*no Reserve* Rust-free Cj8 Scrambler - V8 - New Paint - Runs Excellent on 2040-cars
Lawrence, Kansas, United States
|
Yes, there are really 385 miles on this restoration. This one is a steal at the opening bid price. Parts alone far exceeded the starting bid. The Scrambler has a rebuilt 304 V8 engine, with a fresh carb and runs great. There are absolutely no known drivetrain flaws. The Scrambler runs down the highway well, even with the lift and massive, 35-inch Super Swampers. The drivetrain is tight and responsive, and there are no leaks or drips. It has been professionally built and adult owned. It has never spent the night outside.
The Scrambler has a new, professional, 6 mil paint job. It has a 100% rust free, clean steel body, and has never been off-road or abused. My painter claims he’s never seen anything like it.
The Scrambler has a rebuilt Dana 300 transfer case. The entire drivetrain, suspension, body, interior, and electrical have been gone through and updated. The only known defect is an intermittent gas gauge. All of the gauges and sending units are new.
Drivetrain Small block V8, 304 CID: rebuilt, less than 1000 miles Headers Fresh Holley carburetor T-15, heavy duty, 3-speed transmission; generally considered the heaviest-duty 3-speed transmission ever manufactured: rebuilt, less than 1000 miles Dana 300 transfer case: widely considered the best transfer case ever manufactured; rebuilt, less than 1000 miles Dana 44 (upgraded) rear axle, replacing the standard Model 20 rear end Dana 30 front end New front disc brakes; stops great
Body 100% rust-free body New neoprene body grommits Rock solid frame Fold-down windshield (which I’ve never had down) Rugged Ridge double front bumper Custom, super heavy duty rear bumper Bushwacker fender flares
Paint This is a true, 6-mil, three-stage professional paint job. Needless to say, this isn’t typically what you find on a classic jeep. The first coat is Deltron epoxy primer; if you know your paint, you know that this is as good as it gets. No exterior surface has less than two coats of PPG 4273 Radiant Fire Red. Everything was wet sanded and buffed appropriately.
Wheels and tires 35-inch Super Swamper tires Warn locking hubs
Interior High-back, BesTop Aqua front seats, in very good condition Completely Linx’d interior All new gauges All new sending units Locking Tuffy center console, set up for concealed stereo, in very good condition New heater core and defroster unit Billet aluminum knobs
Extras Brand new Warn CE M8000 winch, with remote, never used Dual Glaspaks All trim pieces are stainless steel Hard half-doors, in good condition Bikini top, in good condition Lots of spare parts, should you want them, including Original exhaust brackets Army jerry cans 1981 Chilton’s CJ guide A pair of stainless steel 1000lb tow hooks A new WindJammer, which I’ve never had on Anything else I might turn up
Legal If you have any questions whatsoever, please ask. If you would like pictures of anything in particular, please let me know prior to bidding. I encourage you to inspect the vehicle prior to purchase. I will be happy to facilitate you and/or your chosen mechanic’s inspection prior to the end of the auction. I try to be as thorough as possible, but I’m not an expert or a mechanic, so please take the time to ask questions, and look at all of the pictures. At the end of the day, the vehicle is listed in ‘AS-IS’ condition, and no warranties or guarantees are made or implied.
Ultimately, by bidding you are entering into a legal contract. There will be no exceptions, and I won’t hesitate to utilize all appropriate legal avenues to enforce the bidding contract. The winning bidder will pay a $500 non-refundable deposit at the close of the auction. The balance will be paid within 48 hours. I’m happy to accept funds via wire transfer or cash.

2014 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year finalists announced [w/poll]
Tue, 10 Dec 2013The 2014 North American International Auto Show is right around the corner, which means it's high time we found out which cars and trucks would be finalists for the prestigious North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards.
The finalists - three in cars and three in three trucks/utilities - are dominated by American brands, with two-thirds of the finalists hailing from either General Motors or Chrysler (don't worry Ford, there's always next year), while outliers from Mazda and Acura can be found in each contest. Here now is the list of finalists for the big prizes:
2014 North American Car of the Year:
Chrysler recalls 468,700 Jeep Grand Cherokees, Commanders over rollaway risk
Mon, 13 May 2013Chrysler has issued a recall covering a combined 469,000 units of the 2005-2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee and the 2006-2010 Jeep Commander (inset). Of that number, 295,000 are in the US, roughly 33,000 in Canada and Mexico and the remainder in other markets. It seems an electrical fault in the transfer case can allow the affected SUVs to shift into neutral on their own, while an Associated Press report says that Chrysler had "found cracks in a circuit board that turns the four-wheel-drive system on and off." The issue was discovered when an owner started his car remotely and it rolled away.
Chrysler is expected to begin notifying owners in June 2013, who can then take their cars to dealers. The dealer will reflash the final drive controller free of charge. There's a bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below with more information.
Jeep Wrangler Polar Edition coming to America
Wed, 23 Oct 2013Jeep originally took the wraps off its Polar Edition Wrangler at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September, and at the time, we figured this would be a Europe-only affair. (Perfectly fine, since we US customers haven't exactly been lacking special edition Wrangler models over the years.) But now, and as Jeep says, just in time for winter, the automaker has announced that the ice cold Wrangler will be hitting North American showrooms in November.
Based on the Wrangler Sahara model, the Polar Edition can be had in either two- or four-door body styles, with a unique Hydro Blue paint job as the featured color. (Buyers can also opt for less-special Billet Silver and Bright White hues.) Other exterior enhancements include a body-colored hardtop, 18-inch gloss black wheels, the Powerdome (power bulge) hood, and unique decals all around the body.
But the Polar Edition isn't just about some paint and stickers. Jeep has fitted this Wrangler with a Dana 30 front axle and Dan 44 rear axle, as well as the Trac-Lok anti-spin electronic rear differential. Like all US-spec Wranglers, the Polar Edition uses Jeep's 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, producing 285 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. Both a six-speed manual and five-speed automatic transmission are available.
