@@JeepCherokeeful I was replying to Scott. However, I love my 84 Grand for road tripping. Not fast or made for the twists by any means, but the most comfortable road tripper I've ever owned. I'm way over cleaning mud off the undercarriage or dealing with excessive rust on American steel. Not gonna off road it in Moab or the mud. It is pretty clean. Though, Black bear pass would be a bucket list item to drive down.
@@derelict_wandererMy Coyote powered F150 works great for Alaskan road trips, I’ll stick to that. No need to be concerned about parts availability and it’s more “reliable” and it’s my daily too;) and with ABS and stability control I know other family members are safe driving it. Plus it can easily tow 5,000 lbs over all the Alaskan mountain ranges.
I worked on that line , i helped frame out the cab and the box The cab was framed out on the same carousel as the wagoneer sides . And the sub assembly of the doors. The carousel was on the first floor , the box on the 3rd and the doors 3rd
I inherited a '64 Wagoneer from a friend of my Dad ,when I was in high school ('70). Living in So. Nevada, it allowed me and my buddies to roam the desert in search of adventure and trouble. The old six was okay and did the job, but in auto shop class we modded a stock 289 out of a wrecked Mustang into it. Had to use a bigger radiator also. I drove that thing until until 1976. I sold it and bought a wrecked surplus military M-725 ambulance. Did a restore and customized the rear, used that for many camping, hunting, and fishing trips for many years.
In the UK we had a 1979 Cherokee S , 4 door , 360. Loved that car , it’s the one car we had that our kids all remember, with 4 kids , the dog and all our camping gear in the back. It had a lovely sound , and terrible gas mileage 😀. Drove it around on the uk army tank training ground at Salisbury plain one weekend. Wish I still had her now 😔
I recently acquired my late Uncles 88 Grand Wagoneer. Truck has been stored since 1999 when he passed and it was the first Jeep I ever rode in and made me an enthusiast and hardcore off-roader ever since. Once spring hits I'm going to return the car to its former glory with a partial restoration and make sure everything works as it should, but keep the patina like how he drove it around. I'm gonna take the family everywhere in it. Can't wait. These are the best looking Jeeps ever produced
I have a 90 Grand Wagoneer. Got it 6 years ago... many issues with it.. but its mint now.. daily driver.. people ALWAYS stop me. To look at it.. take pics of it.. tell me stories how they grew up with one. Or what not. Im the only one in my area that has one. Im working on getting a 76 Jeep j10 long bed here soon. Also have a 5.9 Limited Grand Cherokee
I did also friend of mine had 3 of them though the 90's we took one put a lift on it and 35" tires replaced the carb with a TBI FI system it doesn't stall on hills about 5 years ago. We took it to a car show some guy said we ruined its value because it wasn't bone stock. It's a jeep not a station wagon I told him.
I used to know a guy that owned a 72 Jeep Woganeer when I was young and part of the Staten Island 4 Wheel Drive Club. That Wagoneer went everywhere with just street tires. I used to own a Scout II that also was a tank that went everywhere.
I remember driving my boss's Jeep Grand Wagoneer over 100 miles one time, and to this day it was the most comfortable ride I have ever driven. This wasn't long after I had a terrible back injury, and I fell in love with that Wagoneer.
Agreed. I have back issues and can go about 3.5 to 4 hours between rest stops in it. By then, the old girl needs a drink anyway. Hope to add lumbar bladders and butt warmers in the future to mine. Wife's car spoiled me on the butt warmers on a cold morning.
The Grand Wagoner has been “ The Big Thing” since mid 80’s And it has never stepped down from that status among the have “MORE’s” they still have them in their garages at their beach hours or their farms. It’s the sixth car at their third house.
I was strictly a muscle car guy. Grew up in the used car world and Cadillacs were our bread and butter. Had the chance to drive a new 85 grand waggy. I was beyond impressed. Caddy comfort. Great driving and an excellent ride especially for a 4x4. It was the only new vehicle I would have considered in 85.
Man. I've been cool all these years and didn't even know it! Fell in love with the Grand Wagoneer in the early 80s when a buddy's dad would take us out duck hunting in his '85. Bought one years back for peanuts and restored it. Not quite to Bronco level of resale (will never sell this pig) but have had some fun conversations at the gas pump, around town and on the trail.
My dad had 2 Cherokees back in the 80s and I’ve been obsessed with them ever since I was a kid. The main issue is finding ones that haven’t been turned to Swiss cheese from rust.
I sure hope the Gen 2 (96-02) Dodge Viper GTS is on this list. Not only has the car had numerous International Motorsports accomplishments but is one of the purest analog driving experiences available. They are moving up quickly in the recent market. Would love to see Magnus behind the wheel of a proper Viper!
Oh that is a beautiful FSJ. I’ve got the same year Grand Wagoneer, though that one is in far better shape than mine... Hearing that thing run and watching it drive brings back memories...
