THIS SCRAMBLER WAS ORIGINALLY SOLD LOCALLY HERE IN ALABAMA, SO THE BODY AND FRAME HAVE NOT BEEN DESTROYED BY RUST. THE PICTURES SHOW THAT THIS JEEP EVEN RETAINS IT'S FACTORY STAMPED BED FLOORING THATS STILL IN GREAT SHAPE! THE PREVIOUS OWNER PAINTED THE EXTERIOR  FLAT BLACK TO GIVE IT AN OLD SCHOOL LOOK, AND LEFT THE INTERIOR IT'S FACTORY COLOR. THE FLOOR PANS ARE ORIGINAL, THEY HAVE PAINT, AND ONLY THE RIGHT SIDE HAS SOME SMALL PITTING HOLES DUE TO THE PLUGS HAVING BEEN REMOVED. THE CLOCK WAS REMOVED SOMETIME IN THE PAST. THE TACH, AND OTHER GAUGES WORK, AS WELL AS THE EXTERIOR LIGHTS. THIS SCRAMBLER STARTS QUICKLY, ALTHOUGH IT IS A LITTLE COLD-NATURED. THE TRUE MILEAGE IS NOT KNOWN. FACTORY POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES MAKES MANUEVERING IN TIGHT SPOTS A BREEZE. I DRIVE THIS JEEP ALL OVER TOWN, BUT THE ENGINE IS SHOWING SOME AGE. IF YOU ARE PLANNING ON DRIVING THIS CJ-8 DAILY, YOU WILL EVENTUALLY WANT TO CONSIDER A REBUILD. THE DISTRIBUTOR IS NEW, AS WELL AS THE COIL, AND THE CARBURETOR WAS REBUILD RECENTLY. THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS GREAT AND THE 4WD OPERATES AS IT SHOULD. THE MASTERCRAFT TIRES ARE NEW AND MOUNTED ON THE FACTORY CHROME WAGON WHEELS (CHROME IS NICE, BUT NEEDS POLISHING). AS YOU KNOW, ITS REALLY GETTING HARD TO FIND SCRAMBLERS THAT HAVEN'T HAD DIAMOND PLATE ADDED TO COVER RUST. THE PICTURES OF THE JEEP'S SIDES AND BED SHOWS ABSOLUTELY ZERO RUST ISSUES, SO WHETHER YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A RARE WEEKEND HUNTING 4X4 OR A SUPER STRAIGHT AND SOLID FOUNDATION FOR A COMPLETE RESTORATION, THEN THIS 1982 JEEP CJ-8 SCRAMBLER SL IS FOR YOU!!

Bring back the Bronco! Trademarks we hope are actually (someday) future car names

Tue, Mar 17 2015

Trademark filings are the tea leaves of the auto industry. Read them carefully – and interpret them correctly – and you might be previewing an automaker's future product plans. Yes, they're routinely filed to maintain the rights to an iconic name. And sometimes they're only for toys and clothing. But not always. Sometimes, the truth is right in front of us. The trademark is required because a company actually wants to use the name on a new car. With that in mind, here's a list of intriguing trademark filings we want to see go from paperwork to production reality. Trademark: Bronco Company: Ford Previous Use: The Bronco was a long-running SUV that lived from 1966-1996. It's one of America's original SUVs and was responsible for the increased popularity of the segment. Still, it's best known as O.J. Simpson's would-be getaway car. We think: The Bronco was an icon. Everyone seems to want a Wrangler-fighter – Ford used to have a good one. Enough time has passed that the O.J. police chase isn't the immediate image conjured by the Bronco anymore. Even if we're doing a wish list in no particular order, the Bronco still finds its way to the top. For now (unfortunately), it's just federal paperwork. Rumors on this one can get especially heated. The official word from a Ford spokesman is: "Companies renew trademark filings to maintain ownership and control of the mark, even if it is not currently used. Ford values the iconic Bronco name and history." Trademarks: Aviator, AV8R Company: Ford Previous Use: The Aviator was one of the shortest-run Lincolns ever, lasting for the 2003-2005 model years. It never found the sales success of the Ford Explorer, with which it shared a platform. We Think: The Aviator name no longer fits with Lincoln's naming nomenclature. Too bad, it's better than any other name Lincoln currently uses, save for its former big brother, the Navigator. Perhaps we're barking up the wrong tree, though. Ford has made several customized, aviation themed-Mustangs in the past, including one called the Mustang AV8R in 2008, which had cues from the US Air Force's F-22 Raptor fighter jet. It sold for $500,000 at auction, and the glass roof – which is reminiscent of a fighter jet cockpit – helped Ford popularize the feature. Trademark: EcoBeast Company: Ford Previous Use: None by major carmakers.

