Come on Ralph, bring it to market. And with a nice little diesel. With the Dana 60 rear axle, I bet I could tow my boat with ease.

Once again, Capt Skup, you've posted an thread that's going to stir alot of interest. Great link.

As for the Jeep itself, I'd be interested. Especially if it could possible hold a plow and have a "hard" top or enclosed cab area for heat.

I'd love to see one in person.

Happy trails!!

When the CJ-8 "Scrambler" came out in the early 80's, I did not buy one. Instead I bought a CJ-7 with the 258ci I-6 and 5-speed. To this day, I regret not getting the Scrambler, I could have added a rear bench and soon after introduction, aftermarket came out with a full length soft top. Kind of like the first small SUV. This new Jeep would fill that hollow feeling I have, and the bonus torquey diesel would be icing on the cake.
