1985 AMC Jeep CJ7 Laredo 401
Description
This is a 1985 AMC Jeep CJ7 Laredo that has been fully restored using real AMC parts. You will not find a nicer, better equipped Jeep with REAL OEM AMC parts.
The 6-cylinder 258 was removed 2 years ago and in its place we put a real AMC 401 V8. At the same time, the body was completely stripped and repainted in the factory burgundy color. This Jeep has all of itsoriginal floor pans, fenders, etc. with no rust.It also comes with an extra set of half doors with matching paint.
The 401 was fully dismantled all the way to the block andprofessionally rebuilt. The Jeep has a mild cam, Edelbrockintake, Offenhauser valve coversand Hedman headers. The jeep was also converted to a FAST fuel injection system. We wanted to keep the Jeep looking like it just drove off the showroom floor, while enhancing performance and reliability. It has power brakes and power steering using original AMC parts. Tilt steering wheel, which is very rare. Those are real Marchal fog lights, too.
The interior of the Jeep has all original AMC parts, including original Laredo front grill overlay,side mirrors, seats, steering wheel, center console,grab barand door panels. The gauges are all original parts. Original dash pad. The fuel filler overlay is an original part, as are thechrome bumperettes.Original front bumper. Original chrome wagon wheels with original hubs. Original fender flares. Original sparewheel swing arm. The A/C system was rebuilt and works great. Originalcarpetsseatbelts and carpets. Original 4WD lockouts. The Jeep also has been rekeyed with original AMC key blanks that I found a couple years back.
Non-OEM parts that I can think of are the engine components listed above,radio, and BestTop top. There may be other things thatwere notavailable when I restored the Jeep, but the pictures speak for themselves. Please email me if you have any questions.
The mileage shows 99k miles but when I purchased theJeep, it did not have a mileage statement. The 401 has only about 1,000 miles on it. Because of this, the Jeep will be sold as a not original mileage car.
This Jeep is a blast to drive. The transmission shifts with ease. If you are looking for an original CJ7,you will notfind one better than this.
This is a no reserve auction. I'll require a deposit within 24 hours of the end of the auction. Full payment is required before the Jeep can be released. I prefer abank transfer but I will also accept cash or cashier's check. The Jeep is located in Memphis, Tennessee and it is the buyer's responsibility to arrange for shipping - but I can assist in making it available for the transporter. Please email me if you have any questions.
