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 registers Trackhawk trademark
Wed, 01 Oct 2014There may not be many ways to forecast what an automaker is planning for the future, but there are some. Trademark applications are one of them, and Chrysler has just applied with the US Patent and Trademark Office to protect the name "Trackhawk." The question is, what's it planning on using it for? We don't know for sure, but we can put together an educated guess or two. And one guess is that Jeep will use the name to replace the letters SRT on the performance version of the Grand Cherokee.
How do we figure, you ask? From a number of developments. For starters, the SRT division has been reintegrated into the Dodge brand. Those letters currently appear on only two vehicles from outside the Dodge lineup: one is the Grand Cherokee SRT, and the other is the Chrysler 300 SRT. We've heard ruminations (however unconfirmed) that the latter could be either discontinued or possibly relabeled, and if the same proves true of the GC, the Trackhawk name could serve as a on-road performance counterpart to the Trailhawk label applied to off-road versions of models like the Cherokee and Renegade.
Logical it may be, but it's hardly a foregone conclusion. The Trackhawk name could just as easily be used for a new concept (like the Trailhawk name was in 2007), for another kind of trim level or for something else entirely. In fact we don't even know for sure it'll be used by the Jeep brand specifically, or used at all for that matter. Automakers have been known, after all, to register names they don't end up using.
NHTSA closes book on Jeep 'trailer hitch' recall after all
Mon, 20 Jan 2014After much debating and hand-wringing, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration now says it has "no reservations" with Chrysler's plan to recall certain Jeep Liberty and Grand Cherokee models over concerns that their fuel tanks, which are located behind the rear axle, could rupture or leak in the event of a rear impact. The longstanding argument between the two entities saw Chrysler openly defy the Feds after a request to recall 2.7 million units back in June.
Chrysler's "voluntary campaign" will instead see it recall 1.56-million 1993-2004 model year Grand Cherokee SUVs, along with 2002-2007 Liberty models. Affected vehicles will get a trailer hitch installed free of charge, which Chrysler says will provide an additional degree of protection for the fuel tanks in the event of a crash. Jeeps with Mopar-branded hitches or hitches that were installed at the factory aren't affected by this recall.
Chrysler's argument throughout this battle has been that the Jeeps in question are no more susceptible to fires than comparable vehicles from the same time period, a position that NHTSA has seemingly arrived at as well. "Those vehicles performed at a rate similar to their peers. That is the keystone analysis as to whether something poses an unreasonable risk to safety," said outgoing NHTSA boss David Strickland during an interview with the The Associated Press.
Chrysler teases upcoming outlay of SEMA cars
Wed, 15 Oct 2014Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is hauling a multitude of modified models to the annual SEMA show in Las Vegas this November, and the company is releasing the first teasing sketches of many of them.
Unfortunately, FCA isn't giving many solid details on any of the concepts other than saying the vehicles from Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Ram and Fiat all benefit from tuning from its Mopar performance brand. The teaser photos include a sinister-looking Chrysler 200S, Fiat 500 Abarth with two-tone paint and a scorpion on the hood, a red and black 500L, seemingly two different takes on the Jeep Renegade, a green Dodge Challenger wearing the T/A badge, an orange and black Dart, a very neon Charger, just the outline of a red and black Viper, a Ram ProMaster in Mopar livery and a Ram pickup called the Outdoorsman.
Take a look through the gallery to see what you think of the sketches for these concepts, and scroll down for the full announcement from FCA.
