Up for auction is a very nice 1990 Jeep Grand Wagoneer.    There were only 6,449 Grand Wagoneers produced in the 1990 model year, which was the next to last year of production.   The 1989-1991 model years are considered the best due to improvements that Chrysler made after buying AMC/JEEP in 1987.   

I purchased the Jeep in the spring 2013 and had it shipped from Georgia to New Jersey.   I have invested a lot of money in it and was planning to enjoy it for a long time, but due to a new job and some financial issues, I have decided to sell it.  It has been a lot of fun driving it around town this summer and getting stopped all the time to ask questions about it, everyone loves this Jeep and always says "I haven't seen one of these in a long time!"    I am not a car "flipper" and will certainly not break even on what I have spent.    Here are the details:

  • 112,600 miles
  • Georgia vehicle, I purchased it in spring 2013, it has never seen a northern winter
  • NO RUST - rust is the common enemy of these vehicles
  • Sand Metallic Exterior with Sand interior
  • 360 2V V8, 3 speed automatic transmission
  • 4WD (works)
  • Air Cond (blows ice cold)
  • Power Windows (all work, including rear window using key or dash switch)
  • Power Locks (work)
  • Power Seats (work)
  • Power Steering and Brakes
  • Power mirrors (work)
  • Tilt Wheel
  • Leather Seats
  • Original thick carpet
  • Original floor mats (drivers side shows a lot of wear)
  • Factory ROL fog lights with black "Jeep" covers (very hard to find these now)
  • Haynes Service Manual
  • Original Owner's Manual
  • Cargo cover - not in great shape but works
  • 3 sets of keys
  • Jeep key chain

 Below is a list of the work that has been done on the Jeep in the last few months:

  • Replaced valve cover gaskets
  • Replaced intake manifold gaskets
  • Replaced Transfer Case Seal
  • Replaced Right Rear Axle Shaft Bearing Seal
  • Replaced Power Steering Gear Box
  • Replaced Power Steering Pump and hoses
  • Replaced fog lamp switch
  • Installed new fog lamp bulbs
  • Installed new catalytic convertor (passed tough NJ emissions test)
  • Replaced headlamp switch
  • Replaced right passenger door power door lock actuator
  • Installed new taillight lenses and bulbs
  • Installed new Radiator Cap
  • Oil and filter change
  • New air filter
  • Installed New thermostat
  • Tune-up
  • New Wire set, rotor, distributor cap
  • New wiper blades
  • New window wipes
  • New A/C compressor
  • New heater hose
  • New Pioneer AM/FM HD radio CD player (original radio had already been removed)
  • All four wheels professionally refinished
  • All new seat belts professionally installed by a top interior shop in Northern NJ, including rear shoulder belts purchased from Wagoneer World (I did this so could have a child seat in the back).  This was an option in 1990 but few purchased them!
  • New interior kick plates installed
  • New hood insulation pad

Based on service records, the following work was also done on the Jeep:

  • New Engine  - 110K miles (2006)
  • New Radiator - 110K miles (2006)
  • New fan shroud and gaskets - 110K miles (2006)

The last owner of the Jeep purchased it in 2006 and only drove it about 2,000 miles, as he owns several collector cars including other Grand Wagoneers.   The Jeep starts up well and runs nicely.   The cruise control, rear wiper, and compass/temperature gauge in the overhead console do not work.    Replaced valve cover gaskets and intake manifold gaskets due to oil leaks.     Still leaks a couple of drops, may be rear main seal, a common problem for these Jeeps.  Two mechanics have said it is not a big deal at this time.   The paint is good and still shines, but there are several scratches and nicks and chips, which can be seen in the pictures.   I would have it repainted if I were keeping it, I was quoted $1,800 for a 2-stage repaint by a top auto body shop in Northern NJ that has done quality for me in the past.  The original wood trim is in decent shape, as is the vinyl wood tape, but there are scrapes and scratches.  The bumpers are ok, have a lot of scratches, I would have them refinished if I was keeping the Jeep.  The bumper rubber is all there, has scratches and cuts in it. 

