[@amysimpson646]

You should have thrown a Christmas tree on top before bringing it home. Canadian Griswolds.😂 It's actually very cool.

[@nancyparis9975]

That is exactly what I was thinking when I saw his new vehicle! 😊🌲

[@ShaDi_DFW_TX]

I love it! I've wanted one of those since I was a teen and I'm 60 now. It's literally my dream car.

[@GeorgiaThriftNutz]

Me too

[@HooliganMomma]

Me as well!!!!!! I'm 60 and this was my dream car!!! Sigh....it's just Fantastic!!! xo

[@ammother]

Same!

[@277kne]

One without rust.

[@GeorgiaThriftNutz]

@@277kne yea I actually had a 76 for a short time and loved it but it was rough and it was really rusted.

[@rogerkaiser8691]

Good for you Alexander, you can tell this purchase makes you happy.

[@markstevens1729]

I'm with you Alexander, it's lovely! Beefy, with 'vintage' luxury and little to none of the late-80's design malaise.

[@GaryRobertonBoyes]

Some of the Classic Jeeps are costing major money in Good condition, the old wagoneers had a big following, and they are a desirable ride now. Cheers Alexander

[@lynnhunter8367]

Love that Jeep, including the wood paneling! Great purchase.

[@johnanchovie2b]

Love the woody paneling on those Wagoneers!

[@K.L.M.Online]

Me too! I wish manufacturers recognized the appeal and started making them again

[@PatWalden]

My first car was a '76 Pinto station wagon. It was red with wood grain side panels. So I think the wood panels are cool. Very vintage!

[@jhn146]

I love the wood tone side side paneling. I really enjoyed that about the beautiful 1976 Ford Country Squire that my husband and I bought new.

[@DMR1270]

Welcome to the Grand Wagoneer family. Proud owner of a Baltic Blue 89 myself. BJ’s Offroad is the best website for parts for full size Jeeps.

[@sporty196071]

There's a place in Texas that has parts for older jeeps,Collins brothers jeep. They also convert wagoneers to a hellcat drivetrain. They have a channel called coffee walk

[@littlsuprstr]

This one is a keeper. Great Jeep.

[@derekwalters4980]

I always wanted one of those Wagoneers. Back in the 1980's my Dad bought one, and I always thought it would be offered to one of us kids (adults) before he sold or traded it in. Sadly, in the mid 1990's he got in an accident and his insurance company totaled it and had it towed. I was completely bummed. What I loved best about that vehicle was that it turned on a dime!! They have a good look, I love them, and they carry a ton of gear. Can't wait to see you get her fixed up, and back to her lovely self again. Gotta have a radio!

[@LindaSesker]

You did good Alexander! Seems like a very practical car for traveling with the children too. Have fun.

[@zimnizzle]

I love those Wagoneers. Love love love. I’d buy it in a heartbeat.

[@bettesmith1117]

My father had a Country Squire wagon in the '70's. It was like riding in a boat. Loved it. Wood panels and all.

[@joycemcfee1829]

I LOVE it! I had a Jeep Cherokee at one time, and at 85, I would love another one. I can't remember what year it was. Country singer, Chris Stapleton, has a Wagoneer, too. Best of luck with this beauty.

[@AsphaltMan11]

Growing up, my neighbor had a 78' , metalic brown, loved that thing ! Nice find, would love to have one.

[@wagongirl3439]

Absolutely love Wagoneers, congratulations!

[@jevans6080]

I'm with your wife on wood paneling. My parents had a station wagon with paneling and us kids didnt want to be seen in it. I believe it was a Pontiac.

[@stevemancity8]

Looks great once you have sorted the small defects it will be a great daily driver

[@sherrysiemasz3186]

Like Melissa I do not like wood paneling, but I can appreciate it for its retro look.

[@bethcorey6022]

I gotta agree with Melissa, yuck, we had. A station wagon in the ‘90s love the 3 seats it had but that paneling was crazy to clean. The paint kept fading so we ended up with a gold SW with ivory panals, just ugly❤

[@cdh2328]

We had one of those Jeeps. Finally gave it to our son. We had the same problem with the interior roof cover.

[@martinebangs6520]

Hi Alex, I think it's in good shape for a 1989, I like it....good find....Take care...🍁 🍁 ON

[@simsjef]

Alex, I feel like you bought a piece of heavy medal car history which has an outstanding unique design. I love your quirks which makes for great various type episodes and I would love to see more of your upgrade work on this Jeep.

