1983 Jeep CJ-7 5-Speed

This red 1983 Jeep CJ-7 was registered in California and Texas before it was acquired by the seller in 2018. It features power steering, Raceline 15″ wheels, 33″ BFG KM2’s, full metal doors, high-back bucket seats, and a retro-look stereo with Bluetooth. Power comes from a 258ci inline-six paired with a five-speed manual transmission. This CJ-7 shows 172k miles, and it is offered with an accident-free Carfax report and an Illinois title in the seller’s name.

The truck was repainted under previous ownership, and its red finish is accented by bright headlight bezels and mirror caps, dark wheel arch extensions and rocker moldings, and chrome bumpers. Flaws around the body are pictured in close-up photos shown in the gallery below.

The majority of the photos in the gallery were taken in March 2026, approximately 77 kilometers ( ~48 miles) ago.

The body is lifted over 33×12.50″ BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM2 tires, which are mounted on 15″ Raceline Rockcrusher alloys. Vacuum-assisted front disc brakes are paired with rear drums for stopping power.

Beneath a bikini-style soft top, the black interior has high-back bucket seats, Alpine speakers, a retro-look stereo with Bluetooth, and a rear bench.

A wood-rimmed steering wheel fronts a tachometer and a quartz clock. The 85-mph speedometer has a six-digit odometer showing 172k miles.

The 258ci inline-six was factory rated at 102 horsepower and 204 lb-ft of torque, which is delivered through a five-speed manual transmission, a Dana 300 transfer case, a Dana 30 front axle with manually locking hubs, and an AMC 20 rear end.

Additional photographs of the underside are shown in the gallery below.

The Carfax report is free of accidents or other reported damage. Entries from 2005 and 2010 state that the truck was designated as a Gross Polluter by the state of California.

The Illinois title lists both the make and the model of the vehicle as “Jeep”.
