Can't decide between a big-block Chevy and a 4x4 off-road machine? Why not have them both with this very custom 1979 Jeep CJ 7? Yes that's right...a BIG BLOCK in a Jeep! And this one is even a rare Carolina Bigfoot edition!The quality bright red paint job is just what you'd want on your off-roader. When it's this clean it shows off the exceptional condition of the classic Jeep body. When it goes off-road (and you better believe this one will!) the mud, rass, nd other earth elements you pick up will vividly contrast against this red. You might often choose a car with a color because it doesn't show dirt, ut Jeep people use mud and dirt as a badge of honor, nd this one could wear it perfectly. Even without the bold proclamation of "Carolina Bigfoot" on the hood, ou'd know this one was up for any task with the rubber flares over the giant tires, assive black brush guard up front, nd tubular bumper out back. You're even ready to help get friends out of trouble with the Smittybilt XRC8 remote winch.Jeep interiors are all about function, ut this one goes one step further, nd it was done right. During the custom build Rhino lining was added to the floor, hich really reinforces the nice ability to hose out the interior. The same can be said for the new vinyl seats. The front buckets are comfortable on the trail, nd when it's time to go out on the town, hey clean up in a snap. You'll appreciate the functional items like the power steering, ull instruments, nd full custom roll cage setup, ut there are also plenty of comfort options, oo. They include the AM/FM/CD player, eat/defrost, nd full convertible top & doors.As we mentioned, he real treat in this custom Jeep is under the hood. Somehow they were able to shoehorn a freshly rebuilt 454 cubic-inch big-block Chevy V8 in the engine bay. It has even been upgraded with goodies like a Holley Double Pumper 750 CFM carburetor, nd Edelbrock performance intake. We love to see these big motors in muscle cars because of their horsepower figures, ut in a muscle Jeep like this one, t also will dominate with rock-crawling torque. Helping aid this off-road 4x4 dominator is a four-speed Borg-Warner T-18 transmission, nd a two-speed transfer case. This connects to a Dana 30 front end and AMC20 rear axle. The lift kit also gives the suspension plenty travel when it really counts. This is all topped off with General Grabber tires that are engineered to find traction on any surface.This Jeep has such a wicked growl that everyone on the trail will swear you brought along a muscle car. It has the extra power to go anywhere and the cool presence to be a standout everywhere. Finally, uality like this just does not last in our showroom. Call today!!
