Look through our inventory and you will see a lot of vintage Jeeps, but this stunning 1986 CJ-7 LS1 Restomod might just be the coolest (not to mention the fastest and most powerful) one that we've ever featured, and that's not faint praise. With a slick Red paint job, Renegade decals, and an imposing lift, it looks amazing from any angle and thanks to a stout, 5.7L LS1 Corvette V8 under the hood and a 5-speed gearbox, it has huge performance that'll definitely deliver the shock and awe we all crave.
The bottom line is that someone took a really nice original Jeep (arguably the most desirable year for a CJ) and treated it a show-stopping restoration. Not many AMC products ever fit together this well or had paint that was this clean and glossy, and any part that didn't measure up to the owner's admittedly high standards, well, it got tossed and a brand new item was installed in its place. The bodywork was done right too, and it's obvious the tub underneath that shiny red finish is extremely solid, one look at the laser-straight lines all-around prove that to be true. The shiny, deep red paint was laid down by professionals that didn't treat the job as 'just some old Jeep', but with the same quality and care seen on higher-end classic vehicles. It's been driven and enjoyed since the restoration was completed so it's no longer perfect, although an easy buff-and-wax would likely restore some of that former glory, or drive it like the top driver-quality rig it is today, knowing that any minor imperfections are absolutely dwarfed by the sheer curb appeal of this beauty. Proper Renegade decals were reinstalled, along with black fender flares, a chrome grille surround, polished rocker panel molding, LED lighting, and, of course, those cool asymmetrical side mirrors that only look right on a Jeep. There's also a custom set of heavy-duty bumpers fore and aft that add to the Jeep's sporty look, and a set of side KC foglights were added on either side of the push bar. It's hard to convey with just words and photos how nice this Jeep is, but when you see it in person, you'll understand.
The interior also received a major makeover, complete with fresh high-back bucket seats, a locking center console, a stock rear bench, and a full YJ-style roll cage that stiffens the body and provides safety for all inside. The tub floor is covered in black spray-in bedliner material that's durable as well as attractive and highlights the functional appeal of the CJ-7. Jeep's all-in-one center-mounted gauge is still place, as is the factory tachometer to the right of the steering column, although a trio of auxiliary units were added to help keep a closer eye on the upgraded drivetrain. That's likely this Jeep's original steering wheel, which is quite a rare find in such nice condition, and it's mounted atop a tilt column that provides a lot more room at the head of the cockpit. A tall, chrome Hurst shifter with an 8-ball knob was installed to manage the upgraded 5-speed gearbox, and those twin-sticks next to it manage the upgraded Dana axles below, but if that's not entertainment enough for you an upgraded Kenwood AM/FM/CD/AUX head unit was stashed inside the center console and it powers a BOOMING stereo system with speakers and amplifiers stashed throughout. And yes, don't worry, a full tan canvas top and matching doors are included, so you don't need to worry about the weather spoiling your fun.
Most CJ-7s had inline-sixes, but the builders of this Jeep wanted a whole heck of a lot more power, so a 5.7L LS1 V8 was installed under the hood that takes this Jeep into the virtual stratosphere. Borrowed from a 2001 Corvette, the all-aluminum small block was dropped between the inner fenders like it always belonged, and because the work was done right, it fits just right. With 241 heads, modern fuel-injection, upgraded wiring, an upgraded PCM unit and pedal-to-module harness, and block-hugging long-tube headers at the flanks, it's an incredibly strong runner that's also very dependable and can be serviced at any competent shop that's worked on LS engines. It sparks to life with the flick of a key, is insanely responsive up-and-down the throttle, and is just flat-out FAST – unlike any CJ we've ever driven. A big aluminum radiator with an electric fan keeps the whole show nice and cool, and the soundtrack is downright sexy thanks to a dual exhaust system that features glasspack-style mufflers and side pipes that exit just before the rear wheels. Everywhere you look there's evidence of quality workmanship and thoughtful upgrades, including a tube skid plate that protects the transmission and stiffens the frame, and although the undercarriage hasn't been detailed for show, it's obvious that it's solid as can be. With all that Corvette power under the hood, you better have a transmission that can handle it, and the swapped-in Aisin-Warner AX15 5-speed manual is up to the task with an added synchro/bearing kit, a G-Force main case, and upgraded gears. That's a Dana 30 differential up front and a heavy-duty Moser 20 one-piece rear end with 4.10 gear ratio out back, and a 4.5-inch Extreme Terrain lift kit was installed by the pros at 4-Wheel Parts meaning this CJ is ready to traverse pretty much anything you can throw at it off-road. It performs quite nicely on the road as well, with help of an upgraded AGR power steering box, front disc brakes, and a front steering stabilizer. A flashy set of 15-inch Pro Comp wheels wrapped with beefy 33x12.50-15 off-road radials finish off the killer look.
