Vehicle Description
The Jeep is about the most American Icon you can get with its
strong heritage of the Willys and Jeep models used throughout the
WWII campaign. Jeep was an off road machine first and then a fun
civilian vehicle. With the addition of the unlimited models a few
years ago, it allowed Jeep to really go after a much larger market
share. Jeep owners are a unique and fun breed, always looking for
some fun trail or road to start another adventure. This could be
the reason that the aftermarket options for a Jeep are endless and
no two are the exact same. The Jeep CJ-7 featured a wheelbase 10
inches longer than that of the CJ-5 and lacked its trademark rear
curve of the door cutouts. 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. It was introduced in for the 1976 model year, with
379,299 were built during 11 years of production.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this 1980 Jeep CJ-7 that is
in great condition. Powering this CJ-7 is a Chevy 350 small block
V8 and 3-speed automatic transmission. There has been a 2.5" lift
added with 33" tires. The body and paint are in great shape, with
no major work needing to be done. The interior is black vinyl with
a newer back seat put in, and as you can see in the pictures with
the Jeep on the lift the frame and under carriage are extremely
clean. Inside, the floor pans are Rhino lined to maintain their
strength and stability. According to the owner a new Edelbrock
carburetor as well as the fuel tank and fuel lines have been
updated recently as well. New double diaphragm power brake booster
and new double Flowmaster exhaust system gives this Jeep a
distinctive rumble! Also just installed is a new Lokar automatic
shifter with indicator lights, neutral safety switch, and a detent
push button to ensure safe shifting. This CJ drives and shifts
strong with the 4WD working as it should. With summer just around
the corner there is truly nothing like cruising around in a Jeep
with the doors off, or getting yourself deep in the mud, but hey
"Its Jeep thing".
