That was long the company?s advertising tagline. This former
southern vehicle is a great, original CJ-7 with its original engine
and exterior color. This jeep is a very attractive color combo and
came from a loving local owner who had the jeep for the past 10
years.Made in Toledo, Ohio, this example is dressed in its original
color, Montana Blue with black trim. The paint and trim are in
overall very good order and the bodywork is straight and solid. The
engine bay is very tidy and the battery appears to be in good
order. Besides the black factory hardtop, it has a bikini top and
half soft doors. In addition, the black, double tubular bumpers,
matching rock guards surrounding the taillight, the running bars
beneath the doors and its foglights make this Jeep look ready to
head off-road.Rolling on Buckshot light truck tires, size
31x10.50R15 at every corner, each one is mounted to a factory,
vented alloy wheel with locking hubs in the front. The wheels are
in good, original order while the tires are in very good
condition.Under the hood is AMC?s venerable 258 CID straight
six-cylinder engine. This engine is original to the vehicle.
Backing it is a four-speed manual transmission, a part-time Dana
300 transfer case and a 3.73 rear end. The Jeep has a Dana 30 front
narrow track axle and a two-piece AMC 20 narrow track rear axle.
Driver convenience features include power steering.Inside, the
black front buckets and small, rear bench seat are all in very good
order. The complementing black carpet is in near-excellent order,
as is the white headliner of the hardtop. The horn and fuel gauge
are inoperable. The three-spoke steering wheel, instrument panel
and inner door panels are all in very good order.The Jeep CJ-7
featured a wheelbase 10 inches longer than that of the CJ-5, with
its curved side entry cutouts partially squared up to accommodate
hinged doors. The other main difference between CJ-5 and CJ-7 was
to the chassis, which consisted of two parallel longitudinal main
C-section rails. To help improve vehicle handling and stability,
the rear section of the chassis stepped out to allow the springs
and shock absorbers to be mounted closer to the outside of the
body. For the 1981 model year, Jeep produced 27,767 CJ-7s.The CJ-7
continues to be used in the sport of mud racing, with either the
stock body or a fiberglass replica. CJ-7 has been successfully and
widely used as a favorite for rock crawling, through simple and
complex modification.Competition to this Jeep in 1981 included
Chevrolet?s K5 Blazer, Dodge?s Ramcharger, Ford?s Bronco, GMC?s K5
Jimmy, Plymouth?s Trailduster and Toyota?s Land Cruiser.VIN:
