Used 1978 Jeep CJ7 for sale in Englewood, Colorado
Gateway Classic Cars of Denver is proud to present this 1978 Jeep CJ7 Golden Eagle With every new model and each passing year, Jeep seemingly forsakes its rough-and-tumble utilitarian heritage with increasingly plush lines of 4x4s.This is in order to appeal to a broader, more comfort-minded clientele - one that wants to appear sporty but in actuality just desires a cushy, powerful and distinctive daily driver.We neednt look any farther back in time than to the CJ-7 Golden Eagle special edition for a nice example of Jeeps early brand perversion.Upon the Golden Eagles debut in 1977, with its power features and side steps, I imagine good-ole-boy Jeep purists spat in the dirt in disgust. Meanwhile, I picture the entire population of Aspen, CO, throwing their hands in the air with jubilation.This was not a Jeep for bubbas and mud boggers, after all, but rather for ski instructors and stewardesses.While the Golden Eagle started with the CJ-5 in 1977, the switch to the CJ-7 platform gave it softer suspension and an elongated wheelbase. What Jeep designers did to the archetypal 44 to complete its Golden Eagle transformation would forever shock and appall purists.Do NOT miss your opportunity to own this mold breaking Jeep Golden Eagle!
