1979 Jeep CJ7 Renegade

Description

Flash and substance – that seems to be the theme of this 1979 Jeep CJ7 Renegade. With a bright appearance, V8 power, and plenty of upgrades, you have one turn-key 4x4 that's ready for the streets or trail.

The hood announces the Renegade model, but this is more than just a trim level...It's an attitude. Trail-ready lifted suspension, tubular step bars, bikini top, half doors, a powerful winch, and chunky truck tires make this instantly recognizable as an off-road rebel. Even with all this shining silver paint, there's still plenty of room for attractive chrome on the bumpers, side mirrors, and iconic seven-slot grille. Plus, we know you love the look of the upgraded 15-inch Pacer wheels. Possibly the best piece of bright work is the full-size spare mounted on the swing away rear hinge. It's essential for the times when you're miles from civilization. But in the city, this is great rear end jewelry, too.

Inside, you get the appeal of a setup that's virtually indestructible and designed to be cleaned up with a garden hose. In fact, this one has been upgraded with a spray-on bed liner for even more robustness. The AM/FM/CD stereo even has marine-grade speakers for great all-weather ability! While the bucket seats are covered in a nearly bulletproof vinyl, they are newer to make the trail an easy ride. For those times you're in the city, the upgraded center console with lockable compartment gives you added security. The controls are laid out in typical Jeep fashion, with a grippy three-spoke steering wheel, long-throw shifter for the three-speed manual, and heater controls and gauges clustered in the center of the dash. So you get the full classic Jeep experience with all the right amenities added.

In a no-nonsense Jeep like this one, the engine bay has a nice original feel. Power comes from a 304 cubic-inch V8 topped with a two-barrel carburetor. This is the correct displacement for the vehicle, and it was the top engine option from the factory. And with the addition of headers and side exhaust, it has a terrific sound. But more than just its rumble, there has been plenty of recent work to the motor and suspension, so call us for all of the valuable details. But for now, just know that it fires up nicely delivers all the right torque. What will really make you want this Jeep is its trusty four-wheel drive system with two-speed transfer case. This sturdy setup is the backbone of Jeep's reputation for providing the military and civilians with 4x4 vehicles for 75 years. Power steering and power brakes with discs up front help maintain control for those wicked trails. Plus, the large Kenda Klever M/T tires are the kind of upgrade you'd do before blazing your own path, but now you don't have to lay out that expense.

The sale comes complete with build receipts, maintenance records, and title documentation. Here's a true Renegade that lives up to its name by being able to blaze its own trail. So no matter if you're a city slicker or a country climber, this one is out to impress. Call now!
