 HISTORY:  I  wanted this '89 Jeep Grand Wagoneer in the rare old classic style when I first saw it in 2000. It's unusual in that it has the woodgrain paneling delete option.  I was living in Seattle at the time and had fallen in love with these vehicles since I regularly drive in winter over the mountain passes and across country often pulling a trailer.  My renter, a certified Swedish machinist with good mechanical skills, was restoring my collection of Jeep GW's.  This came to us for full restoration at 135,000 miles by the grandson of the original owner when he saw the work being done on my other GW's.  After a full restoration, and  5 years, the grandson sold it back to me. Simply put, I have to start getting rid of my car collection since I'm not Jay Leno and must concentrate on restoration of my absolute "keepers"  ('47 Cadillac convertible, '69 Cuda 340 "S", etc). Please see my other eBay listings.  

CONDITION:   Everything that usually goes wrong with age was rebuilt during the restoration, including doors, tailgate, stereo system, transmission, brakes, motor, etc.    Door hinges are tight, tailgate works like it should , Carpet and seat are in excellent condition.  Brakes, tranny, engine, transfer case work well.  No drivetrain leaks have been observed.  The effective "age" of this GW is 50K miles.  I redid the brakes with DOT 5 fluid, double roller timing chain was used on engine, carb rebuilt, etc.  When I took it over in 2005, I repainted it in the original dark metallic anthracite gray for $3500. I also  I've driven it about 6,000 miles and it has been stored inside since then.

Deficiencies:  I'm driving the Jeep back to Alabama in one week.  There I have trusted mechanics and craftsmen.  I will repair all known deficiencies which at this time include replacement of the headliner, opening the clogged sunroof drains, updating the A/C with R134A and doing a more professional installation of the electronic brake control unit.   There is a streak in the windshield where the wiper arm scrubbed.  All other problems, if any found, will be noted and discussed with inquiring buyers.  The tires should probably be replaced simply because of age.

DELIVERY:  I can drive the Jeep anywhere for delivery including Canada. I've sold to Europe before. Please allow adequate time for the repairs noted above to be made by  craftsmen/mechanics in Alabama.

PAYMENT:  A deposit  of $3,500 USD is due within 5 days of auction end unless other arrangement is made.  Balance is due at time of delivery/pick up.  

Please call me at the phone number below to discuss delivery schedule and charges or any other questions you may have.

Jeep lays out 5-year plan, including rebirth of Grand Wagoneer and new C-segment offering

Tue, 06 May 2014

Fiat Chrysler CEO Sergio Machionne presented a five-year plan for the company brands this morning, with Jeep first up on a long day of presentation. Jeep's head honcho Michael Manley wasted no time in laying out what the foreseeable future will look like for what he calls the "lead global brand" of the company.
Big goals for the next half-decade will include expanding the lineup from five nameplates built in one country, to six nameplates build in six countries. That expansion of models will include both a three-row competitor, and, of course, a small vehicle to slot below Cherokee. The company is also seeking to add a whopping 1,300 dealers over the next few years, to sell all this new metal, and has an aggressive goal of doubling Jeep sales by the time 2018 rolls around.
As expected, that first salvo from the off-road brand will be the debut of the much ballyhooed Renegade small crossover in the third quarter of this year. Jeep has already designated that Renegade will get refreshed for the 2017 model year, as well.

