1986 Jeep Grand Wagoneer! Awesome Shape! on 2040-cars
Bowling Green, Kentucky, United States
|
I am third owner of this Wagoneer. The first owner had it for about a year and sold it to a gentleman in California who owned it for many years. I bought it from him when he became too ill to to drive it. Since owning it, I had it professionally enhanced with removal of the California restrictive equipment, and general engine rebuild with Quick-fuel tech 4bl carb and Edelbrock top end and air cleaner, Headman ceramic lined headers, new exhaust, aluminum radiator,, electric fan, aluminum washer reservoirs, A/C conversion, and ceramic brakes. I had the front and rear bumpers removed and chromed along with the front grill. The radio has been changed out to an Alpine system with i-pod connectivity and Blue-tooth for telephone. I have installed a remote keyless entry. Power windows and doors all work, the header is new. Basically this is an awesome ride! Again, all work has been professionally done here in Bowling Green (Corvette City) where mechanics take their work seriously. The original speedometer went out around 83k and replaced. I have it with me. The only problem that I have with her is that when we installed the remote keyless entry, evidently we created a parasitic drain on the battery. This is not a problem if you drive it often, but if you don't, I installed a toggle switch under the dash to cut off the circuit. Take a look at "Buttercup" she's a good ride and a lot of fun. I am building a new home and I simply do not have the space to keep her in new location. Otherwise, she has been kept in a climate controlled garage and has no rust.

Chrysler taking big risk snubbing NHTSA
Wed, 05 Jun 2013Maker Insists Feds Overstate Risk Of Fires With Grand Cherokee, Liberty Models
It's not often that recall stories make it above the fold, in that old newspaper parlance, but when one shows up as the lead story on the network evening news programs, you know it's something big.
And so it is with Chrysler snubbing its nose at a request by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to recall 2.7 million Jeeps the feds insist are at risk of potentially catastrophic fuel tank fires in a rear-end collision.
Happy 50th birthday, Jeep Wagoneer
Thu, 02 May 2013
The Wagoneer got the SUV on the radar of buyers looking for something capable, comfortable and rugged.
The Jeep Wagoneer was introduced 50 years ago, and it's that vehicle we have to thank for the herds of excellent crossovers and SUVs that make up our current automotive landscape. On a personal level, I have always loved the full-size Jeeps and their crisp Brooks Stevens styling, which aged well over their long tenure on the market. The SJs, as they're known among enthusiasts, were the Wagoneer and its two-door counterpart, the original Cherokee. The Wagoneers had become true luxury vehicles by the end of their run, which stretched form late 1962 as a '63 model all the way to 1991, when they were offered exclusively under the Grand Wagoneer nameplate.