Vehicle is sold as is, where is, without warranty.   Pick up or shipping arrangements are the responsibility of the buyer.   I can hold the Jeep for a couple of weeks after payment, while shipping is arranged, if necessary.  If there is anything else you would like a picture of please email me through eBay.

You are welcome to inspect the vehicle before the auction ends.  It is located in Northern NJ about 1 hour from NYC. Any questions, please email me through eBay and I will be happy to answer.   

$500 non-refundable deposit due via PayPal within 24 hours of auction ending, remaining due via Bank Cashiers/Certified check within 7 days.

I have set a fair reserve based on what these Jeeps are selling for on eBay. I will not disclose the reserve and will not end the auction early.   The Jeep is NOT for sale locally, I intend to sell it on eBay if the reserve is met.   Thank you for looking.

All hail the Hellephant, Mopar's 1,000-horsepower crate engine

Wed, Oct 31 2018

It's shocking to say this, but the all-powerful Dodge Demon looks weak now that Mopar has unleashed the Hellephant. This crate motor makes 1,000 horsepower and 950 pound-feet of torque, and its name is a combination of the nickname for the old 426-cubic-inch Hemi V8 and, obviously, the Hellcat. This monster is a 426-cubic-inch version of the current third-generation Hemi V8 topped by a supercharger similar to what the Hellcat line packs. Everything is cranked up to — or perhaps, past — 11. The engine block is made of aluminum and weighs 100 pounds less than the equivalent iron block. All of the internals are forged. The stroke and bore have been increased. The supercharger produces 15 pounds of boost and displaces 3 liters; more than the 2.7-liter blower on the Demon and the 2.4-liter blower on the Hellcat. And as big and powerful as it is, it will still rev to 7,000 rpm. It's a thoroughly monstrous motor, but shockingly, it won't be that difficult to live with. For one thing, Mopar will offer a complete kit to get the engine up and running, including an engine computer, wiring harness and drive-by-wire throttle. It also runs on 93-octane pump gas. That's especially amazing considering the Demon engine "only" makes 840 horsepower, and that's on race gas with 100+ octane fuel. It also has us wondering what the Hellephant could make on racing fuel. The Mopar folks did say that there's room to add more power. Pricing wasn't announced for the Hellephant engine. The Hellcat crate engine retails at $19,350 directly from Mopar, so it's safe to assume that the Hellephant will go for more. The installation kit with the computer and harness will be an extra charge of likely over $2,000, based on the Hellcat kit. The engine and the kit will be available in the first quarter of 2019.

EPA posts 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited fuel economy

Sun, Nov 5 2017

When Jeep loosed a trio of 2018 Wrangler photos in October, Jeep cognoscenti parried over details like radio antenna placement and painted tailgate hinges, while every other viewer merely noted, "It's still a Wrangler." Now that the Environmental Protection Agency's listed fuel economy ratings for the 2018 Wrangler Unlimited with the 3.6-liter V6, Jeep savants will again parry over details. Every other viewer will merely note, "It's still got Wrangler gas mileage." According to the EPA, the current Wrangler Unlimited with the 3.6-liter V6 and six-speed manual clocks 16 miles per gallon in the city, 21 on the highway, and 18 combined. The 2018 version with the same six-speed manual comes in at 17/23/19. Switching transmissions, the current model with the five-speed automatic hooks up 16/20/18, the 2018 model with an eight-speed automatic does 18/23/20. Those numbers might not jump off the page, yet according to the EPA's cost calculator, you'll save $250 per year on gas with the eight-speed auto 2018 Wrangler Unlimited, $150 per year with the coming six-speed manual. The eight-speed auto option also exceeds Chrysler's prediction from 2014 of a nine-percent improvement in fuel economy over the five-speed auto. Now we wait for numbers on the dark horse four-cylinder, which we'd expect to best the sixer's numbers, unless the rumors are true and the four-pot really is packing every wild horse it can handle. In that case, we'll turn to the EcoDiesel for frugal kicks. If we don't find out beforehand, we can expect those goodies and more at the LA Auto Show in December.
