The Civilian Jeep, or Willys Jeep CJ is what eventually became the Wrangler that we know and love to this day. Conceived in 1948 as a civilian variant to the popular military Jeep, the CJ ran until 1986. The CJ-7 variant was one of the latest at the time, made between 1976 and 1986. That’s what we have here today, a 1985 Jeep CJ-7 for sale from Burnsville, Minnesota. This Jeep packs around 91,747 miles on the clock and has received a 327ci V8 engine upgrade, with a Holley 4-barrel carburetor. It’s also got the Heavy-Duty Suspension Package, making it fantastic for someone who is seeking a fun but tough and capable off-road machine for weekend forays into the wilderness.
Exterior and Interior
This 1985 Jeep CJ-7 comes to you in red, and features a rather airy appearance. Yes, it’s open-topped and largely open-sided too. There’s a roll bar for some occupant protection, but otherwise, you can simply hop in and out unaided thanks to the removable doors. You can also install these if you need to drive around town, and there’s a rudimentary hood as well. But let’s face it, this lovely little thing, with its chunky off-road tires, inimitable Jeep face and overall adventurous persona is best enjoyed doorless and topless – the vehicle, that is. The vehicle’s chunky front bumper also features a set of aftermarket fog lamps for better illumination when things get dark and murky. The black interior of this 1985 Jeep CJ-7 includes aftermarket gauges, an aftermarket Sony head unit and some nice black vinyl seats. You’ll also find a center console with cup holders for added comfort and storage.
Engine
This 1985 Jeep CJ-7 packs a 327ci V8, giving it a much-needed boost in terms of on-road spunkiness.

So, you can slip into rear-wheel drive for tarmac cruising and then slot into four-wheel drive for when you hit the trails – or attempt to make your own tracks into the wild.
