Good morning. @Westport17, yes- all gauges function, radio works, as well as wipers and horn. I do not have photos with the top off. I’ll be checking in periodically to answer all questions. 2 Items I didn’t mention- I installed a push start button and lined the interior and bed with bed liner spray. Looks great and very durable.
Any photos with the top off? Do all the gauges, wipers, horn, radio work? Thanks!
Good morning fellow Jeep enthusiasts. This is truly a fine example of a rare Scrambler. It has the upgrades that makes it stand out and a reliable runner. Sniper fuel Injection system, aluminum radiator, winch with remote, New Bestop seats and Floor Mats, body stripped, primed, with 3 coats of base coat, 3 coats of clear- wet sanded, and polished. It shifts with ease as clutch and transmission has been rebuilt. Power steering is a big plus. Capable off-road, drives true and straight at 75 on the freeway. Hopefully the new owner will appreciate it as I have.
