Description
1985 Jeep CJ7 Renegade in very rare ONE YEAR ONLY color code 5B, which is Medium Green Metallic. This Jeep is one of the nicest survivors in existence! Unmolested and very original. Original paint, very low mileage, and absolutely zero rot anywhere! The interior is incredibly nice. I took the seats and carpet out to capture photos of the interior of the tub as good as possible. No tears to the original honey denim seats. Fold and tumble rear seat is beautiful, and the carpet is very nice. The carpet is not perfect, but an easy 8/10...and I'm picky. Look at the speedometer and the other gauges and you'll see how vibrant they are! Between the vibrant gauges and the black rocker panels (they turn silver over the years as the anodizing fades), you can tell this Jeep has lived a very pampered life. Very strong running 4.2L 258 motor, and the T4 transmission shifts nice and tight. 4WD engages perfectly. All lights, gauges, blinkers, etc. work perfectly. Soft top is in extremely nice condition with no tears, fading, or yellowing of the plastic windows. I have the original owners manual and tons of maintenance records. This Jeep was meticulously cared for, and you can easily tell! Here is some recent maintenance the Jeep received: October 21, 2015 the Jeep received a new rear main seal, oil pan gasket, and valve cover gasket Brand new Sunrider Best Top installed in March 2016 New battery cables in April 2017 Rear axle shaft bearing and seals replaced October 10, 2017. The engine is unmodified and runs perfectly. All the original vacuum lines are in place, and everything appears to be original. I purposely did not detail the Jeep or engine compartment as I want the buyer to see exactly how the Jeep stands presently. No surprises. I try to be as transparent as possible when selling a Jeep as nobody likes a headache. Below is the FULL disclosure of the Jeep to the best of my knowledge. Jeep appears to be 100% original paint inside and out. Some minor rock chips on the front fenders. Decals appear to be original except for the "RENEGADE" decal on the hood. Not sure why, but it was replaced at some point. Interior is very nice. Seats are 9.9/10. Carpet has a tear on the rear fender well seam, which can be repaired by sewing to make it undetectable. Some other minor cosmetic blemishes on the carpet. Check out the photos closely. Jeep had a new valve cover gasket put on in October 2015. However, new cover may be leaking (happens if not correctly installed/torqued). I re-torqued the bolts and that likely will correct the issue. If not, a few hours worth of work to make this a leak-free, reliable driver. Doors are not original and were painted to match. Doors are very close to original paint color, but not perfect. Some angles you can see that the color is ever so slightly off. Passenger side door only opens from the inside. I have not taken it apart to diagnose, but should be a very minor fix. Radio antenna is broken. Needs to be replaced. Radio power is disconnected, but does work. Jeep did not come with a center console. Battery is only 2 years old, but I've had to jump it twice. Front bumper has a slight bend on the passenger side. It can easily be repaired by a reputable body shop. As you can see, this is one of the better original Jeeps out there. I'd like to say fly in and drive it home and though I think it would make it anywhere, at the end of the day it is a old Jeep.
