1980 Jeep Wrangler

1980 Jeep CJ-7 with 258ci inline 6-cylinder, 4-speed manual transmission, and 151,XXX miles.

This CJ-7 has spent its life in California and has provided a lot of fun times both on and off the road around Southern California. It's a great old-school Jeep with plenty of character and lots of potential for its next owner.

The Jeep is in good overall condition for its age, with very little rust for a California CJ-7.

THE BOTTOM LINE

This is a fun, honest California CJ-7 that has been enjoyed rather than sitting around as a garage queen. It has the classic 258 straight-six and 4-speed manual combination, a WARN winch, new Bestop top, and a number of recent maintenance items.

It's not being represented as a fully restored vehicle. It has the typical age-related items and some known mechanical and cosmetic issues, which are outlined above. What it does have is character, California history, and a lot of potential for someone looking for an old-school CJ-7 to enjoy and continue improving.

Just passed SMOG and ready for its next adventure.

Fun Jeep looking for a new home!
