Up for auction is an incredibly well maintained and CLEAN 1987 Jeep Grand Wagoneer. EVERYTHING works on this car and it is very original, yet has many practical upgrades making it easier to enjoy for the modern driver. The car has 171,000 miles on it and is an incredibly strong & smooth running car.
This car was purchased new from Colorado AMC JEEP, Inc. in Denver, Colorado by a couple in Littleton, CO. According to ownership records, it remained in Colorado (between Littleton, Aurora and Ft. Collins) until 2006. Judging by the extreme rust-free undercarriage and frame (see pictures) i was told that the previous owners used it only as a summer car for going to the "lake".

This is not a perfect car by any means, it has numerous touch-ups around the car, but it is a heck of a "10-footer" that gets tons of attention everywhere she goes. People can't believe how well preserved it is, especially when I tell them it's unrestored. The glass all around the car is in great condition - no scratches or cracks anywhere. Just 1-2 tiny chips a tad larger than a pin-head (don't obstruct visibility or anything, really have to look to find them)

There is 1 spot on the car that has significant rust in the lower/underside portion of the RH Quarter panel.
There are a few other spots on the car that have either bubbling/missing paint, but overall aren't terribly distracting from the beauty of the car.. again this is not a $35,000 Wagonmaster car and my reserve is set very reasonably. Also each front corner of each front fender have had larger areas of touch-up performed (prior to my ownership) as seen in pictures/video.

Major maintenance completed include the following:
At 129,000 Miles:
Transmission professionally rebuilt w/new torque converter ect.
New Power Steering Pump Installed

At 135,000 Miles:
Carburetor Rebuilt

2012-2014:
Air Conditioning system converted/upgraded to the R-134 system
Ignition system upgraded to the new TFI system (Starts great, better fuel efficiency, Horsepower & Torque)
With TFI upgrade came new distributor cap & rotor (larger style), & new MSD Premium wires
New ignition coil
New Spark Plugs
New Aluminum Radiator
Alternator overhauled by alternator specialist
2 window zippers replaced
Brake fluid flush
New right front brake caliper
New rear wheel brake cylinders
New Headliner professionally installed with new factory fabric (Extra material comes with car)
JVC Bluetooth Radio professionally installed with HandsFree mic over rearview mirror. Syncs with your iPhone or Android ect for handsfree talking/Pandora/Aux input. Works great! I do have the original cassette/radio to go with car.
New speakers installed (original covers still installed to maintain original look)

Records/receipts of regularly servicing transmission and transfer case which support why the car drives great for it's mileage.

Video: I will try to put up a video I made (forgive me for my lack of camera skills) or if it's not good quality, but should help illustrate the condition of car. If you don't see the video posted here, please message me and I will try to put it up on Youtube and send you a link.

EVERYTHING WORKS: All 5 power windows including tailgate window which works perfect by either the switch up front on dash, or the key operation in the tailgate.
4X4, Cruise Control, All gauges including gas gauge function perfectly. Bluetooth radio works perfect, Air Conditioning and heat works perfect.

This car starts incredibly easily even cold and goes right into the choke high-idle and once it is given 20 seconds or so to warm up, just tap the pedal and it goes into a normal idle and you're ready for non-stalling driving!
This car drives, stops and accelerates great as it should. The power steering works perfectly, the car stops great (no grinding or pulsing when applying brakes, and stays straight) and this car has POWER! it really accelerates well and i have driven other wagoneers, maybe it's the TFI upgrade, but even at 50MPH, when you add fuel it really accelerates great and smoothly. The transmission works and shifts perfectly as it should, no slipping or timing issues or late/early shifting.

Also- I do have the original AMC Jeep owner's booklet with even the original cassette tape intact and original owners manual.  If you have any questions, please email me and I will try to answer any questions as promptly as possible. Buyer is responsible for all shipping/delivery expenses but I can help arrange anything locally here for pick-up as needed. Also- You'll see in the pictures that the back right armrest is not attached to the door panel. I do have it, just needs to be re-attached. Good Luck Bidding!

Stellantis to offer electric versions of most of its European lineup by 2025

Thu, Apr 15 2021

Newly merged automaker conglomerate Stellantis will offer electric versions of almost all of its European lineup by 2025, it said on Thursday, as the auto industry faces regulatory pushes in Europe and China to accelerate the shift to zero-emission cars. Formed in January by the merger of France's PSA and Italian-American group Fiat Chrysler, Stellantis is the world’s fourth largest carmaker with 14 brands including Opel, Jeep, Ram and Maserati, and like its peers faces an investor community keen for a road map to an electric lineup to rival Tesla . Speaking during Stellantis' first annual shareholders meeting, Chief Executive Carlos Tavares said that in 2021 the carmaker expects sales of electrified vehicles — that is, both plug-in hybrids and fully electric models — to more than triple to over 400,000 units in 2021. By 2025, electrified vehicles should make up 38% of European sales, a huge jump from the 14% of sales it expects in 2021. Tavares said by 2030 electric models should make up 70% of European sales and 35% of U.S. sales. He said Stellantis will use four electric platforms for passenger vehicles across its 14-brand empire — small, medium and large sizes for cars, and "frame" for high-margin SUVs and pickup trucks. Sweden's Volvo said this month its lineup would be fully electric by 2030, and Ford Motor Co said in February its lineup in Europe would be too. BMW has said at least 50% of its car sales should be fully-electric models by 2030. Sales of electric and plug-in hybrid cars in the European Union almost trebled to over 1 million vehicles last year, accounting for more than 10% of overall sales.

FCA facing class-action lawsuit over Grand Cherokee shifters

Fri, Jun 24 2016

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is now facing a multi-million-dollar class-action lawsuit over the recalled shifter design in the 2014 and 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee, and the 2012 to 2014 Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300. Grand Cherokee owners, galvanized by Star Trek actor Anton Yelchin's fatal accident, filed the suit. According to The Wall Street Journal, the owners allege that FCA concealed the shifter's problems. On top of restitution, the class action suit is demanding a court order force FCA to issue a do-not-drive warning to owners of affected vehicles until it fixes the problem. FCA started distributing a software fix to dealers last week – according to the WSJ, the update will add more warnings about the shifter's position and will automatically kick the vehicle into park if the driver steps out. FCA's shifter problems have been bubbling under the surface as part of the company's recall issues. The US government dinged FCA with a $105 million fine last year for its recall practices (or lack thereof) last year, but things have exploded this week after Yelchin's death. The 27-year-old, best known for playing Ensign Pavel Chekov in the rebooted Star Trek film series, was killed after his 2015 Grand Cherokee rolled down his driveway and pinned the actor against a security gate. According to Jeep CEO Mike Manley, the company will dispatch engineers to analyze Yelchin's vehicle. Related Video:

Jeep's new Chip Away commercial has us hunting Al Pacino's back catalog

Tue, 19 Feb 2013

Chrysler has done a pretty good job as of late turning its television commercials into pep talks or rallying cries, but for its first ad for the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee, it turned to Al Pacino's inspirational speech from the movie Any Given Sunday. In the movie, Pacino's character talks about how football is a game of inches, but the commercial, titled Chip Away, focuses more on the attention to detail that Jeep has exhibited on its updated flagship SUV.
Centering around the newest Grand Cherokee model, the luxurious $47,995 Summit trim level, the commercial shows off some of the hand-stitched leathers and real metal and wood accents found inside the cabin. Check out the new 60-second spot by scrolling below.
