This 1983 Jeep CJ8 Scrambler is a rare find — a full frame-off restoration completed about twelve years ago and still in exceptional condition today. Built by Toy Box Jeeps and meticulously maintained as part of a private collection, it blends classic open-air Jeep fun with serious performance upgrades.
When it comes to personality, Scramblers sit in a class of their own — long-bed proportions, iconic 80s styling, and a presence that immediately says let’s go somewhere. This one takes that spirit even further.
Under the hood, you’ll find a powerful AMC 401 V8, enhanced with mass-flow multipoint fuel injection (installed here at JeepHeritage) for improved drivability, responsiveness, and reliability. Paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, it delivers a rowdy, engaging driving experience that feels right at home on twisty backroads or seaside cruisers.
A Currie 9-inch rear axle was installed to handle the upgraded power, while a stainless-steel dual exhaust provides a throaty, sporty tone that matches the Scrambler’s bright red attitude.

Whether you’re cruising the Texas Hill Country, loading up for the beach, or parking it at a local show, this Scrambler has the look and the performance to make an impression. With fewer and fewer restored CJ8s available — especially those with high-quality upgrades — this is an opportunity to own a fun, fast, and standout classic Jeep.
As it sits, the scrambler is ready to enjoy immediately.
But if the next owner wants to take it even further, upgrades can be explored — from a modern HEMI, to a 6-speed manual, to Vigilante-style enhancements.
