1988 Jeep Grand Wagoneer Base Sport Utility 2-door 5.9l (4-door) on 2040-cars

Year:1988 Mileage:129055

Pennsville, New Jersey, United States

The body is in good condition.  It does have several dings and a few dents and scratches.  The body is rust free and the frame is in good shape.  The transmission was rebuilt a few thousand miles ago.  It has 4 tires with less than 10,000 miles on them.  The battery is about 18 months old.  The interior is in good shape.  The driver side seat does have a tear in it.  The power seats work.  The power windows work.  The rear tailgate glass works.  The power locks don't always work properly.  I checked it on Carfax when I bought it and it hasn't been in any accidents.  The lower sections of both passenger side doors were repainted while it was still in Arizona.  I don't know what happened, maybe someone rubbed the them against something.  I replaced all the door seals a couple of years ago.  The driver side door needs to be adjusted, as it will leak when you are washing it.  I have a cover for it, which will be included.  The clear coat is coming off in several areas.  The hood ornament is broken off, but I have the broken piece and will include it.

It had been a great truck.  I was driving it the other day, when I lost oil pressure and got a terrible clattering from under the hood.  My mechanic is telling me the engine needs to be rebuilt, which I just don't have the money for at this time.  I'd rather see the truck go to someone that can use it, then having it go to the scrap yard and be crushed.

The truck is from Arizona originally.  It was purchased by a guy in Maryland about 8 years ago and I bought it from him 6-7 years ago.

The vehicle is being sold AS IS.  It is to be considered non-running, although the engine will turn over and it will move (I'm not recommending this and I won't be moving it any further).   If you have access to an engine, everything else you need is right here.

I will not ship the vehicle.  You will need to pick it up no later then August 10, 2014.  I require a $500 deposit via PayPal within 48 hours of auction close.  If you don't send the deposit within 48 hours, I will re-list and report you to eBay.  Any remaining balance will be due in cash when you pick up the truck.

If you have any questions,  please contact me.  I will try to have an answer back to you as soon as possible.

2014 Jeep Patriot and Compass ditch CVT for six-speed auto

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

It was reported in Automotive News a few months ago, but a new report on Allpar.com adds some details to news that the 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot will get a six-speed automatic to replace the CVTs they currently use. According to a tip provided to Allpar, the 2014 models will begin production in March and be on sale sometime in the summer. The Jatco-sourced CVT in use until now - Jatco is owned by Nissan and Mitsubishi - has been often criticized, and many won't be sad to see it go.
The incoming six-speed automatic is said to be an all-wheel-drive cog-swapper that's the work of Hyundai and Magna and has been paired with the DynaMax AWD system used in the Hyundai ix35 and Kia Sportage. It won't be the only Chrysler product using a transmission with ties to Hyundai: the six-speed automatic in the Dodge Dart comes from Powertech, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hyundai. With the Patriot and Compass said to be driving down the trail for the last time this year, it will be a short run for the new tranny and the rumored addition of a backup camera and power rear liftgate on the Compass.

Watch this 650-hp Hennessey Jeep Grand Cherokee go from 0-60 in 3.9 seconds

Tue, 14 May 2013

Hennessey Performance Engineering has created an HPE650 package for the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT fitted with the 6.4-liter Hemi engine. When it leaves the showroom floor it has 470 horsepower and gets from 0-60 miles per hour in 4.8 seconds. When it leaves Hennessey's garage floor after the upgrade it has 650 horsepower - 530 hp at the wheels, according to Hennessey - and gets to 60 mph in 3.9 seconds on its way to running the quarter-mile in 12.6 seconds.
There's more than just a Roots-type supercharger bolt-on, with ported cylinder heads and high-flow headers among the many changes made to the engine. You can watch this pre-2014 facelift silver model prove its spec sheet on the drag strip in the video below.

Jeep team takes a field trip to Wagonmaster; researching next Grand Wagoneer?

Fri, 01 Feb 2013


They have the very best intentions of rolling out a seven-passenger vehicle.
Wagonmaster has made a name for itself restoring and selling factory-perfect Jeep Grand Wagoneer models, bridging the gap between when the last production machine rolled off the line in 1991 and present day. The company's efforts haven't gone unnoticed. The entire Jeep product planning team took a little field trip to the company's facility in Kerrville, Texas back in December, and they weren't just there to take in the sights. According to owner Leon Miller's son, Chip Miller, the Jeep team was there to do research for the successor to the Grand Wagoneer throne.
