You are bidding on what may be the very nicest Grand Wagoneer available!

***I have just learned through Ebay's VIN check that this vehicle shows a Salvage branding on the title at some point.  The GA title I received was clear and the Michigan Title I hold is CLEAR (see the pic).  I believe in full disclosure and am now sadly re-listing with a Salvage title.  Undeserving of such a fine example.  However, I stand by the description below and still hold that you will not find a nicer Wagoneer.

Shipping is Free, up to $700, if you purchase it for my very reasonable "buy it now" price

*As a perfectionist and an engineer, I work hard to only acquire the best vehicles for my personal use and then continue to work hard to maintain their level of perfection.  This Wagoneer is no different.  I believe in a full disclosure approach to selling such that you can be the most comfortable in your remote purchase.  See the many photos.  Check out the videos where I point out all of the flaws that are known to me.  No Disappointments!

Body:
The body is in great condition.  It has been repainted the original color at some point.  There is no rust.  There is absolutely no sign of damage or accidents that I can find or am aware of.  With the exception of the tailgate, all the panels and glass look to be original. See the video where I walk around the body and point out the known flaws. Here's the link to the Video: http://youtu.be/iWv_JL7fqE0

Interior:
The interior is in amazing condition!  Unbelievable for a vehicle that is 25 years old. The Oxblood leather is near perfect. The door panels are flawless.  Very original. It is clear that this wagoneer has always lived a pampered life.  The passenger power windows are slow but work best from their respective door switched.  See the video where I show a few areas for improvement.

Powertrain:
I've gone through the original AMC 360 V8 and have replaced everything wearable: Water pump, oil pump(with mid-plate), alternator, bearings, rings, gaskets, seals, cam, upgrade to electric fuel pump, etc, etc. I've upgraded the cooling system with a custom aluminum radiator and a large oil-cooler. 
I've replaced all of the emission controls including the cat.  It has a brand new smog pump that is installed but not hooked up.  It has not passed California smog, but I see no reason that it won't be able to. 
The 4wd works perfectly.  
I've re-leveled the suspension to sit more appropriately for a classic SUV.  There are new shock absorbers
*Flaw: Despite all my careful efforts, the motor occasionally drips oil. Not a puddle, just 1 or 2 drips while parked.   I haven't had time to chase it down, but It seems to be coming from the back of a valve cover.  Not a big deal for most, but disappointing for me. My apologies.  Additionally, it shall be known that while the tires have a lot of tread left roll smoothly and quietly, they are more than 10yrs old, and should be replaced.


History:
I found this Jeep in Georgia and bought it for summer use only to pull the family boat back in Michigan.  The seller I bought it from told me that it has always belong to people in his neighborhood.  After moving to California, realizing that I no longer use it, I brought it out here to get it ready to sale. The Michigan title is CLEAR and in hand - see the pic. 

All the original pieces from which I've upgraded come with Jeep: Original radiator, front leafs, and valve covers, etc.  Also included is a nice cover and a service manual.

I have more pictures of the underside of the doors, and pictures of each panel if you'd like to see more.

The winner of the this auction is going to love this Wagoneer!

Jeep to stop using bad Takata airbag inflators next week

Tue, Jun 21 2016

FCA is gradually ceasing to produce vehicles equipped with Takata airbag inflaters found to be inherently faulty. These airbags, which lack a certain drying agent, have been linked with dangerous premature ruptures. According to FCA, the only vehicle still in production with the named airbag is the 2016 Jeep Wrangler, and in this case they are passenger-side airbags. Fiat Chrysler says it isn't aware of any incidents involving these air bag inflaters in Jeeps, but amidst concerns that vehicles with failure-prone airbags are still being marketed to customers, North American-market 2016 Wranglers will cease to be equipped with them starting next week. As per FCA's statement, global production is expected to end by mid-September. In addition to Toledo, Ohio, the Wrangler is produced in Egypt. FCA isn't going to sell the cars with the deemed-faulty airbags without disclosing the fact to the customers: anyone buying a 2016 Wrangler will be notified that the vehicle will most likely be subject to a recall in the future, even if there is not currently a recall announced for them. NHTSA has specified a "Coordinated Remedy Program" recall schedule for the coming years, and the airbag inflaters will degrade over a time frame of several years, when subjected to a humid environment.

Jeep teases pair of Moab concepts early

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

With the 47th annual Moab Easter Jeep Safari coming up at the end of this month, Jeep is preparing to roll out six new off-road-ready concept vehicles. The first two being teased are the Jeep Grand Cherokee "Trailhawk II" concept and the Jeep Wrangler "Slim," and while we have no information on either, we at least get an idea of what they'll look like.
We can't tell why this Wrangler is called Slim, but it has a nice black-and-red paint scheme with a serious off-roading front bumper and five-spoke beadlock wheels. There's even less we can figure out about the Grand Cherokee's Trailhawk II concept except that it appears to be painted up in the same Crusher Orange paint job as the recently introduced SRT Viper TA. We'll likely more of these as well as peeks at the other Moab concepts as we get closet to this year's Moab Easter Jeep Safari, which will be held March 23 through 31.
