Vehicle Description
This 1982 Jeep CJ8 Scrambler is a sharp-looking and capable 4x4.
This feeling comes from solid investments over the last decade that
keep this both attractive and rugged inside and out. So you'll love
everything from the real wood on the bed sides to a fresher
torque-filled powerhouse. It's all about making sure that this
lives up to the feeling of the vintage pickup of Jeeps.
This CJ8 is covered in a slick black paint that's the perfect
background for the silver Scrambler graphics package that runs the
profile of the truck. But even this tasteful accent package isn't
the brightest piece. The iconic seven-slot grille, side mirrors,
and 15-inch wheels all have a mirror-like shine. Plus, there are
nice details everywhere from the real wood bed stakes to the added
side steps. So yes, this is a standout Scrambler. We even have
pages of receipts documenting a large investment in this CJ8 from
2014 until now. But the money wasn't just about creating an
attractive classic, because after all, a proper Jeep still knows
how to get to work. That's why you have details like the LED front
lights, a beefy 4x4 stance, and liner paint in the bed.
This Scrambler is all about allowing you to choose your level of
open air. It's a sung hardtop pickup when you need closed security,
or you can remove the doors and top to have the best combined
utility of a Jeep and a truck. That makes this Scrambler versatile
and ideal for everyone from longboard surfers to those who
occasionally bring home large projects. There's a nice mix of added
ruggedness and comfort. The rhino-lined headliner, rhino-lined
floor, and deeply grooved rubber floor mats make this a robust
pickup. But you also have nice comforts, like a center console, cup
holders, and an AM/FM stereo with upgraded speakers and a USB input
for your phone. Plus, high-back bucket seats and a classic Jeep
steering wheel on a tilt column give you a commanding driving
position.
Under the hood is Jeep's robust 258 cubic-inch inline-six motor. We
love these for their torque, and this one is even a fresher Jasper
crate motor. So it's the right motor to be paired with the off-road
ready Jeeps. With a low first gear on the five-speed manual
transmission and a low range in the 4x4 transfer case, you can have
rock-crawling power... but that's not the whole story. There have
been thoughtful updates like the aluminum radiator with electric
fans to help keep this one running cool even when you're in
traffic. And the Red-Head steering gear box gives it a more stable
feeling on the road. Also, power steering, power brakes, and front
discs are welcomed additions in all conditions.
The sale comes complete with the owner's manual, maintenance
records, and plenty of build receipts. Scramblers are an awesome
way to enjoy vintage Jeep looks while getting added rarity and
versatility. So when you can find a nicely finished example like
this one, you know you need to hurry if you want to take it home.