Here in the UK I have an 83 Cherokee (Laredo) WT. Inhereted from a friend who passed away. Literally "one of a kind" as it is the only FSJ, of that year still registered with DVLA (UK DMV). Also Uber rare as it is properly converted to RHD, instead of the chain drive conversion almost all the UK FSJ's had. Aluminum bumpers, not the nasty chrome plated steel bumpers. Sitting on my driveway, waiting for a body shop to be brave enough to take it on (and the lottery win to be able to pay for the work!).
I worked on that line in 85 86. In the body shop , i operated a host that picked up the bodies put them on a carrier on the 2nd floor walked down 30 feet where the 3rd floor host oper. Would send down his hook up for the body and i would hook it up then he took the body to the 3rd floor and i would go back to my host to pick up another one. The beginning and the end of the 2nd floor line. Then the line shut down for good to which i went to a different line at Jeep. First worked on CJ7 line then the Wagoneer
All this series is accomplishing is making the coolest cars and trucks from the past unobtainable for the average joe and sending the platoons of flippers out to gobble up the remaining salvageable examples. The flipper's only "enthusiast" longings being 6" long pieces of sturdy green and white paper. To be fair though, the market for the cars featured so far have already been under attack from the piranhas for some time.
@@ZeGermanHam I agree, like I said. Wagoneers on BaT have been ridiculous for a while. I wouldn't put it at multiple years though...maybe 16-18 months. But the reach of these videos really "cleans out the nooks and crannies" so to speak, and incentivizes "polished turd" offerings. What has happened to the Land Cruiser market (along with a large "Prepper" push) is truly offensive. At least to those of us that have been enthusiasts for decades and are of more "blue collar" means.
The fact that Wagoneer hasn’t been “reissued” as such, is such a squandered opportunity! A modernised, revisiting of this classic would have to be huge success.
The problem is that a vehicle that looks anything like the original Grand Wagoneer will not meet current vehicle safety standards for occupants and pedestrians, not to mention CAFE standards. The Wagoneer was introduced when JFK was president and like most cars of the day the only safety features it had were the sheer amount of steel that was in it and the driver's abilotu to avoid a crash. Back then gas was 30 cents a gallon so the fact that it only got 8-10 MPG didn't matter much. I think seat-belts were an option when they first came out in 1962 and became standard equipment in the mid 1960s. They didn't get headrests to prevent the driver or front set passenger from getting a whiplash until 1984. None of them ever even had a driver's side air bag, much less passenger airbags, side curtain airbags, etc.
They've been restoring these for a few decades getting crazy money for them. If anything they've come down in value where an average guy can find albeit a rough one for a fair price. The beauty is they made them forever and most parts interchange with different model years.
My first car was an 85 Grand Wagoneer; I loved it so much! I hate that my dad sold it (even though he replaced it with the almost equally amazing 98 Durango).
FIAT JEEP should concentrate on Quality while the Jeeps look cool forget reliability. The old AMC strait 6 was bullet proof. The new ones are endless money pits 🥺
That straight 6. 4.0 was a great motor had one in my 87 Commanche made on the same line as the Cherokee . I even worked on my truck on the line Black with black int.
Purchased a new 1977 CJ-5 with that inline 6 and a three speed in Illinois, sold it in Homer, Alaska in 1983 with 125,000 on the clock. Saw it in 2014 In Homer with its third owner. He emailed me in 2017 on the Jeep's 40th birthday to say it was still running strong. Over 300K and no major drive train work. He has done some sheet metal repairs but it was still on the road. Heading back to Homer this summer and expect to see it again . . .
My uncle had a 85-86 Grand Wagoneer with the 304 V-8. It was a cool cruiser. He always has owned some cool vehicles. I wish he still had it. Now he drives Porches, so Magnus would probably get along with him real well. A buddy of mine just bought 90-91 G.W. It's beautiful, nice blue paint with that awful (awesome) wood grain. I want one, but nice ones have gotten too expensive.
Love this.. I have a 1986 Grand Wagoneer, Id love to do the same to the underpinnings of mine expect on air bags for cruising and off road capabilities. Id wanna keep it stock looking however and maybe even the engine and trans of course adding fuel injection etc
Welcome to the party Magnus. I’ve enjoyed your progression with air cooled Porsches. Very interested to see what direction you will take with a Wagoneer. As I’m in the process of refreshing one I would caution you that it’s very difficult to decide what to and not to do to the truck. It’s a slippery slope. Keep us posted.
Man my Dad had one of these bad boys in all white. I remember driving up to the country in the back with that window down. Can't believe my older sibblings sold it.
I was on a search for a older 4wd and I had it narrowed down to a 3rd or 4th gen Bronco or a jeep Waggoner of any vintage but a 1990 Bronco 4.9 straight six with a manual transmission ended up in my garage but I still dream of a Waggoner.
There is one in my town - which is, by the way, the wrong side of ocean - and it is perfect in all its aspect and would buy it in a hearbeat (ever if gasoline rates 1,60 Euro/litre)
To know the jeep Wagoneer, or jeep anything really, you need to talk to Doug (uncle Jary ) from D&E in the garage. This man breaths jeep, Nice job with the subject matter!!!
