Vintage Motorcars in Sun Praire, WI is happy to offer this 1983 Jeep CJ7
The Jeep CJ-7 replaced the low production, long wheelbase Jeep CJ-6 (the civilian version of the M170 ambulance). While more agile on the trail than the CJ-6, the CJ-7 was intended to be a more civilized and luxurious version of the CJ-5. Compared to the CJ-5, it featured a 10-inch longer wheelbase and larger openings for doors that at least could make an effort to seal out the elements and be less awkward for most folks to use and get in and out of the vehicle. The Jeep CJ-7 also had more unified styling than the CJ-5 with the removable hardtop. Part of a drive to be more urban friendly, it was also the first CJ to offer an automatic transmission as an option (the GM Turbo-HydraMatic 400). Also debuting with the TH-400 exclusively was the now famous Quadra-Trac transfer case.
Right out of the gate, it was offered with most of the same options as the CJ-5, which initially were the Renegade and Levi’s packages. Of all the trim packages offered on CJs in subsequent years, only the Super Jeep and the 1979 Silver Anniversary weren’t available in the CJ-7 (logical, as the latter celebrated the 25th anniversary of the CJ-5). A couple of them were exclusive to the Jeep CJ-7, however, including the Limited (1982-83) and the Jamboree (1982). It’s actually quite hard to find a stripped Jeep CJ-7, as most were well equipped.
This 1983 Jeep CJ7 has over $60,000 into its build. The highlihts if the build are:
- Kevlar Body Kit
- Crate 350 Engine with Ram Jet Injection
- Tremec 5-speed Manual Transmission
- Full Custom Roll Cage
This jeep has been driven so there are some minor imerfections in the paint im a couple of areas but overall it has a clean and nice interior and exterior. All of the gauges work great and it drives like you would expect a 1983 Jeep CJ7 to Drive
