1973 Jeep Wagoneer 4x4 on 2040-cars

Year:1973 Mileage:58602

Elkhorn, Wisconsin, United States

The old Camp Wandawega "house Jeep" is looking for a new home. It has served us well over the last several years, but we're now looking for an older Jeep Wagon, so this one has to go to make room : ) It shows 58,602 miles on the odometer, but as a vintage vehicle the title is milage exempt, so we can't be sure exactly how many miles are on it. The prior owner claims it to be original miles, and goes on to state that the block is even newer: apparently they had summer weight coolant in it one cold Wisconsin winter instead of antifreeze, which led to a freeze, which led to a crack, which led to a new block. Take a look and you be the judge. This beast of a Wagoneer is pre-Grand Wagoneer, so no power seats, no power windows, no power door locks, to fail on you. This particular Jeep has appeared in a number of photo shoots and catalogs over the years for numerous magazines, brands and retailers including Flea Market Style, Penfield, Jack Spade, Warby Parker, Purina, etc. 
But please don't fall in love with the "photo shoot" persona of this Jeep. It's an old, used, driven Wagoneer and it needs some TLC, most notably new floor pans. New floor pans are a must. It can also use some suspension help: it has sagging leaf springs, old shocks. Mechanically, it fires right up, goes strong, shifts strong, and stops well. The body has some scratches, dings, a small dent in the rear cargo door, and some rust. I have a rear manual window crank that goes with it, but it is not installed. It will need to be installed in order to open and close the rear window. The mounting pole is stripped, so it won't simply attach as it should: some MacGyver-ing will be needed. It's a strong, reliable runner. This Jeep has never been professionally restored, just fixed up piecemeal over the years. Much of it as you see is original, including most of the interior. Your best bet is to come see it in person so you get a better sense of the TLC needed. What else can I tell you? Please don't hesitate to ask. And please don't buy it sight unseen thinking it's a show car, then complain later. Come look at it. We'll let it go for a fair price based on the condition. It's not a trailer queen "Wagonmaster" Jeep by a long shot, but it's a fun, cool, unique, Jeep and we'd love to see it go to a new loving home! The "Camp Wandawega" logos on both doors are not painted on, they are vinyl letters, and that will be removed prior to selling.

Jeep Cherokee won't get diesel until sales of oil-burning Grand Cherokee improve

Tue, 01 Jul 2014

Okay Jeep fans, you want more diesel options? Time to step up and prove it. The only way Jeep will offer a diesel powerplant in the Cherokee, according to brand head Mike Manley, is if sales of the Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel nearly double.
Currently, about eight percent of the Grand Cherokees sold feature the 3.0-liter, EcoDiesel V6. That's simply not enough to warrant the bringing an oil-burning Cherokee to the US market, despite the vehicle's presence in Europe, where it's sold with a 2.8-liter diesel V6.
"Cherokee is slightly different because of its weight and size. When I think about bringing Cherokee diesel here, I would like to see Grand Cherokee diesel get much higher than eight percent," Manley told Automotive News. "It would have to be in mid-double digits."
