JEEPS ARE HANDS DOWN ONE OF THE MOST ALTERED, ABUSED, CHANGED AND CUSTOMIZED VEHICLE MADE. THE JEEP HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE TOP PIC FOR OFF ROADERS, EARLY SAND DRAGS, BEACH CRUISERS, TO ENTRY LEVEL TRAIL RIDERS WHO ALOS WANT TO DAILY THEIR TRAIL TRUCK. THE DOWN SIDE IS NOW 30+ YEARS LATER NOT MANY CLEAN & SOLID EXAMPLES ARE LEFT DUE TO THESE REASON ALONG WITH NATURAL CAUSES SUCH AS ACCIDENTS AND WITH ANY OPEN TOP VEHICLE SO MANY RUSTED OUT IF NOT CARED FOR OR PROTECTED. THE UNDERSIDE OF THIS JEEP ALONG WIT, THE BODY MOUNTS, INNER WHEEL WELLS,THE FLOOR BOARDS AND THE INNER FENDERS ARE ALL ORIGINAL AND VERY CLEAN SHOWING THE EASY AND WELL CARED AFTER LIFE THIS JEEP HAS HAD. THERE WAS A FEW HUNDRED THOUSAND CJ7’S MADE IN THEIR 11 YEAR RUN, SO THEY DIDN’T START AS A RARE VEHCILE, BUT ONES IN THIS SOLID, CLEAN AND UNMOLESTED CONDITION ARE HARD TO COME BY. THIS JEEP IS A NORTHWEST TRUCK WHERE LUCKILY, WE HAVE MILD WINTERS OFTEN WITH NO SNOW AND NEVER USE SALT ON WINTER ROADS THAT HELP LEAVE BEAUTIFUL AND SOLID RUST-FREE CLASSICS LIKE THIS ONE. THIS JEEP COMES WITH ITS ORIGINAL BOOKS AND HAS A CLEAN WASHINGTON STATE TITLE AND IS 100% RUST FREE. EVERYTHING ON THIS JEEP WORKS AS IT SHOULD INCLUDING ALL LIGHTS, SWITCHES, GAUGES AND IS A SOUND DEPENDABLE DRIVER.

BODY- THIS 85 CJ7 HAS A VERY CLEAN EYECATCHING PRESENCE AND STANCE. THIS JEEP HAS BEEN TREATED TO A FEW TASTEFUL AND MILD UPGRADES THAT GIVE IT THAT PERFECT LOOK WITH A NICE AGGRESSIVE STANCE WHILE NOT BEING TOO BIG, IMPRACTABLE OR UNENJOYABLE. THIS JEEP HAS HAD A VERY NICE QUALITY FACTORY GRADE REPAINT IN THE ORIGINAL GARNET RED METALLIC COLOR WITH A BASE COAT/CLEAR COAT. ALL THE LIGHTS, TRIM, MIRRORS, WIPERS, TOP, BUMPERS, DOOR HANDLES, MIRRORS, TRIM AND DOOR PARTS WERE REMOVED FOR THE REPAINT. IT WAS A COMPLETE REPAINT ALL THE WAY TO THE INSIDE OF THE DOORS, TAILGATE AND JAMBS. THE PAINT SHOWS VERY WELL WITH A HIGH GLOSS, REFLECTIVE AND EYE CATCHING FINISH THAT GIVES OFF THAT WET LOOK. THE RE-PAINT IS A COUPLE YEARS OLD AND UNTIL 2015 IT WAS STILL IN IT’S ORIGINAL PAINT THAT HAD AGED TO A NEAR BROWN LOOK BY THAT TIME. ONCE THE JEEPS PAINT HAD CURED THE FRESHLY SATIN BLACK ORIGINAL TOP WAS PUT BACK ON, NEW WEATHER STRIPPING, NEW RUBBER DOOR GLASS SWEEPS, PRO-COMP BUMPERS, HOOD LATCHES AND ANCHORS, BODY BUSHINGS, MIRRORS, JEEP DECALS, FENDER