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.

Jeep’s CJ series led to what we know and love as the Jeep Wrangler today. Yes, one of Jeep’s most iconic models owes its existence to a model that debuted in 1944, and saw more than 1.5 million examples made until 1986. When World War II was coming to a conclusion, Willys-Overland knew that the market for their military Jeep would soon dry up. So, what they did was to adapt it for civilian use, particularly agricultural purposes. They realized that this would mean a fair bit of strengthening the drivetrain and some practical considerations. After all, unlike a battlefield Jeep with a lifespan of months, a civilian Jeep would work hard in the fields for years on end. The CJ series first debuted for public consumption with the CJ-2A or Universal Jeep. Throughout the years, the series progressed and we got the CJ-8 in 1981. Made until 1986, it sported a longer wheelbase and gained the name of Scrambler. Today, here’s a 1981 Jeep CJ-8 Scrambler for sale in Steamboat Springs, Colorado with 12,304 miles to its name. It’s a great classic off-roader to pick up, and, more importantly, one that can still get its wheels dirty if needed.
