![]() Leather power seats, power windows and locks,power mirrors. Power sun roof. A/C. (Rear defrost and wiper) not working at this time 116000 miles 360 v8 727 auto tranny. What really attracted me to this wagoneer was the fact that it did not have wood grain. I found it on craigslist and we drove 437 miles one way to a little town right on the Idaho Washington border. The original owner ordered it from the factory without wood grain and then had the maroon painted. It came with a file folder full of receipts and maintenance records from the time it was new. This is pretty handy, while looking through them I found receipts for new brake shoes and drums on the rear in 2012 but only 1000 miles ago. Original owners Manuel still in the glove box. The original owner passed away and the Wagoneer sat in the garage for 4-5 years, until his son sold it to the guy I bought it from. The guy I bought it from bought it just to resell and put less than 500 miles on it. Edited by Flatfender Ben - 19 Dec. 2017 at 10:02pm |

Our family car from 1965 to 1977 (my age 8 to 19) was a Yellow Wagoneer with the 230 OHC and 3 on the tree HOTTER THEN YOU NO WHERE Black interior) After it pass on from being the family car I drove it to work for a summer then the little brothers got a hold of it and spent their time trying to prove the stuff they did in Jeep commercials were for wimps. I think it had north of 250K on the clock when we sold it. still solid still on the road and the guy they sold it to last time I saw him said it had over 300K on it. That was a GREAT rig.

Beautiful shot Ben! http://www.bjsoffroad.com/ does a calendar every year... just saying. ![]() Dealt with them a few times and always happy. They are in Washington State, so shipping times are not that bad plus you get a discount if you are a member of http://www.ifsja.org/forums/vb/forumdisplay.php?f=79 ( Top sticky thread.) Or http://www.fsjnetwork.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=34&sid=f79343c32dfd0f1e3f04df18b5a58905 ( 2nd Thread) But for calendar shots, maybe Dispatcher magazine will be happy to use this one... again just saying. ![]() |
