1989 Jeep Grand Wagoneer "Wagonmaster"

You're looking at a clean, well-documented 1989 Jeep Grand Wagoneer with low original mileage.  

With only two previous owners, this Jeep has spent nearly its entire life of 25 years in sunny Florida.  It was newly delivered to Royal Jeep-Eagle in Fern Park, FL in May 1989, then traded-in to Winter Park Motorcars in Winter Park, FL in 1999 with only 74,122 miles. 

From there, the vehicle was acquired by the world-famous Wagonmaster of Kerrville, TX and underwent an extensive renewal process (for details see the attached link - www.wagonmaster.com).  The vehicle was sold by Wagonmaster to a caring new owner in Tallahasse, FL in August 1999.  Since the original Wagonmaster restoration in 1999, the Jeep has been driven a little 8,000 miles.

The body has no dents and no visible rust.  The undercarriage and floorboards are clean and dry - no evidence of undercoating or attempts to cover anything up. The Jeep appears to have been repainted to its original Sand color at some point.  There is some minor paint fading on the roof and the fenders, and some oxidation on the chrome - all of which can be attributed to the Florida sun. These minor blemishes are un-noticeable from about 10 feet away, but are visible when up close as seen in the pictures.

The wood/vinyl paneling and trim are in great condition. If you follow these vehicles, you'll know that it is nearly impossible to find a Wagoneer without wood paneling that is faded or cracked from the sun, and unfortunatley, the original replacement woodpaneling is now discontinued by Jeep (and the aftermarket replacement vinyl is either too yellow or too dark). 

On the inside, the leather seats are all in good condition with no rips.  The rear cargo cover is intact and operates well (the cargo cover is usually missing other Wagoneers on the market).  All the power windows and locks work.

The engine is the original Jeep/AMC 360V8 coupled with its 3-speed "Torqueflight/727" transmission. The carburetor has also been recently rebuilt and runs smoothly.  The previous owner recently installed a new set of Cooper Trendsetter whitewall tires all around with less than 1,000 miles on them, and a new set of rear shocks. 

Along with the attached photos I am attaching an independent Carchex inspection report that I ordered prior to purchasing this vehicle (The Jeep's clean Carfax history report is also available for your review). I am also attaching the original new vehicle inspection and delivery sheet, as well as, the original odometer declaration card and starting instructions from Wagonmaster

The vehicle is sold in as-is condition and is being sold locally - so I reserve the right to end the bid at any time.  The Jeep is available for inspection locally and I'd be happy to answer any additional questions (best I can) or provide additional photos.

These Jeeps are becoming harder to find especially in great condition as this one.  In 2015, it is expected that Jeep will relauch the "Wagoneer" nameplate - so you can expect the value and demand for these Jeep to soar. 

You can buy this as an investment, as a solid base for restoring/customizing, use as your daily driver - you will get many waves and smiles along the way!

Bid with confidence - good luck!

2016 Jeep Wrangler to ditch solid axles to save weight?

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

Hey, Jeep fans. If you think the idea of a funky-looking, car-based Cherokee revival is offensive, have a listen to what might be in store for the next-gen Jeep Wrangler. Automotive News is reporting that as Jeep develops the 2016 Wrangler, weight reduction is a crucial target, and the Wrangler's rugged solid axles could be sacrificed in the name of better fuel economy.
We've already heard the next Wrangler will go on a serious diet using aluminum body panels and an air suspension system, so the idea of a four-wheel independent suspension setup for this OG SUV isn't all that surprising. Besides, it's not like an independent suspension would limit the Wrangler's off-road abilities - just check out the Hummer H1. In fact, it might be the aftermarket parts companies - not Wrangler enthusiasts - who would be most disappointed by such a drastic suspension change, as the article states that the Wrangler's solid axles and coil-link suspension make it the most popular SUV for customization.
There are probably still a couple years before we'll start hearing any concrete details about the 2016 Wrangler, at which time it will be interesting to see how stricter fuel economy and crash safety regulations have been balanced with traditional Wrangler cues like its removable doors and roof and folding windshield. Let us know in the comments below if a Wrangler sans solid axles is any less of a Wrangler.

The 2014 North American International Auto Show is right around the corner, which means it's high time we found out which cars and trucks would be finalists for the prestigious North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards.
The finalists - three in cars and three in three trucks/utilities - are dominated by American brands, with two-thirds of the finalists hailing from either General Motors or Chrysler (don't worry Ford, there's always next year), while outliers from Mazda and Acura can be found in each contest. Here now is the list of finalists for the big prizes:

eBay Find of the Day: Jeep Comanche Zombie Response Unit

Sat, 02 Feb 2013

We've seen some pretty fantastic apocalypse vehicles in our day. We've even owned one or two, but this particular Jeep Comanche tugs at our heart strings in all the right ways. Let's start with the basics: there's a stout 4.0-liter engine underhood hooked to a five-speed manual transmission, and while we wish this truck was four-wheel drive, the two-inch lift and oversize tires should help you overcome obstacles with enough momentum.
Details like handy shovels, Jerry cans and a brush guard inspired by the hardware on a CUCV help lend the truck a no-nonsense appeal, and the functional CB whip antenna means you can ask for backup when the undead hordes come your way. If you like what you see as much as we do, you can head over to eBay Motors to place a bid. The auction has inched up to $4,000 with just two days left on the clock.