Jeep mulling power top for next Wrangler

Fri, 07 Mar 2014

Jeep is hard at work on the next-generation Wrangler, though the truck is still a few years from hitting the trails. The new model will still be aimed at off-roaders, but rumors suggest it will be a little more comfortable than previous versions to appeal to more people.
According to Road and Track, Jeep is developing a power-retractable top as an expensive option for the Wrangler. There is no word if the top in question is a sliding canvas rollback like the ones found on many European vehicles or a full convertible hardtop or softtop, nor do we know whether it would be made available on two- or four-door models. It might be a nice feature for some buyers but would certainly add complexity to a truck already known for its ruggedness. We asked Jeep for confirmation, but Jeep spokesperson Todd Goyer could only remind us that the company "can't comment about future products."
In news that is likely to irk the faithful, R&T reports the next model may also ditch its folding windshield for improved safety and possibly even get rid of its rear-mounted, full-size spare tire. The new Wrangler won't go completely soft, though, and will reportedly still feature removable doors and solid axles.

Auto Mergers and Acquisitions: Suicide or salvation?

Tue, Sep 8 2015

We love the Moses figure. A savior riding in from stage right with the ideas, the smarts, and the scrappiness to put things right. Alan Mullaly. Carroll Shelby. Lee Iacocca. Andrew Carnegie. Steve Jobs. Elon Musk. Bart Simpson. Sergio Marchionne does not likely view himself with Moses-like optics, but the CEO of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles recently gave a remarkable, perhaps prophetic interview with Automotive News about his interest and the inevitability of merging with a potential automotive partner like General Motors. Marchionne has been overtly public about his notion that GM must merge with FCA. For a bit of context, GM sold 9.9 million vehicles in 2014, posting $2.8 billion in net income, while FCA sold 4.75 million units and earned $2.4 billion in net income, painting a very rosy FCA earnings-to-sales picture. But that's not the entire picture. Most people in the auto industry still remember the trainwreck that was the DaimlerChrysler "merger" written in what turned out to be sand in 1998. It proved to be a master class in how not to fuse two companies, two cultures, two continents, and two management teams. Oh, it worked for the two individuals at both helms pre-merger. They got silly rich. And the industry itself was in a misty romance at the time with mergers and acquisitions. BMW bought Rolls-Royce. Volkswagen Group bought Bentley, Bugatti, and Lamborghini, putting all three brands into their rightful place in both products and positioning. No marriages there, so no false pretense. Finally, Nissan and Renault got married in 1999. A successful marriage requires several rare elements in this atmosphere of gas fumes and power lust. But a successful marriage requires several rare elements in this atmosphere of gas fumes and power lust, the principle part being honesty. Daimler and Chrysler lied to each other. The heads of each unit, the product planners, and finance all presented their then-current and long-range forecasts to each other with less-than-forthright accuracy. Daimler was the far greater equal and no one from the Chrysler side enjoyed that. The cultures were entirely different, too, and little was done to bridge that gap. Which brings me back to the present overtures by Marchionne to GM. "There are varying degrees of hugs," Marchionne stated in the Automotive News piece. "I can hug you nicely, I can hug you tightly, I can hug you like a bear, I can really hug you." Seriously?
