For Sale by Original Owner
1977 Jeep Wagoneer
SOLD $6,0000.00 SOLD
I see lots of rough looking
Wagoneers that don't run or need "just a little" work, this
isn't one of those. This '77 Jeep Wagoneer was my daily driver until recently.
Runs perfectly, drive it home today! Street legal, tags renewed and good
until 01/01/2025.
My ‘77 Wagoneer is in
good condition, meticulously maintained as close to stock as practical.
The Jeep has ZERO emission control systems. NO catalytic converter (stock
configuration on this model). Engine PASSES Arizona Emissions Test easily
(see below).
All service and repair records from 1978 included.
Minimal rust and solid frame. I moved to Tucson, Arizona in 1978, 45 years
in the desert has preserved the body, it’s a dry heat. The Jeep
has never been in an accident although it has the appropriate amount of
small dents for a 46 year old vehicle. Drive as-is and go 4-wheeling without
fear of damage or scratches. This Wagoneer will go anywhere and climb
anything, the stock 360 V8 engine, Quadra-Trac automatic transmission
with the 2.57:1 Borg-Warner BW1339 low range reduction unit will get you
there and back in style.
Original Owner’s Manual and Technical Service Manual included. The
Technical Service Manual has every specification, procedure and tool needed
to diagnose, service and repair every part including engine, Quadra-Trac
transmission and transfer case.

The photos below
were probably taken during the fall and winter of 1977,
of course one of the first things to do with a brand new 4-wheel drive
Jeep is to drive it onto a frozen lake.
The hill climb
was in the fall of 1977. The Jeep had the stock white wall street tires
but would still climb like a badger.
Back in the
'70's the co-pilot was in charge of the beers, as you can see Jack was
doing a fine job.
