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

Very Good Metallic Merlot Exterior Paint

*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!

An inside look at Mopar's SEMA fleet

Fri, 31 Oct 2014

Mopar is heading to the SEMA show in Las Vegas with a fleet of customized vehicles that appeal to enthusiasts of all stripes. There's a Dodge Viper ACR concept that follows in the lineage of the supercar's great road racing past, and a custom Ram ProMaster that might just be the ultimate outdoor party machine.
We got an inside look at Mopar's cars that will be on display at the show, which also include a Dodge Challenger T/A concept, two crazy Jeeps and a Ram 2500 Outdoorsman that could change the way you camp. While these are some of our favorites, Mopar is bringing plenty to SEMA, so let us know your top choices in the comments section.

Ford leads top searched-for car brands on Google in 2014

Mon, Dec 22 2014

With less than two weeks until 2014 takes its final bow, anyone and everyone is looking back on the past 50 or so weeks to see how they stacked up. For search giant Google, that means its time to check out its annual Trends report. Besides the most popular search term (the late, great Robin Williams), the most searched for gadget (the iPhone 6) and most searched for disease symptoms (quite worryingly, Ebola took the crown here), we have the most searched for automaker. With the long-awaited sixth-generation of one of America's most iconic vehicles, the Mustang, and a ground-breaking update for the US market's perennial best seller, the F-Series, it should come as no surprise at all that Ford was Google's most searched for automaker in 2014. Jeep captured second place, while Dodge, took third. We suspect introducing a pair of cars with 707 horsepower had something to do with that bronze medal... Scroll down to see the rest of this year's most searched for automakers, and then head into Comments and let us know if you're surprised by any of these. This content is hosted by a third party.

Jeep pickup confirmed, will be built in Toledo

Tue, Jan 12 2016

Finally. In 2011 Jeep CEO Mike Manley said, "It is too late in Wrangler's product cycle to add a pickup. The 2015 or 2016 time frame makes more sense," when the next-generation Wrangler is due. A year later, Manley told an Australian outlet that a decision on a Jeep with a bed would come "pretty soon." Now, The Detroit News reports that the decision has been made, and it's a "Yes."A Wrangler-based truck is expected to arrive in 2017, sometime after the launch of the next Wrangler. And it'll be built in Toledo next to its sibling. Those desperate for a carry-all Wrangler have been able to buy Mopar's JK8 conversion kit for the past four years. Frankly, even though the Jeep Gladiator concept (pictured) is now 11 years old and the JT concept is nine years old, we think either one of them could roll off the line in a year and be welcomed with hosannas. This year's New York Auto Show will also be the site of the reveal of the compact SUV that will slot in between the Renegade and the Cherokee, built on the Renegade/Fiat 500X platform and replacing both the Compass and Patriot. Derided by many, in the US the two aging CUVs still sell terrifically well - they both hit records here last year. One of them will live on in name, the new SUV to be called either Compass or Patriot; the former name is bigger in international markets, the latter name gets more recognition here. That show is when we'll also get Fiat Chrysler's updated five-year plan that will take us through the presumed end of CEO Sergio Marchionne's tenure at FCA.
