This Jeep hits a particular sweet spot. The later CJ7s like this 1982 example carries the iconic design, and mixes it with desirable features that were not available on its older siblings, like the five-speed manual transmission. The CJ7 is the quintessential Jeep, combining the classic upright grille, topless fun, and a rugged but friendly demeanor. The Laredo was a premium package, and it looks the part, especially dressed in its maroon. The deeper, more sophisticated tone comes from an investment in a professional respray. Plus, it does a great job of highlighting the two-tone silver stripes, chrome bumpers, and the chromed iconic seven-slat grille. And those upgraded bright wheels add both toughness and flair. Plus, while all Jeeps look great with the top down, this one continues its attractiveness with the doors and roof in place thanks to a newer Bestop soft top. The new black soft top was a great investment, but we all really enjoy it when these Jeeps are open to the world. That's why we love the level of preservation/restoration inside. Nearly everything looks new, including the Rugged Ridge covers on the seats. The front buckets are comfortable on the trail, and when it's time to go out on the town, they combine with newer dash pad and chrome dash plate for a quite sharp package. Under the hood is a 258 cubic-inch inline-six motor that's a long established powerplant for Jeep. It's part of what built the CJ's go-anywhere reputation and continues to have easy parts availability. And this one looks like it has been treated correctly, including a new carb rebuild, new brake master cylinder, and a new hood heat shield. The five-speed manual is great for driving in-town, and when the pavement ends, it works with the two-speed transfer case to feed the seriously beefy axles at both ends. A handsome Jeep with all the right upgrades and features makes for the perfect classic 4x4. AM/FM✔ Bluetooth
