1979 Jeep Cj7 304 V8 Mint Condition on 2040-cars
Three Lakes, Wisconsin, United States
|
I am offering for sale my 40,000 mile, pristine condition Jeep CJ-7. It has a documented history since new that includes no damage, no rust, no excuses! Its early life consisted of summertime fishing and camping trips, with a canoe on top, some tent gear and fishing poles in the back. I don’t believe it has ever seen bad weather.. one look at the frame, and you will agree. The all-original body is in flawless condition. The drive-train consists of the tried-and-true 304 V-8 coupled with a 3-speed manual transmission and floor shifter. It also has the rare power steering and power brake options. It starts, drives, and responds like it did when brand new. The steering is tight and straight, drive line is quiet, ride is solid, and it brakes straight and strong. The dual exhaust has a subdued but authoritative note to it.. not loud and overbearing, but just a hint of the powerful V-8 that sits behind it!
A frame-up restoration was done on a rust- and damage-free body. A gorgeous, show-quality three-stage candy apple red paint finish that is worth over $10,000 was applied. The paint (material alone) is over $1,500, and there are tireless hours of preparation and finishing work invested that demonstrate the labor of love with which this CJ was restored. Condition of the body is documented with photo albums of pictures showing what it looked like going into the restoration, during, and after.
It has new Dick Cepak all-terrain tires on Mickey Thompson CJ wheels that are made specifically for this Jeep. They are the proper size and offset for the correct height and stance. It has a brand new vintage sound system that looks like factory AM radio, and even has the Jeep name badge, but has 250 watts of outstanding sound and is coupled with an MP3 port that is hidden. Absolutely no dash modifications were done to accommodate the stereo.
It has tasteful additions of stainless steel accents- namely the grill, rockers, mirrors, and instrument cluster surround. The body, drive-train and suspension are all as-original and correct- the only modifications are headers & dual exhaust system and an Optima battery.
Included are the soft top, side curtains, and doors, which are all off and stored in nice 8/10 condition.
After a thorough critique of the vehicle’s condition, and a review of it’s documented history, you will agree that this is without a doubt one of the finest examples of a vintage CJ-7 still in existence. It is refined with the show quality paint work, but still rugged and correct. The finish quality draws attention everywhere this beauty is taken. It has recently undergone a thorough appraisal for insurance purposes that declare it show quality throughout and noted absolutely no defects or short-comings in its value. Coupled with that, it has all the right equipment and options, most notably the 304 V-8, power steering and power brakes.
Bid with confidence on this legendary CJ that will undoubtedly only continue to rise in value as time passes. |

Which electric cars can charge at a Tesla Supercharger?
Sun, Jul 9 2023The difference between Tesla charging and non-Tesla charging. Electrify America; Tesla Tesla's advantage has long been its charging technology and Supercharger network. Now, more and more automakers are switching to Tesla's charging tech. But there are a few things non-Tesla drivers need to know about charging at a Tesla station. A lot has hit the news cycle in recent months with regard to electric car drivers and where they can and can't plug in. The key factor in all of that? Whether automakers switched to Tesla's charging standard. More car companies are shifting to Tesla's charging tech in the hopes of boosting their customers' confidence in going electric. Here's what it boils down to: If you currently drive a Tesla, you can keep charging at Tesla charging locations, which use the company's North American Charging Standard (NACS), which has long served it well. The chargers are thinner, more lightweight and easier to wrangle than other brands. If you currently drive a non-Tesla EV, you have to charge at a non-Tesla charging station like that of Electrify America or EVgo — which use the Combined Charging System (CCS) — unless you stumble upon a Tesla charger already equipped with the Magic Dock adapter. For years, CCS tech dominated EVs from everyone but Tesla. Starting next year, if you drive a non-Tesla EV (from the automakers that have announced they'll make the switch), you'll be able to charge at all Supercharger locations with an adapter. And by 2025, EVs from some automakers won't even need an adaptor. Here's how to charge up, depending on which EV you have: Ford 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E. Tim Levin/Insider Ford was the earliest traditional automaker to team up with Tesla for its charging tech. Current Ford EV owners — those driving a Ford electric vehicle already fitted with a CCS port — will be able to use a Tesla-developed adapter to access Tesla Superchargers starting in the spring. That means that, if you own a Mustang Mach-E or Ford F-150 Lightning, you will need the adapter in order to use a Tesla station come 2024. But Ford will equip its future EVs with the NACS port starting in 2025 — eliminating the need for any adapter. Owners of new Ford EVs will be able to pull into a Supercharger station and juice up, no problem. General Motors Cadillac Lyriq. Cadillac GM will also allow its EV drivers to plug into Tesla stations.
Jeep Wrangler Polar is a tasty frozen treat
Wed, 11 Sep 2013Perhaps it's because we've seen so many kitted-out examples over the years, but it seems to us that the Jeep Wrangler tends to wear its special-edition duds better than most models. It might be the icon's familiar rectilinear proportions or the inherent bolt-on look of its extremities - bumpers, mirrors, lighting, and step rails - but we've seen precious few factory specials that look anything but excellent.
Case in point: this new Jeep Wrangler Polar unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show. This European-market limited-edition model is said to be a celebration of winter driving, which evidently works out to a body-color hardtop, black-accent seven-slot grille, 18-inch gloss black wheels, Trac-Lok limited-slip differential and a hard hat for the spare tire. Finished here in Hydro Blue (Billet Silver Metallic and Bright White are also available) and a black interior with Polar White accents, the Polar edition features badges displaying 78° S and 106° E longitude and latitude coordinates for Vostok, Antarctica.
This new Jeep will be available in both standard and Unlimited formats with either the 3.6-liter Pentastar gas engine or the still-not-for-US 2.8-liter turbodiesel when it bows early next year. For further details, check out our gallery above and the press release below.
