Misc. Any help finding trim package is appreciated!!

[Brad88yj]

Hi I’ve rebuilt a 1988 YJ in the past and recently purchased a 1983 CJ7 and am looking for information on it. The vin number is 1jccm87aodt060149. I’m trying to find what package it is. It appears the original color is a goldish color and it only had one rear seat which is a black seat with two white stripes that appears to be a Laredo seat. Can anyone help? Ps it has 4speed with AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l

And please for the love of God post up some pictures of this Cj please.

The gold topaz with Laredo style seats had gold stripes. Only used on the Jamborees. Your horn button look like this?

First thing someone said was possibly a Wagoneer vin which was quickly ruled out by the 87 in the vin. 87 is the designation for Cj. 2H is indeed Topaz gold which was "supposed" to be on Jamborees and a few Wagoneers only. The next code looked at is the 5EB. Thats the designation for standard nutmeg vinyl seats. Jamborees had seats like you stated your rear is but with gold stripes. There is a different code for Jamboree seats.

Read through the definition of the Jamborees on this site. There are quite a few accessories that came with that Jeep all being relatively hard to find. If it has some of those accessories like the light bar or brush gaurd we can look into it further.

Honestly though you have something even more rare than a Jamboree. The only non Jamboree Cj in Topaz gold with a good vin to prove it. Whats your plans for it? Id try to stay as close as possible to that vin as you can while restoring it , if thats what you intend.

That’s awesome and the rear seats not original the guy gave me that and some low back black ones he had sitting around. I’d love to find out more about what I have but not really sure how? As far as restoring it yes that’s what I want is keep it original

Obviously the front brush guard isn’t the right one but the whole body is gold under the white. The entire firewall is still gold The interior floor is also gold it just has some type of plastic black liner on it that’s cracking off.

Looks pretty solid from what I can see. Especially if its truly a NY Cj. Can I get a passenger shot of that dash? Like from the temp controls to the edge so I can see the glovebox door? And did you figure out what drivetrain is in it?

There’s some pics I took showing how whole keep is gold like tag says. It has AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l 4spd not sure Transfer Case haven’t had time to look. Rear pumpkin is fully round so assuming it’s a Dana 20

And yes it very solid for up here! Honestly if it is that rare I’m not sure I’m the guy to try restoring it. Maybe it should go to someone that can do it justice?

 

[Petescj]

Transcer case would be a Dana 300 . Forget to add your Cj didnt come with a hardtop either. Somebody added that along the way

from what i can decode it had nutmeg high back seats I'm really leaning towards it being possible jamboree as it is completely chrome everywhere on interior

The "5EB" trim code on your data tag says the seats were originally Nutmeg, high back buckets in vinyl denim. And your "2H" paint code for Topaz Gold Metallic is indeed a unique combo. But not a Jamboree edition.

Yeah, I’m not thinking someone would cover up and hide having a Jambo.

Or register it as an '83 rather than the '82 Jamboree edition year. And from the Jambo registration site:

"On the exterior, all Jambos came standard with Topaz Gold Metallic paint, Jamboree hood lettering, chrome wheels, chrome bumpers/bumperettes, black soft top, black rocker trim (not chrome or bright aluminum), and special Jamboree spare tire cover. Late in the production run Jeep made a few (only about 70) Olympic White Jambos.

On the interior, Jambos had special black bucket seats with gold inserts (front and rear) to match the Topaz Gold Metallic paint, center console, black floor and wheelhouse carpeting, black padded roll bar, saddle bags, and special plaque denoting the production number mounted on the instrument panel.

Together, all of the content was known as the "Factory Jamboree Package."

Jambos also came with a 20-gallon fuel tank stock, the AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l 6cyl, 5-speed manual, and upgraded suspension and cooling system.

Now it is claimed that only Jambos could be ordered in Topaz Gold, but some got through anyway from custom orders (high sales dealers getting recognized and some company execs). So a non-Jambo in Topaz Gold with non-Jambo interior upholstery would still be a rare combo.

Yes I do not think it’s a Jamboree rather a very rare jeep entirely. After much research as far as I can see and have help with that color wasn’t even offered in 1983

Looks like a Base from https://www.vincheckup.com/

Mine also, and one of the rarest also, because it’s in great shape body and frame wise.

If you read this there isn’t supposed to be any other keep cj ever painted in the color. My tags prove mine is painted that color which means mine is exceptionally rare! Not base etc
