1984 Jeep CJ-7 Base

The CJ7 Laredo only ran from 1982 through 1986, and 1984 sits right in the heart of that window. Two years later the CJ line was retired entirely and replaced by the Wrangler YJ, which was wider, softer, and more road-friendly in ways that the purist community never fully forgave. The Laredo was the top trim of the CJ7 lineup, bringing chrome bumpers, a chrome grille, wider fender flares, and distinctive Laredo badging that set it apart visually from everything below it. Under that was a Dana 30 front axle, Dana 44 rear axle, and the Dana 300 transfer case, which off-road enthusiasts still consider one of the strongest and most capable transfer cases ever bolted under a Jeep. This one is finished in Sebring Red with gold accents, brown leather inside, and a tan removable top, and it shows 81,000 miles. Under the hood is the 4.2 liter AMC inline six backed by the five-speed manual with four-wheel drive. The 258 cubic inch inline six that powers this truck earned a reputation over decades of Jeep, AMC, and early Chrysler service as one of the most durable and longest-lived engines ever put in an American vehicle. It is simple, torquey, and has proven itself capable of lasting well beyond what most engines of its era were ever asked to do. Inside, the brown leather interior is well matched to the Sebring Red exterior, and the gold accent details that define the Laredo package carry through consistently. The tan removable top gives you the open-air experience that the CJ was always built around, and the five-speed manual keeps the driver fully involved every mile of it. At 81,000 miles this truck has been driven and lived a life, which is exactly what a CJ7 Laredo was built for. Clean examples in this color combination with the five-speed are the ones the Jeep collector market actively seeks out, and with the CJ name off the market for nearly 40 years, that interest is not going anywhere.
