This 1982 Jeep CJ-7 is powered by a Chevrolet-sourced 5.3-liter Vortec V8 mated to a five-speed manual transmission with a dual-range transfer case and a Detroit Truetrac differential.
The 5.3-liter Vortec V8 was installed in 2017.
Service included replacing the power steering pump, the intake manifold, the battery, and the steering gear box and shaft.
Power is routed to the rear or all four wheels via a five-speed manual transmission, a dual-range transfer case, and a Detroit Truetrac differential with heavy-duty axle shafts.
The truck was repainted in orange and features black wheel-arch flares, a padded roll bar, a black bikini top, side steps, halogen headlights, a hitch mounted cargo carrier, fabricated steel bumpers, and a Quadratec Stealth front winch.
Polished 15″ Pro Comp wheels are mounted with 33×12.5″ Cooper Discoverer STT tires, and a matching spare is mounted to the swing-away rear carrier.
Stopping power is provided by power-assisted front disc and rear drum brakes.
The interior features replacement front buckets seats and a rear bench upholstered in orange and black vinyl with orange piping.
Equipment includes a Pioneer stereo, aftermarket speakers, a black dash pad, replacement seat belts, and a locking center console with cup holders. A spot of rust is noted below the driver’s seat.
The Grant GT steering wheel fronts a painted dashboard housing centrally mounted Dakota Digital gauges including a 120-mph speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer, and gauges for fuel level, oil pressure, voltage, and coolant temperature.
The digital odometer shows 6k miles.
