1986 Jeep CJ7

Description

The 1986 Jeep CJ7 holds a special place in our vintage 4x4 hearts. After all, it's not only the original capable SUV, but this was also the final year for the CJ line. So when you can find an example that's useful and affordable, you know the total product is irresistible.

This one looks terrific in the full blackout package. It starts with the paint that strikes the right balance where it has a good gloss in the sunshine, but an overall finish that will never make you hesitate to go out on a sunny day adventure. And the best parts of this blackout are the beefy upgrades, like the steel front bumper that's just ready for a winch. Along the sides are the flared fenders, steel steps/rocker guards, and dark wheels with meaty tires. The black rear bumper is both robust and useful with the tow hooks and trailer hitch attached to the steel. In fact, the brightest parts of the exterior are the upgraded Renegade decals and strobe stripe that add a touch of sophistication with the aggression.

This has a bikini top and older soft doors/top set, but of course, a Jeep is best when open to the world. This one is particularly well-equipped to do that with features like updated seating in durable vinyl and an upgraded roll cage that added strength and safety. The high-back bucket seats feel comfy, and there are even proper shoulder belts. In between is an upgraded center console that also houses your AM/FM stereo with Bluetooth. It all makes for the right kind of Jeep attitude where you're ready to take a command position behind the wheel.

Jeep's rugged and reliable 258 cubic inch inline-six is the engine most CJs use and it's a great choice. Torque-filled and willing to just crawl along at little more than idle speed, it was built for situations just like this. It's a strong-runner that has the right features, including a newer aluminum radiator w/electric fan. The four-speed manual transmission feeds a two-speed 4x4 transfer case, and the suspension lift and Toyo Open Country tires make it plenty capable in the rough. Plus, power steering, power brakes, and front discs make for a solid driver experience.

Complete with service manuals, this is a final-year CJ with style and attitude. So hurry up on this all-around attractive Jeep. Call today!!!
