For Sale: 1980 Jeep CJ7 in Lutz, Florida

An awesome color, an upgraded motor, and a robust presentation inside and out come together on this 1980 Jeep CJ7 to deliver a custom 4x4 that is equal parts style and substance.

This may be a classic Jeep, but the Nardo Gray paint was borrowed from a modern Audi palette. This was a $9k investment in 2020 and it makes this ALMOST too nice to enjoy off-road. We say that it's nearly too nice to get muddy, because after all, every Jeep is engrained with a go-anywhere ability. And this one is even upgraded with an HD steel front bumper with a brush guard, tow hooks, and an integrated winch. The sides show off the lifted stance and flared fenders. And there's a tow hitch and full-size spare in the rear. So you're at a crossroads where you can update the trim and details for a very cool urban cruiser, or you can dive into the nature trails. Quite frankly, we bet you're going to do both with this unique CJ.

Because Jeeps are meant to be open to the world, investments are designed to keep this attractive inside as well as functional. The special gray returns on the dash, but now black is the main color. The front buckets are comfortable high-back units finished in durable vinyl. The rear bench has been updated, too. Even the floor is done in a liner paint for extra protection. This also is made for added comfort with an upgraded center console that includes a lockbox and cup holders. Your driving position is a commanding one with a GT Grant steering wheel, a tall shifter with grenade handle, and classic gauges that include the Renegade-style clock and tach for a display.

The 304 cubic-inch V8 was the largest motor they offered for these CJ7s, but this one takes it a step further. It was refreshed in 2011, and today it inhales deeper with a Holley four-barrel carburetor. It exhales with added power and a sweet V8 tune as headers feed the dual exhaust. And while you'll like the power, don't forget to notice the good supporting components, like the HEI distributor and aluminum radiator. The four-speed manual transmission gives you proper control no matter if you're on the street or trail. And when you do take this one off-road, the lifted suspension and two-speed 4x4 transfer case combine to deliver that true Jeep go-anywhere prowess. Power steering, power brakes, and front discs are all there for an easier anytime driving package.

This Jeep is turn-key ready to hit the trails of a night out on the town. It's a lot of fun and distinct for the money. So hurry up before this deal is gone. Call today!!!
