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.
Exterior and Interior
In the metal, you’ll be surprised at how compact this 1986 Jeep CJ-7 actually is. In fact, the Jeep CJ series is known for its manageable dimensions and easy driving dynamics as a result of this. Its lovely green paint work, shiny bumpers and chromed side steps all cut a fine dash, as does its silver alloy wheels with proper off-road tires. There are no doors for that airy off-roading experience, but there is a partial convertible top for some weather protection. The interior of this 1986 Jeep CJ-7 features tan leather seats and appears to have been upgraded with an aftermarket steering wheel and a center console with cup holders. The vehicle also enjoys an aftermarket radio which is a great upgrade for those who love their music. This unit plays via newer speakers, installed behind the original speaker grilles in the dash.
Engine
Powering this 1986 Jeep CJ-7 is an AMC 258 in-line 6, we’re told. The engine is paired with a manual transmission and of course, four-wheel drive. So, this Jeep can definitely venture off-road and take on whatever you choose to throw at it. In fact, in most cases, the limiting factor will be the capabilities of its driver!
The Jeep CJ-7 represents one of the last truly analog chapters in Jeep’s storied off-road history, arriving before the Wrangler ushered in a more modern era. Produced from 1976 through 1986, the CJ-7 became one of the most recognizable civilian 4x4s ever built, blending rugged simplicity with removable-top freedom and genuine trail capability. This 1986 Jeep CJ-7, showing 158,355 miles, represents the final model year of the iconic CJ lineage, giving it added appeal among Jeep enthusiasts. Finished in a cheerful Sky Blue over a reupholstered tan leather cabin with a white hard top, this example combines vintage Jeep charm with thoughtful modern usability upgrades, making it a far friendlier classic to enjoy regularly than a bare-bones stock truck.
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!
Now here’s a Jeep CJ with a twist, and some punch too! This Hernando-based 1982 Jeep CJ-7 Restomod is up for grabs after a life of just over 97,000 miles.

Coming from the fine Jeep CJ series, it’s the forerunner of today’s Wrangler, and indeed, you can see the visual similarities between the two vehicles. Originally conceived way back in 1948, Jeep’s CJ series served until 1986 when the Wrangler took over, and has always been considered a trailblazer in American off-roaders. This vehicle is no different, and up for grabs right now. It’s a formidable classic off-roader that’s been tastefully modified and upgraded to suit an active and outdoorsy lifestyle. If that sounds like your thing, you know whom to call.
