This example was made at American Motors' Toledo, Ohio assembly plant. Rugged toughness and power are the defining characteristics of the 1985 Jeep Wagoneer.This Grand Wagoneer's paint and trim are in overall excellent order, however there are some minor blemishes upon close inspection. The faux woodgrain appliqués on the doors and fenders are in overall very good order.The Wagoneer's windows are clear and intact but there are some minor chips visible in the windshield. The truck's lights are in overall very good order; however the driver's side fog light lens is cracked.This SUV's bodywork is solid and straight, the shiny chrome bumpers fit well to the body, the engine bay is tidy and the battery looks very good. In the rear, the cargo area looks very good,This truck rolls on BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A light truck tires, size 30X9.50R15 at all four corners. Each tire surrounds a factory aluminum wheel with a center cap.Under that hood is a 360 CID V-8 engine; the 360 was the last AMC V-8 to be manufactured. It is buttoned to a General Motors-supplied Turbo Hydramatic 400 three-speed automatic transmission.Inside, the original Honey-colored interior is in overall very good order. The leather bucket seats and rear bench seat are swathed in Honey Leather and look fantastic. The matching honey-hued carpet is in good condition in front, the original carpet is presentable while the headliner is in very good condition, as is the three-spoke steering wheel, complete with faux woodgrain hub. The instrument panel is in good shape while the inner door panels are in very good condition. Rounding out the interior is a Sony AM/FM stereo with CD player.Compared with offerings from GM, Ford, International Harvester and Land Rover — which were producing utilitarian work-oriented vehicles with spartan truck-like interiors — the Wagoneer's luxury set it apart. Together with the Gladiator Truck, the revolutionary Wagoneer SJ platform sported an advanced overhead cam straight-six engine and offered features unheard of at the time in any other mainstream 4WD vehicle, such as independent front suspension power steering, automatic transmission, a factory radio or air-conditioning.The Wagoneer made its debut seven years before Land Rover launched its Range Rover in Great Britain and 24 years before that upscale marque appeared in the US.For 1984, AMC replaced the SJ-body Cherokee with the all-new, smaller and more fuel-efficient unibody Jeep Cherokee (XJ) but high demand prompted the company to keep the old SJ-body Wagoneers in production.The Wagoneer line saw consolidation with the end of the 'Brougham' model, while the 'Limited' was renamed the 'Grand Wagoneer' and, in mid-1984, Jeep introduced a less expensive version called the Wagoneer Custom, without the simulated woodgrain exterior. The Custom had steel wheels with hubcaps, standard equipment was pared down, and it had part-time four-wheel drive. Despite its lower price, sales were poor and it was dropped after 1984.The Grand Wagoneer remained "the gold standard of the SUV market" and from 1985 it would continue in one version using the old SJ-body until the end of the Grand Wagoneer production under Chrysler. An improved handling package was introduced in 1985 that incorporated a revised front sway bar, gas filled shock absorbers, and lower friction rear springs.Competition to this Jeep in 1985 included Chevrolet's K5 Blazer, Ford's Bronco, Dodge's Ramcharger, GMC's Jimmy, Plymouth's Trailduster and Toyota's Land Cruiser.This car is currently located at our facility in St. Louis, Missouri. Current mileage on the odometer shows 72,253 miles. It is sold as is, where is, on a clean and clear, mileage exempt title.
