The CJ-7 Jeep was introduced in 1976. It got 25 centimetres longer wheelbase than the predecessor CJ-5 and therefore more room for the passengers and better on road -driving characteristics. The new “civilian jeep” was first time available also with automatic gearbox and the proper doors. On top of the model range was Renegade, that was equipped among other things, with aluminium wheels, wide wheel arches, roll gage, spare wheel mounted on the back, 3-spoke sporty steering wheel and the bench for passengers sitting in the back.
This ‘1976 original Levi Edition 5.0 V8 manual is first registered in 7.10.1976. According to heritage knowledge from the previous owner and documents, the car has been sold as new to Finland and owned by its very first owner until 2010’s. The Jeep might be the very only one sold as new to Finland with similar specifications.
The car has preserved in very good original condition and it has been recently restored with respect to its extraordinary good original condition. Restoration was completed in 2017 and included the repaint of the body with original Firecracker Orange Red colour and finish with original Renegade tapes. Seat covers were renewed with original materials and Levi’s stiching and studs. The original denim effected dashboard and door cards have been preserved. The body and chassis seem to be in original, unwelded and very good condition from any angle, also underneath.
In 2020 all of the ignition parts, engine hoses, fuel hoses, fuel pump, belts, inlet manifold and engine valve cover seals were renewed. The Holley carburettor was adjusted, and the exhaust manifold was removed, refurbished, and reinstalled. Exhaust silencer and brake cylinder was also renewed.
The Jeep will be sold with fresh service made in November of 2024, including the engine oil and filter changed. The tires were also renewed with 31 inch Toyo MT -tires installed for original Slot Mag -styled wheels. Also smaller 235/70/15 -tires available if wanted. The car includes also dark blue soft top, soft doors, and unrestored white hardtop roof.
Everything works simply perfect, engine runs and pulls very healthy and the gearbox works precisely.
The car is a real collector example. It is very perky and pretty fast with 5.0 V8 together with manual gearbox. Also real 4×4 off roader with high and low gearing options and hub locks.
