Vehicle Description
It's hard not to be impressed with every inch of this 1983 Jeep CJ7
Renegade Restomod. Not only does it have the custom look of a YJ,
but also it's a full custom build with every feature you could
want: from a built-in welder to A/C. And this 4x4 even has
fuel-injected Corvette power under the hood, too!
There's so much going on with this Jeep we need to separate it into
two areas: the beauty and the function. First the beauty. Not only
was the front end added from a later-model YJ Jeep Wrangler, but
also the hood, fenders, and doors to give it a very well-done total
appearance. And because a Jeep is a true patriotic machine, this
one has a special red, white, and blue triple-tone paintjob - we
especially love the blue full soft top as a finishing touch. There
are even nice details, like how the taillights fit flush to the
body. And as much as you'll like the way this looks, you'll really
love all the off-road ready accessories. There's a strong Traveler
winch on the front and two large lights to lead the way. In the
rear is a proper tow hitch. And you have a lifted 4x4 stance aided
by polished 15-inch beadlock wheels. There's even a welder under
the hood in case you need to make real repairs out in the
trail.
Inside, the custom work continues to upgrade both comfort and
function. Two high-back leather bucket seats offer superior
comfort. The custom roll cage is not only painted to match the
exterior tri-tone, but also it has speakers built in for the
AM/FM/cassette stereo. You have a nice cup holder center console
that also provides locking storage. But your favorite comfort
feature will likely be the cold-blowing R134a air conditioning.
After all, no matter where you are, this can keep you cool while
open to the world. The classic Jeep steering wheel is on a tilt
column, and you have confident gear selection with the Winters
Performance shifter. The dash is a custom panel with everything
from a full VDO readout setup to switches for your locking air
differential.
The moment you look under the hood, you know they had plenty left
in the budget to upgrade the engine bay. This now has a
fuel-injected LT1 V8 nicely added. This is great for power for all
occasions, especially with the large aluminum radiator w/electric
fan keeping it running cool. There are more great supporting items
- from the heavy duty fuel tank (a $1,000 investment alone,) to the
4L60E four-speed automatic transmission w/overdrive. The lifted 4x4
suspension with Currie springs, Rancho shocks, and Cooper
Discoverer tires keep this a go-anywhere Jeep. Plus, the power
steering and four-wheel power disc brakes are great for the street
or the trail.
This is a full custom build of a Jeep that will leave you wanting
for nothing. So if you love to do it all, including turn heads on
Main Street, call today!