FLARES, BLACK MATCHING ANTENNA, MIRRORS AND THE GAS FILLER WAS CLEANED UP AND PUT BACK IN. WHEN THE JEEP WAS FINALLY PUT TOGETHER AFTER PAINT THEY CHOSE TO LEAVE THE REAR TIRE CARRIER OFF BECAUSE OF HOW CLEAN IT LOOKS AND THE HOLES HAD NICE POWDER COATED BUTTON FASTENERS INSTALLED TO MATCH THE TRUCK AND FILL THE HOLES. THE ORIGINAL TIRE CARRIER WAS LEFT AT THE BODY SHOP. LUCKILY EVEN THOUGH IT LOOKS FRESH IT HAS HAD SOME TIME TO MATURE AND NO FLAWS OR ISSUES SUCH AS FISHEYES OR CHEMICAL REACTIONS UNDER THE PAINT HAVE SURFACED. WITH THE AGE OF THE REPAINT, ANY IMPERFECTIONS WOULD HAVE ALREADY WORKED THEIR WAY OUT, SO YOU CAN FEEL CONFIDENT IN THE INTEGRITY AND QUALITY OF THE PAINT. THE TRUCK IS COMPLETELY DRY AND RUST FREE. ALL GLASS IS ORIGINAL AND IN GOOD SHAPE, BUT THERE IS SOME AREAS ON THE SIDE GLASS THAT HAVE FAINT SURFACE SCRATCHES. THECOLORED LIGHTS HAVE NICE COLOR WITH NO CRACKS OR CHIPS, AND THERE IS NO CONDENSATION IN ANY OF THE LIGHTS. THE TOP HAS NOT BEEN OFF SINCE THE PAINT JOB AND THERE IS NOT ONE SPOT OF BODY CANCER BUBBLES ON THIS JEEP, CLEAR COAT ISSUES OR PAINT LIFTING ON THE BODY OF THIS JEEP. SINCE THE PAINT JOB THERE HAS BEEN ALMOST NOT WEAR AS IN CHIPS OR SCRATCHES AND ON THE ENTIRE TRUCK THERE ARE ONLY A COUPLE VERY SMALL AREAS WITH A FEW SMALL HAIRLINE SCRATCHES ON THE LEFT OF THE COWL JUST BELOW THE WINDSHIELD, A SCRATCH ON THE BLACK TOP BETWEEN THE DRIVER DOOR FRAME AND REAR SIDE GLASS, A SMALL TOUCHED UP SPOT ON THE DRIVER FENDER NEAR THE LOWER FENDER HINGE, A SMALL HAIRLINE SCRATCH ON FRONT OF DRIVER FENDER AND A COUPLE SMALL CHIPS ON THE BOTTOM OF THE TAILGATE HINGE. THE PAINT JOB IS A NICE QUALITY JOB THAT LOOKS KILLER, BUT WAS GOING ON A JEEP THAT WAS GOING TO BE DRIVEN AND ENJOYED JUST AS IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN, SO IT WAS NOT A 15K SHOW PAINT JOB, BUT STILL WAS A NICE QUALITY AND COSTLY JOB TO GET DONE. THERE IS SOME AREAS ON THE FRONT OF THE FENDERS, CENTER GRILLE, HOOD HINGE AND WINDSHIELD FRAME HINGE THAT HAD STONE CHIPS IN THE ORIIGNAL PAINT OVER LOOKS AND PAINTED OVER. THEY ARE VERY HARD TO SEE, BUT IT YOU GET PICKY YOU WILL FIND THEM. ALL CHIPS ARE POINTED OUT IN THE WALK AROUND VIDEO. THIS TRULY IS JUST A GORGEOUS AND FUN TRUCK THAT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND A 32 YEAR OLD JEEP CLEANER THEN THIS THAT HASN’T BEEN FULLY RESTORED!

