Description

The CJ-7 was introduced in 1976 as a longer-wheelbase successor to the CJ-5, and the Golden Eagle package offered upscale trim, bold exterior graphics, and color-matched wheels—making it one of the most desirable trims of the CJ era.
This 1979 Jeep CJ-7 Golden Eagle is a factory V8 example that underwent a full frame-off restoration and is powered by its original 304ci AMC V8 paired with a 4-speed manual transmission and dual-range transfer case. Finished in correct Golden Ginger Metallic with factory-style Golden Eagle graphics, the Jeep is equipped with a removable hard top, period-correct wheels, power steering, power brakes, and a refinished interior featuring high-back vinyl seats.
