I don’t think I’ve ever seen an XJ Wagoneer on CL. Awfully clean too.
Seems like the owner could do a lot better on BaT, but especially since it’s local, I’m not complaining. I’m intrigued by the “Too many Jeeps and cars and this needs to go” line, want to see what other Jeeps they have.
Only $4500. Intriguing.

Also this may be only the 3rd or 4th time I’ve seen this Jeep grille, which reminds me it’ s time to get back to !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .

$4,500? Will need new floors to replace the poorly done pans? Typical rust? 200,000 miles? Nope.
Too many cars and jeeps but is will to trade for a boat or a truck? Nope.
Why would the guy put all that cash in for new everything and then sell it? This screams rusted frame or something dire to me. Nope.
I’d call it CP.

What’s up with the missing rear bumper? Also, why is the transmission handle mounted backwards?

I thought something was off there, but since I’m so unfamiliar with autos I didn’t realize that. Weird.

Watched this again recently. XJ was pretty new at the time and well the first 2 minutes of the movie are a Jeep commercial …

I know there's the time+money issue associated with traveling for a car, but if you want a clean XJ, THIS is where most of them will be.

HFV has no HFV. But somehow has 2 motorcycles

I actually considered buying one of these once. Mostly because I love those stacked headlights. B it I realized I’d get bored with it pretty fast since it was way to nice to take offfroad

I didnt watch The Goonies as a kid, I was probably 25 the first time I saw it. It’s one of my wife’s favorite childhood movies. She got upset when I pointed out the product placement. Just shows that it’s nothing new. The Jeeps in BatmanV Superman, the Mercedes in Jurassic World, the Acura’s in Avengers. If there’s a product to place there’s money to be made.
The goonies couldn’t have been a high budget movie, I bet that Jeep ad paid for most of the production costs lol.

Ha! I love it when a car with over 100k miles is “low miles”. I mean... yes... if you drove is 15k a year and the entirety of its life it would have 300k miles but like... heh.
Still though, super clean!

It’s not Rusty at all because those hideous gold rims.

What is “Cruiser 54 throttle body mod” referring to?
If I had something like this, I’d rather have something like this:

Hello - seller here - the rear bumper was dented and I haven’t sourced a new chrome bumper yet - if I find one, it’ll go on w/ new brackets.
And yes - I noticed I put the handle on backwards after the pictures were posted...it’s the correct way now - but can go back for those double left-handed buyers. ;)
If you search all of CL for waggys - it’s priced accordingly. There are a handful for sale currently, none of which have had this amount of work done to them. It is OBO btw.
I’ll upload more photos to the ad soon, but to clarify, the driver pan is what is really needing replaced. Passenger side is good, and the “typical xj rust” is moreso what we’re used to here in the midwest - minor surface rust. It looks like somewhere along the line the driver pan was replaced but doesn’t look like it was nicely cut out and some of the original pan was left.

I hate you for bringing attention to this Jeep that is about 30 minutes from my home in Portland. My (pregnant) wife would certainly divorce me if I went and purchased it. Alas, I can still dream of this guy in my driveway.

So it’s a dependability mod and not a performance mod. Still: a good thing, no?

Yeah allows a little more airflow. New vacuum lines help a lot here, too.

I found it amusing the kids refer to it as “the ORV” as the term SUV hadn’t been coined yet.
Also you gotta admit Mama is pretty jalop — she drives a manual XJ!

Manual high option XJ with sunroof, leather, wheels, etc - even then that was a pretty cool rig. And decked out with the lights - unforgettable vehicle.

Man, reminds me of my 1990 XJ Wagoneer, just a lot less rust haha. 203k miles, while nothing to sneeze at is nothing for this thing. The Renix motor will run nice and smooth and incidentally has a great, if not finicky, fuel injection system. will cruise all day at 75 mph on 31" tires no problem! The NP 242 on these is real clutch and very useful for snowy roads (full-time 4wd) unlike your usual NP231 in most other XJ’s. A Trans Cooler away from yanking 5000lbs (with trailer brakes of course) If the wife would let me, I’d pounce on it in a heartbeat!

What other Jeeps do you have, and when might be a good time to drop by and drool over them?
I’m sorely tempted by your XJ, but it’s tough to know what’s coming next with the economy and my job. Strange new world.

It’s no David Tracy situation but if you’re around town or nearby - send me a message via that CL contact info. I updated the post since apparently CL never displayed the contact info.

Man, I love my XJs... I have an 85 with the Renault turbo diesel and an auto that I got for free(had to do some head work and redo the carpet and headliner) and a 98 we just got off CL in january fo r m f wife. It was $300 an d a new harmonic balancer. And tires. I wanted to take it in the Gambler but my wife said no.
