1987 Jeep Grand Wagoneer - Ca Car Now In Mw (storage) on 2040-cars
Chicago, Illinois, United States
Why am I selling? Bought it to tow an Airstream that I've since sold. I have two other JGW's, and want to buy more, so need to make room. This Jeep spent its entire life in California, before I shipped it back to the Midwest to restore. Body and Paint: This original Jeep retains its original body and paint from the factory. All of the panels are rust free because of its SoCal ownership history. The paint is amazing for its age and still holds a very high shine and gloss. There isn't any evidence of previous paint touch up anywhere on the vehicle. The vinyl and trim were replaced, I used 1" trim. The door jambs and sills even are in great condition are free of any wear marks. The driver’s door jamb still retains the factory vehicle info decal with vin number and other vehicle information. Trim and Chrome: The exterior trim and chrome are all intact and original to the vehicle. All trim holds a nice high quality chrome shine and free of any pitting. Engine and Transmission: The engine is the original 360 V-8 that the Jeep was built with and holds good oil pressure and runs nice and cool. The engine compartment is all original with factory emission tag, data tag and factory markings still in place. The transmission operates flawlessly and shifts nice and crisp as it should. The 4x4 switch operates properly as well as the 4x4 low. This GW runs nice and smooth with a quiet ride. The exhaust system is in great condition also and does not need any work. I installed a Holly fuel pump to overcome the chronic Jeeps have. I had all fluids (radiator, oil, transfer case, differential) replaced. I installed an heavy duty radiator and trailer hitch. Brakes were rebuilt last year. Interior: The leather seats would pass for a vehicle with 80,000 miles. I put a new headliner in a year ago. The carpet is the original deep shag and is in great condition with a few small wear areas. The door panels do not have any marks on them and fit like they did day one. The dash, gauges, steering wheel, horn button, door handles, wood trim accents and balance of the interior are all in great original condition and have never been altered in any way. Stereo is a Sony AM/FM with CD player. I do have the original radio in a box that the Jeep was delivered with and that will go to the next owner. Glass and Mirrors: From what I have observed the glass is all original. There aren’t any chips or stars in the windshield. The side glass has had a minor tint applied because of its southern ownership history and I believe that aided in preserving the interior from sun fade and heat. The rear power glass window in the tailgate operates correctly from either the dash mounted button or key function. This Jeep has the power mirror option for both drivers side and passenger side and they operated smooth and quiet. Wheels and Tires: All of the wheels are original and are in very nice condition. They have the correct center caps and lug nuts. The tires are high quality Hankook tires have <15K on them. Terms of Sale: I am selling the Jeep “as is” because vehicles of this age are. If you have the opportunity to see and drive this GW before the auction period expires, then I invite you to do so to truly appreciate the originality and excellent condition of this vehicle. I have offered a buy it now option to end the auction early and buy the Jeep. I have compared my buy it now price with comparable GW’s in this condition and feel it is very well priced. |

Car Club USA: Louisiana Mudfest
Tue, Jun 16 2015There's nothing quite like mudding. Big tires, huge power, and crazy-wild gearheads that like to throw down on a mud pit almost as much as a thirty rack of Coors. In the latest, and some might argue greatest yet episode of Car Club USA, we head to Louisiana to throw some dirt at Mudfest. As Louisiana's one and only Mouth of the South puts it, "If you don't mud ride... go to Texas I guess." Joining The Mouth and friendly rivals The Most Hated Mud Sluts, we dive in. Beyond the obvious V8 blasting and tractor-tire spinning, those who know best describe Mudfest as, "Good cooking, good friends, good fun, and a lot of partying." It's a motorsport spectacle unlike any you're likely to find up North or out West, though no less impressive to behold. Follow along with the fun, the impromptu drag racing, the trash talking, and the mechanical madness. And find out why, at Mudfest, "if we don't tear it up, we ain't done it right." Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures. From Main Street cruises to off-road trails, catch all the latest car club activity on Autoblog. Chevrolet Ford Jeep RAM Truck Off-Road Vehicles Car Club USA Videos autoblog black

Jeep CEO a fan of pickup redux
Tue, Mar 10 2015The idea of a Jeep pickup is a hardly a new concept. After all, putting a bed on the company's rugged off-roaders goes back to the '40s, not to mention the more recent Cherokee-based Comanche. There's a very slim chance that a truck could return to the lineup down the line if brand CEO Mike Manley gets his wish. "I remain a big fan of a Jeep pickup. I think we have history that says it belongs in our portfolio," Manley said to The Detroit News. However, there's no need to get any hopes up soon, because a truck doesn't get any mention in the brand's five-year plan. That puts the earliest possible introduction around 2019. Even Manley is tempering expectations. "At this moment and time, I have higher priorities. That doesn't mean to say that we don't work on it, we're not looking at it," he said to The Detroit News. The most likely candidate to support a future Jeep truck is the next-gen Wrangler, according to The News. The rest of FCA's pickups and SUVs are running at capacity, which makes slipping in another variant difficult. However, the future Wrangler is heavily rumored to get an expanded production facility in Toledo, OH, which could make things possible. Anonymous FCA insiders confirmed to Autoblog that the next-gen Wrangler would be offered with a 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 and eight-speed automatic. It's also reportedly using solid axles at the front and rear, a fixed windshield and an aluminum body. That could make for a very fun and practical off-roader. If reading all of this speculation gives you a twinge of deja vu, it should. After the Jeep Gladiator concept (pictured above), there were years of speculation about the brand bringing the pickup back. Even then the plan was for a compact truck to tackle that hole in the segment. It was even believed that the project had a green light for production seemingly with Sergio Marchionne's blessing. Then things were pushed back, and last year, the idea was officially quashed. Related Video:
