1984 Jeep Cj7 Restored, Original, No Rust, Laredo on 2040-cars
Gig Harbor, Washington, United States
Very original 1984 Night Blue JEEP CJ7 Laredo 104,600 miles Original, VERY SOLID, 4.2 liter/258 c.i. straight 6. Uses no oil between changes, does not smoke or leak. Original Jeep 4-speed transmission. I believe this Jeep is as it came from the factory, except for the 4" lift, larger tires, and minor improvements made during the cosmetic restoration (ss hardware, improved heater blower motor, weber, bumper, lift, etc) All changes can easily be reversed to factory stock condition. -Stripped all paint down to bare steel. I found some bondo on the left front fender from a previous poor repair, also found some rust in the lower corners of the windshield frame. I replaced these two parts with NEW STEEL PARTS, as well as the tailgate that had been dented, which I replaced with a NEW STEEL TAILGATE. -Body was disassembled. All dings and dents were repaired. All parts were epoxy primered and resprayed in the original factory Night Blue color, then reassembled. -Bestop soft top,
full soft doors (zip out windows), half doors, bikini top, all in EXCELLENT
condition. NO HARD TOP or HARD DOORS. -All ORIGINAL factory
Jeep CJ7 full carpeting, plus additional new floormats. -LAREDO edition,
which includes Laredo chrome front grill, ORIGINAL Laredo seats, original
Laredo rear bench, original factory console with cup holders, original factory storage locker (fits behind the rear seat), and all original roll bar covers, all in superb condition. The Jeep DOES NOT have the "LAREDO" decal on the hood. -NO Radio, though wiring is in place. -JEEP rear speakers. Small front dash speakers were removed. -STAINLESS STEEL HARDWARE on the body. -Entire tub is Rhino-lined -NEW GM heater blower
motor, NEW heater core, NEW radiator, NEW water pump, and NEW thermostat. -NEW WEBER 32/36
progressive carbureter -NEW windshield and NEW windshield seal -NEW windshield-to-cowl seal -NEW speedometer RATIO
ADAPTER is installed to correct for the larger tires. Speedo and odometer are
now accurate, verified by GPS. -PRO-COMP front
bumper, and a CUSTOM-MADE REAR RACK, that fits on the custom-made rear tire
carrier. -NEW FUEL SENDING
UNIT and NEW FUEL GAUGE. -NEW BF Goodrich 33x12.50 All Terrain T/A's -4" shackle/suspension lift -Front locking hubs (I believe are original) -Extended links for the front anti-sway bars, making it very solid on the highway at higher speeds. ***In addition, I have the original chrome Laredo front bumper, and the original carb and air cleaner assembly, and all the original smog equipment, though I can't confirm that every piece of smog gear is accounted for. ***NOTE...this IS NOT a SHOW VEHICLE. It is a driver, and hence may have small imperfections. However, it is a rust-free, mostly original 1984 CJ7, completely dependable, and everything on the Jeep works as it should. I restored this JEEP myself, so I can answer most all questions pertaining to the CJ since I have owned it. It was purchased for a vacation home, but the home was sold so now the JEEP needs a new home. It is not driven too much and I need the space. I have more photos or if you would like to see something specific, I can shoot additional photos and send them out. Thanks... |

Jeep will show new Grand Wagoneer to dealers this summer
Mon, Jun 8 2015It's generally accepted that the Jeep Cherokee was the first real midsize sport utility vehicle to make headway into the hearts, minds and driveways of American consumers in 1984. While that SUV was aimed at the mainstream, it could be argued that the vehicle that made the idea of a luxury SUV possible was the seminal Jeep Grand Wagoneer. We've been hearing rumblings of a revived Grand Wagoneer for years, but if a report from Automotive News is accurate (despite the fact that it seemingly contradicts an earlier report from the same outlet), the wait may nearly be over. Jeep plans to show off its new Grand Wagoneer at the upcoming dealer show in Las Vegas in August, and while that doesn't give any real indication of when such a vehicle may make it into the hands of consumers, such news probably at least means the automaker has a finalized design. While we're mostly over retro-inspired cars, we'll happily cast a vote toward a three-row Grand Wagoneer with faux woodie body sides, if anyone cares to tally it...

Jeep gives a trio of customs an encore showing at SEMA
Wed, 05 Nov 2014While Jeep certainly had some new customs on display at this year's SEMA show, it wasn't afraid to recycle a few that people might have missed from earlier this year. The maker of many beloved off-roaders already displayed the Jeep Cherokee Dakar, Maximum Performance Wrangler and Wrangler Mojo at the 2014 Easter Safari, but they all made it to SEMA for an encore.
Based around the Trailhawk, the Cherokee Dakar (pictured above) imagines an even more off-road-capable version of the crossover. The concept wears a mix of Silver Steel Stain paint with Flame Red graphics and rides on 17-inch wheels wrapped in 33-inch BFGoodrich Mud Terrain tires. To back up the rugged look, the Dakar is fitted with rock rails and skid plates protecting the oil pan, front suspension, fuel tank and other underbody parts. It also sports prototype parts from Jeep Performance Parts, including a lift kit and fender flares.
The Wrangler is one of the paragons of off-roading, and as the name suggests, the Maximum Performance Wrangler concept is meant to be the ultimate example of what it can do. The custom features locking Dana 60 axles front and rear, a 4:1 Rock-Trac transfer case, prototype 4-inch lift kit and 37-inch Mud Terrain tires over beadlock wheels. To stay on the trails well into the night, a bar of LEDs is mounted above the windshield. And finally, the Mopar Blue exterior kind of makes the vehicle look like the world's toughest blueberry.
Drive like a prince: Join us for a walk through Monaco's car collection
Fri, Dec 29 2023Small, crowded, and a royal pain in the trunk lid to drive into during rush hour, Monaco sounds like an improbable location for a huge car museum. And yet, this tiny city-state has been closely linked to car culture for over a century. It hosts two major racing events every year, many of its residents would qualify for a frequent shopper card if Rolls-Royce issued one, and Prince Rainier III began assembling a collection of cars in the late 1950s. He opened his collection to the public in 1993 and the museum quickly turned into a popular tourist attraction. The collection continued to grow after his death in April 2005; it moved to a new facility located right on Hercules Port in July 2022. Monaco being Monaco, you'd expect to walk into a room full of the latest, shiniest, and most powerful supercars ever to shred a tire. That's not the case: while there is no shortage of high-horsepower machines, the first cars you see after paying ˆ10 (approximately $11) to get in are pre-war models. In that era, the template for the car as we know it in 2023 hadn't been created, so an eclectic assortment of expensive and dauntingly experimental machines roamed whatever roads were available to them. One is the Leyat Helica, which was built in France in 1921 with a 1.2-liter air-cooled flat-twin sourced from the world of aviation. Fittingly, the two-cylinder spun a massive, plane-like propeller. Government vehicles get a special spot in the museum. They range from a Cadillac Series 6700 with an amusing blend of period-correct French-market yellow headlights and massive fins to a 2011 Lexus LS 600h with a custom-made transparent roof panel that was built by Belgian coachbuilder Carat Duchatelet for Prince Albert II's wedding. Here's where it all gets a little weird: you've got a 1952 Austin FX3, a Ghia-bodied 1959 Fiat 500 Jolly, a 1960 BMW Isetta, and a 1971 Lotus Seven. That has to be someone's idea of a perfect four-car garage. One of the most significant cars in the collection lurks in the far corner of the main hall, which is located a level below the entrance. At first glance, it's a kitted-out Renault 4CV with auxiliary lights, a racing number on the front end, and a period-correct registration number issued in the Bouches-du-Rhone department of France. It doesn't look all that different than the later, unmodified 4CV parked right next to it. Here's what's special about it: this is one of the small handful of Type 1063 models built by Renault for competition.
