1984 CJ7. My daily driver. Runs amazing and is complete. The individual responsible for the rebuild, built it for his oldest DAUGHTER. Just image the time, precision, precautions, and structural integrity that went into this thing. It drives and feels like a tank.

All original parts.
-- 258 ci. 4.2L inline 6 : Engine rebuilt (2011) w/ less than 1k miles
-- Double barrel carb
-- T-5 transmission
-- AMC 20 rear differential
-- Dana 30 front differential
-- Dana 300 transfer case
-- Hard top

Engine was rebuilt due to a ticking from the lifters. I hated that ticking, therefore while the top end was being rebuilt I had them replace most of the bottom end. The original parts would have ran well in excess of 50k more miles. This was not a rebuild due to thrown rod, cracked head, etc... This Jeep runs amazing and starts whether it's cold, hot, wet, whatever.

Spring over lift w/ original springs

Front Smittybilt bumper

BFG 35x12.50x15 mud terrains

Full 6 point roll cage

2 PIAA 55w fog lights

2 window mounted spot lights

Original side steps

Many extra parts go with the Jeep: wiring harnesses, original rear swing out tire carrier, sway bars, among other miscellaneous pieces

Good paint

Also available is an unistalled custom made rear swing out tire carrier / bumper. Additional $500 - Cost $900
-- Solid steel, custom welding, plasma drilled holes
-- Black powder coat
-- 2 Jerry can rigs
-- Hi-lift jack carrier
-- Frame tie-in kit
-- CB mount
-- Brand new, still has foam wrap

I have the original swing out tire carrier, but took it off in order to put the custom tire carrier+bumper. I also have the rear seat, but it's currently taken out. The spots under the Jeep are water from the car wash.

Issues:
-- small leak from rear main seal (faulty seal that isn't set right)
-- Steering gear leak
-- Driver needs new seat belt
-- RPM gauge isn't working

I temp removed the link since the bidding closed.

Is this your Jeep?

PorscheEMB · 01-31-2012, 05:37 PM

No, I am just wondering an Idea of what someone would pay for it. I am looking to buy it but have no idea what it is worth. I only put the link on so people can see pictures of it.

CJ · 01-31-2012, 05:39 PM

OK, but the bidding has been closed. Is it sold?

PorscheEMB · 01-31-2012, 05:42 PM

No reserve was not met, and he is local. Still looking for opinions on its value from people on the thread! Might buy it tomorrow, if it is the right price. Can you please put link up so members can see the pictures? I do not think there is a way to copy the pictures from eBay.

Here you go

PorscheEMB · 01-31-2012, 08:38 PM

Thanks coldair . What do you think its value is?

Old Dog · 01-31-2012, 09:44 PM

well from what I can see the soa still has the stock steering geometry which is going to cause some bad bump steer. This makes me wonder about the other work the PO did.
