tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19372965739189018262012-02-16T16:49:37.295-08:00This 1982 Jeep CJ-8 Scrambler was built by the National Scrambler Owners Association. Raffle tickets were sold for $5.00 each with proceeds going to St. Jude Children's Hospital and The Blue Ribbon Coalition. My ticket was the one drawn. I've created this blog so that the wonderful folks that built it can keep an eye on it in it's travels. Thank you Scrambler Owners Association!cj8lvrhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00380785832386118056noreply@blogger.comBlogger41100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1937296573918901826.post-3230444296143939262009-09-11T07:21:00.001-07:002009-09-11T07:43:09.321-07:00<div style="text-align: left;">I haven't updated this in a little while but thought I'd just share a few quick pics from a ride last weekend. Summer is wrapping up and we're getting into my favorite wheeling time - Fall. Cooler weather, purdy foliage, can't beat it.<br /><br />More riding tomorrow around Tracy City, TN for the SFWDA 3rd Qtr. Meeting.<br /><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_8qa6Wf4jI10/SqpdXjNaKNI/AAAAAAAABJE/gz-XwoxiikY/s1600-h/KCove_RainRun_9_5_09_Shannons_010.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_8qa6Wf4jI10/SqpdXjNaKNI/AAAAAAAABJE/gz-XwoxiikY/s400/KCove_RainRun_9_5_09_Shannons_010.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5380215364017334482" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_8qa6Wf4jI10/SqpeDMPz4wI/AAAAAAAABJM/uaWTEynhyKU/s1600-h/KCove_RainRun_9_5_09_Shannons_102.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_8qa6Wf4jI10/SqpeDMPz4wI/AAAAAAAABJM/uaWTEynhyKU/s400/KCove_RainRun_9_5_09_Shannons_102.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5380216113767637762" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">I've done a few things to it since the last post. Added a full Bestop Supertop which I love. Added a back seat too for our son to ride in.

Won one at this summer's SOA Nationals in the Raffle and got the other later to match it.

I had them painted to match the texture of the half cab top and I think they came out quite well. Thank Mike Starkebaum for the Sliders and suggestions on the install. Look great and protect the Jeep now.<br /></div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_8qa6Wf4jI10/SqphJYV1iyI/AAAAAAAABJs/sCj548uOP68/s1600-h/SlidersOn.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_8qa6Wf4jI10/SqphJYV1iyI/AAAAAAAABJs/sCj548uOP68/s400/SlidersOn.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5380219518628236066" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">Closeup of finish:<br /></div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_8qa6Wf4jI10/Sqphcr0dKBI/AAAAAAAABJ0/FcJVztEcTmE/s1600-h/SlidersOnCloseup.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_8qa6Wf4jI10/Sqphcr0dKBI/AAAAAAAABJ0/FcJVztEcTmE/s400/SlidersOnCloseup.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5380219850274449426" border="0" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1937296573918901826-323044429614393926?l=charity8.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>cj8lvrhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00380785832386118056noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1937296573918901826.post-34266513571725404302008-11-11T21:22:00.000-08:002008-11-11T21:30:17.056-08:00Thanks to Mike Starkebaum with <a href="http://4x4land.com/index.html">4x4 Land</a> in Topeka, KS:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_8qa6Wf4jI10/SRppZ0fDK2I/AAAAAAAAAmU/r-7QO_B1-qU/s1600-h/RockSliders1.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_8qa6Wf4jI10/SRppZ0fDK2I/AAAAAAAAAmU/r-7QO_B1-qU/s400/RockSliders1.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267638606469737314" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_8qa6Wf4jI10/SRppZBNPJ1I/AAAAAAAAAmM/7793WnXo90I/s1600-h/RockSliders2.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_8qa6Wf4jI10/SRppZBNPJ1I/AAAAAAAAAmM/7793WnXo90I/s400/RockSliders2.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267638592704816978" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1937296573918901826-3426651357172540430?l=charity8.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>cj8lvrhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00380785832386118056noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1937296573918901826.post-6846385667729230712008-11-08T22:46:00.000-08:002008-11-08T23:06:38.171-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_8qa6Wf4jI10/SRaL8ueGYdI/AAAAAAAAAks/BVlVmcjwRgs/s1600-h/Charity8010.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_8qa6Wf4jI10/SRaL8ueGYdI/AAAAAAAAAks/BVlVmcjwRgs/s400/Charity8010.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5266550689639064018" border="0" /></a><br />I took this shot at the 2007 National Scramble at Windrock, TN.<br />These are many, but not all, of the good folks that had something to do with putting this Scrambler together.
