This 1986 Jeep CJ-7 was initially delivered to Frank Parra Jeep of Irving, Texas, and is finished in black over Garnet Red upholstery. Power is supplied by a 4.2-liter inline-six mated to a five-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case, and additional equipment includes a removable black hardtop, a soft top, a one-inch suspension lift, 15″ polished wheels, front disc brakes, manually locking front hubs, power steering, and a Retro Classic Radio. The truck was acquired by the seller in 2017 and subsequent work included the replacement of the rear main seal, oil pan gasket, valve cover gasket, alternator, battery, water pump, tie rods, steering gearbox, U-Joints, and rear pinion seal. This CJ-7 is now offered with factory bumpers, YJ half doors, a bikini top, a soft top window storage case, spare parts, a window sticker, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Virginia title in the seller’s name.

The truck was finished from the factory in Classic Black and received a repaint in 2001. Exterior features include a removable hardtop, black wheel arch flares, aftermarket bumpers, and 5″ KC halogen lights. The seller notes blemishes around the body, and a loose driver-side window gasket on the hard top. A red bikini top, a black soft top, YJ half doors, factory bumpers, side mirrors, and a hard top to body seal kit are included in the sale.

Polished 15” wheels are wrapped in 31×10.5” BFGoodrich All-Terrain tires, and a matching spare is secured to the rear carrier. The truck features front disc brakes, power steering, manually locking front hubs, and a one-inch suspension kit that included springs and shocks. Work performed since 2021 has included installing an AGR Super Box steering gearbox and brace and a steering shaft brace in addition to replacement sway bar bushings, front wheel bearings, and tie rods. The gearbox is noted to leak.

The cabin houses front bucket seats and a rear bench trimmed in Garnet Red vinyl upholstery, and equipment includes a roll bar, a center console, a flexible phone mount, a color-matched leather-wrapped grab bar, spray-in bedliner flooring, and a Retro Classic RC900C Radio linked to an aftermarket amplifier and speakers. A one-inch driver’s seat lift and an adjustable passenger seat bracket have reportedly been installed as well as replacement seatbelts and aluminum dashboard knobs. The heater cables were adjusted in April 2022, and the seller notes the dashboard pad has had a hole repaired, the air conditioning is inoperable, and the center console is fading. A replacement passenger seat lift is included in the sale.

Centrally located instrumentation consists of an 85-mph speedometer and gauges for coolant temperature, fuel level, voltage, and oil pressure. The five-digit odometer shows 92k miles, approximately 7k miles of which have been added under current ownership.

The AMC 4.2-liter inline-six received a replacement rear main seal, oil pan gasket, coolant overflow tank, and washer fluid container as well as an oil change in October 2022. Additional work under current ownership included a carburetor adjustment and the replacement of the valve cover gasket, engine mount bolt, alternator, battery, and water pump.

Power is sent to the rear or all four wheels through a five-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. The flywheel was resurfaced and the front transmission seal, input shaft seal, transmission mount, and clutch were replaced in November 2015. Work performed since 2020 has included the replacement of the rear drive shaft, transfer case linkage, U-joints, intermediate shaft and joint, rear pinion seal, and clutch linkage.

The window sticker shows initial delivery to Frank Parra Jeep of Irving, Texas, factory equipment and colors, and a total MSRP of $12,239.

The Carfax report shows no accidents or other damage and lists history in Texas, Ohio, and Virginia.
