NKCrider Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 We picked up a new “project” this week, a Scrambler. 4.2L, manual, 4x4 with 11,000 original miles... 1st step is wait for the rain to clear up and take it to see if the paint can be brought back to life.

Kickin’Chicken Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Great find! Every time I see one I wish I’d never chopped13” off my ‘81 Scrambler back in the ‘90s. It went from a CJ8 to a CJ7.5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NKCrider Posted February 11, 2020 Author Share Posted February 11, 2020 My phone autocorrected 4.2 to 4.0 (guess i google 4.0 too much lol). I don't know the whole story, this is my old mans purchase... All i know is he bought it from the son of the original owner. The original owner passed away and apparently after much fighting between siblings the guy in our neighborhood got it. The day it showed up (over a year ago) my old man was drooling over it. They wouldnt sell it, after holding onto it waiting for a family member to get the cash together he finally offered us the opportunity to buy since he knows we also have 2 MJ’s and a Wagoneer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drahcir495 Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 ! It looks like it’s in amazing condition. I have been trying to respond with something for five minutes, but this says what I can’t A dream buy for sure. Head over to CJ-8.com and make a lot of people green with envy.

IMHO, the interior is the optimal color. Garage kept for 39 years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
