1 of 50
Vehicle Description This 1981 Jeep Scrambler CJ8 is a sharp-looking 4x4 that is a true choose your own adventure.
It comes with three top options, a back seat upgrade, and even fuel-injected power.
So dig deep into this rare Jeep that has had all the right investments to be the most versatile and fun classic you're likely to find.
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 blue paint is an upgrade from 2013.
It lets this outdoor-friendly Jeep have an attractive gloss in the sunshine, and at the same time, it's not so fancy that you'll be afraid to take this Jeep outdoors (that's the ideal balance for most of us.
) And if you really want to be a stunner, you'll enjoy the shine of the grille, bumpers, side mirrors, and 15-inch wheels (including the full-size spare on the swing away mount.
) In fact, this has been under the same owner for over seven years, who invested in everything from big ticket items to little details, like the new polished hinges.
You can tell they really loved this Scrambler.
That's why it has awesome details, like the newly refurbished hardtop.
It goes over the front of the cab to give this a truck-like profile, and it's painted a handsome gray to match the rockers.
Or if you want to cover the whole long wheelbase body, there's a folding soft top, too.
And for those days when you just want the sunshine off your shoulders, there's even a bikini top.
While most CJs give you the choice of being fully enclosed or fully open, this one still goes further.
Not only do you have the choice of tops, but as you look inside, you'll also see that this one has been outfitted with a back seat.
The Bestop material is weather resistant, so the second row can easily be outdoors, and it has a fold-and-tumble setup so that you can still utilize the cargo room of the longer wheelbase CJ8.
The front seats are always going to be comfortable with high-back buckets that have plenty of bolstering.
And there are nice upgrades, like a Tuffy lockbox center console that has cup holders and houses the AM/FM/CD stereo w/Bluetooth.
It's easy to get comfortable for any adventure with a grippy three-spoke steering wheel, tilt column, and full gauge package w/tach.
Under the hood is Jeep's 258 cubic-inch inline six.
This is quite a desirable powerplant because it has spent decades powering the best Jeeps, and the presentation here is just as tidy and respected as the rest of this Scrambler.
As you look closer you're going to spot a ton of newer components, including the water pump, fuel pump, steering box, gas tank, and an aluminum radiator.
And it's even now topped with a Holley electronic fuel injection system.
So it makes for a strong powerhouse for all conditions.
Other pieces that are great for all uses are items like new body bushings and a rebuilt four-speed manual transmission.
The two-speed transfer case, BDS 2.
5-inch suspension lift, and BF Goodrich Mud Terrain tires give you terrific 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.
We have a huge list of all the upgrades and plenty of build receipts.
Call now for all the details so we can show the history of long term care and investment on this special Scrambler.
