HIGHLIGHTS: • The Ultimate Cult Classic: A highly sought-after 1988
Grand Wagoneer, the gold standard of vintage American SUVs. •
Excellent Wood Grain: Features remarkably well-preserved exterior
wood paneling and trim which is often the hardest parts to replace.
• Strong Heart: Equipped with the legendary 360ci V8 engine and
automatic transmission. • 4x4 Capability: Legendary Selec-Trac
four-wheel-drive system. • Comfort Options: Power windows, power
locks, power steering, and power brakes. • Honest Survivor: A
complete, running, and driving example ready for a rolling
restoration. BODY OVERVIEW: The Grand Wagoneer is the grandfather
of the luxury SUV, and its boxy silhouette is instantly
recognizable. Full Transparency: This Jeep wears an older white
finish that is rough in person, showing significant fading, aging,
and water stains that don't fully translate in digital photos.
However, the sheet metal is honest, and the highly desirable
faux-wood paneling is in fantastic condition compared to most
survivors, giving this rig a great ""patina-king"" look or
providing the perfect canvas for a fresh respray. PAINT CONDITION
OVERVIEW: The white paint is best described as driver-quality with
heavy patina. It exhibits fading and staining throughout from years
of storage and use. If you are looking for a concours-level show
truck, it will require paint correction or a total respray. If you
are looking for a rugged, worry-free beach cruiser or trail rig you
can park anywhere without stressing over rock chips, this exterior
fits the bill perfectly. INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW: Inside, the
cabin features the classic tan leather-and-cloth seating. The seats
show normal wear and staining consistent with their age, but they
remain remarkably free of major rips or tears. The rear cargo area
is rough and has seen plenty of use over the last nearly four
decades. Additionally, the headliner is beginning to sag and will
need to be tacked up or replaced. It is an honest, complete
interior that functions well for a weekend driver but leaves plenty
of room for cosmetic equity-building. MECHANICAL OVERVIEW: Under
the hood is the robust 360 cubic inch V8 paired with a
smooth-shifting automatic transmission. The Jeep fires up easily
and runs strong once warmed up. Mechanical Note: The carburetor is
currently touchy and prone to flooding if pumped too aggressively.
A quick carb rebuild or adjustment will vastly improve its daily
manners. The 4x4 system, power steering, and power brakes give it
the classic, commanding road presence these trucks are famous for.
WHAT YOU'LL LOVE ABOUT THIS CAR: • Unbeatable Wood Trim: The
exterior wood grain vinyl is in beautiful shape, which is a massive
money-saver for the next owner. • Massive Following: Grand
Wagoneers are blue-chip collectibles; even rougher examples hold
incredible enthusiast demand. • No Secrets: A completely
transparent, un-flipped survivor that hasn't been cosmetically
masked. • Perfect Project Foundation: The perfect ""rolling
restoration"" you can drive and enjoy on weekends while you fix it
up. WHAT YOU MIGHT HATE ABOUT THIS CAR: • Cosmetic Wear: The paint,
headline, and cargo area look rougher in person than they do in
pictures. • Fickle Cold Starts: The carburetor needs a gentle foot
and a proper tune-up to prevent flooding. • True Patina: It is a
rugged utility vehicle, not a restored mall-crawler. • Summer
Comfort: The factory A/C system is currently inoperative, so you'll
be riding with the windows down until it's sorted. DOES IT NEED
ANYTHING? • A/C system repair or replacement if cold air is
desired. The compressor is not present. • A carburetor
rebuild/tune-up to fix the flooding tendency. • A replacement
headliner and a deep carpet cleaning/detailing in the cargo area. •
Cosmetic attention to the white paint if you desire a shiny finish.
WHAT BUYER IS LOOKING FOR THIS CAR? This Grand Wagoneer is for the
enthusiast who knows exactly how valuable these trucks are becoming
and wants a solid, running project at an accessible entry point.
Whether you want to leave the paint alone and use it as a cool
beach/mountain cruiser, or spend a few weekends dialing in the
interior and carb to build instant equity, this Jeep is an honest,
open book. Contact Rare Rides Company at 980-306-8100 or
