1985 CJ-8 Scrambler Restoration

Got a piece of Jeep history fir the scrambler. Not in the best condition, but it’s the 1985 brochure for the scrambler and other Jeeps at that time.

So cool. I used to go to the car dealers in the Fall every year when the new models came out and get brochures on all of the cars and trucks. I started in the early 80's and stopped in the mid 2000's. I had to stop - I had too damn many boxes! I've got some really cool ones I separated out. One of my favorites was when the Acura NSX came out in '89 - it was a bound book.

That is so cool Bill, I’m really glad I’m old enough like Jerry is, to remember going to dealerships and actually seeing brand new CJs and J trucks on the lots. It’s just sad we can’t go back in time

Thats a cool score!!! Some cool literature to have with the scrambler!
I think the old decal set would add a nice touch to your build.

It really is. Wasn’t sure when I saw it on eBay.

Heather said absolutely not in the decals. I guess if she lets me have my fun, I have to listen every now and then 🤪

This is the only one she likes.

If you still have them and way too much time on your hands, they are starting to be worth some money!

So true, on the back in time part 🤣

I used to do that at the Detroit auto show every year. I still remember getting back home snd reading them for hours
