Just bought new scrambler

Thanks for all the replies. Will leave alone, going to do a bolt on rear Cage for kids rear seat and leave alone. Just need to find those wheels. Have had three sets over the years, never knew they would be worth keeping, dang it.
 
If you are talking about this bracket (red circle), it is not original and you can cut it off without fear.

Looks like the white wagons have a single black stripe. That means they are likely factory CJ wheels. They may have come with the Scrambler. I know they usually have chrome, but back then you could add or delete stuff more easily than today. Fact that the spare is a steelie, and the OP thinks is original, makes me think the white wheels are the stock, lower option, wheels.
 
The wheels there are white wagons but have more of a sharp triangular opening as compared to OEM. For reference, here is OEM. Andy, you have a PM .:thumbsup:

They sure seem like aftermarket wheels.have the red and blue stripes. I replied to all pms people wanting to buy it.
 
Well found nice stock wheels, have dialed every thing out. Awesome rig, will post pics tonight when I get the wheels mounted. Quration, was the spare the chrome spoke as well? I notice a lot just have tire covers. Is it a generic spare rim under it?
Thanks again.
 
Holy lord, I missed this until now. :eek: :eek: :eek:

So happy you decided to rock it in stock form, can't wait to see it with the chrome rims.

FYI, if it's for sale, it needs to be listed in the for sale subforum with a price that will buy it, please don't make it appear that you're accepting PMed offers to buy it. I hope you're just keeping it to admire and enjoy. :thumbsup:
 
Here are the pics with rims on. Also, not for sale. Just had abut 10 PMs people wanting it the day I put my post on, so just mentioned I replied. Again, not for sale. Now just need that spare wheel and she's done. Runs great, look pretty good, and works great with family. Thanks again for everyone's input.

w0w... That is .... like others have said "beautiful"!
Looks like a great find and flip if you need too. Having already found and moderately modified, a nice stock 83. I would certainly try to keep the good example of a sweet stock one .... stock.

Doubling your money is not the flip of the century and remember he found it (the hardest part) and he also has money and time and it and found the correct wheels etc. there is nothing wrong with this, it's certainly no home run either it's priced for now what a Laredo scrambler is worth, and well below what it would take to restore one from the ground up. We all wish we could find $8000 scramblers in our backyards so sometimes it's good to say hey, I wish that was me, and good for him. :wave: :twocents:
 
Come on now, no haters. Thanks jersey. Was a beautiful rig that was not the direction I wantd to go, and can't have two in the garage. Went to a better home and I agree price more realistic for condition. Again thanks for all the advice.
