This 1982 Jeep CJ7 Laredo is an all steel, very clean CJ that spent
its life in Arizona. We believe this Jeep was a Laredo from the
factory as it still has the chrome grille, aluminum rocker
moldings, leather wrapped steering wheel and grab handle, and
factory center console.The last owner did quite a few cool upgrades
and we have $8,000 of receipts for work done over the last few
years. The body is clean and straight on this CJ. The Jeep was
originally Copper Brown, but is was stripped down to bare metal and
repainted in the color of Midnight Blue around 5 years ago. The
paint looks great and it still has the factory hard top and doors
that are also in excellent condition. There are aftermarket bumpers
on the front and rear. The rear bumper has a built in swing-away
rear tire carrier. The front bumper has an old school Warn 8274
8,000 pound winch. The winch clicks when powered up but currently
does not operate. The underside is very clean as you would expect
from an Arizona Jeep and we found no rust issues with this
vehicle.
The interior is also really nice. The entire tup was Rhino-Lined
when the outside was painted. It has aftermarket Corbeau front
bucket seats with a matching rear seat. It has the factory Roll
Bar. The headlights, taillights, brakelights, and turn signals are
all working. The gauges all work. The windshield wipers, heat, and
horn are also working.
Mechanically this Jeep is excellent and it runs and drives great!!
The engine is the 4.2L 258 Inline 6 that runs great with no issues
or red flags that we found. The previous owner said the engine was
rebuilt right before he bought the Jeep, but we did not get
receipts. They added an aluminum valve cover when it was rebuilt.
These engine are known for their longevity and reliability. It has
Holley Sniper fuel injection added to it which is always a nice
addition on these CJ7's. The transmission is the Chrysler 727
Automatic that shifts great. It is mated to the Dana 20 transfer
case and the 4WD works like it should. The rear axle is upgraded to
a Dana 44 and it has 3.73 gears. The front axle is also an upgraded
Dana 44 with 3.73 gears. These axles came out of an International
Scout and are stronger and more robust than Jeep axles from that
era. It has newer stainless steel brake lines with power front disc
brakes and updated master cylinder and brake booster. It has a 4
Inch all spring lift installed to fit the 33 Inch all terrain tires
on nice aftermarket aluminum wheels.
We drive what we sell so that we can give you a first hand and
accurate report on how the vehicle runs and drives. Our pictures
are never touched up or photoshopped. What you see is an accurate
representation of the vehicle. We take consistent pictures and show
you everything so you can get a true representation of the
vehicle.
