Only in a Jeep. That was long the company's advertising tagline. This former southern vehicle is a great, original CJ-7 with its original engine and exterior color. This jeep is a very attractive color combo and came from a loving local owner who had the jeep for the past 10 years.

Made in Toledo, Ohio, this example is dressed in its original color, Montana Blue with black trim. The paint and trim are in overall very good order and the bodywork is straight and solid. The engine bay is very tidy and the battery appears to be in good order. Besides the black factory hardtop, it has a bikini top and half soft doors. In addition, the black, double tubular bumpers, matching rock guards surrounding the taillight, the running bars beneath the doors and its foglights make this Jeep look ready to head off-road.

Rolling on Buckshot light truck tires, size 31x10.50R15 at every corner, each one is mounted to a factory, vented alloy wheel with locking hubs in the front. The wheels are in good, original order while the tires are in very good condition.

Under the hood is AMC's venerable 258 CID straight six-cylinder engine. This engine is original to the vehicle. Backing it is a four-speed manual transmission, a part-time Dana 300 transfer case and a 3.73 rear end. The Jeep has a Dana 30 front narrow track axle and a two-piece AMC 20 narrow track rear axle. Driver convenience features include power steering.

Inside, the black front buckets and small, rear bench seat are all in very good order. The complementing black carpet is in near-excellent order, as is the white headliner of the hardtop. The horn and fuel gauge are inoperable. The three-spoke steering wheel, instrument panel and inner door panels are all in very good order.

The Jeep CJ-7 featured a wheelbase 10 inches longer than that of the CJ-5, with its curved side entry cutouts partially squared up to accommodate hinged doors. 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. For the 1981 model year, Jeep produced 27,767 CJ-7s.

The CJ-7 continues to be used in the sport of mud racing, with either the stock body or a fiberglass replica. CJ-7 has been successfully and widely used as a favorite for rock crawling, through simple and complex modification.

Competition to this Jeep in 1981 included Chevrolet's K5 Blazer, Dodge's Ramcharger, Ford's Bronco, GMC's K5 Jimmy, Plymouth's Trailduster and Toyota's Land Cruiser.
