In a landscape teeming with modern off-roaders, each more costly than the last, what they invariably lack, unlike a vintage Jeep, is character. This 1979 Jeep CJ7 restoration embodies that very essence. Evolving from the Willys Jeep's military roots, the CJ7 introduced enhanced power, comfort, and utility, wrapped in the iconic Jeep silhouette. This meticulously restored CJ7 showcases a rebuilt drivetrain, superior component upgrades, and custom enhancements, clocking less than 7,000 miles since its rebuild.
Adorned in an off-white hue, this 1979 Jeep CJ7 restoration exudes a timeless appeal, perfectly complementing its contemporary modifications. Stripping down to its essence by removing the Supertop and soft full doors invites an immersive outdoor experience, further accentuated by a custom-built, frame-mounted six-point roll cage. The front boasts a custom bumper equipped with a 10,000 lb Smittybilt X20 winch and tow shackles, alongside protective differential rock guards, side rail rock plates, and nerf running board side steps. A new fiberglass body tub, metal front fenders, and grille update its aesthetics and durability. The rear setup includes a custom bumper with a tow hitch and trailer wiring, complemented by a swing-out tire rack, luggage rack, and dual jerry can racks with tie-downs. This CJ7 rides on 15-inch wheels shod in 33-inch BFGoodrich Mud Terrain T/A KM2 tires, elevated by a Rubicon Express four-inch leaf spring lift. The undercarriage, including fender wells and engine bay, has been meticulously treated with a primer, rubberized undercoating, and paint for enhanced protection. The interior is refreshed with new neoprene seat covers and quick-release seatbelts for added safety. Designed for easy maintenance, the cabin includes four floor drain plugs, exterior waterproof speakers, and a new dashboard outfitted with updated gauges.
Powering this CJ7 is a meticulously rebuilt 4.2-liter inline-six engine, overhauled by S&J Engines in Washington. The engine benefits from machined headwork, over-bored aluminum sleeves, a new DUI distributor, and a California-compliant Howell throttle body injection kit. A triple-core aluminum radiator ensures optimal cooling, while a new dump exhaust system efficiently expels gases. Transmission duties are handled by a rebuilt T-18 four-speed, delivering power to a Detroit locker differential with flanged axles and a reinforced axle housing. Front end enhancements include new Warn locking hubs and axles fine-tuned by WFO Concepts, who also supplied custom driveline components, pitman arms, and chassis reinforcements, bolstering its off-road capability and handling.
The Jeep CJ series can trace its roots back to the original Willy’s Jeep, the car that mobilized the American forces during the Second World War. Since then, the Jeep CJ has found its way into the hearts of many around the world, who appreciate this quintessential offroader for its rugged abilities and backyard mechanic simplicity. The CJ-7 was introduced in 1976 and would be the last “CJ” Jeep before the introduction of the Wrangler that we know today. Our featured 1978 Jeep CJ-7 is described as a restomod, with a 304ci V8 engine, and a whole host of improvements to be found under the metal — that’s in no small part thanks to the owner reportedly spending over $13,000 in aftermarket work alone!
Venturing off the beaten path and being where no one has been is an experience that cannot be replicated. Getting you to picturesque views requires a purpose-built motor, but what if you wanted a capable off-roader that is user-friendly for daily travel as well? Look no further—this 1983 Jeep CJ-7 is the one for you. With a reported 107,000 miles on the clock, this '80s icon features custom styling to make it stand out and performance to match its upgraded styling as well.
Despite being initially conceived for military use, the original Willys Jeep was clearly destined for a much larger audience. It wasn’t long until a Civilian Jeep (CJ) model was launched, with concepts drawn up even before World War 2 ended. The seventh generation of Jeep, aka the CJ7, is a natural evolution of the original. It retains the battle-proven abilities of its military ancestor but offers a driving experience more suited for the general public. The Laredo trim took that a step higher with more amenities, including improved seats, a tachometer, chrome trim, and special graphics. Our featured car is a Jeep CJ7 Laredo, which has a host of new parts, including a recently rebuilt engine.
The Jeep Cherokee was Jeep’s bread-and-butter SUV for decades, running between 1974 and 2023. The vehicle started off as a body-on-frame design, and transitioned into a unibody type with the introduction of the second generation in 1984. This particular 1999 Jeep Cherokee is a fine second-generation variant that’s undergone an extensive built to turn it into what you see here. As if a standard Cherokee wasn’t potent enough, this one’s got everything turned up to eleven. It comes with just 500 miles since the build and the owner reportedly has receipts too.
Jeep is well-known for making capable off-roaders, but did you know that they also make pickup trucks? The Gladiator is their current contender in the segment, but between 1986 and 1992, the Comanche held the torch. Based on the Cherokee of the time, the Comanche competed in the compact pickup truck segment. Naturally, it packed the same off-road abilities. So if you’re interested in picking up a relatively modern classic pickup truck with a difference, check out this 20,077-mile 1986 Jeep Comanche that we’re offering for sale. The truck comes with all maintenance up to date, for added peace of mind.
The iconic Jeep Wrangler is the ultimate modern rendition of the classic ‘Jeep’ formula. Upholding the brand’s reputation of rugged versatility, this 2019 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport S is the epitome of off-road capability. Enhanced with top-of-the-line aftermarket upgrades, and displaying just 49,578 miles on the dash, this Jeep is ready to tackle even the toughest environments.

Chevrolet pickup trucks are some of the most sought-after classic trucks on the market, with their designs being wistful memories of a bygone era. Our featured 1955 Chevrolet 3100 is exactly that: an honest American workhorse hero that has received some extra love and attention after years of work. Having undergone a full restoration, which includes a rebuilt engine and an all-new rear end, this classic Chevy is available for sale in New Iberia, Louisiana. With a 235ci Straight 6 engine under the hood and a host of newly replaced parts, this truck could be the perfect addition to a collection, or the ideal starter classic for anyone interested in characterful pickups.
Ford’s epic sport utility vehicle, the Bronco is one of the Blue Oval’s most desirable vehicles in North America. When it debuted in 1965, Ford had a hard time keeping up with demand. Then, when they discontinued it in 1996, they were lucky that there weren’t crowds with pitchforks gathered outside their headquarters. Thankfully, the Bronco is back, and selling once again like hot cakes. However, if you want a classic Bronco, there are five fantastic generations to pick from. This 1972 Ford Bronco comes from the very first generation, and is an excellent example of what made the Bronco so sought after. Having undergone a frame-off build by Gateway Bronco in Hamel, Illinois, this vehicle is up for sale.