INTERIOR- INSIDE THIS CJ7 MATCHES THE EXTERIOR IN ITS BEAUTIFUL AND CLEAN CONDITION AND IS BONE STOCK ASIDE FROM THE ADDITION OF CD PLAYER. THIS JEEP IS ODOR FREE WITH NO SIGNS OF PET PASSENGERS, AND HAS NEVER BEEN SMOKED IN. IT IS IN AMAZING ORIGINAL CONDITION THAT SHOWS BY THE ORIGINALITY AND HOW NICE THE SEATS AND DOOR PANELS ARE WHAT A CLEAN JEEP THIS HAS ALWAYS BEEN AND THE LEVEL OF CARE THE OWNERS HAVE GIVEN IT. WHEN THE JEEP GOT DONE AT THE BODY SHOP A NEW CUSTOM CARPET KIT MADE FOR THE CJ7 WAS INSTALLED AND WE WERE LUCKY ENOUGH TO GET PICS THEY HAD OF THE FLOORS BEFORE CARPET WAS PUT DOWN. THE REAR SIDE CARPET THAT GOES OVER THE SIDE WHEEL WELL HUMPS IS THE ORIGINAL CARPET AND SINCE IT WAS IN SUCH NICE SHAPE THEY WERE LEFT IN, BU TNEW PIECES COME WITH. BOTH WINDOWS ROLL UP AND DOWN SMOOTHLY, AND THE FLY WINDOWS ARE TIGHT, OPEN AND CLOSE WELL, AND LOCK SECURLY. BOTH DOOR PANELS ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH JUST A LITTLE SCUFFING IN THE FRONT BOTTOM FROM LEGS RESTING AGAINST IT. THIS JEEP STILL HAS IT’S FACTORY SMALL SPORT STEERING WHEEL THAT IS USUALLY LONG GONE. THE TILT STEERING COLUMN MOVES SMOOTH AND TIGHTALL INTERIOR FUNCTIONS WORK CORRECTLY AND SHOW WELL FROM ALL THE SWITCHES TO CLEAR GAUGES. THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WORK PERFECTLY AT ALL SPEEDS. THE TRUCK LOCKS AND UNLOCKS PROPERLY, AND BOTH DOORS OPEN AND SHUT PERFECTLY WITH NO HINGE ISSUES, SAG OR MISALIGNMENT. THE DASH HAS A COUPLE SMALL CRACKS ON THE TOP OF THE VINYL. THE SEATS ARE IN NEAR PERFECT SHAPE THAT STILL HAVE THE LITTLE CJ LOGO AT THE CORNER OVERAL AND HAVE JUST ONE CRACK IN THE CENTER OF THE DRIVER BOTTOM SITTING AREA. THIS CJ’S INTERIOR IS VERY COMFORTABLE, CLEAN, AND FOR BEING MOSTLY ORIGINAL I DON’T THINK YOU COULD FIND A NICER AND CLEANER EXAMPLE.

MECHANICAL- THIS CJ7 IS VERY CLEAN, TIGHTY AND ORIGINAL ALONG THE ENGINE BAY, INNER FENDERS, BODY MOUNTS, WHEEL WELLS, UNDER THE HOOD AND ALONG THE ENTIRE UNDERSIDE. THEY ARE IN THEIR CLEA, NATURAL AND HONEST CONDITION. THEY HAVE NOT BEEN STEAM CLEANED, PRESSURE WASHED, SPRAYED WITH CHEAP UNDERCOAT TO HIDE ISSUES OR ARMORALLED UP. ALL THE ORIGINAL BOLTS SHOW NO PRIOR COLLISION DAMAGE OR DISMANTALING AND JUST HOW UNTOUCHED AND CLEAN THE UNDERSIDE OF THE FRONT AND REAR WHEEL WELLS WAS WHAT AMAZING TO ME. ALL THE FACTORY SEAM SEALER AND ASSEMBY OVERSPRAY IS STILL IN PLACE AND MADE IT OVER THREEE DECADES WITH NO ON HITTING IT WITH SPRAY PAINT, UNDER COATING OR THEY HAVENT BEEN CAKED WITH DIRT OR ROAD GRIME. AS YOU LOOK UNDER THE HOOD AND ALONG THE CHASSIS YOU CAN’T TELL IT HAS HAD GOOD REGUALR MAINTENANCE AND GREAT CARE WITH HOSES, BELTS, STARTER, ALTERNATOR AND CARB THAT LOOK NOT VERY OLD. JUST BEFORE PAINT THE CJ RECEIVED