1988 Grand Wagoneer


Unfortunately, a long distance move is forcing me to sell "Woodrow", my much loved Grand Wagoneer.  I've just upgraded the distributor and with that project came a lot of other new pieces:
Upgraded to HEI electronic ignition
New HEI distributor
New timing cover
New timing chain
New 100 amp alternator
New camshaft gear
New distributor gear
New water pump
New belts
New hoses
New oil pump

In the last 2 years it has received new: brake lines, calipers, wheel cylinders, pads, shoes, tie rods, sway bar bushings and links.
The steering box has a slight leak.  I have and new rebuild kit for it that is included.
The body and paint are in good shape.  It has been repainted.
The floors are all solid.  There is some bubbling starting along the bottom of the drivers side rocker panel.  The metal is solid, but the paint is bubbling.  There is also a nickel sized bubble on the tailgate just below the V8 badge.
It has a brand new JVC USB/Bluetooth radio.  I love it, but it does not play cd's.  I listen to it through my iphone.  It you prefer a CD player I have a Blauplunkt unit I will swap with.
New Infinity 6.5" speakers in the doors and Pioneer 6x9's in the rear.
The interior is great with the exception of the rear carpet, which is deteriorated and in bad shape.  I have the cargo liner back there so I didn't bother replacing it.
All of the power windows and locks work great.  The rear window functions well from both the drivers switch and the rear key.
The only two things that don't currently work are the A/C and the cruise control.  I have not yet looked into repairing them.
I have a nice extra rear window with a new track that is included.  The one that is on right now is a bit scratched.
It does have a trailer hitch with working round 6 light plug.  
The truck runs and drives great.  I drive it up to Northern Michigan (4 hour drive) with no hesitation.

Ask all the question you like.  Tests drives are welcome and encouraged!

Zombie cars: A dozen discontinued vehicles people still buy new

Thu, Jan 6 2022

Car models come and go, but as revealed by monthly sales data, once a car is discontinued, it doesn't just disappear instantly. And in the case of some models, vanishing into obscurity can be a slow, tedious process. That's the case with the 12 cars we have here. All of them have been discontinued, but car companies keep racking up "new" sales with them. There are actually more discontinued cars that are still registering new sales than what we decided to include here. We kept this list to the oldest or otherwise most interesting vehicles still being sold as new, including a supercar. We'll run the list in alphabetical order, starting with *drumroll* ... BMW 6 Series: 55 total sales BMW quietly removed the 6 Series from the U.S. market during the 2019 model year. It had been available in three configurations, a hardtop coupe, a convertible and a sleek four-door coupe-like shape.   BMW i8: 18 total sales We've always had a soft spot for the BMW i8, despite the fact that it never quite fit into a particular category. It was sporty, but nowhere near as fast as similarly-priced competitors. It looked very high-tech and boasted a unique carbon fiber chassis design and a plug-in hybrid powertrain, but wasn't really designed for maximum efficiency or maximum performance. Still, the in-betweener was very cool to look at and drive, and 18 buyers took one home over the course of 2021.   Chevy Impala: 750 total sales The Impala represented classic American tastes at a time when American tastes were shifting away from soft-riding sedans with big interior room and trunk space and into higher-riding crossovers. A total of 750 sales were inked last year.   Chrysler 200: 15 total sales The Chrysler 200 was actually a pretty nice sedan, with good looks and decent driving dynamics let down by a lack of roominess, particularly in the back seat. Of course, as we said regarding the Chevy Impala, the number of Americans in the market for sedans is rapidly winding down, and other automakers are following Chrysler's footsteps in canceling their slow-selling four-doors. Even if Chrysler never really found its footing in the ultra-competitive midsize sedan segment, apparently dealerships have a few leftover 2017 200s floating around. And for some reason, 15 buyers decided to sign the dotted line to take one of these aging sedans home last year.

Petrolicious profiles an heirloom Willys Jeep CJ-3B

Tue, Mar 8 2016

Things tend to move pretty quickly in the automotive industry, but some icons that endure. Most of them are off-roaders – the Land Rover Defender, Mercedes G-Wagen, and of course the Jeep Wrangler. The latter traces its roots, of course, to the CJ-model Willys Jeep, built for civilian use in the wake of World War Two where it cut its teeth on the shores of Normandy and kicking off a legend that still endures over half a century later. For its latest video, Petrolicious profiles one such off-roader, and the man who owns it. That man is Larry Shank from California, and his ride is a 1953 Willys Jeep CJ-3B hooked up to a 1947 Ken-Skill Kustom Kamper Model 10. Both belonged to his father before him, and they would take family vacations in the wheeled pair from when he was young. His dad taught him to drive and maintain it, and they bonded over the shared experience. Shank still enjoys driving down the dirt roads and off the beaten paths of the American Southwest, and to hear him speak of it, he wouldn't trade in his Jeep for anything in the world. Watch his story unfold in the eight-minute video clip above to see what an enduring icon looks like.

Why Mopar won't release a factory lift kit for the new Jeep Cherokee

Thu, 24 Apr 2014

The Jeep Cherokee Dakar concept showed off at the 2014 Easter Jeep Safari made a lot of online friends, even the Cherokee naysayers assenting that there's a monster Jeep underneath the Cherokee's skin if you're willing to go in and get it. But after reading Road & Track's write-up of what went into creating the Dakar, particularly its lift, you'll understand why you'll probably never see the components for it in the Jeep Performance Parts catalog.
The concept's press release mentions a "prototype Jeep Performance Parts lift kit, and additional suspension modifications." The short-story explanation is that the front struts on the standard Cherokee weren't engineered to accept any amount of lift, so the long story begins with the phrase, "an entirely new suspension." Head over to RT to read the details, and don't be afraid to ogle the Cherokee Dakar gallery and another awesome Jeep fancy that won't likely crawl over the hurdles imposed by production reality.
