Jeep Scrambler CJ8 Built Rock Crawler
1983 Jeep CJ
Built CJ8 Scrambler in great condition - ready to 4wheel and take you where no other rig can get you!
Jeep has been professionally built and very well maintained. Is an incredible (street legal) off- road crawler, will keep up with other 4 link buggies – no problem. Yes, she is street legal but prefers long hauls to be strapped on the trailer. Would not do well on the road as a daily driver.

There are likely a few other upgrades I’ve not remembered to mention, but as you can grasp, this is a serious off road machine that will not leave you stranded. Rare and mostly still originally intact but yet built CJ8 Scrambler; they only produced 25,000 of these bad boys. To keep with “old school” jeeping tradition this rig sets itself apart from all the others for sure and is a BEAST!
