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.

EU finds Jeep Grand Cherokee and Suzuki Vitara break emissions rules

Thu, Jan 23 2020

AMSTERDAM — Fiat Chrysler's Jeep Grand Cherokee and Suzuki's Vitara diesel models both break emissions rules and must be fixed or face a ban on sales across Europe, the Dutch road authority ruled on Thursday. The RDW authority, acting as the reference regulator for across the European Union, said Jeep had developed a software fix and that the authority had ordered the company to recall the model across Europe to roll it out. It added Suzuki had yet to find a credible solution for the Vitara. "Suzuki must come with adequate improvement measures or the RDW will begin the process of revoking its European type approval," the RDW said in a statement, adding it had also started the process of revoking approval for the Jeep Grand Cherokee as a "precautionary measure." Regulators across the world have been testing diesel models since Volkswagen admitted in 2015 that it used illegal software to cheat U.S. emissions tests. The RDW said it had found both the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Vitara had used "prohibited emissions strategies" that led them to emit higher levels of harmful nitrogen oxide (NOx) on the road than under testing conditions. Dutch State Secretary for Infrastructure, Stientje van Veldhoven, said in a letter to parliament she would inform prosecutors of the RDW's findings. Fiat Chrysler and Suzuki could not immediately be reached for comment. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

FCA profits surge in second quarter

Fri, Jul 31 2015

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles gave the cash register a beating in the second quarter, improving its net profit to 333 million euros ($364M US), which is a 263-percent jump over its reported Q1 profit of 92 million euros ($108M US). At the same time, FCA improved its global profit margin to 7.7 percent. Compared year-over-year, in Q2 2014 FCA reported net profit of 197 million euros making this year's Q2 a 69-percent increase, and profit margins a year ago were 4.9 percent. The two big factors for this increase are strong NAFTA sales and Jeep. In the US alone, Jeep sold 222,940 units in Q2 this year, a jump of almost 20 percent over the same period last year. Revenue in the NAFTA region totaled $18.8 billion, adjusted earnings before interest and taxes were $1.45 billion, both of those numbers more than doubling compared to 2014. The vastly better numbers come on marginally more global sales, 1,181,000 units sold in Q2 2014, 1,193,000 units sold in the same span this year. In the US, FCA began charging dealers one-percent more for vehicles to up the margins, a move that helped boost its US margin from 4.1 percent a year ago to 5.8 percent the first half of this year. The company is holding steady on its guidance of global deliveries at 4.8 million and its net profit guidance at $1.1 to $1.3 billion. It has increased its adjusted outlook for the year to $120.5 billion in revenue, and EBIT to "over $4.93 billion."
