1984 Jeep Scrambler CJ8
DETAILS: For auction is my unrestored, original, 1984 Jeep Scrambler CJ8 4X4 with 74,006 original miles. This Jeep is finished in original Sebring red with a gorgeous red interior. The stock white wheels, hardtop and trim on the doors really set off the color combination. This Jeep is equipped with the inline 6 cylinder motor (258ci), an automatic transmission, air conditioning, power steering and power brakes. This vehicle rides and drives extremely smooth and is very tight. The four wheel drive works as it should. The exterior has gorgeous original paint and decals. It shines very nice. As it is original and was driven, however slight, It does have a few chips and dents (mostly the spot welds from the factory-people familiar will know exactly what I mean). The bed is free of rust and is in very nice original condition. There is some very small bubbles appearing near the bottom of the round panel under the rear license plate (very slight, you might observe in the photographs).
The interior is amazing. The dash pad has no cracks, there are no rips in the seats, the door panels are pristine. The carpets are very nice. The gauges are awesome with just the slightest amount of patina. The only thing that I have found not original in the interior is the aftermarket radio that was installed some time ago. Everything works (yes the clock), minus the stated dinosaur "upgraded" radio.
The undercarriage shows like one (or better than one) with this amount of miles. It is very clear and shows a minimal amount of wear. There is no rust through. The engine compartment also shows very well with original stickers in place.
The vehicle also has its original dealer supplied documents included (owners manual, etc.)
See the photographs for further and inquire if additional are needed. The reserve amount will not be divulged but, it will be more than fair compared to some I have observed to sell in the last couple of weeks.
HISTORY: The parents of a very close friend of mine owned this vehicle clear back in the 90's. It was always garaged and I could use half of one hand if asked how many times I personally saw it out of their garage. I always told them that when they went to sell the vehicle to let me know. This happened in 2012. The vehicle was purchased and I did have some maintenance performed. This consisted of a new carb, fuel lines, valve cover (replaced the oem plastic one that warps with an aluminum) and gaskets, brake pads, all fluids, etc. I am ONLY selling this vehicle to generate capital for a business venture. Period. It really makes me sick.
PAYMENT: There is a $500.00 deposit due within 24 hours of the conclusion of the auction with the remaining balance due, in full, within seven days of the conclusion of the auction. I will accept payment by means of cash (if picking up in person), bank cashier's check, bank transfer, personal check, etc. NOTE: This vehicle WILL NOT leave my premises prior to your funds clearing my financial institution (usually seven to ten business days). And NO, I will not take a check from overseas and send you cash back. LOL. Good one.
SHIPPING: This is the responsibility of the purchaser. I will aid in anyway that I can but, I am not responsible for the vehicle once it leaves my possession. I can be available for pickup from a transportation company, just ask. Also, the purchaser may pick the vehicle up at my residence.
CLOSING: I challenge you to find a better survivor Jeep Scrambler. As nice of an original vehicle that this is, it still is a 29 year old Jeep. Therefore, there is no warranty expressed or implied. Please contact me if any additional photographs are needed. I will not take any trades (see above for reason of sale). If I have failed to list anything necessary, do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you and good luck in the auction.

FCA goes all-in on Jeep and Ram brands on cheap gas bet
Wed, Jan 27 2016It's no surprise that as SUV and truck sales remain strong in the wake of unusually cheap gas, Jeep and Ram sales are taking off. What is a surprise is that FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne thinks that cheap gas will be a "permanent condition," and feels strongly enough about it to change up North American manufacturing plans. Jeep appears to be the biggest beneficiary of the product realignment. In addition to increasing the sales estimates for the brand worldwide upwards to 2 million units a year by 2018, the brand will get a flood of investment for new product and powertrains. Consider the Wrangler Pickup to be part of the salvo, as well as the Grand Wagoneer three-row announced in 2014 as part of the original five-year plan. The Wrangler four-door will get at least two new powertrains, a diesel and mild hybrid version, in its next generation. That mild hybrid powertrain may utilize a 48-volt electrical system like the one that's being developed by Delphi and Bosch – which the suppliers think will be worth a 10 to 15 percent fuel economy gain at a minimum. Down the road, in the 2020s, the Wrangler could adopt a full hybrid system. The diesel powertrain is planned for 2019 or 2020. The Ram 1500 is also pegged to receive a mild hybrid system, again potentially based on 48-volt architecture, sometime after 2020. Lastly, Jeep and Ram will take over some of the production capacity of existing plants. The Sterling Heights, MI, plant that builds the Chrysler 200 will now build the Ram 1500; the Belvidere, IL, facility that produces the Dodge Dart will take over Cherokee output; the big Jeep facility in Toledo, OH, will be used for increased Wrangler demand. In 2015, according to FCA's numbers, car and van demand went down by 10 percent, but SUV demand went up 8 percent and truck demand 2 percent. Considering that these are high-margin vehicles, FCA can't ignore the math. FCA also won't build any new factories to supplement production to meet demand, but instead are reshuffling production priorities. Think of it this way: FCA is gambling on cheap gas being a permanent part of our lives, at least into the 2020s. By doubling down on SUVs and trucks, the company stands to win big, unless a spike in gas prices changes the landscape. FCA isn't talking about a Plan B, so they're all in. It'll be interesting to see how this plays out.
2014 Jeep Cherokee: June 2014
Wed, 09 Jul 2014I got a text message from Editor-In-Chief Sharon Carty one afternoon proclaiming that her new favorite SUV is our long-term 2014 Jeep Cherokee. And she's not alone. I'm not sure if anyone else on staff would go so far as to use the "favorite" descriptor, but after just over a month of honeymooning with our new long-termer, it's safe to say that the Jeep is quickly finding its way into the good graces of a number of Autoblog staffers.
There's good reason for all that praise, too. Thus far, the Jeep has proven itself to be incredibly competent and comfortable for daily life - it's functional, quiet, and packed with a host of amenities that make it easy to live with. It's been wholly trouble-free (with less than 4,000 miles on the clock as of this writing, it ought to be), but even nitpicks have been few and far between.
