*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.

Watch the 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Hellcat blast off
Thu, Jan 21 2016It's all but official. Jeep will produce a Hellcat version of the Grand Cherokee with crazy horsepower. We mean crazy. Today, our spy shooters have captured video footage of this demonic creation. It's pretty short, but you can see a dark Grand Cherokee launch with vigor and then brake hard to a halt. We think we detect the whine of a supercharger amid the commotion. Jeep boss Mike Manley has said on video that the JGC Hellcat will arrive before the end of next year. Specs aren't known, but it seems likely that the Jeep Hellcat will share the blown 6.2-liter V8 used in the Charger and Challenger Hellcats. We've also heard rumors the Trackhawk name could be used for this vehicle. In those applications, the beastly Hemi pumps out 707 manic horsepower. Really, why wouldn't you do this? Jeep sales surged 22 percent around the world last year to 1.2 million, the brand's best year ever. Clearly, Jeep decided it was time to add an extreme performance vehicle. Jeep already sells an SRT model that pumps out 475 hp, so adding a top-end Hellcat seems logical. And a Hell of a lot of fun. Related Video:

Jeep adds top-level, $35,690 Cherokee Overland trim [UPDATE]
Thu, Jan 14 2016UPDATE: We initially received incorrect pricing information. FCA says the Cherokee Overland will cost $35,690, including $995 for destination. If you want a more luxurious Jeep, you buy a Grand Cherokee Overland or Summit. But if the idea of dropping $45,000 to $51,000 gives you pause, you'll welcome the news that FCA's off-road brand will introduce a luxury-oriented version of its smaller, more affordable Cherokee. The new Cherokee Overland incorporates a number of cosmetic changes. All of the black plastic body elements have been replaced with body-colored items, improving the overall aesthetic. Jeep fitted handsome, polished 18-inch wheels along with chrome trim on the upper and lower grilles, and the halogen headlights have been swapped with standard bi-xenon units. Previously, the HID headlights were only available as part of an $1,845 Luxury Pack on the Cherokee Limited. In the cabin, the biggest change is found on the seats, where Nappa leather comes standard along with heating and ventilation functions. The steering wheel gets Zebrano wood trim, and instrument panel is wrapped in leather. Beyond that, the Overland is unsurprisingly well-equipped, with an Alpine Premium Audio system, FCA's excellent 8.4-inch UConnect system with navigation, and blind-spot monitoring with cross-traffic alert. The three big optional extras include the Cherokee's 3.2-liter V6, the Jeep Active Drive II all-wheel-drive system, and the Technology Group (auto high beams, lane departure warning, lane keep assist, forward collision warning, collision mitigation braking, park assist, adaptive cruise, front and rear park assist with rear stop, and automatic windshield wipers). Owners will also be able to snag a sunroof and a couple of smaller items, like a wireless charging pad. Prices for the Cherokee Overland start at $35,690 (including destination) with sales to begin this spring. Read on for the official announcement from Jeep. Jeep® Expands Cherokee Lineup with Premium Overland Model • New 2016 Jeep® Cherokee Overland debuts at New England International Auto Show • More premium Jeep Cherokee model boasts an unmatched combination of luxury and capability in the mid-size SUV segment • Cherokee Overland delivers sophisticated styling, a well-appointed interior, a long list of premium standard features, and legendary Jeep capability • New premium Cherokee Overland available in Jeep showrooms this spring • Jeep Cherokee sales increased 23 percent in 2015 BOSTON, Jan.
