Vehicle Description
This 1982 Jeep CJ8 Scrambler is a sharp-looking 4x4. You'll spot
terrific investment in a fresh presentation inside and out. So
you'll love everything from the real wood in the truck bed to the
A/C interior. It all goes towards having one of the finest examples
of one of the rarest CJs around.
The iconic look of a CJ Jeep meets the utility of pickup - that's
what makes the Scrambler so instantly attractive. But this one has
much more going on here. The black paint has a fresh look that
makes sure everyone can see the modern clearcoat shine. So this one
announces it's a quality machine from the first impression. The
decal package looks just as fresh, and it goes with the brown
hardtop to give this one the sophistication of a Black & Tan
aristocrat. The brightwork looks even more impressive against these
darker colors, and so you really recognize the shine on the chrome
bumpers, hood hinges, side mirrors, and polished wheels. And all
the features seem to be extra thoughtful. For example, the fog
lights are real Marchal units, the roll bar is color-matched, and
there are proper side steps. Plus, not only do you have real wood
for the bed rails, but the bed has glossy real lumber, too. The
rear bumper is wide enough for a proper step, and there's still
room for a full-size spare on a swing-away mount.
We love a good Jeep because you can still remove the hardtop and
doors to open this one up to the world, but the appeal of this one
is it also knows how to be a feature-filled pickup that can be
properly buttoned-up for everyday kind of use. There has been a
solid investment here so that you have full carpeting, a smooth
dash, great-looking door panels, and Laredo-style high-back bucket
seats that practically look and feel new. There are desirable
features like the sliding rear window, a cup holder center console,
and cold-blowing air conditioning. There's even a retro-style AM/FM
stereo that comes with the sale. The clean/grippy steering wheel,
tilt steering column, and a full set of clear gauges - including
tach - all make this a great driver.
Under the hood is Jeep's 258 cubic-inch inline-six. This is quite a
desirable powerplant because it has spent decades at the heart of
the best Jeeps, and you can tell from the full presentation that
there has been a solid investment in the engine bay to restore this
to basically day-one status. You'll even love to point out details
like the correct decals and working courtesy light. The two-speed
transfer case and BF Goodrich All-Terrain T/A tires give you true
4x4 capability. But far more than just a mud-slinger, this CJ8 has
great anytime driving features like power steering, power brakes,
and front discs.
Complete with owner's manual, this has a level of fit, finish, and
care you may never find again. So if you're looking for a turn-key
stunner Jeep, call today!
