Year:1991 Mileage:124369
Location:

Chicago, Illinois, United States

Chicago, Illinois, United States

American Icon for sale:  

This listing is for a very clean and original 1991 Final Edition Grand Wagoneer. This fine example was ordered by the president of the dealership for his own use. This truck rolled off the assembly line on May 23 at 8am in the morning. He ordered this particular Jeep with all the options, even the rare factory sunroof.

This Grand Wagoneer was one of only 1560 produced for the 1991 model year as the last one was made on June 20, 1991. There is no way of knowing the VIN sequence since they jumped all around but this should be somewhere within the last 100 made. Buy this as a collectable item or to drive, but either way this is a must own piece of American Jeep history.

The Black Cherry Pearl paint on the truck is a dealer repaint that was done in 1993 as part of a factory recall. All vinyl and wood trim were replaced within the last month!

Along with the paint all the stainless trim was polished to a high shine. This is a low mileage rust free truck. This Wagoneer still retains the factory fog lamps and factory Jeep covers, which are getting very hard to find especially in this condition. 

The interior is all original as it was shipped other than speaker replacement. The original carpet is the ultra plush which is no longer available for sale. Lots of aftermarket companies sell stock carpet kits but they aren't anywhere close to stock. I recently purchased custom floor mats to match the carpet.

Truck still retains the stock radio and it works. The Jensen speakers were replaced. This is not a booming stereo but it was never meant to be. The cordovan leather interior is in great shape and all original to the truck. There are no rips or tears in any of the seats. The original plastic protection is still under each leg of the seats. I replaced the headliner within the last 4 months.

Under the hood it retains mostly all the factory parts. Had a complete tune-up (less than 1K miles ago) which includes carburetor rebuild, plugs, wires, cap, rotor, air filter, fuel filter, new fuel pump, oil filter, new Valvoline Maxlife 10-30 oil. New Amsoil transmission fluid and new filter. Both differentials have new Amsoil 75-90w severe gear oil. This truck was prepared for a possible long trip. All vacuum hoses that appeared dry or brittle were changed at the same time. This truck has spent its entire life in a garage in North Carolina so it has never been exposed to road salt and sand. It was brought back (on a flatbed) to the Midwest in 2013, always stored indoors while I did a few renovations.

Tires on the truck are brand new with less than 1,000 miles on them. They are Hankook whitewalls with a 60,000 mile tread wear rating. All grease fittings under the truck has been greased.  So a list of work done in last two months: Window wipes Tires Hankook WSW zero miles Carb rebuilt Spark plugs, wires, cap, rotor Rear window motor All new fluids New Mopar window regulators in all windows. This fine example of a Wagoneer is available for viewing and inspection at anytime.

Is this a brand new Jeep? NO. Is this a piece of American history? Most definitely. It is 99 percent original and one of the cleanest close to originals left. This is a very nice truck and deserves a good home. Please if any questions feel free to ask. Ok now on to the requirements of the auction. You must have a decent feedback score to bid. I expect a 1000 dollar deposit to be made within 24 hours of auctions end. Full payment must be made within 7 days in the form of bank wire, cashier’s check, or plain good old American cash. I will be happy to work with you as far as pickup. If you have it shipped I will do everything in my powers to work with your shipper.

Chrysler axes old V6s, goes all-Pentastar

Tue, 03 Sep 2013

Old technology has a way of lingering on, particularly at Chrysler headquarters in Auburn Hills. So while the Pentastar V6 has replaced the older engine architecture in just about every application, it still soldiered on in some export markets. But the introduction of a new 3.0-liter Pentastar V6, produced in Michigan and meant only for the Chinese market, has put the final nail in the old engine's coffin.
Fitted into the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Jeep Wrangler just introduced to China at the Chengdu Motor Show, the downsized six uses the same architecture as the larger 3.6-liter Pentastar V6. But because of its 2,997cc capacity, it can be exported to China without the increased duty the 3.6-liter or even 3.2-liter Pentastar engines would incur. The 3.0-liter V6 develops 230 horsepower at 6,350 rpm and 210 pound-feet at 4,400 rpm.
Admittedly, it's unlikely, but even though the engine was said to be created solely to undercut tax thresholds in China and Europe, the 3.0-liter Pentastar has recently surfaced in rumors of an application here: as the boosted heart of a potential Cherokee SRT with anywhere from 375 to 410 hp.

Jeep Grand Cherokee, BMW i8, Ford F-150 win 2015 Green Car Awards in DC [w/video]

Tue, Jan 27 2015

There were three shiny trophies handed out at the Washington Auto Show last week by Green Car Journal, and they went to three different examples of what "green" means in the automotive industry today. The Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel won the award for the 2015 Green SUV of the Year, the BMW i8 was named the 2015 Luxury Green Car of the Year and the Ford F-150 took the 2015 Green Car Technology Award honor. There is a case to be made that the aluminum body of the new Ford truck will make a bigger impact in the overall fuel usage in the US than almost any other vehicle, given the numbers of F-150s that Ford sells each year. The B20 biodiesel-capable Jeep gets up to 30 miles per gallon on the highway. And the i8 puts all sorts of new, fuel-saving technologies into an attractive package. Looking over the winners, and the list of finalists you can see in our photo gallery, and you can see that the definition of green is expanding every year. You can watch Green Car Journal editor Ron Cogan hand out the 2015 awards in the video below and we'll for sure be paying attention to what wins next year. 2015 Luxury Green Car of the Year, Green SUV of the Year and Green Car Technology Winners Announced WASHINGTON, Jan. 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Green Car Journal has named the Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel its 2015 Green SUV of the Year™ and the BMW i8 its 2015 Luxury Green Car of the Year™, with the aluminum-bodied Ford F-150 earning the magazine's 2015 Green Car Technology Award™. Winners were determined by a jury of Green Car Journal editors and automotive experts. The prestigious awards were announced in Washington, D.C. today at a Green Car Awards™ press conference held during the Washington Auto Show's Public Policy Day at the Washington Convention Center. "These are truly commendable vehicles representing the 'best-of-the-best' in so many ways," said Ron Cogan, editor and publisher of the Green Car Journal and CarsOfChange.com. "The auto industry's very early focus on small cars and efficiency-for-environment tradeoffs has evolved to now include a more dynamic field of 'greener' models in all vehicle classes. Those wanting greater efficiency or better environmental performance are no longer constrained by limited choices or vehicle types that fall outside their top purchase preferences.

Jeep recalls 92k Grand Cherokee SUVs over electrical issue

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Chrysler is recalling 91,559 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs from the 2014 model year due to some serious electrical issues. All of the affected models were built between January 8 and August 20, 2013.
The NHTSA report states that, "Due to a disruption of computer communications and loose alternator ground wires, the affected vehicles may experience random illumination of multiple instrument cluster warning lights, loss of cluster illumination and loss of anti-lock brake system (ABS) and electronic stability control (ESC) function." The loss of ABS or ESC would greatly reduce a driver's ability to control the vehicle if things get squirrely, and since these failures would not be illuminated on the dashboard display, drivers would not be warned of the issue, increasing the risk of a crash.
The recall is expected to kick off sometime this month. Chrysler will notify affected Jeep owners and dealerships "will update the ABS and instrument cluster module software and tighten the alternator ground wire," according to NHTSA.
