out. They started building prototypes for a civilian variant, which they christened CJ – or Civilian Jeep. They knew that the civilian variant would face a far tougher life than its wartime sibling. Unlike a wartime military Jeep that may live for months or even weeks, a civilian variant must lead a harsh life for years. It must be reliable, easy to maintain, and able to handle a beating. Suffice to say, Jeep knocked it out of the park with the CJ, produced from 1944 to 1986 with over 1.5 million made across several CJ series. Then, the CJ series was succeeded by what we know as the Wrangler today. That’s why this 1986 Jeep CJ-7 is not only a lovely classic American off-roader, but a piece of history. Available in Athens, Alabama, this iconic off-roader comes to you with just under 75,000 miles to its name.
