I have several CJ7s, but just picked up my first Scrambler. Looking forward to learning more about their differences as I dive into this project.

Meet “Annie”, the ‘82 red headed step child I probably have no business owning, but it’ll be fun none the less. She’s a one-owner from near San Antonio, but she’s been pretty weather beaten. 99% all original and all there, but I don’t think I’ll get a full restore. Probably a really good clean up and maybe a clear coating after some minor fixes.

Nice. Definitely looks like a pretty original SL version: original chrome wheels and appears like original paint. I spy an extra later-year rollbar too! We're here for advice.

Definitely a real survivor. I picked up the later roll bar to do the conversion to 3-pt seatbelts for safety. I definitely plan on bringing this one back to driving status.

Thanks .... I see you're in Dallas ... We're over in Tyler. (y)
 
Nice find, survivors are the best IMO.

BTW Some of the late production 82's had the shoulder belts/roll bar loops.
