1977 Jeep CJ

(Re-listing with a $10,000 reserve. Previous winning bidder withdrew due to personal reasons – never met me to see the Jeep and didn’t withdraw because of anything to do with the Jeep.)Very special CJ-7 Jeep that gets compliments and attention every time I drive it. In fact, we used it in the parade, for my son’s high school Homecoming two years in a row. I purchased this Jeep in California, so it’s almost completely rust free, including the floor pans and underbody. It always starts and runs 100%. No fluid leaks at all. Up-to-date on all maintenance. Just passed VA inspection and everything is working: lights, signals, horn, wipers, heat, defrost, winch, 4WD, etc.Original AMC V-8 engine, 360 4bbl (code 909P10) that was professionally rebuilt in 2005 (approximately 9,000 miles ago). Four-speed T-18 manual transmission, with a granny gear. I’ve babied this Jeep – kept in the garage, never driven in bad weather, the only off-roading I did was a on some gravel trails. I’ve owned it for four years and only put two thousand miles on it. Approximately 80” tall with the hardtop on.This Jeep was “built” by the previous owner to crawl rocks at Moab and all modifications are heavy duty and were done right.

What’s not perfect:
This is a no frills vehicle. No A/C, no cruise control, no air bags. Lap belts only. Paint is good, but not close to perfect. Has a few scratches and touch up areas. A quarter-sized ding in the hood. Driver’s seat has some tears that have been repaired. I always drove with the seat covers on. It has a lever lock, instead of a traditional emergency brake. When I tried using the lights underneath, it makes the headlights blink on and off periodically. I didn’t need those lights, so I never bothered to fix it. It drives like a lifted vehicle. Meaning, you bounce around and it doesn’t corner quickly. It does drive smoothly down the highway – 100% straight, no pulling – only need one hand on the wheel. Geared low for maximum torque, so I very rarely drive over 60-65mph. Tires are fine for the road, but could be replaced if you want max traction off-road. Spare tire is perfect. I have paperwork on all the modifications since 2003, an owner’s manual, and a clean title.I have added a few new pictures of the interior. I haven’t used any black spray paint or done anything else to artificially dress it up. This is a very legit, tough, steel body Jeep with armor that looks awesome and is in amazing condition - not a beauty queen. Paypal for deposit and then the remainder is due in the form of a cashiers check or cash.
