1983 Jeep Scrambler Cj-8 Cj8 on 2040-cars
Chicago, Illinois, United States
|
Up for auction is my 1983 Jeep scrambler CJ-8. It has the original 4.2L 258 engine that has 149892 miles on it. It also has the T5 5 speed manual trans in it too. Vehicle runs and drives but it runs rough and needs a tune-up. I bought this jeep with the intention of making a custom jeep for myself. Due to some family related things I need to sell it. It will have a low reserve and I have the title in my hand ready to go. This jeep is being sold as is with no warranty expressed, implied or given. Jeep scramblers are rare and this one isn't perfect but it's a canvas for a jeepers imagination. The jeep includes the factory half hard top and the back window has no cracks in it. It also includes original jeep bimini top and half soft top (both are black in color). The half soft top has the hardware but one of the supports is bent. The previous owner replaced the windshield frame but forgot to put back on the channel on top for the soft tops. The windshield has 2 cracks in it. the wiper motor works but the wipers are not hooked up to the jeep. All the interior lights work along with all the gauges too. The headlight indicator above the headlight switch is the only one that doesnt work. The body has plenty of solid panels on it and plenty or areas that need attention too. The frame is rusty but it's solid and can be used in my opinion. The jeep has 3 new tires on it and the fourth has about 1 season left in it. The hubs lock and unlock with no issue at all. The original bed is gone and the previous owner put down steel to make it work as you can see in the pics. The passenger seat is in great shape but the drivers seat has seen better days. The horn does not work. There's a lot of potential in this jeep. the floor is solid but does have rust and some holes in it too. Tube steps are solid too. Below is a list of things included with the jeep.
new front leaf springs factory half hard top original jeep half soft top and bimini top full bestop soft doors (tan in color) full steel hard doors (locks and windows work) 2 generic seat covers (brand new) 2 haynes jeep manuals original air cleaner assembly (no filter but could be useable?) wiper linkage and wiper arms The jeep is being sold with a low reserve and if the reserve is not met I reserve the right to sell to the closest bidder. The jeep is for sale locally too and I reserve the right to end the auction early if the jeep sells locally. The jeep is being sold with no warranty implied, expressed, or given. Any questions please feel free to ask. The vehicle is located in Chicago and can be seen in person if you're in Chicago. Please just message me. Thank you for looking and happy bidding. Any questions please feel free to ask. Thanks |

Another crazy custom Jeep Wrangler spotted in Morocco
Sun, 03 Mar 2013What in the world is the vehicle you see above? Well, um... yeah. We have no idea. According to the video description from YouTube, however, it's a modified Jeep Wrangler, and it comes from the same person who created the equally insane side-by-side merged Wrangler you saw here.
We can clearly make out the Wrangler-shaped passenger compartment up top, but as for the other bits and pieces that make up this rather amazing machine, your guess is as good as ours. At the very least, it seems to us that the car's wheelbase has been given a significant stretch, and the grille may have come from an International LoneStar Harley-Davidson Special Edition semi truck.
What other components are sourced from the massive International hauler? No idea. We suggest you check out the video below and draw your own conclusions. Oh, and if you've got any other ideas, feel free to let us know in the Comments.
Chrysler readying 20 Moparized vehicles for SEMA
Tue, 08 Oct 2013The Las Vegas Convention Center has plenty of space for aftermarket companies and automakers to show off their wares, and it looks like Chrysler is taking advantage of the spacious floor plan. At next month's SEMA Show, Chrysler will have a full 20 cars from its six brands decked out with Mopar gear.
As a hint of what is to come, Chrysler released a handful of teaser sketches showing glimpses of modified Jeep Cherokee, Ram 1500, Fiat 500L and Chrysler 300 concept vehicles. The automaker will also use the venue to show off a new line of Jeep Performance Parts offered by the all-new Mopar Off-Road Division. In addition to the images, Chrysler also issued a brief press release - posted below - breaking down some of the "industry-first features" that Mopar has offered in recent years.
Jeep's new Chip Away commercial has us hunting Al Pacino's back catalog
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Chrysler has done a pretty good job as of late turning its television commercials into pep talks or rallying cries, but for its first ad for the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee, it turned to Al Pacino's inspirational speech from the movie Any Given Sunday. In the movie, Pacino's character talks about how football is a game of inches, but the commercial, titled Chip Away, focuses more on the attention to detail that Jeep has exhibited on its updated flagship SUV.
Centering around the newest Grand Cherokee model, the luxurious $47,995 Summit trim level, the commercial shows off some of the hand-stitched leathers and real metal and wood accents found inside the cabin. Check out the new 60-second spot by scrolling below.