Need to fix that brake light on the lime machine. Hard to not see just how ahead of their time these things were.....surely, you could easily buy either one of these with the modern engines etc....Classic....keep your new junk...Superb video.
I had a bunch of these! they are built like tanks.supension kinda sucks though very slushy lots of body roll and the last carburator used in the us on a production car or truck!
I am a little disappointed. The Crysler executive didn't even mention that it was the 1st shift on the fly 4 wheel drive. Didn't mention the beautiful leather and corduroy interior. Didn't mention the rarity of the vehicle. Didn't mention the extremely comfortable ride and steering. He didn't even know what year the Wagoneer came out! Wow!
This is awesome channel, like history, modify version n new version of Grand Wagoneer👍 Magnus having been to Australia do you think Holden WB ute or any other Aussie car/ute/wagon stands out that Americans could have wanted?
8:31 I thought those two in the middle were some sort of kia or something like that, had to rewatch because I couldnt understand. The fact is that they dont look like jeeps of any sort. You can identify a cherokee, grand cherokee butt even today. But those two were generic small suvs haha
Really lovin the new format of Hagerty. It’s now an enthusiast channel. Love it.
did they pay you?
What was it like before? I'm still kinda new to the channel
If Jeep had a retro line like that Wagoneer, then I'd have one or two in my drive. I really like the minimalistic aspect of that Wagoneer.
But Jeep isn’t that smart;( they’re a one trick pony.
You can have one. Just get an original. Find one that is rust free though. Then do the rest up how you want.

Magnus is the exact opposite of what you think a British Porsche builder would be.... and that makes it even better. The man is a genius.
He is "down-to-Earth" in his way of being and that reflects on his business. This guy's a legend.
@Max Maxsson and quite possibly a lot younger than he looks….
I see it has the period-correct sagging headliner....Very 80's.
...and got the single working brake light correct too!
Don't forget they didn't show the rear window going up either

Selling I would say))
@@extraBash lol that too
That's how a SUV should look like. So nice. Cool.
Buying one of these and taking a cross country road trip is something I really want to cross off of my bucket list.
Always been one of my favorites, and this green example is absolutely amazing.
Just goes to show that old styling combined with new technology can add up to awesome.

@Lookup2Wakeup Post and rail. No picket palings to be seen anywhere.
I love the jeep outlaw!
International Travelall. I believe was the idea.
Brooks Stevens was the designer. Look up the Wagonaire. It is an evolution of the Studebaker wagon design he did.
I like it just because it’s not a Wagoneer. just because vehicles are made famous on TV can’t convince me to buy one.
It's fully looks like russian "Volga" GAZ2412
My family had one after the other after the other. Every three years, there was a new one.
Beautiful
Man i wonder what is the song that is in the intro
You can really tell this guy is on Chrysler's payroll
So do you know Magnus??
There is one in my town - which is, by the way, the wrong side of ocean - and it is perfect in all its aspect and would buy it in a hearbeat (ever if gasoline rates 1,60 Euro/litre)
Enjoying the content, but why 1080p and not 4k?
Great video!
i would buy that concept '68 - wow
"Eco-sensitive"! LOL! Code for cheap/inexpensive dress-up. Still, it worked! Great vehicle. But I don't think Clark would have driven a 4x4.
hey Guy´s...great story and...a beautiful car.
Made for the Griswold, lol. I named my 1990 Jeep Grand Wagoneer Griswold a long time ago when I got it.
Skip to 8:55 for the green Jeep
IFSJA back on the dial-up anyone?
Got a brake light out!
just WOW. it's beautiful. i wanna buy one.
It's a Master piece retro design, but no body notice the left side damaged 💡!
To know the jeep Wagoneer, or jeep anything really, you need to talk to Doug (uncle Jary ) from D&E in the garage. This man breaths jeep, Nice job with the subject matter!!!
Need to fix that brake light on the lime machine. Hard to not see just how ahead of their time these things were.....surely, you could easily buy either one of these with the modern engines etc....Classic....keep your new junk...Superb video.
I had a bunch of these! they are built like tanks.supension kinda sucks though very slushy lots of body roll and the last carburator used in the us on a production car or truck!
I am a little disappointed. The Crysler executive didn't even mention that it was the 1st shift on the fly 4 wheel drive. Didn't mention the beautiful leather and corduroy interior. Didn't mention the rarity of the vehicle. Didn't mention the extremely comfortable ride and steering. He didn't even know what year the Wagoneer came out! Wow!
This is awesome channel, like history, modify version n new version of Grand Wagoneer👍 Magnus having been to Australia do you think Holden WB ute or any other Aussie car/ute/wagon stands out that Americans could have wanted?
Old news, Jay Leno has been here done this already. Featured on his channel ages ago.
8:31 I thought those two in the middle were some sort of kia or something like that, had to rewatch because I couldnt understand. The fact is that they dont look like jeeps of any sort.
You can identify a cherokee, grand cherokee butt even today. But those two were generic small suvs haha
