Replacing the open-body veteran CJ, the new Wrangler was the most
rugged Jeep with enhanced convenience inside. Autoevolution
website, January 2021 The Wrangler shared the steering, the brakes,
the axles, the manual transmission, the clutch and the transfer
case with the Cherokee and the Wagoner. Also called the YJ, the
Wrangler was pretty similar in design with the CJ, however, it
featured square headlights and had a lower center of gravity, and
featured a heavy roller protection on the side, as well as behind
the front seats, offering great stability and less body roll in
turns. Inside, the rudimentary controls and the painted steel dash
were dropped, the Wrangler featuring a modern dashboard with 4
gauges as standard. Offered here is a 1987 Jeep Wrangler in red
(with a black fabric soft top) over black was sold new at ODaniel
Chrysler-Dodge-Jeep in Fort Wayne, Indiana on July 11, 1987 (a Jeep
Cherokee was the trade-in). This square-headlight YJ 4x4 has been
properly maintained and benefits from obviously meticulous owner
care. The astonishingly low 2,734 miles shown on its odometer,
together with its near-perfect condition, tell a story of a
well-loved and respectfully treated vehicle. And a rare opportunity
to acquire a virtually brand-new, 34-year-old Jeep. (Extensive
documentation of the original dealer sale is included in the sale.
Please see the photos of the printed material-including the full
standard and optional equipment list for the Jeep-in the
accompanying gallery.) The red exterior paint-a classic color for a
classic vehicle-is in excellent condition across all body panels.
The shine is properly glossy and free of paint imperfections or
obvious wear; there is no sign of sun-fading. In the same way,
there is no evidence of body damage anywhere (including on the
optional aluminum wheels, chrome 7-opening grille, and chrome front
bumper) such as might exist from extensive or too-aggressive
off-roading. (To best assess the quality of the paint and trim
finishes, be sure to view the close-up photographs of the car in
the accompanying gallery.) Twin white-and-silver stripes beginning
on the front fenders and continuing to outline the flanks are in
excellent condition. Fiberglass fender flares and incorporated
side-entry-assist step are in as-new condition. The black soft top
also shows no imperfections and no damage. Cabin glass and all
lighting lenses are clear and free of cracks. Factory
identification in the way of the embossed-and-black-painted Jeep on
the body sides is in place and pristine. Jeep-branded 15-inch,
5-spoke, brushed aluminum sport wheels are mounted with GoodYear®
Wrangler Radial all-terrain tires. A red bug-deflector shield is
mounted on the hood and an antenna mount is installed on the rear.
The Jeep's overall presentation is showroom condition. Inside, the
same high level of care and condition is evident throughout.
Painted door sills and step-over area show no undue wear. Charcoal
fabric seat upholstery on the front high-back buckets and the
foldable rear bench seat is clean and free of rips, tears, or even
signs of much use. The fabric is a pleasing geometric mix. Black
cabin-floor covering is protected by rubber mats in front, and the
cargo area is also carpeted. The shift lever for the 5-speed manual
transmission is floor-mounted alongside t
