Description of 1981 Jeep CJ |
|
THIS IS A 1981 JEEP CJ8 SCRAMBLER(IT HAS QUITE A UNIQUE STORY AND I HAVE DOCUMENTATION TO BACK IT UP) FIRST THE BASICS ENGINE: 258 I6 (straight six)TRANSMISSION: 4-SPEED MANUAL 4x4COLOR:BLACK4X4 WITH LOCKING HUBSMILAGE: 85,000 ON BODY AND FRAMEMILAGE ON ENGINE: 15,000 APROX Jeep History THIS JEEP WAS BUILT IN TOLEDO, H AND SHIPPED UP TO VANCOUVER, A. IT WAS DRIVEN BY ITS FIRST OWNER UNTIL 1997. (ITS ODOMETER IS STILL IN KILOMETERS) IN 1997 THE SECOND OWNER OF THE JEEP HAD THE BODY TAKEN OFF THE FROM AND COMPLETELY GUTTED AND CLEANED UP. THE OWNER SANDBLASTED THE FRAME AND BODY TO PERFECTION. THEN HE WORKED ON RESTORING THE CJ8 TO ITS ORIGINAL CONDITION WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE LIFT THAT HE PUT ON IT. HE ALSO HAD THE ENGINE COMPLETELY FACTORY REBUILT AND HAS THE PERFECT AMOUNT OF GRUMBLE TO IT. NEEDLESS TO SAY HE GOT IT DIALED IN REAL NICE LIKE. YOU CAN SEE EVERYTHING DONE TO THE JEEP SINCE 1997 HAS PAPER WORK TO SHOW FOR IT. AFTER THAT THIS JEEP LITERALLY SAT IN HIS HEATED POLE BARN YEAR ROUND ONLY TAKING IT OUT DURING THE SUMMER TO DRIVE IT INTO TOWN WITH HIS KIDS. I TOLD YOU THAT TO TELL YOU THIS. THE JEEP HAS NOT SEEN RAIN OR SNOW IN 17 YEARS AT ALL. THERE IS NOT A LICK OF RUST ON THIS THING! NONE NOT AT ALL. YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME COME CHECK IT OUT FOR YOURSELF THIS THING IS CLEAN. (PLEASE CHECK OUT THE COLD START AND WALK AROUND VIDEO TO SEE IT FOR YOURSELF. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE EARLY IN 2015 AND GAVE THE CJ8 SOME BASIC MAINTENANCE AND SOME UPGRADES. NOW FOR ME THE BIGGEST EXAMPLE OF HOW GOOD OF CONDITION THIS JEEP IS IN WAS THAT I DROVE IT FROM VANCOUVER ISLAND ALL THE WAY TO MY HOME IN FORT WAYNE, N. THAT IS OVER 2,OOO+ MILES. WE DID IT IN JUST OVER 39 HOURS. (photos of the trip included in photos) LET ME SAY THAT AGAIN. WE DROVE IT CROSS COUNTRY THIS SUMMER AND WE DID NOT HAVE ONE ISSUE AT ALL. MILAGE FROM THE TRIP: 14.5 MPG NOW WHEN I GOT IT I MADE SOME ADJUSTMENTS MY SELF: LINEX THE BED AND FLOORBOARDS INSIDE THE CABUNDERCOAT APPLIED BY 14/69 CUPER CENTERNEW SEAT BRACKETS AND MOUNTSNEW FRONT (2) AND REAR SEATS (RUGGED RIDGE)NEW SIDE BARSNEW SIDE VIEW MIRRORSNEW DASH PADNEW SHIFTER BOOTNEW FLOOR MATS (RUGGED RIDGE)NEW WINDOW FRAMENEW WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTORNEW REAR SLIDING WINDOWNEW BLUETOOTH STEREONEW CENTER CONSOLENEW PITMAN ARMNEW BRAKE PADSNEW AIR FILTRATION SYSTEM ADDITIONAL ITEMS THAT AREINCLUDEDIN THE SALE(Includes with the sale of the Jeep)Ramsey 9000lb winchBrand new full soft top & FrameBikini Top with hardwareTransmission rebuild kit (was never actually needed)Extra back seat grayBack seat hardware for both gray and black seatextra truck cab window glasscj8 jeep window frame (old window frame)2- additional cj dash pads1-cj8 windshield wiper motor4-5x5.5 rugged ridge spacer (They were on but I removed them) This Jeep is dialed in.
