1987 Jeep Grand Wagoneer - Ca Car Now In Mw (storage) on 2040-cars
Chicago, Illinois, United States
Why am I selling? Bought it to tow an Airstream that I've since sold. I have two other JGW's, and want to buy more, so need to make room. This Jeep spent its entire life in California, before I shipped it back to the Midwest to restore. Body and Paint: This original Jeep retains its original body and paint from the factory. All of the panels are rust free because of its SoCal ownership history. The paint is amazing for its age and still holds a very high shine and gloss. There isn't any evidence of previous paint touch up anywhere on the vehicle. The vinyl and trim were replaced, I used 1" trim. The door jambs and sills even are in great condition are free of any wear marks. The driver’s door jamb still retains the factory vehicle info decal with vin number and other vehicle information. Trim and Chrome: The exterior trim and chrome are all intact and original to the vehicle. All trim holds a nice high quality chrome shine and free of any pitting. Engine and Transmission: The engine is the original 360 V-8 that the Jeep was built with and holds good oil pressure and runs nice and cool. The engine compartment is all original with factory emission tag, data tag and factory markings still in place. The transmission operates flawlessly and shifts nice and crisp as it should. The 4x4 switch operates properly as well as the 4x4 low. This GW runs nice and smooth with a quiet ride. The exhaust system is in great condition also and does not need any work. I installed a Holly fuel pump to overcome the chronic Jeeps have. I had all fluids (radiator, oil, transfer case, differential) replaced. I installed an heavy duty radiator and trailer hitch. Brakes were rebuilt last year. Interior: The leather seats would pass for a vehicle with 80,000 miles. I put a new headliner in a year ago. The carpet is the original deep shag and is in great condition with a few small wear areas. The door panels do not have any marks on them and fit like they did day one. The dash, gauges, steering wheel, horn button, door handles, wood trim accents and balance of the interior are all in great original condition and have never been altered in any way. Stereo is a Sony AM/FM with CD player. I do have the original radio in a box that the Jeep was delivered with and that will go to the next owner. Glass and Mirrors: From what I have observed the glass is all original. There aren’t any chips or stars in the windshield. The side glass has had a minor tint applied because of its southern ownership history and I believe that aided in preserving the interior from sun fade and heat. The rear power glass window in the tailgate operates correctly from either the dash mounted button or key function. This Jeep has the power mirror option for both drivers side and passenger side and they operated smooth and quiet. Wheels and Tires: All of the wheels are original and are in very nice condition. They have the correct center caps and lug nuts. The tires are high quality Hankook tires have <15K on them. Terms of Sale: I am selling the Jeep “as is” because vehicles of this age are. If you have the opportunity to see and drive this GW before the auction period expires, then I invite you to do so to truly appreciate the originality and excellent condition of this vehicle. I have offered a buy it now option to end the auction early and buy the Jeep. I have compared my buy it now price with comparable GW’s in this condition and feel it is very well priced. |

YouTube tallies votes for this year's top five Super Bowl spots [w/video]
Tue, 19 Feb 2013When we asked you to tell us which of this year's 16 car-themed Super Bowl commercials you liked best, you chose the Farmer commercial from Chrysler Group, advertising the Ram trucks, over Audi's Prom commercial in second place. Turns out the voters in YouTube's Ad Blitz poll agreed, voting the same commercial to the number one spot from among the field commercials in every category.
From there, however, they went in a totally different direction. Budweiser's The Clydesdales spot came second, Samsung's The Next Big Thing took third. The Jeep Whole Again ad scored fourth in the YouTube poll, fifth in our poll of auto commercials, and the Hyundai Team spot got fifth from the YouTubers, but ninth in our poll.
The voting results don't match up with the viewing numbers, though - while Farmer has more than 13 million views, The Next Big Thing is well beyond 21 million. You can read the press release below and see all five spots, lined up for you, one more time.
It lives! Our first glimpse of the Jeep Wrangler pickup
Wed, Jul 20 2016Okay, it's real now. We've been hearing rumors for years, and Jeep officials have confirmed a pickup will be added to the next-gen Wrangler lineup, but now we have our first photographic evidence of the long-awaited variant. It looks huge, and we're totally okay with that. These photos show a very-long-wheelbase Wrangler with a decent-size pickup bed. It looks to be about the same overall size as the AEV Brute Double Cab Wrangler pickup conversion, which itself is about the length of a Suburban. The bed appears to be in the five-foot range, maybe slightly shorter than the standard box of a half-ton truck. And those taillights, or at lest the covers on them, recall the shape of the lights on a Ram. These overhead shots also give a better look at the next Wrangler's evolved seven-slot grille. We see bigger spacing between thinner ribs, which would seem antithetical to the goal of improving the Wrangler's traditionally poor aerodynamics. It's possible FCA is using an air shutter to manage airflow, as it does on the Ram pickups and some other products. Related Gallery 2018 Jeep Wrangler Detailed Spy Photos View 18 Photos To recap what we know about the next Wrangler: It's expected to offer a gas V6 once again, as well as a turbocharged four-cylinder nicknamed Hurricane and an EcoDiesel-branded diesel engine. There have also been rumors of a hybrid powertrain. We don't yet know how many of those engines will make it to the pickup, but at least one gas engine and the diesel are safe bets. People love the idea of diesel Jeep pickups. We also know from interior spy photos that at least some of those new powertrains will use an eight-speed automatic. That, the modern engines, and improved aero will help the Wrangler be more efficient while still retaining much of its rugged, blocky look. The two- and four-door Wranglers are expected for the 2018 model year, with the pickup following for 2018 or 2019. Related Video:
Jeep reveals annual Moab Easter Jeep Safari concepts
Wed, 20 Mar 2013Jeep has unveiled its annual spate of concepts before the Easter Jeep Safari. Those start with the Grand Cherokee Trailhawk Concept (below left), complete with the company's EcoDiesel V6 engine. Designers threw in a set of 35-inch Mickey Thompson tires wrapped around 17-inch Rubicon wheels, and a set of custom fender flares help keep all that rubber under wraps.
Meanwhile, the Wrangler Mopar Recon (below right) packs a 6.4-liter Hemi V8 good for 470 horsepower. All that grunt gets to the ground via a five-speed automatic transmission and a set of a Dana 60 axles frond and rear with 4.10 gears. The Recon also makes use of a 4.5-inch prototype long-arm kit and a set of prototype eight-lug bead lock wheels.
The Wrangler Stitch (below left) builds on the momentum of the Wrangler Pork Chop Concept. Engineers once again set out to strike as much weight as possible from the vehicle, and actually managed to trim the curb weight down to 3,000 pounds. That effort has given the machine the same power to weight ratio as the Grand Cherokee SRT8. Plenty of carbon fiber, door deletes and a chrome moly roll cage all help trim those pounds, and a set of DanyTrac Pro Rock 44 axles with 4.88 gears and ARB lockers front and rear let this machine scramble over whatever is in its path.
