Offered for sale is an absolutely gorgeous 1990 Jeep Grand Wagoneer that has accrued a mere 39k miles during its extremely well-cared-for life. Finished in Baltic Blue Metallic over a Sand interior, everything is all original and in well-preserved condition, making this an exceptional opportunity to acquire an American icon and the final production run, “Best of the Breed” example. For the last decade this truck has seen only occasional use, always garaged and used as a seasonal beach cruiser during the summer months.  It has been serviced regularly throughout its life and recently received a full engine, suspension and transmission service.

The Wagoneer had one of the longest production runs in US history, spanning 28 years under license of three different manufacturers. Chrysler bought the rights to Jeep in 1987 and set about making a few minor changes to the Wagoneer, refining the exterior and addressing some known faults of the car, prompting new branding as the “Grand” Wagoneer. The 1987 plus model year Grand Wagoneers, received improved wood siding, modernized aluminum wheels and two stage base coat/clear coat paint finish. In 1989 the Grand Wagoneer received a few more upgrades to keep it competitive with its new competitor, the Grand Cherokee. These final three production years received a new A/C compressor, rear wiper assembly and an overhead console with compass and temperature gauges. The changes made to these 1989-1991 model year Grand Wagoneers and the resulting strong sales numbers further a legacy that solidified the Wagoneers place in automotive history.  These examples are known as “the best of the breed”, not because of Chrysler’s marketing, but their high production quality, classic styling and strong mechanicals have caused Jeep enthusiasts to bestow them with that honor.  

This Grand Wagoneer has stood the test of time, showing its age beautifully with paint and wood siding still in pristine condition, a straight, original and rust free body with consistent factory panel fits and gaps. The chrome has few imperfections, the glass and rubber are in excellent original condition and the original wheels are flawless and wrapped in tires with plenty of remaining tread. All of the power windows, wipers, A/C, and instrument cluster are still original and in perfect working order, as are the compass and temperature gauges. The truck has an excellent aftermarket Alpine Radio/CD player with an auxiliary plug in, however the original Jeep unit is also included in case its next owner wants to return the car to entirely original. The car has had weatherproof rubber mats that have kept the carpets pristine and the seats are equally clean, the leather crack free and the Cumberland cord inserts showing negligible signs of age. The fit and finish of the dash, and all the control knobs for the power windows, A/C system, and cruise control are solid.

After twenty-four years on the road this Grand Wagoneer is in exceptional working order.  The engine feels powerful and solid and the three speed Chrysler transmission’s shifting is smooth and on point.  The car drives straight and true, and brakes and handling are all as they should be. As mentioned above, the car underwent an extensive service with all fluids being replaced, any worn seals addressed and the suspension checked for leaks. The 4WD system was also serviced and had its fluids replaced. Consequently, the ride quality and performance are what one would expect from a well-maintained, 39k original mile car.

This is an excellent opportunity to acquire what is arguably the finest original example of a quickly appreciating icon. Finding them in this condition, especially unrestored, is becoming virtually impossible, driving values to levels that were never expected and yet completely understandable from a collector’s perspective. Whether this stellar example is to be used as a more frequent driver or as a fun alternative asset in a serious collection, if you’re in the market for an exceptional Grand Wagoneer, it deserves your serious consideration.

We want this car to go to great home and would be happy to further discuss it and answer any questions, so please feel free to email us or call us at 805-202-4557. You can also visit us online at GoodmanReed.

PLEASE NOTE: The truck's VIN was unavailable at the time of this posting and will be added on Monday, January 6th. We can assure you that it is an accident free example with a clear CARFAX report and title. Please call or email us with any additional questions.

