1989 Jeep Grand Wagoneer "Wagonmaster"

You're looking at a clean, well-documented 1989 Jeep Grand Wagoneer with low original mileage.  

With only two previous owners, this Jeep has spent nearly its entire life of 25 years in sunny Florida.  It was newly delivered to Royal Jeep-Eagle in Fern Park, FL in May 1989, then traded-in to Winter Park Motorcars in Winter Park, FL in 1999 with only 74,122 miles. 

From there, the vehicle was acquired by the world-famous Wagonmaster of Kerrville, TX and underwent an extensive renewal process (for details see the attached link - www.wagonmaster.com).  The vehicle was sold by Wagonmaster to a caring new owner in Tallahasse, FL in August 1999.  Since the original Wagonmaster restoration in 1999, the Jeep has been driven a little 8,000 miles.

The body has no dents and no visible rust.  The undercarriage and floorboards are clean and dry - no evidence of undercoating or attempts to cover anything up. The Jeep appears to have been repainted to its original Sand color at some point.  There is some minor paint fading on the roof and the fenders, and some oxidation on the chrome - all of which can be attributed to the Florida sun. These minor blemishes are un-noticeable from about 10 feet away, but are visible when up close as seen in the pictures.

The wood/vinyl paneling and trim are in great condition. If you follow these vehicles, you'll know that it is nearly impossible to find a Wagoneer without wood paneling that is faded or cracked from the sun, and unfortunatley, the original replacement woodpaneling is now discontinued by Jeep (and the aftermarket replacement vinyl is either too yellow or too dark). 

On the inside, the leather seats are all in good condition with no rips.  The rear cargo cover is intact and operates well (the cargo cover is usually missing other Wagoneers on the market).  All the power windows and locks work.

The engine is the original Jeep/AMC 360V8 coupled with its 3-speed "Torqueflight/727" transmission. The carburetor has also been recently rebuilt and runs smoothly.  The previous owner recently installed a new set of Cooper Trendsetter whitewall tires all around with less than 1,000 miles on them, and a new set of rear shocks. 

Along with the attached photos I am attaching an independent Carchex inspection report that I ordered prior to purchasing this vehicle (The Jeep's clean Carfax history report is also available for your review). I am also attaching the original new vehicle inspection and delivery sheet, as well as, the original odometer declaration card and starting instructions from Wagonmaster

The vehicle is sold in as-is condition and is being sold locally - so I reserve the right to end the bid at any time.  The Jeep is available for inspection locally and I'd be happy to answer any additional questions (best I can) or provide additional photos.

These Jeeps are becoming harder to find especially in great condition as this one.  In 2015, it is expected that Jeep will relauch the "Wagoneer" nameplate - so you can expect the value and demand for these Jeep to soar. 

You can buy this as an investment, as a solid base for restoring/customizing, use as your daily driver - you will get many waves and smiles along the way!

Bid with confidence - good luck!

Jeep Cherokee sales rival Wrangler after two months

Sun, 29 Dec 2013

In our First Drive article on the 2014 Jeep Cherokee we said, "our informal and thoroughly unscientific opinion is they're going to sell tons of them. Why? Because it is very good." So far, it appears the public concurs. Of course, it's very early - the new compact utility has logged just one month of confirmed sales, but Larry Vellequette at Automotive News says dealers have told him that the second month of sales will be even better, a message that mirrors what we've heard from company execs.
In its first, severely truncated month on sale, the Cherokee sold 579 units. With all of November to play with, though, dealers moved 10,169 of them - compared to 11,753 Wranglers and 14,798 Grand Cherokees. That helped propel Jeep to a 30-percent year-on-year improvement for the month, Chrysler Group to a 16-percent improvement and the group's 44th consecutive month of sales growth, exceeding analyst expectations in posting its best November numbers since 2007.
If it can just keep replicating the its first month of sales, the finalist in North American Truck of the Year voting will smoke the trade done by the outgoing Liberty, which didn't break 7,900 units in a month in the last four years of its life (and normally didn't get close to even that). In March this year, Chrysler said it wants to build 250,000 Cherokees in its Toledo assembly plant for global sales. It's early yet, but with second-month sales quoted as being as "strong as death," the bookies might be resetting the odds.

Chrysler recalls 468,700 Jeep Grand Cherokees, Commanders over rollaway risk

Mon, 13 May 2013

Chrysler has issued a recall covering a combined 469,000 units of the 2005-2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee and the 2006-2010 Jeep Commander (inset). Of that number, 295,000 are in the US, roughly 33,000 in Canada and Mexico and the remainder in other markets. It seems an electrical fault in the transfer case can allow the affected SUVs to shift into neutral on their own, while an Associated Press report says that Chrysler had "found cracks in a circuit board that turns the four-wheel-drive system on and off." The issue was discovered when an owner started his car remotely and it rolled away.
Chrysler is expected to begin notifying owners in June 2013, who can then take their cars to dealers. The dealer will reflash the final drive controller free of charge. There's a bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below with more information.

Federal investigations about safety of rear-mounted gas tanks is nothing new

Sun, 09 Jun 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Chrysler are currently making waves in our daily news feeds due to a disagreement over the safety of a few million Jeep Liberty and Grand Cherokee models. Specifically, NHTSA has asked Chrysler to recall the SUVs because of the location of their fuel tanks, but you may be interested to know that requests such as this are nothing new.
Besides the two Jeep models, NHTSA has launched investigations over the years in such models as the Ford Crown Victoria (and its police-car counterpart), GM pickups built between 1972 and 1987, and rather famously the Ford Pinto.
Understanding how automakers and NHTSA have dealt with fuel-tank-safety concerns in the past may offer a better understanding of how Chrysler and the government agency will settle their current dispute. Check out the complete article from The Detroit News here.
