This 1980 Jeep CJ-7 is an awesome built, all steel CJ that spent its life in California. There is less than 5,000 miles on it since it was built and that is confirmed on the new gauges and speedo cluster. The last owner owned this Jeep for the last 30 years and upgraded and modified the Jeep from 2016-2018. He tried to do about every upgrade he could to make it off-road capable but also be able to drive nicely on the street. He stated he put over $50,000 into upgrades and we have a lot of the receipts but not everything. The body on this Jeep is clean and straight. It was originally brown but it was repainted awhile ago in a nice shade of red. It has an aftermarket front bumper with a Warn 8,000 pound winch. The rear bumper is also aftermarket with a swing away tire carrier, Jerry Can holder, hi-lift mount, and fold out table. It has custom rock rails on the sides and the rear corners. The Bestop soft top is still in great condition. The underside is very clean and we found no rust issues with this Jeep.
The interior is also really nice. It has aftermarket military style seat covers on the front bucket seat that are waterproof. The rear seat was reupholstered and looks new...it is mounted on a custom bracket system with a drawer underneath. It has a custom stainless dash with all custom gauges and switches that all work. It also has a a Garmin GPS mounted to the dash for if you plan to offroad off the beaten path. It has a custom family style roll cage for safety. The roll cage has a bluetooth stereo and CB mounted to it and they are working. The headlights, taillights, brakelights, and turn signals are all working. The horn and windshield wipers work. It has tilt steering with an aftermarket steering wheel. The heat works and this Jeep has a working Vintage AC system as well.
Mechanically this Jeep is amazing and it runs and drives excellent!! The engine is a 5.3L Vortec V8 that came out of a 2005 Chevy that had 118k on it. This was done correctly using Novak Adapters. It has a new Novak wire harness for the engine, aluminum radiator with electric fan, ceramic coated shorty headers, and custom exhaust. This is a very professionally done LS Swap. It has the NV4500 5 Speed Manual transmission that was rebuilt when installed and it shifts great with a new clutch as well. It is mated to the Dana 300 transfer case with twin-stick shifter. The 4WD works like it should. The rear axle is a Dana 44 with 4.56 gears, ARB Air Locker, and Chrome Moly shafts. The front axle is a Dana 30 that was sleeved and gusseted. It also has 4.56 gears, ARB air locker, chrome moly shafts. The front and rear driveshafts are custom built to match the lift and power of the new drivetrain. The lift is a custom spring over axle with custom springs and it rides great!! It has Heavy Duty Shackles, front shackle reversal, and custom high steer steering. The lift made it possible to mount the 35 Inch Mud Terrain tires on the chrome rims. Other cool items include a custom HD aluminum fuel tank with built in fuel pump, custom onboard air setup with a belt driven compressor (cool setup), hydroboost brakes with corvette master cylinder and all custom lines (Disc brakes on front), and he also has it set up for on board welding and has everything you need to use it. This is a crazy expensive build at a great price!!
