Here is a beautiful 1985 Jeep CJ8 Scrambler Renegade SL-R Sport.  A very rare vehicle with the factory working tachometer and clock.  Full Laredo interior with Laredo door panels and seats (great condition with no rips or torn stitching). Tilt steering wheel.  Power steering and brakes.  Renegade decals on body and hood.  Factory chrome Laredo wheels (nice shape) and factory chrome Laredo front grille cover.  Hard top in excellent shape with no cracks.  The very reliable Jeep T-5 transmission with 5-Speed.  4WD works as it should. Previous owner owned vehicle for over 10 years.  I purchased from him in 2013 and decided to sell to buy a 4 seater Jeep.  This Scrambler has the original engine with 113K miles and an upgraded Weber carburator for better starting, idling, and gas mileage.  Runs beautifully and drives straight with no shakes.  Interior has a Tuffy Lock Box but I do have the original black center console.  No Radio, but is wired up for one.  All knobs on the dash work and all lights and gauges work well. Even has the original cigarette lighter.  In addition, I also have the original wood side bed rails.  They need to be completely redone, but at least I have them.  Bridgestone All-Terrain T/A tires.  Original light under the hood which works (See Pic).  After market rear bumper with towing hitch, but I do have the original chrome Laredo bumperettes.  Original swing-away spare tire carrier with chrome wheel and newer spare.  Driver seat has some give in the frame which allows it to slightly recline. As you can see from the pics, the paint is beautiful but it does have some flaws with some rust bubbles in a few different spots.  I've tried to detail the issues with pictures as best I could.  Also, being an East Coast Jeep, the frame has had some issues with rust but it has been seal coated with undercoating and any issues have not gotten worse in my ownership.  The same holds true with the paint.  Nothing has gotten worse in my ownership.  It does not have current PA inspection.  This is not a perfect Jeep but looks absolutely amazing and is a very rare vehicle, especially in this condition for the East Coast.  All pictures were taken before I even cleaned the Jeep so all chrome and paint will shine even more than they do in the pics. I am selling AS-IS so please, if you have an interest in it, please contact me in person to come see it and check it over for yourself.  I highly advise doing so.  I also have more pics or can take more pics if you need them.  1985 is the last year for the Scrambler (A few were badged as 1986s) and some will consider it to be the best year as well.  Thanks for looking, good luck, and Happy New Year.  Lee 610-322-8702.

Mopar is heading to the SEMA show in Las Vegas with a fleet of customized vehicles that appeal to enthusiasts of all stripes. There's a Dodge Viper ACR concept that follows in the lineage of the supercar's great road racing past, and a custom Ram ProMaster that might just be the ultimate outdoor party machine.
We got an inside look at Mopar's cars that will be on display at the show, which also include a Dodge Challenger T/A concept, two crazy Jeeps and a Ram 2500 Outdoorsman that could change the way you camp. While these are some of our favorites, Mopar is bringing plenty to SEMA, so let us know your top choices in the comments section.

2014 Jeep Cherokee facing production delay

Fri, 17 May 2013

Jeep's bold-faced new direction spearheaded by the 2014 Cherokee is facing some teething issues. According to a report by the Detroit Free Press, production start-up of the controversial new utility vehicle at its Toledo North facility is running about a month behind schedule "due to a wide range of issues." That's according to Mark Chernoby, senior vice president of engineering at Chrysler.
Chernoby maintains that the issues being encountered aren't unusual for the launch of a new vehicle - particularly one with a new powertrain - and he downplayed the delay, telling Jeep dealers that they "will have ample inventory of the midsize SUV by fall." Among the kinks being worked out? Calibrating the Cherokee's cutting-edge ZF nine-speed automatic transmission and refining assembly line tasks to make the process more efficient.
Chrysler expects to start building retail-ready versions of the Cherokee around mid-June, with official sales slated to start in September.

Jeep gives a trio of customs an encore showing at SEMA

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

While Jeep certainly had some new customs on display at this year's SEMA show, it wasn't afraid to recycle a few that people might have missed from earlier this year. The maker of many beloved off-roaders already displayed the Jeep Cherokee Dakar, Maximum Performance Wrangler and Wrangler Mojo at the 2014 Easter Safari, but they all made it to SEMA for an encore.
Based around the Trailhawk, the Cherokee Dakar (pictured above) imagines an even more off-road-capable version of the crossover. The concept wears a mix of Silver Steel Stain paint with Flame Red graphics and rides on 17-inch wheels wrapped in 33-inch BFGoodrich Mud Terrain tires. To back up the rugged look, the Dakar is fitted with rock rails and skid plates protecting the oil pan, front suspension, fuel tank and other underbody parts. It also sports prototype parts from Jeep Performance Parts, including a lift kit and fender flares.
The Wrangler is one of the paragons of off-roading, and as the name suggests, the Maximum Performance Wrangler concept is meant to be the ultimate example of what it can do. The custom features locking Dana 60 axles front and rear, a 4:1 Rock-Trac transfer case, prototype 4-inch lift kit and 37-inch Mud Terrain tires over beadlock wheels. To stay on the trails well into the night, a bar of LEDs is mounted above the windshield. And finally, the Mopar Blue exterior kind of makes the vehicle look like the world's toughest blueberry.