This Jeep is top-notch in just about every way, with beautiful cosmetics and an amazing upgraded LS1/5-speed powertrain. They just don't come much better than this. Call today!

General Terms
Terms & Conditions
We recognize the need for complete transparency when buying/selling vehicles on eBay. That said, we did not build, modify, or have the luxury of personal ownership that would give us the advantage of knowing all unknown aspects of each vehicle. Transparency is king and we're happy to try and answer ALL questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we welcome and encourage independent inspections (see Inspection statement below).
FEES
: A documentation fee of 9 will be added to the purchase price at the time of sale. Sale price does not include any Title, License, Registration, State or Local Taxes or Processing Fees. We recommend you familiarize yourself with your individual state's taxes, transfer, or additional fees.
AVAILABILITY
: Please inquire prior to purchase to assure any advertised vehicle is not already sold. We advertise across multiple platforms where a vehicle can sell in a moment's notice. Vehicles may be sold prior to eBay listing end, and we reserve the right to end listings early or to cancel bids/offers solely at our discretion and shall not be held liable for any such cancellation.
CONTACT
: Note that you may hear from us after to the sale, but if you are a winning bidder, click a Buy-It-Now, or we accept your eBay Offer, it is your responsibility to contact us within 24 hours.
INSPECTION
: VERY IMPORTANT. If a buyer chooses to buy sight unseen (many of our buyers choose this option) the buyer accepts the vehicle AS-IS and understands we cannot address concerns post sale. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer/buyer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale.
PAYMENT
: We require a non-refundable 0 deposit within 48 hours of winning or commitment to purchase. Full payment is required within 7 days of offer acceptance unless other arrangements are agreed to in writing. If deposit and/or full payment are not provided within said timeframe, all vehicles will be relisted and transaction will be considered void. For balance of payment we will accept bank wire transfer (preferred), cashier's check, or personal check (vehicle shipment will be delayed until check clears).We also offer vehicle financing, please inquire for details prior to making bids/offers.
SHIPPING
: We have access to a network of private and commercial carriers. Most of them can deliver the vehicle to your driveway and upon your schedule. We assume no responsibility for damages or delays incurred once a vehicle is in a shipper's custody. Buyers are welcomed to trailer vehicles home and we are happy to have everything ready to see you off with your new vehicle.
DRIVE IT HOME
: If you plan to buy and drive home, please keep some things in mind. Anything is possible when it comes to a vehicle, especially a classic or antique one. We recommend transporting all vehicles to your home first, then driving it locally. Get to know the vehicle and its tendencies before embarking on a long-distance trip. If you choose to drive your new vehicle home, buyer accepts all responsibility as we are unable to control what may take place once it leaves our facility.
DOCUMENTS & VEHICLE TITLE
: All purchase documents are sent immediately upon purchase. To avoid delays, we recommend returning any required documents within 24 hours of receipt. Please allow up to 30 days for vehicle titles. Usually titles are available sooner, we ask for the extra time in the event there are unforeseen circumstances.
VIN VERIFICATION
: We photograph the primary VIN location of every vehicle and make sure that VIN exactly matches the vehicle's current title. Buyer agrees to hold seller harmless from any disputes arising from other hidden or secondary VINs present on the vehicle as seller only verifies the primary VIN location. If needed, it is the buyer's sole responsibility to verify secondary VIN locations their specific state may inspect, prior to purchase.
MILEAGES
: Occasionally our vehicles may be driven or simply moved around our facilities. Slight differences may occur so we recommend you confirm actual and current miles prior to purchase.
CONDITION
: We cover the obvious and do our best to describe our vehicles in detail. Even so, please have a transparent conversation with us before purchasing. Do be aware that all pre-owned vehicles, regardless of age, mileage, or manufacturer are subject to cosmetic wear and mechanical failure. Finally, be advised that although our sales associates are here to assist you with your purchase, they are not trained or certified vehicle inspectors.
AS-IS
: All vehicles are sold "AS IS" and with no warranties expressed or implied. If you choose to waive inspection, do plan to have a detailed and transparent conversation with us regarding the vehicle's condition. Ask the hard questions up front. Please just call us, we are here to help and welcome all your questions!

: This site and all advertising information may be updated without notice whenever new information is obtained and may contain mistakes and inaccuracies. Information is provided to the best of our knowledge and we make no warranty or representation regarding the accuracy, truth, or reliability of such information. We cannot be responsible for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies contained in information provided by the consignor/seller of the vehicle. We strive to perform extensive visual inspections on all vehicles we represent but we do not disassemble vehicles or components for inspection purposes and therefore it is always possible that there is hidden damage that is not readily apparent. All vehicles are sold AS-IS with no warranties expressed or implied.
Fees and Taxes
Sales tax, title, license fee, registration fee, dealer documentary fee, finance charges, emission testing fees, and compliance fees are additional to the advertised price. Vehicle is listed locally, we reserve the right to end the auction at any time.
