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.

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.

The Jeep CJ-8 Scrambler occupies a unique place in Jeep history as one of the brand’s most distinctive and collectible utility vehicles.

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.
This 1982 Jeep CJ-7 represents the classic Jeep formula taken to an enthusiast level, combining vintage 4x4 character with a comprehensive off-road build. Showing approximately 4,831 miles since the build, this CJ-7 has been extensively upgraded with a reinforced and powder-coated frame, Mountain Off-Road Enterprises suspension components, upgraded axles, four-wheel disc brakes, and a strengthened drivetrain designed for serious trail use. Finished in white with a black interior, it features a Clifford Performance blueprinted 292ci inline-six, NV4500 5-speed manual transmission, Atlas transfer case, MasterCraft Baja RS suspension seats, and a long list of purpose-built improvements.

The CJ-7 sits right in the sweet spot of classic Jeep history: compact, simple, unapologetically mechanical, and still built around the kind of body-on-frame 4x4 formula enthusiasts love. This 1986 Jeep CJ-7 Renegade takes that foundation and adds a long list of thoughtful upgrades, with the current owner reporting that the build took approximately two years to complete. Showing just 1,210 miles, it combines its classic Renegade identity with modernized fueling and ignition, a 5-speed manual transmission, a 2-inch suspension lift, a TDK frame, upgraded instrumentation, and a refreshed interior. Finished in Chevrolet Shark Gray with a black hard top, it has the rugged stance of a traditional CJ while bringing in just enough modern hardware to make it a particularly appealing enthusiast build.
The Wrangler Rubicon 392 is the kind of vehicle Jeep enthusiasts had been asking for long before it finally became reality—a genuine V8-powered Wrangler combining old-school muscle with the rugged personality of the Rubicon nameplate. This 2024 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 4x4 takes that already special formula and makes it even harder to miss thanks to its Lime Green exterior and custom paint job.
