1986 Jeep CJ
History
The Jeep CJ models are both a series and a range of small,
open-bodied off-road vehicles and compact pickup trucks, built and
sold by several successive incarnations of the Jeep automobile
marque from 1945 to 1986.
In 1944, Willys-Overland, one of the two main manufacturers of the
World War II military Jeep, built the first prototypes for a
commercial version, the CJ, short for "civilian Jeep".
Why This Jeep Is So Special
The stock Jeeps are great, but what sets the 1986 Jeep CJ we have
at Skyway Classics apart from all the stock CJs on the market is,
ours has a 350 Chevrolet small block V8 sitting in the engine
bay!
Mechanical
The small block Chevy engine has a lot more power than the stock
factory one that came in the Jeep. And the mods do not stop there.
It has an aluminum intake, high performance carb, chrome open air
cleaner, ram type exhaust headers, air conditioning, power
steering, power brakes, modified electronics and distributor, H.P.
Spark plug wires, 4-speed automatic transmission and dual exhaust
poking out the rear.
The chassis has undergone a lot too with a lift kit, performance
suspension parts, shocks, leaf springs, bumpers, and tow bar. Our
CJ rides on chrome mag wheels and great off road B.F. Goodrich All
Terrain T/A tires.
Interior
The great Tan high back Bucket Seat interior has a custom made
performance aluminum dash with switches, gauges, custom grab
handle, plush steering wheel, performance shifter in a con sole,
floor mats, and matching rear seat, all protected by a roll bar and
convertible half top.
Exterior
All CJ Jeeps consistently had a separate body and frame, rigid live
axles with leaf springs both front and rear, a tapering nose design
with flared fenders, and a fold-flat windshield, and could be
driven without doors, as ours has separate cloth doors.
The body is painted in a gloss black with small width fender
flairs, hood hold-downs, and all the factory trim, emblems, lights,
mirrors, side steps, etc.
Conclusion
The 1986 Jeep CJ we have at Skyway Classics is a well thought out
and executed conversion with it's small block Chevy engine and
automatic transmission. It will give you many hours of open air
enjoyment, either on the road or off. After all, that's what Jeeps
are made for.
