This is my dad’s business partners Scrambler. We just sold it for him. I don’t know why anyone would ever sell this thing... he just wanted a really nice custom boat instead.

Guess he got tired of driving it and wanted a boat instead. Needless to say it’s been very fun to drive and tinker on while it’s been in our hands.

Here is a build sheet. Lots of $$$ invested in this one.

Exterior
5.3 Vortec Motor
Dual optima batteries
New manual transmission
Custom drives shafts
Dana 30 front with warn lockout hubs
Dana 44 rear with ARB air locker
Custom driveshafts
BFG KM2’s
Fox shocks
Extended fenders
Warn synthetic rope winch
Light bars all the way around
Poison spyder corner guards
Poison spyder bumpers
Poison spyder rock guards
Quick receiver hitch disconect steps
Bedlined drab green paint job
On board air with train horns
Custom roll cage with removeable gun racks
Custom diamond plate removable roof

Interior:
Mastercraft heated front seats
Mastercraft rear back seat
Custom bench seats that match the mastercraft seats
tan bedlined floor


This thing is built and ready to go! The exhaust would make a mustang owner blush. Really wish we could hang on to this one.

As you can see I’ve been putting some work into the Rubicon here lately. I’ll post some more updates on it later on.

That CJ8 is nice. Like the custom frame on the rear and roofing. One of these days I’ll own a Scrambler.

That is badass. What did that sell for? Hats the perfect wknd summer cruiser. Fam in the back..just chillin. Very cool!
 
Wow, that thing is friggin' awesome! It's like an LJ with even more room in the back. I love that it's got a rear seat and side seating, sort of like a Safari vehicle.

What did it sell for?
