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.

Chrysler highlights Mopar lineup for SEMA
Wed, 30 Oct 2013SEMA is all about aftermarket parts, and in Auburn Hills that all comes down to one name: Mopar. After having previewed its lineup for this year's Vegas tuner expo earlier this month, Chrysler has now revealed what may not quite be its full dossier of modified show cars, but a good portion of them.
All told Mopar is preparing 20 vehicles for display at SEMA this year. Among them you'll find the Ram Sun Chaser, a 1500 Quad Cab show truck kitted out in two-tone orange and black paint, a roof rack for surfboards, onboard shower and convertible tailgate. The white Fiat 500L is called the Adventurer and is modified for a more rugged look that could hint at the upcoming crossover version. The Jeep Cherokee Trail Carver upgrades on the Trailhawk package with everything from roof basket to rock rails. To counterbalance the off-roaders, there's also a modified Chrysler 300S with a deep black paint job, special grille, Varvatos-edition wheels and more.
All four concepts details so far have Katzkin interiors as well, and there's also an unspecified Dodge Durango with a storm-trooper look in the gallery above. But for more details on what Mopar has installed on the Ram, 500L, Cherokee and 300, you'll want to delve into the press release below.
2016 Jeep Wrangler to ditch solid axles to save weight?
Tue, 29 Oct 2013Hey, Jeep fans. If you think the idea of a funky-looking, car-based Cherokee revival is offensive, have a listen to what might be in store for the next-gen Jeep Wrangler. Automotive News is reporting that as Jeep develops the 2016 Wrangler, weight reduction is a crucial target, and the Wrangler's rugged solid axles could be sacrificed in the name of better fuel economy.
We've already heard the next Wrangler will go on a serious diet using aluminum body panels and an air suspension system, so the idea of a four-wheel independent suspension setup for this OG SUV isn't all that surprising. Besides, it's not like an independent suspension would limit the Wrangler's off-road abilities - just check out the Hummer H1. In fact, it might be the aftermarket parts companies - not Wrangler enthusiasts - who would be most disappointed by such a drastic suspension change, as the article states that the Wrangler's solid axles and coil-link suspension make it the most popular SUV for customization.
There are probably still a couple years before we'll start hearing any concrete details about the 2016 Wrangler, at which time it will be interesting to see how stricter fuel economy and crash safety regulations have been balanced with traditional Wrangler cues like its removable doors and roof and folding windshield. Let us know in the comments below if a Wrangler sans solid axles is any less of a Wrangler.
Jeep Wrangler Polar is a tasty frozen treat
Wed, 11 Sep 2013Perhaps it's because we've seen so many kitted-out examples over the years, but it seems to us that the Jeep Wrangler tends to wear its special-edition duds better than most models. It might be the icon's familiar rectilinear proportions or the inherent bolt-on look of its extremities - bumpers, mirrors, lighting, and step rails - but we've seen precious few factory specials that look anything but excellent.
Case in point: this new Jeep Wrangler Polar unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show. This European-market limited-edition model is said to be a celebration of winter driving, which evidently works out to a body-color hardtop, black-accent seven-slot grille, 18-inch gloss black wheels, Trac-Lok limited-slip differential and a hard hat for the spare tire. Finished here in Hydro Blue (Billet Silver Metallic and Bright White are also available) and a black interior with Polar White accents, the Polar edition features badges displaying 78° S and 106° E longitude and latitude coordinates for Vostok, Antarctica.
This new Jeep will be available in both standard and Unlimited formats with either the 3.6-liter Pentastar gas engine or the still-not-for-US 2.8-liter turbodiesel when it bows early next year. For further details, check out our gallery above and the press release below.
