Just paid $750 for this....Mostly because i wanted to keep him from parting it out. Like I needed another long term project/financial pit. I actually looks nicer than it is. The frame is a mess, gas tank is falling out and it has body damage from where the idiot i bought it from pushed it...

HOW DID THIS GET UNDER EVENTS??? Thanks Eric... The purchase may happen this weekend and then i will start the process of finding someone who wants to save it. My jeep is back to the way it was with everything fixed and improved but looking the same as it always has. We will see if anything...

I found a local scrambler for under a grand.:shvil: It has some body rust And the frame is likely shot. I think I can get it for 700 dollars. It has a straight. six that may or may not run. I would either be sell it Or sell it for parts. Although I would rather see it be saved. Is there...

Good luck Eric... its great to hear that all is moving in a positive-ish direction. I cant imagine the emotions you go thru on that "roller coaster" but know that, in the end, what is meant to be will realized. scott

What sux for me IS the warmth. 50 here in Michigan yesterday. last year we had over 100 inches of snow. This year 16 inches. I feel robbed of the winter that should have been.

Im guessing someone from "jersey shore" is gonna buy it...

I WAAAAAS going to use that as the model for my rebuild. I guess i will rethink :)

Hey Vonman, When are you getting that thing back? Im anxious to see it I am now $1500 into the frame repair, u-joints, ball joints, rocker arms, and brakes. This coming week we have another $500 into frame straightening and alignment. THEN, I can start straightening the body back out...

I figured someone must have talked about these before. How funny that even the Jeep dealer didn't know what to call it. I did find JK-8's on line. It is just a conversion kit from mopar for $5400. I'm kindof offended that they put the "8" on it but use a wrangler to build. Its like they...

You guys know about these? Its sitting at a local jeep dealer for 60k. A buddy took the pic for me. He asked the dealer and said it was called an xj-8. I have plans to stop by and find out more when i have time... but maybe you all can save me the trip. Thanks

I could use a little advice in the arena of frame repair. I just found a hole in my frame at the front /rear shackle mount, drivers side. Is there a place that makes a frame repair kit for the scrambler?? I have found them for wranglers and cj 7's but not for the scrambler. THanks for...

canyonero Cincy... did you really referance "Homer Simpson's Canyonero"? That referance is about as unique as that cool arse jeep. Nicely played

Background: When i bought my 8 in '01 i had always had a vision of taking it back to the way it sat on the show room floor. I bought it as a restoration project but over time has become a preservation project. I concider the jeep to be in fair shape compared to many origionals i see but rust...

Onlyinacj.... you got me beat brotha. My hats off. Id like to see your jeep post resto. Insurance turned out ok. Never once talked about the age of the jeep or the condition it's in. He found a bunch of extra things i didn't even notice. Fixing and painting the enire front end. The...

No... its not a jeep you would have seen. I have tried to get the previous owner to join us on the forum and at silver lake. He is a bit of an oddball so... He was the guy I sold the world cab and doors to. I think he still has a scrambler tho, i will check he's only 3 miles away. Also, new...

"Sorry to hear of the accident. Is the frame itself shifted or just the front axle?" She caught the backside of the bumber and it broke at the hole where it attatches to the frame, so i THINK the frame is ok. I have to check with the adjuster about making sure it, and the axle, are ok. ON...

"Mind telling us who you're with for ins?" thanks for the well wishes. Im with all state. They keep telling me i am gonna be fine. Adjuster coming on saturday. I will let you know how it goes. How do you inset the quotes like that???

Saturday was a sad day... Turning into my hunting property a lady in a cherokee tried passing me on the right. As she slammed on her brakes and skidded into the yard she clipped the right front side of my jeep at 40 mph. Her skid marks measured 45 feet long on a dirt road. She, of course, got...

Thanks for any help you can give. Do the origional whitco 1/2 cab tops need a "bow bracket" or "bow Socket" or both to install? If so, does anyone have a picture of either or know where they can be purchased? I really need find this out. Thanks

Hey guys... In case you are looking, I just listed my 1/2 top and doors on ebay... these are in REALLY nice shape and could be a good finishing touch for a nice jeep...
