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!

Ram, Jeep redesigns on hold, Alfa Romeo models may come sooner

Wed, Jun 3 2015

Last summer, FCA outlined an ambitious five-year plan that sketched out the company's product intentions for each of its brands through the end of 2018. However, even the best strategies sometimes need tweaking. According to Reuters after speaking with unnamed people at auto suppliers, FCA is now possibly delaying at least a dozen projects in North America for a variety of reasons. From vehicle to vehicle, these postponements allegedly last anywhere from just a few months to over a year. The sources from the suppliers claim that in some cases these tweaks are for engineering and design changes. The next-gen Ram 1500 reportedly has among the shorter delays and is being pushed from mid-2017 to November 2017, according to Reuters. Also, the much-discussed future Jeep Wrangler is allegedly moving a little later to July 2017. Among the vehicles purportedly seeing longer delays, the next-gen Grand Cherokee could get pushed back about a year to 2018. That then forces the launch of the three-row, luxury Grand Wagoneer to be even further away. Jeep's upcoming C-segment CUV and the all-new Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger, and Challenger might also see postponements. The one brand allegedly seeing an accelerated plan is Alfa Romeo. Without going into detail, the sources from these suppliers claim that the Italian automaker is getting even more vehicles for its lineup and could get them even faster than planned. "Those plans need to be flexible and fluid, with the potential to add some vehicles, pull some forward and extend the life cycle of others," FCA said to Reuters about all of these allegations. "We look at these programs on a vehicle-by-vehicle basis." Investment in the auto industry has been a major topic for FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne as of late. He believes consolidation is necessary so that companies aren't burning money on the same projects.

Next Jeep Wrangler to get hybrid option?

Wed, Jan 21 2015

This may the year a Jeep hybrid is officially announced. Really. The Chrysler division may finally be making plans for its first gas-electric powertrain to help boost the group's fuel economy, says UK's Auto Express, citing Mike Manley, CEO of FCA's Jeep division. The guinea pig of sorts may be the Wrangler, which moved almost a quarter-million units in the US last year. The Wrangler could get a hybrid drivetrain by the 2017 model year, as Jeep executives look to maintain the model's feel and torque while boosting its fuel economy. The Wrangler gets a pretty paltry 18 miles per gallon combined out of its six-cylinder mill, so the bar's set pretty low. Of course, we've heard this talk before. In late 2013, Chrysler Asia-Pacific product planning manager Steve Bartoli told Australia's Drive that a Jeep hybrid was pretty much inevitable, though not much has been mentioned since. FCA could use all the help it can get in the fuel economy department. The group brought up the rear among automakers when it came to fuel efficiency, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) said in its EPA Trends report released last October. The FCA models combined for a 21.1 miles per gallon average for the 2014 model year, compared to the 24.2 mpg overall industry average. The group's only electric vehicle in the US is the low-volume Fiat 500e, though the company may start selling a plug-in hybrid version of its Chrysler Town & Country by the end of the year.

Chrysler banks $507 million in Q2, trims 2013 earnings forecast

Tue, 30 Jul 2013

Chrysler has some good news and some bad news. First, profits were up 16 percent over the second quarter of 2012, bringing the Auburn Hills, Michigan-based manufacturer $507 million on the back of strong demand for trucks and SUVs (a recurring theme this quarter, particularly in the US). Q2 revenue was up as well, from $16.8 billion in 2012 to $18 billion in 2013. The bad news is that the Pentastar's overall earnings forecast for net income in 2013 has been trimmed from $2.2 billion to between $1.7 and $2.2 billion, according to Automotive News.
In addition to the adjusted net income forecast, Chrysler tweaked its operating profit from $3.8 billion to between $3.3 and $3.8 billion. This has gone largely unexplained by Chrysler, perhaps hoping the news of a three-percent increase in its transaction prices for Q2 will allow it to sweep this adjustment under the rug.
The star of the show for Chrysler has been its US sales, which saw a 10-percent jump, both bettering the industry average of eight percent and improving over the same stretch of 2012. As with the increase in transaction prices, Chrysler has the new Ram pickup and Jeep Grand Cherokee to thank. Perhaps most worrying from this report, though, is that every brand in the automaker's stable saw an increase in sales... except for the Chrysler brand itself.
