1983 Jeep CJ Laredo (SL) Description

For sale is a very original 1983 Jeep CJ-8 Scrambler Laredo in the rare "Deep Night Blue" color. This is a true barn find with original paint and nice patina. Runs and drives. Enjoy as-is or restore and you will have a very valuable Jeep. These Scramblers are as rare as they come in the Jeep world, only around 28,000 ever made. This one has never been restored so there is nothing to hide, no rust covered up.
The floors on this Jeep are immaculate, nothing more than minor surface rust. This is a one-owner since new ranch Jeep, and I was told always kept inside a garage. Needs a tune up but does run and drive. I rebuilt the carburetor and it idles at 650 rpm. Starts easily on first crank. Battery is new. Has original ignition key that also matches the hard door locks.
Lights and electrical work. Minor work needed on front passenger fender which is slightly rolled out. A good body man should be able to get it back to shape and not break the paint. Factory console has key but it’s lid bracket is broken. Clock doesn't appear to be running but I have not looked into it. Might just need a fuse. Low miles (all original) 102,000. Laredo seats need to be cleaned but are in pretty decent shape. Everything is original under the hood. Rear bumper is damaged but fixable. This will be a GREAT jeep to restore and won't take much. You don't find solid original Scramblers like this often.
Winning bidder must pay within three days by wire, or cash in person. Shipping is the buyers responsibility- I would suggest uship for transport. I am available to meet your shipper load the Jeep onto a truck. Jeep is located in Dallas, Texas.
Thank you
