1985 Jeep CJ

I have a 1985 Jeep that still has the original paint and is 99. 9% rust free.   The Jeep began life with the 4-cylinder engine.   It lasted 71. 00 miles before it expired in 1996.   At this point previous owners son pulled the engine and had intentions of fixing it. but never happened.   The Jeep sat in the basement garage untouched until I bought it this past spring.   I proceeded to put a mildly built 4-bolt main Chevrolet 355 cubic inch small block engine in it with new clutch and pressure plate mated to a heavy duty GM 4-speed manual transmission with the granny low 1st gear.   Advance adapters conversion kit was used to install the Chevrolet parts.   New aluminum radiator. pulleys and brackets. heads and intake.   1969 Chevrolet truck block used.   4-bolt main caps.   Bored . 030 with flat top forged aluminum pistons. nbsp;steel crankshaft. clevite bearings. comp cams roller cam. roller rockers. nbsp;holley 650 cfm double pumper carb.   New HEI distributor and 8mm wires.   New headman headers and 4" Thrush side exhaust.   Reciepts for over 5. 00 in parts already spent on this Jeep.   It sounds great with a little thump from the cam.   Plenty of power.   All new belts and hoses. New hydraulic clutch cylinders and line.   New u-joints front and rear. new fuel lines. tank and sending unit.    Power steering and power disc brakes.   This Jeep is remarkable to be an original paint 1985 model.   Frame is perfect.   NO RUST.    Body has a couple of dime size spots that are not thru yet. (see pics).  1 on rocker panel and 1 in passengers side floor.  Nothing covered up on this Jeep.   It is original body and frame.    Rare factory CJ spring edition Jeep seats with minor wear on passenger side. (see pic)  All seat belts are in the Jeep.   Original owners manual and papers still in the glovebox.  It has a new bikini top on it now. but comes with a hard top. nbsp;hard doors and a set of half doors also.   Drive the Jeep as is or it would be an easy one to restore with very minimal bodywork.   Brand new B. F. Goodrich 32x11. 50x15 T/A All Terrain tires mounted on chrome 8" Jeep wheels.   Less than 100 miles on them.   Jeep drives very good with hardly any  play at all in the steering due to the low mileage on this Jeep.   Its a head turner for sure.   Thousands of dollars in receipts and too many hours to count spent on this Jeep already.   The hard work is done.   Selling due to back surgery preventing me from working on them anymore.   I will have the hardtop and doors put on the Jeep before it sells.     I will have 2 more listed along with this one.   Selling out.   Ebay will not let me put but 24 pics on here.   Email me and I can send any other pics that you may want.  I can help with shipping.   I have 2 that I can get you a quote if needed.   I would say drive this one home. but gas mileage is not too good at about 12 miles per gallon.   Ask any questions.   I check email daily.   Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.