Project Trail Force Jeep Wrangler goes to SEMA, then to a lucky winner

Wed, Jul 1 2015

Extreme Terrain is an aftermarket parts company focused on the Jeep Wrangler. Partly just because it's a really cool thing to do, and probably having something to do with Jeep's upcoming 75th anniversary, Extreme Terrain found some dance partners to help work up a special 2015 Wrangler Rubicon that it will show off at the Bantam Jeep Heritage Festival in Butler, PA, then at SEMA in November, where it will be given away. Extreme worked with Barricade Off-Road and Kevin Tetz from the Spike show Trucks! to build the Wrangler it calls Project Trail Force. There is more than $24,000 worth of aftermarket gear on it, starting with the Ripp centrifugal supercharger that pumps an additional 140 horsepower into the 3.6-liter V6. It's got a 3.5-inch lift kit from Rock Krawler, Dana 44 axles strung between 37-inch BFG tires, Barricade bumpers, a 9,500-pound winch, fender flares, rock sliders, a 50-inch LED light bar above the windshield, LED spotlights on the A-pillars, and seven-inch KC Hilites headlights. Rugged Ridge worked over the inside with upgrades like all-terrain floor and cargo liners, plus seat covers, and a new navigation system with a back-up camera. If you want to win it, you can enter the contest at Extreme Terrain once every week until Oct. 23. The winner gets flown to SEMA to have Kevin Tetz hand the keys over. If you just want to see it, you can head to PA for that heritage festival. The Project Trail Force will also lead a Jeep parade that could set a Guinness World Record. The press release below has a lot more info on the build. Good luck. EXTREMETERRAIN AND BARRICADE OFF-ROAD TO UNVEIL THEIR FULLY-BUILT 2015 JEEP WRANGLER AT BANTAM JEEP FESTIVAL ExtremeTerrain.com and Barricade Off-Road teamed up to build a $73,000+ 2015 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon to be given away to a lucky winner at the 2015 SEMA Show • Giveaway Link: http://www.extremeterrain.com/jeep-wrangler-project-trailforce-giveaway.html • Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jsO6fxVq6kI MALVERN, Pa. (June 12, 2015) – ExtremeTerrain, a leader in providing aftermarket Jeep Wrangler parts, along with rugged, enthusiast-driven Jeep Wrangler aftermarket armor and accessories manufacturer Barricade Off-Road, today unveiled a fully-built 2015 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon dubbed Project Trail Force at the Bantam Jeep Heritage Festival in Butler, PA.

SUV lifts you up where you belong and leapfrogs traffic jams

Tue, Mar 21 2017

So, you're at a dead stop, stuck in traffic, when it pulls up behind you. It appears to be a garden-variety Jeep Grand Cherokee. That is, until its undercarriage lifts the Jeep 9 feet into the air, and the whole rig straddles you and the cars ahead of you in a bid for open road. The car is called the Hum Rider, and no, you can't buy one at the Jeep store. It's a one-off publicity stunt intended to promote Verizon Telematic's Hum platform, which plugs into a car's OBD port and for $10 a month provides vehicle diagnostics, roadside assistance, location tracking, and speed and geo-fencing alerts. (Not sure if Hum tracks vertical leaps.) Verizon enlisted viral marketing agency Thinkmodo to promote the Hum, and this idea was head and shoulders above the rest. "We saw this one [and said], 'Wow, that is crazy,' said Jay Jaffin, Verizon's VP of marketing. "We loved the idea." Thinkmodo co-founder James Percelay told Mashable that they wanted to represent the upgrade Hum brings to cars. So the car goes up. Get it? Here's the star of this story: Hum Rider's designer, Scott Beverly, has done visual effects for Hollywood in The Dark Knight, Inception and Interstellar. He works for A2Zf, a Lancaster, Calif., design and engineering firm that keeps the world filled with Batmobiles, Red Bull Can Cars and beautifully designed VWs and Audis. A2Zf has also worked with NASA on X-planes and with Northrup on the B2 bomber, so compared to those projects, a car-straddling car is hardly a stretch. So what does it take to make a car do this? How about: Over 300 feet of hydraulic lines that operate everything - the lift mechanism, steering, braking and power to the drivetrain. A gas-powered Honda generator under the hood that powers hydraulic pumps pushing out 900 pounds of pressure. A lot of mechanical structure. Hum Rider weighs 8,500 pounds, almost double a standard Grand Cherokee. Heavy-duty truck tires to support all that weight. Four undercarriage cameras that allow the driver to see and clear what's beneath him. What did it cost? They're not saying. What would it be worth, the next time you're stuck in traffic? Priceless.
