This timeless CJ was just about the purest expression of civilian-grade off-road fun ever created. This 1979 CJ7 offers a V8 power, cool colors, and a nice restoration to a largely stock specification, making it fairly rare in its own right, but that doesn't mean it isn't capable of going into some pretty gnarly territory all by itself. The Golden Eagle package dressed up the CJ in great '70s fashion, with bright colors and plenty of decals, and this black and gold one looks fantastic. I wonder if the Jeep designers ever heard from the guys over at Pontiac once this Jeep hit the streets, but I suppose that was the fashion and it's a look that is suddenly very much back in demand. The glossy black paint is modern urethane so it shines up nicely after a day of playing in the dirt, and while Jeeps were never renowned for their fit and finish, this one looks great!!