We’ve always had an appreciation for classic cars and over the years have created an eclectic personal collection. We only buy cars that we’d personally be interested in owning and generally only sell them to make room for other acquisitions. That time has come for this Jeep (if the price is right, of course – this isn’t a fire sale). We try to give accurate descriptions of the cars we’re selling, but we’re enthusiasts, not experts, and we encourage and are happy to help facilitate personal or professional inspections. But please do so before bidding, as the alternative harms our ability to make sales to other interested parties who have done their proper due diligence before bidding. 

For U.S. buyers a 10% non-refundable deposit is required within 3 days of the auction’s end, the balance to be paid within 7 days of the auction’s end. Foreign buyers must pay in full within 7 business days of the auction’s end. Buyer is responsible for shipping, however we’d be more that happy to help with recommendations and arrangements. The car is listed locally and we reserve the right to end the auction at any time should it sell prior to auction’s end. Thanks for your interest.

FCA expands Jeep Cherokee recall to 68k more vehicles

Wed, May 13 2015

FCA is expanding its airbag software update for the 2014 and 2015 Jeep Cherokee to cover 68,593 more of the vehicles worldwide. This brings the total to 316,774 Cherokees. Of those, there are now 230,240 in the US, 28,110 in Canada, 6,367 in Mexico, and 52,057 outside of NAFTA. According to the automaker, after reviewing the potentially affected population, it discovered these additional Cherokees in need of the upgrade. The original campaign to repair these vehicles was announced in early February. Engineers found a small number of cases where dramatic changes to the angle of the vehicle that upset its balance caused the side-curtain and seat-mounted side airbags to deploy because they anticipated a rollover. This especially occurred when driving off-road. According to FCA, there're no additional reports of this happening, and the company isn't aware of any injuries or accidents. The fix is simply a software upgrade that recalibrates the airbags' deployment. Related Video: Statement: Restraint-System Software Upgrade May 12, 2015 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - FCA US LLC is expanding by an estimated 62,148 vehicles its recall of U.S.-market SUVs** to upgrade air-bag software. The action follows a routine review of the originally reported vehicle population by FCA US engineers. There have been no additional incidents and FCA US is unaware of any related injuries or accidents. The campaign will upgrade software that governs side-curtain and seat-mounted side air bags following a small number of inadvertent deployments – most of which occurred in harsh, off-road environments. They were prompted by maneuvers that dramatically changed the vehicles' angle of operation, relative to the ground, and the air-bag systems – sensing potential rollover conditions – automatically activated. The software upgrade will recalibrate the threshold for deployment and the vehicles will remain compliant with all applicable safety regulations. Affected are certain 2014 and 2015 Jeep Cherokees. The revised estimate for the U.S. totals 230,240. Revised estimates for other markets are as follows: 28,110 in Canada; 6,367 in Mexico and 52,057 outside the NAFTA region. The revised global total is 316,774 – a difference of 68,593. The Company will notify affected customers. Software will be available at that time. Customers with additional concerns or questions may call 1-800-853-1403. ** http://media.chrysler.com/newsrelease.do?id=16332&mid=431

Refreshed Chrysler 300 SRT won't be sold in NA

Mon, 20 Oct 2014

It looks like it might be time to bid farewell to the V8 rumble from the Chrysler 300 SRT - at least if you live in North America. The reported change comes as Fiat Chrysler Automobiles reshuffles its ranks with the Dodge brand, re-absorbing SRT and building its muscular reputation with the Challenger and Charger Hellcat models. Meanwhile, Chrysler is taking a more mainstream approach, and that likely means the end of overt high-performance models from the division for now.
According to Automotive News, the 300 SRT will be discontinued in the US for 2015, but it won't be totally dead. Some right-hand drive markets will still get the brawny V8 sedan next year, a distinction that goes a long way toward explaining some spy shots we've seen recently.
The 300 SRT's North American demise probably shouldn't come as a total shock. In FCA's five-year plan, it says that the 300 is destined for a refresh to be unveiled later this year, presumably at the upcoming Los Angeles Auto Show. There's no mention of the SRT model in the document, though, which seems to signal its end.