NEW BRAKES, A NICE MILD SUSPENSION LIFT WITH NEW SPRINGS, U BOLTS, SHACKLES, U-BOLT PLATES AND SHOCKS AT ALL FOUR CORNERS TO CLEAR THE 33 GOODYEARS EASILY. THE MOTOR IS VERY CLEAN WITH A NICE LOOKING AFTERMARKET VALVE COVER THAT ALSO LOOKS AND RUNS LIKE IT DOESN’T HAVE MANY MILES ON IT. IT DOESN’T FEEL HEAVY, SLOPPY OR HARD TO STEER AND DELIVERS A SOLID AND SMOOTHDRIVE EVERY TIME. IT PULLS NICE, IDLES SMOOTH, AND RUNS CLEAN. THE TRANS HAS A TIGHT SHIFT PATTERN, THE CLUTCH IS SMOOTH AND FIRM THAT GRABS RIGHT WHERE IT SHOULD, IT SHIFTS IN AND OUT OF ALL GEARS EASILY WITH NO GRINDING OR WORN OUT SYNCHROS. IT HAS MANUAL SHIFT 4X4 TRANSFER CASE AND MANUAL HUBS THAT WORK PERFECTLY AND OF COURSE IT HAS DISC BRAKES UP FRONT AND POWER STEERING. THIS JEEP HAS 33X12.5X15 GOODYEARS WITH LOTS OF TREAD MOUNTED ON 15X10 POLISHED ULTRA WHEELS. AS EXCPECTED THIS JEEP GIVES A LITTLE BIT OF A BOUNCEY RIDE AS ANY LEAF SPRUNG SHORT WHEEL BASE CLASSIC WILL, BUT THAT IS THE JEEP, SCOUT, SUZUKI AND BRONCO EXPERIENCE WE ALL LOVE. THIS JEEP DRIVES AND RIDES EXACTLY LIKE IT SHOULD AND DID FROM THE FACTORY. IT ALWAYS TRACKS, DRIVES AND STOPS STRAIGHT, SMOOTH AND QUIET. THIS RED BEAUTY IS A DEPENDABLE TRUCK, NEEDS NOTHING, DRIVER WORTHY AND IS READY TO HAVE THE TOP TAKEN OFF FOR SOME SUMMER FUN AND FOR ITS NEW HOME!!

WE SCOUR THE NW OREGON AND WA AREA FOR CLEAN, LOW MILE CLASSIC TRUCKS LIKE THIS ONE! PLEASE GIVE THIS A TRUCK A GOOD, THOROUGH LOOK AND BID ON ITS BEAUTIFUL CONDITION WITH ITS KILLER STANCE AND CRISP LOOK. TAKE A MOMENT TO THINK OF WHERE AND WHAT YOU WERE DOING IN YOUR LIFE IN 1985 AND NOT ONLY THE CHANGESYOU HAVE ENDURED, BUT ALSO WHERE THE WORLD AND TECHNOLOGY WAS THEN TO TRULY RESPECT AND UNDERSTAND WHY THIS TRUCKS CONDITION IS SO IMPRESSIVE AND HARD TO FIND TODAY. GOOD LUCK! HIGH BID WINS!! The older the car, the harder it is to define the condition of thevehicle. Most of our vehicles are specialty vehicles or are 15+ yearsold, and usually trucks.

I postthese auctions based on how I want to see auctions when I’m buying, keeping in mind what I look for, and I try to put your eye's to what Ican see and touch. Please help me by asking all questions and letting me know if other pictures are wanted. If you do not see a pic or description of an item or an area on the truck,please do not assume anything and ask me about the specifics you’re aneeding or for more pics and i will post every question asked by membersso all potential bidders can see. Every car is available for inspectionand I personally drive each vehicle before listing it and If anything does not work properly I will let you know. Of course, I amonly human, and these are mechanical creatures and these are usedvehicles, so please keep this in mind when bidding.
