1989 Jeep Grand Wagoneer

68,076 Original Miles

 

VERY low mileage 1989 Jeep Grand Wagoneer, garaged in Memphis, Tennessee.  I purchased this Jeep in February 2010 as a fun weekend car because I always liked their style and have put less than 2,000 miles on it in 4+ years.  I have kept it always in my garage and it has not seen a raindrop in those 4 and a half years.  My wife and I just had a baby and that is causing me to sell for some extra cash.

 

Pros: This Jeep is a very desirable color combination – the Baltic Blue with Sand interior.  Cosmetically the paint and woodgrain are very clean – although I have included one picture of a ding on the woodgrain where I have held a key up for a size reference.  Interior is in good shape and original, although the headliner was replaced before I purchased the vehicle.  The car starts easily and drives well – great for cruising around town.  I always got a lot of honks and waves in this car, as for some reason it seems to make people happy to see one that looks nice.  Until a year or two ago Memphis had emissions testing and this vehicle passed our emissions standards – no small feat for an AM 360 engine of this age.  Also the rear window rolls up and down – this motor they often say is one of the first things to go.

 

Cons:  I am not really a car guy so I can only tell you what I know to be wrong with the vehicle, and I will be honest.  The fuel gauge always shows full – the most likely cause is the fuel tank sending unit has gone bad.  This is not a bad change as I read you can access the top of the fuel tank from under the rear bench seats, and the sending unit retails for about $55.  The front driver side tire has a slow leak and is missing the “Jeep” center cap on the wheel (these come up on ebay all the time).  The AC blows but does not blow cold – may have a freon leak.  The heater works great.  The emergency break does not completely keep the car from rolling when it is in gear – I think it may need to be tightened.  The radio doesn’t work but I think the fuse blew – I am going to replace the fuse this week and if that fixes the problem I will update the listing.  Also the power door locks only lock/unlock a couple of the doors.

 

I have had some work done on this car.  Shortly after purchase in 2010 I had new plugs, wires, distributor cap, ignition rotor, a few hoses, and fuel filter replaced as well as a carb rebuild.  I also had a catalytic converter, muffler, tail pipe and hanger installed so that it would pass emissions testing.  I also had new front and rear shocks and steering damper installed.  I have receipts for all of the above.

 

All in all this is not a fully restored or show quality car that you often see on ebay, but I am not seeking fully restored prices either.  However this is a great opportunity to get into a low mileage Grand Wagoneer that looks great as it drives by, and if you are handy you can put some time into this car and really have something special.  The miles don't lie, and 68k Grand Wagoneers don't come up for sale often in the price range I am looking for.

 

I have listed what I know is wrong with the car but that does not constitute a warranty that there may not be other things that I do not know about.  The car is still being sold “as-is” with no warranties (expressed or implied, written or oral).  I will not provide a return or refund, no exceptions.  Buyer is responsible for any and all shipping expenses.  Car comes with a free and clear title.

 

If you have any questions about the Jeep feel free to shoot me an e-mail at mattlammel@yahoo.com.  This is usually the best way to reach me.

 

PAYMENT:

 

I require a deposit of $1,000.00 to be paid via Paypal within 24 hours of purchase, no exceptions unless discussed and approved first.  Final payment is due within three (3) calendar days of purchase, no exceptions unless discussed and approved first.  If final payment is not made within three calendar days, then the deposit becomes my property and I retain the rights to re-list the car or sell the car at will.

 

By bidding, and/or making an offer, and/or purchasing the car you are agreeing to the terms above.

 

I have the vehicle listed locally and reserve the right to end this auction at any time.

Jeep leads list of 25 most patriotic brands

Thu, 04 Jul 2013

It's not unusual to feel extra patriotic this time of year, what with the Fourth of July being today and all. As if to celebrate, New York-based research firm Brand Keys conducted a study among 4,500 consumers about what brands they find to be the most patriotic. According to the Detroit Free Press, Jeep took top honors in this study, besting other American stalwart brands including Coca-Cola, Levi's and Hershey's.
Interestingly, the only other automotive brand to make the list was Ford, in the 16th spot (motorcycle fans take note - Harley-Davidson claimed the No. 13 slot). This means consumers found Jeep to be more patriotic than any of the brands in the General Motors portfolio, including Chevrolet, which has long used American themes in its advertising over the decades.
According to Brand Keys, Jeep came in "with a score of 98 out of 100 on a scale representing consumers' emotional engagement expectations," the Detroit Free Press reports. Be sure to read the report to scan the entire Top 25 list for yourself.

Jeep Wrangler gets the wide-track treatment

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

When we read the tip about a Gulf-state diplomat in Rabat, Morocco who had supposedly "merged two Jeep Wranglers," we figured the two off-roaders were somehow linked front-to-back. Oh no. As you can see in the image above, taken from video of that vehicle actually traveling down the road and needing more than one lane to do it, the two Jeeps were put together side-by-side.
The seriously widebody truck is said to have six wheels, one at each corner and two in the middle. That's about all anyone seems to know about it at the moment, and that's probably enough - in these situations you know better than to ask why, just watch the video below.

2015 Jeep Renegade

Tue, 04 Mar 2014

It's no secret that the midsize crossover segment is one of the most hotly contested battlegrounds in the automotive industry. Long have vehicles like the Ford Escape, Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4 duked it out for those ever illusive consumer dollars. For many customers, though, even something like a Nissan Rogue is too big, whether in terms of price, fuel economy or just plain size.
For those customers, a growing market segment seems poised to fulfill their needs. Compact crossovers and tall wagons like the Nissan Juke and Kia Soul offer the high-riding driving experience with all the utility that comes from their two-box layout. It's an underrepresented segment among manufacturers, with big names like Toyota, Ford, General Motors and Honda lacking a true competitor.
To capitalize on this growing class, Chrysler's Jeep brand has readied this: the Renegade. That's right. Not Jeepster - Renegade. This diminutive off-roader, which rides on Fiat Chrysler's new small-wide 4x4 architecture, represents Jeep's first foray into the subcompact CUV segment as we know it, and it's making its official debut this week, on the floor of the 2014 Geneva Motor Show. Join us as we take a close look at one of Jeep's most important products in some time.
