Looking to get behind the wheel of a ride with maximum visual impact? Look no further. Imagine the double takes you'll get when you're seen coming over the horizon in this 1985 Jeep CJ-7 Rat Rod. Its niche is all about transforming a vintage car into a no holds barred, one of a kind result, and with a surprisingly comfortable interior and ever-reliable 350 V8 powertrain, this uber-unique Jeep (if you can still call it that) delivers as one of the coolest rat rods we've ever seen.
With its military-themed exterior, long wheelbase and ultra-low profile, this CJ will stand out in any crowd of modded classics and conventional rat rods. It captures the spirit of what a rat rod was intended to be all along, but with an upgraded appearance that's equal parts hot rod and Mad Max. Picking a Jeep to turn into this amazing piece of custom machinery took a lot of guts to begin with, but executing it to this high level required even more skill. The tan finish is utilitarian to the max and accented with military decals and body armor add-ons, it's slammed on a custom frame that has been purposely finished with a patina look on the exposed sections, and the oversized wheels are spread out at the extreme corners of the vehicle, mounted outside of the body like all the first rat rods were. A few traditional Jeep cues remain on the tub, including the iconic grille and headlight setup, the lightweight doors, the roll bar, and circular taillights and tailgate, and even the side pipe exhaust looks somewhat familiar, although follow it up to the exposed engine bay and you'll quickly see the monster that powers this ride. Take your time and soak it all in, don't worry, we can't stop looking at it either.
Inside, it's part Jeep and part rat as well, and just like the exterior, the completed work is top notch. Low back buckets (like those commonly found in earlier CJ-5 models) provide comfort for two, and although dash/window frame set-up from a CJ remains, it's been augmented with a bedliner sprayed section that continues into a middle console that houses all the gauges and switches that manage this beast. The floors have been bedlined as well, and the B&M floor shifter that manages the TH350 automatic below sits on a nicely modded transmission tunnel that's an easy reach for the driver. A sporty Grant steering wheel sits atop a tilt column, the battery has been relocated and tucked under the dash, and an AM/FM stereo provides the tunes. With its ultra-rugged overall appearance, you wouldn't expect comfort, but believe it or not, this is one of those rare rat rods that you can actually enjoy driving.
A 350 cubic inch V8 sits in full view inside the compartment with its long-tube headers fully wrapped and poised as if ready to strike. It's a well-equipped engine, wearing a pair of M/T valve covers, a Dart II Sportsman intake manifold and a Holley 4-barrel carb that sits underneath that killer air cleaner. There's more than enough power when you consider how little this rod weighs, but it's not so overpowering that you'll be hanging on to dear life when you hit the throttle. The 350 pairs with a sturdy 3-speed automatic TH350 transmission and, with a giant Champion aluminum radiator and electric fan installed, overheating won't likely ever be an issue. Front disc brakes provide fade resistant stopping power, while the custom-made suspension and frame with giant solid axles and capable shocks and springs set the ride height and make driving much more pleasurable than you'd ever expect from a rat rod. It's one seriously head turning ride on its set of staggered Hostile wheels - 20-inch up front and 22-inch in the back, wrapped in grippy Nitto Grapplers at all four corners, in case you forgot that this is actually Jeep.
Sporting plenty of power, looks that will get all kinds of attention and a surprisingly comfortable interior, this unbelievable 1985 Jeep CJ-7 Rat Road is a unique find that won't last long. 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!
DISCLAIMER
: 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.
