Description

1976 Jeep Wagoneer with ~101K Miles. This unique Wagoneer was built for cruises, drives, beaches, making new friends and memories. We made sure she kept her true character while adding modern comforts and upgrades that make her a true 1 of 1.

This truck got all of my love and needs nothing. Originally a southern truck that was brought to New England. It underwent a bare metal respray in its original “Omaha Orange”. As pictured she looks great and is ready for more decades of reliable service.

The roof, side stripe, bumpers and wheels were color matched with a custom Ivory color that gave her a vintage feel. The interior vision really sets her apart. In order to keep the “ airy and comfortable” vibe we started with a custom all metal dash backdate that matches the exterior color.

She has a new machined gauge cluster overlay that houses a new voltage regulator,temp gauge and LED bulbs. Upgraded to a digital clock, new plastic glove box insert and new Bluetooth classic style radio head unit. She has a custom made center console that houses a wireless cell phone charging pad, digital voltmeter,multiple USB accessory ports, and new stainless steel cup holders for your drinks.

There is a storage box under the arm rest and it is lined to match the upholstery. She has a custom vinyl headliner with new dome light covers and bulbs that all work. The upholstery takes it up another notch with tan marine grade vinyl, with matching tan tweed inserts.

Seats are later model buckets with custom adapters, new tan seatbelts and hardware to keep everyone safe. The full matching carpet kit is also brand new. All of the door,trunk and kick panel cards were upgraded with brand new laser cut ABS plastic units.

The steering wheel is also new and color matched to complete the look.She has a new fully polished steering column with all new ignition switches and keys. On the electric side everything works, she has a new battery,headlight switch, foot dimmer switch.

Jeep Grand Wagoneer Buyer's Guide

Robert Halloran here. I want to be direct: the Jeep Grand Wagoneer is the most important SUV in history. Not the Range Rover (which came later), not the Ford Bronco (which was smaller), and certainly not the Toyota Land Cruiser (which was stripped by comparison). The Wagoneer proved in 1963 that a 4WD vehicle could have air conditioning, power windows, leather seats, and wood paneling — and buyers would pay for the combination. Every Range Rover, every Cadillac Escalade, and every Lincoln Navigator owes its existence to the Wagoneer concept.

The Grand Wagoneer name was applied in 1984 to distinguish the original full-size wagon from the smaller Cherokee-based Wagoneer. But collectors use "Grand Wagoneer" to cover the entire 1963–1991 production run of the original full-size body. This guide covers that complete run.

What to Check Before Buying

Wood Panel Condition — Inspect wood panels for vinyl delamination and probe the steel substrate edges for rust.
Frame Rust — Inspect the full frame length for rust and cracks at body mount points.
4WD System — Test Quadra-Trac or Selec-Trac engagement — both high and low ranges should function smoothly.
AMC 360 Oil Leaks — Check for rear main seal and head gasket leaks — inspect the bellhousing area and under the exhaust manifolds.
Power Accessories — Test all power windows and door locks — actuator failures are common on older examples.
Carburetor Condition — Cold start and warm idle should be smooth — Carter or Motorcraft carbs need rebuilding on unrestored trucks.
AC System — Note whether AC uses original R-12 (requires conversion) or has been converted to R-134a.
Body-on-Frame Mounts — Check body mount rubber bushings — deteriorated mounts cause body flex and squeaks.

Common Issues

Wood panel vinyl delamination and underlying steel rust — the most common visible deterioration. Frame rust from road salt exposure on northern trucks. Quadra-Trac 4WD system seal leaks and engagement issues. AMC 360 rear main seal leaks. Power window and door lock actuator failures. Carburetor deterioration on high-mileage unrestored examples. Air conditioning system R-12 freon conversion requirement.

What to Look For

The wood panel condition is the most visible indicator of care — delaminating vinyl is a warning sign about overall maintenance quality. Inspect the steel substrate under the wood panels for rust, particularly at the lower edges. Check the frame rails for rust and any cracking at the body mount points. Verify the Quadra-Trac or Selec-Trac 4WD system engages smoothly. On the AMC 360 V8, check for oil leaks from the rear main seal and head gaskets. Test all power accessories — window regulators and locks on these trucks are failure-prone with age.

Price Guide

1963–1978 Wagoneer: $8,000–$25,000 for drivers, $30,000–$55,000 for restored examples. 1979–1983 Wagoneer: $12,000–$30,000 for good drivers. 1984–1991 Grand Wagoneer: $18,000–$45,000 for well-maintained drivers, $50,000–$90,000 for show-quality restorations. The market has appreciated 40–60% over the past five years and continues to rise.

Did You Know?

The Jeep Wagoneer was the first 4WD production vehicle with an independent front suspension (1963) — a feature that competing 4WD trucks didn't offer for years. The 1973 Quadra-Trac full-time 4WD was derived from the Oldsmobile Toronado's front-wheel-drive transfer case technology — an unusual piece of cross-platform engineering. The Grand Wagoneer was in continuous production for 29 years (1963–1991) with essentially the same body — the longest production run of any American SUV body style.
