Overview of 1983 Jeep CJ-7 V8 For Sale by Owner

Holding true American off-roader DNA, Jeep is a company that needs no introduction, and neither does this 1983 Jeep CJ-7. Based on the military jeeps it produced, the CJ series was literally made as the civilian four-wheeler and held a lot of the military Jeeps' design elements, especially the front end. Jeep's military ruggedness remained part of the CJ-7 and has survived four decades and has undergone a few enhancements during its lifetime, including a replaced motor and redone underbody. With roughly 2,900 miles clocked on the vehicle since its swap, this Jeep continues to perform well and is ready for any challenge that may be put in its way.

Exterior and Interior

Straying away from the utilitarian-military colors, this Jeep comes in a turquoise exterior that helps it stand out from the crowd. Not that it needs to, with its design and inherent character instantly standing out from the regular commuter cars seen on the road. The current owner reports that the new paint was done around 2019-2020 and matches the color of the interior dashboard. A quick walkaround and you'll notice the AVM wheels wrapped in Irok Super Swamper tires, the Warn Winch, Fender flares, and a host of other enhancements that help accentuate the barebones utilitarian look and feel of this CJ-7's exterior. This particular vehicle comes only with the Bikini top, which matches well with the aesthetic usually desired in a Jeep and helps with the exterior transition smoothly into the interior, especially with the partial doors that this vehicle comes with. Climbing inside, you'll immediately notice the contrast set with the color-matched dashboard and black interior, which works well with blending this Jeep's exterior and interior. The seats are comfortable and plush, allowing you to settle in while enjoying the open breeze. There's no A/C, of course, but why would you need one when you have the open air blowing around you as you drive?

Engine

This Jeep enjoys new life breathed into it thanks to the 350ci crate V8 motor strapped to the front, along with an automatic transmission that was swapped along with the engine. Thanks to that, this CJ-7 has odes of power at its disposal, able to handle anything that you could throw at it while behind its aftermarket steering wheel.

1986 Jeep CJ-7

VERIFIED SELLER
$26,500

This gray 1986 Jeep CJ-7 comes from the very last year of Jeep CJ production, a legacy that began in 1944. Willys-Overland knew that with World War II coming to a conclusion, their military Jeep sales would dry up significantly. So, they turned it into a tough and capable civilian off-roader, and the rest, as they say, is history. Produced through several iterations, the CJ finally bowed out in 1986, giving way to a nameplate that we all know and love; Wrangler. So, this 56,081-mile machine from Mount Gilead, Ohio is a piece of history and also includes a removable hardtop with the sale. Yes, one of the CJ and Wrangler’s party pieces is a removable hardtop that can be replaced with a variety of options, including full soft tops, bikini tops, or simply left topless. This machine comes with the 4.2-liter AMC straight six under the hood, paired with a 4-speed manual box and of course, four-wheel drive!
