Grand Wagoneer by Classic Gentleman 1991 Spinnaker Blue Metallic

Vehicle Description

Grand Wagoneer by Classic Gentleman, internationally recognized as a leading buyer, restorer and seller of low mile excellent condition Grand Wagoneers, presents this sunroof equipped 1991 Final Edition Spinnaker Blue Metallic.

Our Spinnaker here spent her life in the southern and/or western states where she traveled just 99,360 miles, an average of just 2,900 miles per year. Southern heritage Wagoneers ensure a strong undercarriage and this example is no exception. The Carfax confirms the low miles, clicking up nice and slow over the decades with no accidents ever reported and all southern and western states of registration (Before our purchase for purposes of restoration). Add to that a power sun-roof, a very limited number are equipped with these, and one of the most sought after colors (SPINNAKER BLUE). You see why the words “special and unique” describe this Grand Wagoneer perfectly.

Even when this Final Edition arrived to us, and before our restoration, she was in beautiful condition.- Thanks in part to a couple decade past refurbishment by another nationally known Wagoneer restoration house. She has always been well looked after, without question.

Her restoration with us was completed just a few years ago. The works, that were previously carried out, are detailed in the restoration box below. Only 1,500 miles have been added since her finishing and she has just been fully serviced and refreshed by our team.

The restoration was commissioned by a former CEO of Liz Claiborne. Someone at the top of the fashion industry, who knows true style when he sees it. Spinnaker Blue finish, a hood ornament in front of you, wood siding surrounding you and a sunroof above you, its Supermarine, old boy!....And the best part is, even as "churched up" as this Final Edition Spinnaker is, it is never "shouty" in its presence. (So when your driving one of these, nobody hates you).

Why buy from a Grand Wagoneer specialist?

Our entire focus is on Grand Wagoneers and we know these unique vehicles inside and out. When you purchase a Classic Gentleman Wagoneer it has been thoroughly inspected and works completed by professional mechanics, some with over forty years of Wagoneer experience. We purchase fine example Jeeps from a variety of sources including other dealers and private parties. We are often told by the seller, “My Jeep is excellent and needs nothing” however, being in this profession, we know to expect and plan for a great deal of sorting. Remember the average age of these vehicles is over thirty years old and even with loving care many the cosmetics and mechanical parts have aged and worn accordingly. When a Classic Gentleman Grand Wagoneer arrives at your home, it is a special occasion, and the Grand will be in beautiful condition. Yes, our sales are as-is, but as you will see from our document files your Grand has been looked after carefully. Our goal is to see that the joy and enthusiasm of Grand Wagoneer ownership begins immediately with your purchase and that it will be there for years to come.

Still, and here is the most honest paragraph you have perhaps ever seen from a restoration house/dealer, in some ways these Jeeps were terrible even when they were new. Sometimes we wonder if automotive engineering was more of a hobby with Jeep executives. For example, a Grand Wagoneer was the very last vehicle produced in America still fitted with a carburetor. The factory installing an ancient artifact like a carburetor to these Grands is a perfect example of Wagoneers being more primitive than other vehicles of the same model years. Now we automatically upgrade and modernize each of our Grands with MODERN FUEL INJECTION, eliminating the troublesome carburetor and therefore also eliminating the next owner having to constantly hector his local Jeep service advisor to adjust the carburetor. But, in most every other way, we can’t change the method these were built by the factory. In many respects the manufacturer used outdated technology and manufacturing methods and as a restorer, we will always be compromised by that circumstance. Did you know you can remove the front grill from a final year 1991 Grand Wagoneer and behind it still see the round cut out holes for the 1963 Jeep Wagoneer headlights? Those are just two examples above to illuminate the discussion. Therefore, please understand you will do more maintenance and servicing of a vintage Grand Wagoneer than a modern piece, even one we have restored. That is just a truth, fellow enthusiast. If you don’t have the un-excitability and tolerance for that, then let us say to you candidly, don’t buy one. But let us also remind you that it is indeed that old school style and looks of a Grand Wagoneer that have made them so ever popular today.
