1983 Jeep CJ Scrambler Description

BARN FIND. 1983 Jeep CJ8 Scrambler in great condition. Perfect for a full restore or drive as is. We dug this out of a farmers barn a few months ago with every intention of keeping for ourselves, but just have to many irons in the fire currently. Jeep is 99% rust free and body is as straight as it came off the assembly line. The only rust is pictured and only 2 little spots, one below the gas filler, and one on the passenger rocker. This has been in the guy I bought it from family since new. They have oiled the frame and underneath with ATF since new, it shows. There is a good build up of oil/dirt on frame and under body, but scrape it off anywhere and it is factory paint. Frame is clean inside no dirt laying to rot from inside out. Bed channels and body mounts are solid as can be. The wheel wells and fenders are solid, we removed the plastic flare to show there is no rot at all behind them. Lower rocker is straight and still bent at the 90 degree lip it came with, along with the wheel wells. Windshield frame could stand to be replaced as the wiper motor busted it out as is very common, but works as is. The brake master cylinder leaks a little fluid and it runs down on the driver floor if left sitting, hence the paint peeled off floor its not rusted one bit. Runs and drives good, could probably use a tune up im sure. We pulled out of barn thru a battery and the brand new wheels/tires on it. It fired right up and has been running since with no issues other than stated. Do have fender flares, front bumper, spare dash, factory radio, mirrors, etc... to go with it. Few knobs are missing from dash but nothing major. Have tons more pics, or come check it out in person. Not hiding anything, if your serious I will throw on my lift and let you look it over for yourself. Located in Weedville PA 15868 clean title in my name.
