77 CJ 7 Jeep Custom Project

Jeep CJ 1977 Description

1977 CJ 7 Jeep This is a 1977 CJ-7 Jeep. I have a clean title and am the sole owner of this Georgia / Virginia vehicle. that is now in California. Started a ground up restoration 15-years ago. However. my priorities have changed since then (wife. house. three kids). thus its time to let her go (the Jeep). The vehicle has never sat outside - 100% garaged since start of restoration. I have personally sandblasted and worked on every inch of this vehicle. replaced the minimal rust spots. smoothed primed and painted the frame with high-gloss black Imron paint. It shines! All the frame seams have been smoothed with seam sealer – this part is show ready! The body is solid. no rust. Undercoated and various panels replaced. There is some filler on the cowl and engine bay that should be replaced (not my best work here). Also. it appears that some rust has bled through the seams on the front passenger side of body (ugh. see photos). I would rework these areas. otherwise. very smooth. The defroster. heater. top holes. door holes have all been filled for a smoother look. Dana 20 rear with 3. 54 gears. Completely rebuilt and has axle truss. New one piece rear axles with four wheel disc brake conversion kit from SSBC. Stainless steel brake lines. Rancho 9000 shocks. Looks brand new! It has a Sky Jacker 4” lift kit with new poly body mounts. Heavy duty shackles. All rubber components replaced with red poly. Warn front and rear bumpers. with one Mickey Thompson Baja II wheel with a BFG A/T 33 x 12. 50 spare on Warn oversized tire carrier. Currently sits on old restoration tires. Custom diamond plate dash with battery cut off switch (no key ignition). all Auto Meter electronic gauges. new speedo. It has a Flaming River tilt wheel column. new steering shaft and Grant Steering wheel. Heavy Duty AGR steering box and bracing. New steering linkage. steering stabalizer. etc. Iron Horse high back bucket seats with racing harnesses. new bikini top. carpet. and role bar padding. center console. Most every bolt on the vehicle is stainless steel. Diamond plate gas and brake pedals. as well as trans tunnel cover. KC Lights. and new stainless side view mirrors. and backup lights. Fiberglass one piece front end that tilts forward – this is an amazing feature. Custom diamond plate trim pieces. fiberglass windshield frame and new windshield (not installed). All new exterior trim / lights. etc. Front is a fully rebuilt Dana 30 with all new front disc brakes. stainless steel brake line extensions and new warn hubs. Drop pitman arm. Again. every piece of metal has been replaced or sandblasted. primed and painted with the same high-gloss black Imron paint. Also has matching front axle truss. Set up for Ford 302 motor with custom radiator bracing with high-flow aluminum Quick Flow radiator. Hella horns. electric dual fans. Has high flow fuel pump. new gas lines. etc. This vehicle. while far along still has a ways to go. It needs an Engine. Transmission. transfer case. wiring harness and four wheels and tires and minor body work and paint to make it a real head turner. I will entertain serious offers only. You will need to arrange transport from my home. The vehicle obviously does not run and therefore will cost more when transporting by professional hauler. I have hundreds of hours of labor and well over $20K into this vehicle. Its time someone finishes the job. Please call me or email me with any questions.
