The Jeep CJ series is well-regarded, since it’s the first civilian product from this prolific American automaker since the famous World War II military Jeep. In fact, CJ stands for Civilian Jeep. The CJ series came about in 1944, and went through CJ-1, CJ-2, etc. The last of the series was the CJ-10A, which bowed out in 1986, to make way for the Jeep Wrangler. Along the way, the CJ-8 would emerge in 1981, as a long-wheelbase variant of the CJ-7. This particular 1982 Jeep CJ-8 Scrambler is up for sale with 120,000 miles on the clock, but was reportedly professionally restored and rebuilt approximately 10-12 years ago. It’s also got plenty of interesting features that we’d love to tell you about.

There’s a heavy-duty multi-point roll bar to keep you safe, chrome front and rear bumpers, a light bar, side steps and a lift kit for that characteristic high-riding stance. Then, you’ll find a set of aftermarket black and silver alloy wheels with BF Goodrich Mud Terrain T/A tires, all ready to go off-roading at your whim. The interior of this 1982 Jeep CJ-8 Scrambler has been reupholstered, and air conditioning was installed by the current owner after purchase. So, you can look forward to a comfortable cabin even during the hot summers that seem to be getting hotter and hotter with each passing year.

Engine
This 1982 Jeep CJ-8 Scrambler packs the much-renowned AMC 360ci V8 under the hood. The engine has been endowed with an Edelbrock intake, dual feed Holley 4V carbs, tube headers and a custom Flowmaster exhaust. It sends power to all four wheels via a manual gearbox and a Hi-Lo transfer case. Meanwhile, there are coilover shocks with a front sway bar, power steering, and power brakes. All this makes for a heck of an off-roading package that can also act as your daily driver.

Without a doubt, the Jeep CJ is one of the most revered and beloved American brands out there, especially the older models. It was the first commercial version of the military vehicle that served the US Army. The acronym CJ stands for “Civilian Jeep.” Off-road enthusiasts loved these vehicles due to their adaptability and the wide range of aftermarket services they delivered. The CJ-8 that saw the light of day in 1981 was officially named “Scrambler.” It is believed that this model's name was derived from the approach in which a Jeep and a pickup truck were combined, or scrambled together. These are rare to come by, but we have this stunning example of a 1985 Jeep CJ-8 Scrambler with over 309k miles on it. Situated in Terrebonne, Oregon, this trailblazer is a well-maintained vehicle that is waiting to be yours.

The build goes well beyond added horsepower, with AMW 60- and 80-series axles, front and rear ARB air lockers, 4.88 gearing, an upgraded transfer case, cylinder-assist steering, an 8-piston brake package, and an AMW suspension system.
