I'm selling my 1983 Jeep CJ8 scrambler. If you know anything about jeeps you know the scramblers are rare and highly desirable. I hate to sell it but we have another baby on the way so its time to let it go. There is no way I will get all the money I've put in it back out of it but that's how these project go. Let me say first I will NOT trade unless it's for a 2012-14 Honda odyssey minivan with less than 30k miles on it with power doors and leather seats. I thought I would keep the jeep forever but selling it is the right thing to do so I have to let it go. We have put over 20k in this jeep over the years and that's not even including the original purchase price of the jeep or all the labor. Before I dumped all my time and money into it was already very clean. I looked at a bunch of scramblers before I bought this one. It wasn't rusted out or rotted the floors; inerfenders and whole tub was in great shape and very solid. When I had it painted they removed the little rust that was there and we replaced both front fenders with steel replacements and put on a new windshield frame. I spend 6k on the paint and body work alone it was done the right way so this jeep will look great for years to come. Here are the details on the jeep: I put in a huge AMC 360 5.9 liter motor with a hot cam in it. It has tons of torque and runs great! It starts up every time on the first crank and idles smooth. It has a 4 speed Borg-Warner T18 heavy duty transmission and Dana Spicer Model 300 Transfer Case. The foundation of the restoration was a brand new "Throttle Down Kustoms" Steel Frame so it has zero rust! -- Google it they are a great frame! When we Got the new frame we replaced all the body mounts, bushings and a ton of other parts. It has a Dana 44 front axle with warn hubs from a Jeep Waggoner. A Dana 60 from a 1ton Dodge with a locker in the rear. Both axles were shortened to fit under the jeep and matching widths. The axles have matching 4.56 gears in both with all fresh parts and one piece chromoly axles with 5x5.5 bolt pattern. Along with WARN hubs. It also has fresh breaks all the way around. It has 37 inch Goodyear Mud Terrains tires that have less than 5000 miles with matching spare on 15" steel wheels. It has a 4.5 in Rubicon express springs over axle lift. It has a brand new best top full soft top. It has a full custom roll cage. Its 2 separate pieces that bolt in so if you want the truck look its easy to take out. Rhino lined the interior and put in best top thermal seats. Up graded headlights along with Procom spots on the front bumper. Ruged Ridge ABS 6in Fender flares Off road Rampage TJ bumper with smittybilt conversion brackets. Poison Spider rockers Poison Spider rear bumper and tire swing. I have 2 sets of hard doors. One set is in perfect shape and one set is a little rough I was going to make half doors. It will come with both. This Jeep is a BEAST on or off road. It will crawl over anything you point it at but will also cruise around town all day. That being said it is a highly modified 30 year old jeep so know what your getting into. I would say this jeep is 85% from being perfect but all the big stuff is done. If your looking for a good looking fun jeep that your not scared to tinker with or maybe a good father son jeep this would be perfect. I have a clean blue Texas title in my name. CJ7, Wrangler, Monster, lifted, Offroad, off road, Hummer, Unimog, Mechanic Special, sell for more. cj, cj5, cj6, willis, willy, williys, yj, tj, jk, |

Australian Jeep marketing stunt goes awry [w/video]
Tue, 15 Jul 2014Jeep fans in Australia are none too happy with the off-road brand following a contest that saw ten new Cherokees sold for just $10,000 Australian (about $9,400), roughly a quarter of the vehicle's price Down Under.
The contest, called the "World's Most Remote Dealership," gave Aussies the chance to snag an ultra-affordable Cherokee Longitude (analogous to the US-spec Latitude trim), provided they could get to a secret dealership in the remote wilderness of western New South Wales, near the border with the state of South Australia.
In order to get the exact location of the dealership, though, potential customers needed to download an app, which would release a phone number 9:00 AM AEST on Thursday (7:00 PM EDT, Wednesday night). The first ten people who could call in and prove they could afford to finance $10,000 and get to the remote dealership, were given the location of the remote dealership.
Finding surfing spots in the UK is tough work, even in a Jeep
Sun, 06 Jul 2014You truly have to love surfing to practice the sport in the United Kingdom. The area isn't exactly teeming with warm beaches full of sunbathers, and absolutely no easy spots to find big waves. To be a UK surfer, you need to be a fearless adventurer, not to mention quite lucky. And driving a Jeep might help, too.
Surfers Oli Adams and Micah Lester are traveling around the British Isles in a Jeep Wrangler Overland trying to find the best surf spots out there. These guys don't fit the laid-back surfer stereotype, but that's because finding waves in the UK is hard work. They say that the waves at some of these spots only exist for about three hours every year when the current and winds are just right.
To find these surf spots, the Jeep's offroad capabilities are paramount. In some areas, as you'll see in the video, there isn't even a beach, just jagged rocks. It would be like the movie Endless Summer, that is, if it could start snowing at any moment. These guys are clearly dedicated to their sport.
Jeep Cherokee sales rival Wrangler after two months
Sun, 29 Dec 2013In our First Drive article on the 2014 Jeep Cherokee we said, "our informal and thoroughly unscientific opinion is they're going to sell tons of them. Why? Because it is very good." So far, it appears the public concurs. Of course, it's very early - the new compact utility has logged just one month of confirmed sales, but Larry Vellequette at Automotive News says dealers have told him that the second month of sales will be even better, a message that mirrors what we've heard from company execs.
In its first, severely truncated month on sale, the Cherokee sold 579 units. With all of November to play with, though, dealers moved 10,169 of them - compared to 11,753 Wranglers and 14,798 Grand Cherokees. That helped propel Jeep to a 30-percent year-on-year improvement for the month, Chrysler Group to a 16-percent improvement and the group's 44th consecutive month of sales growth, exceeding analyst expectations in posting its best November numbers since 2007.
If it can just keep replicating the its first month of sales, the finalist in North American Truck of the Year voting will smoke the trade done by the outgoing Liberty, which didn't break 7,900 units in a month in the last four years of its life (and normally didn't get close to even that). In March this year, Chrysler said it wants to build 250,000 Cherokees in its Toledo assembly plant for global sales. It's early yet, but with second-month sales quoted as being as "strong as death," the bookies might be resetting the odds.
