Rust! It gets us all eventually, even Californians. I mean, look at the rust on this otherwise-decent 1983 Jeep Wagoneer for sale on Hemmings.com – just look at it. I mean, really, look for it. I’ll wait. You can’t miss it. Serious. It’s right there, obvious for the world to see. This thing’s gonna fall apart any minute from the rust. Get your tetanus shot, boys! It’s just a shame that the tinworm has eaten up yet another good-running vehicle with so much potential. From the seller’s description:
The Good: 84,000 Original miles. 360 V-8, 4×4. Second owner. Original nutmeg interior in great shape with no tears. Carpet is in great shape. Runs great– new vacuum hoses, new ignition module, new battery, new catalytic converter, new fuel lines all installed 9/13. AC blows cold and was recently recharged. All electric windows and door locks work (passenger rear door lock tends to stick but does work; all others work great). Newer all weather tires (less than 3,000 miles on them approximatley 5 years old). After market moon roof (does not leak). Headliner is in excellent shape, no sags, stains, or tears. Original paint code is T (Navy blue), so it has been repainted.
The Bad: Dome light does not work (checked the wiring harness under the rug behind driver seat and wires look good). Tape player plays slow, but radio works. Clock only works when headlights are on (starts at 10:10 and keeps time after that). Scratches on the tailgate paint.
The Ugly: There is some rust starting to bubble on passenger doors and rear fender (see photos).
Overall: This is a very nice Jeep Wagoneer Limited, the last of the Wagoneer Limiteds before they became the Grand Wagoneer. Is it perfect? No, but with a little attention (body work and new paint), it could be as nice as a Wagonmaster rebuilt Wagoneer at half the price.
