1982 Jeep Cj-8 Scrambler on 2040-cars

Year:1982 Mileage:160000
Location:

Salt Lake City, Utah, United States

Salt Lake City, Utah, United States

 Up for sell is my 1982 jeep scrambler cj-8  

The jeep runs awesome and drives excellent. It has a 258 straight 6 engine with about 30,000 miles on the rebuild, a T-5 five speed transmission, and a Dana 300 transfer case.  The differentials are the stock Dana 30 in front and the model 20 in the rear. It has a 22 gallon gas tank and a tow package. It is equipped with a Weber carburetor, power steering, power brakes, aftermarket traction bars which all aid in the excellent driving of this classic scrambler. I have driven it on longer freeway drives as well as around town and it does great at all speeds. The 4 wheel drive works well and shifts in and out nicely although I haven’t used it much.

The jeep has  160,000 miles on it, and has spent most of its life in the Las Vegas area soaking in the hot sun with little to no exposure to weather and elements.  I feel confident in saying that it is rust free and in excellent shape. It should last another 30 plus years with no problem!

 In the past 2 years the following things have been done:

 

Sand blasted the body inside and out

Painted the jeep inside and out, and underneath with 3 coats of black and 3 coats of clear coat

Nutmeg scrambler Laredo decal kit

Painted the frame with a nice satin black

New body mount bushings

New Bf Goodrich 31x10.50x15 All terrain tires (currently have 90% tread)

Stainless steel accessories: Hood kit, windshield brackets, door brackets, front bumper, grill overlay, dash gauge cover, side mirrors, windshield knobs, and inner windshield brackets

Chrome diff covers front and rear

Alternator

Water pump, fan

Radiator

Fuel pump

Spare tire cover

Spice front seats

Driveline u-joints

All oils: engine, tranny, transfer case, front and rear differentials, and antifreeze

 

With all that being said it is still a used jeep and is not perfect. There are a couple paint dings that accrued when putting the jeep back together but are very minor.  The jeep is absolutely awesome!!!! But it was made in the 80’s people and if you keep that in mind you will be very Happy!!! This jeep has about  $20,000.00 invested  so please only bid if you have all the money, I do not want to wait for financing.  I wish I could keep this gem in my collection longer but I am going through a divorce and have to part with it.

 Under these circumstances  I am selling it as a NO RESERVE  auction highest bidder wins and can come drive it home. If that way doesn’t work I have a friend that owns a shipping company and can deliver to your house for a good deal, either way I am more then happy to help make this a good buying experience.  Please bid with confidence knowing that this jeep was well maintained and cared for. A scrambler in this condition is very hard to find so Good luck and I hope she finds a good home!  Thanks.

Jeep gunning to build 250,000 Cherokees a year

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

Contrary to what a certain politician may have said last year about Jeep moving to China, the automaker is in fact doing the opposite, with plans to greatly increase the production capacity at its Toledo North Assembly plant in Ohio. The Detroit Free Press is reporting that there are big plans for the 2014 Jeep Cherokee and Toledo North, as a local union president has informed the newspaper that Chrysler is planning to produce around 250,000 examples of the new midsize utility per year.
To put this number into context, 250,000 units is more than what Jeep Liberty sales totaled here over the last three years combined. Even taking into consideration that the 250,000 units will be distributed beyond US borders, that's an ambitious volume figure full-stop - and that's without taking into consideration the new Cherokee's love/hate design. In its favor, though, Jeep is making remarkable inroads globally as of late, and the Cherokee's size could work well in emerging markets. To get that kind of output from Toledo's Cherokee assembly line, Chrysler will reportedly hire 1,105 new workers - that's in addition to the 200 workers already being hired to build the popular Jeep Wrangler, which is itself expected to top 220,000 units this year.

China-FCA merger could be a win-win for everyone but politicians

Tue, Aug 15 2017

NEW YORK — Fiat Chrysler boss Sergio Marchionne has said the car industry needs to come together, cut costs and stop incinerating capital. So far, his words have mostly fallen on deaf ears among competitors in Europe and North America. But it appears Marchionne has finally found a receptive audience — in China. FCA shares soared Monday after trade publication Automotive News reported the $18 billion Italian-American conglomerate controlled by the Agnelli family rebuffed a takeover from an unidentified carmaker from the Chinese mainland. As ugly as the politics of such a combination may appear at first blush, a transaction could stack up industrially, and perhaps even financially. A Sino-U.S.-European merger would create the first truly global auto group. That could push consolidation to the next level elsewhere. Moreover, China is the world's top market for the SUVs that Jeep effectively invented, so it might benefit FCA financially. A combo would certainly help upgrade the domestic manufacturer; Chinese carmakers have gotten better at making cars, but struggle to build global brands, and they need to develop export markets. Though frivolous overseas shopping excursions by Chinese enterprises are being reined in by Beijing, acquisitions that support the modernization and transformation of strategic industries still receive support, and the government considers the automotive industry to be strategic. A purchase of FCA by Guangzhou Automobile, Great Wall or Dongfeng Motors would probably get the same stamp of approval ChemChina was given for its $43 billion takeover of Syngenta. What's standing in the way? Apart from price (Automotive News said FCA's board deemed the offer insufficient) there's the not-insignificant matter of politics. Even as FCA shares soared, President Donald Trump interrupted his vacation to instruct the U.S. Trade Representative to look into whether to investigate China's trade policies on intellectual property. Seeing storied Detroit brands like Jeep, Chrysler, Ram and Dodge handed off to a Chinese company would provoke howls among Trump's economic-nationalist supporters. It might not play well in Italy, either, to see Alfa Romeo and Maserati answering to Wuhan instead of Turin — though Automotive News said they might be spun off separately. Yet, as Morgan Stanley observes, "cars don't ship across oceans easily," and political considerations increasingly demand local manufacture of valuable products.

Blake Anderson drives an over-the-top patriotic Jeep

Thu, Jan 15 2015

Comedian Blake Anderson is seeing growing success as one of the stars and co-creators of the Comedy Central show Workaholics. Not surprisingly, when you get your own TV show, there's a deep desire to celebrate with a big purchase, a car perhaps. Anderson did just that, but as opposed to plunking his money down on a Porsche or Mercedes-Benz, he took a much more patriotic route. Anderson described his ride as "an American Jeep" in an interview with Conan O'Brien, and he didn't mean that it was from the AMC years of the off-road brand's ownership. Instead, this one is as patriotic as they come thanks to a beautifully regal bald eagle covering the hood with the nation's flag as the background running up at least to the windshield. Hear Anderson's entire story of buying this red, white and blue off-roader in the video above.
