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.

Jeep Grand Cherokee redesign delayed

Sat, Jun 27 2015

The launch of the next-gen Jeep Grand Cherokee is being now being pushed back until late 2018 or even into 2019, Jeep CEO Mike Manley indicated Friday, according to Automotive News citing a Reuters report. Under the original five-year plan, the SUV was supposed to be replaced in the third quarter of 2017. That would have made for a big year for Jeep with a refreshed Renegade and new Wrangler also slated for 2017. A delayed Grand Cherokee could send ripples through Jeep's product plans. The three-row Grand Wagoneer is meant to give the brand a vehicle to take on the Land Rover Range Rover, but it's supposed to use the same platform as the Grand Cherokee. This change is rumored to push that important model's launch further back. There's less uncertainty when it comes to the next-gen Wrangler. Manley said that the model was "broadly on track," according to Automotive News. The five-year plan aimed for a launch in the second quarter of 2017. Controversy, however, has swirled over possible plans to move the Wrangler from its longtime Toledo, OH, factory. One problem Jeep doesn't have to worry about right now is sales. According to Automotive News, Manley said volume was up 20 percent globally and could reach 1.2 million by the end of the year. He also indicated the brand was "on pace" to reach its 1.9-million-vehicle goal for 2018. The Grand Cherokee delay comes in the wake of rumors that FCA US is shuffling around its previous five-year vehicle launch plan to postpone several models. Related Video:

NHTSA closes investigation into Jeep Liberty fires

Sun, 16 Mar 2014

The investigation that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened into the Jeep Liberty in October 2013 has been closed. NHTSA received two (!) complaints about fires starting in the driver's door, thought to be caused by the master power window switch. The initial estimate was that 80,000 Libertys could be roped into a possible recall, but according to a report in the Detroit News the agency examined records for 425,000 Chrysler products that used the same window switch, including the Dodge Nitro and Chrysler Town & Country minivan.
After canvassing 265 warranty claims related to the master switches, NHTSA concluded that the rate of fires compared to the "large population of vehicles" was rather low, and that there was no trend pattern behind the few issues it did find. Perhaps with that, and the closure of the trailer hitch investigation, the Liberty can finally rest in peace.

'84 MotorWeek Cherokee, Bronco and Blazer comparison indulges your SUV nostalgia

Fri, Jan 16 2015

These days, truck-based, full-frame SUVs are somewhat of a rarity on the auto landscape due to the rapid rise in popularity of easier-driving, car-based crossovers. Although, without the gradually building popularity of these chunky, high-riding vehicles decades ago, it's unlikely that America's roads would be filled with so many CUVs today. In its latest dig into the archives, MotorWeek has found a 1984 comparison test of a trio of these early Sport Utility Wagons, as long-time host John Davis called them, that helped get acceptance of this segment going. This is a red, white and blue test of the SUVs from American automakers at the time and pits the Chevrolet Blazer, Ford Bronco and Jeep Cherokee (specifically in Wagoneer guise) against each other. Driving manners and interior usability are considered in the evaluation, but Motorweek actually takes these vehicles off road, too. Among the bigger revelations is the improvement in on-road ability in the past 30 years. While specific 0-60 times aren't given, all three models take around 10 seconds just to get to around 50 miles per hour in the 500-feet on-ramp acceleration test. Check out this clip to see just how far this segment has progressed in the past three decades or just get a blast of nostalgia from these now vintage models.