[@Patricia.resells]

Welcome to the Wagoneer life! I have been driving my 88 Jeep Wagoneer its entire life and it's still going strong at 276,800 miles

[@AmyRhubarb]

I haven't even watched the video yet, but so excited just from the thumbnail!! I grew up driving our family's Wagoneer, affectionately called "The Woody" by all my high school friends! Sure-footed in snow, survived three teens driving it, and we hauled family and friends all over the place in that thing. My Dad always called it "the old faithful Wagoneer". Great memories!!

[@sierrawave]

I certainly don’t think wood paneling will ever be popular on cars again, on an old classic like this I love it. I love Jeeps. I had to sell my 20 year old Liberty in 2020 and I miss it every day.

[@lindaromero1435]

I’ve always loved this model of Jeep!!

[@daleolson7205]

You got yourself a very nice vehicle for the winter. Know that winter tire technology has advanced incredibly the last decade so if it has older tires, replace them with dedicated snow tires and be amazed.

[@katharine5606]

I agree, the Jeep is quirky and cool! Wonder how the trip in the Wagoneer went with Melissa, lol!

[@NitrousDiecast]

My opinion is that you should keep this vehicle, i think it looks great!

[@CuriosityIncorporated]

Thanks! I’m going to try!

[@carrieatkinson9850]

Wow! that is the most organized pick n pull that ive ever seen!

[@kandiwolfe1125]

OhhhhMannnnn!! Whatta sweet ride this JEEP WAGONEER IS!! Thanks for sharing!! Peace to All..mmm😊

[@SGTMacBC]

I like it. I have always loved the full size Jeep trucks and SUV's. Back when they had the reputation of being tough, reliable vehicles.

[@countswing284]

Great find! Nothing beats a Jeep for Winter driving. That Brooks Stevens design is a timeless classic. Happy motoring! Cheers! 😎👍🚙❄🌨☃

[@richwhitaker1506]

A used '63 Wagoneer was my family's intro to 4WD,in 1969. Part of my driver's ed practice was in that brute . Handled snow well. Not so fun to parallel park. Enjoy this Jeep, Alexander. It's better than a dogsled.😊

[@l.mcallan7440]

You have to wave to other Jeep owners now! Cute especially if you wear the Clark Griswold hat while driving!🤣❤️🇨🇦

[@theresab4644]

We had one of these in the mid 90s. Our kids cried when we sold it. We had a lot of fun with it but it broke down so often. It was great for loading up dogs n kids for camping trips though. Enjoy your Jeep.

[@janellmichael2166]

I think the Wagoneer goes well with your truck. Besides, you have some extra room in the back for more treasure hunting. Blessings, Janell

[@sissydrago2567]

Love everything about that jeep! Nice find Alex!

[@HooliganMomma]

LOOK AT IT!! LOOK AT IT!! LOOK AT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! xo

[@r.k.2823]

Alex I love that truck and unlike Melissa, I always loved the wood on the side of a car. It brings back very nice nostalgic memories and I am glad you have it to use or eventually sell.

[@marionchase-kleeves8311]

Congratulations on the Jeep! My br. Worked for them while going to Purdue in the 70s. Good luck!

[@charleennobles3819]

I enjoyed this video as my husband and I had a Jeep Wagoneer just like this one.

[@rich40701]

My neighbor had one almost identical but it had dark tan interior. One time they were headed to Florida and the rear end went out. They put it in 4 wheel drive to get to the next exit and the wheel hub axe and all flew out leaving the tail of the Wagoner sitting on the ground. Luckily no casualties and after the wrecker dropped them off at home they hopped into their Mercedes and headed back to their vacation home in Florida.

[@CuriosityIncorporated]

Wow! Glad they were alright.

[@nancycornett9949]

Great vehicle! Thanks Alex!

[@lauralake7430]

So happy to see you put on a warm hat!!! I would guess the new cars have a problem with the computer.

[@bmwloco]

Those were all over my mountain town as pre-teen and teenage years. They bring big money now in the US.

[@pamellasmith2503]

Very smart to get a weather worthy car in your freezing climate

[@debilucas2989]

Nice Jeep... looks great!! Would have loved to have seen Melissa's face when she saw it!!

[@hansutrecht6555]

Ah, I would love to own one ❤

[@thequeenofnorway]

A vintage woodie jeep grand Cherokee is on top of my wishlist! I knew there was a reason I liked you! ❤

[@frankforrest1597]

One of my favorite vehicles I've owned. Keep up on the fluid changes and it's nothing to get 250k on them.

[@LifesWorldwideAdventures]

Thanks for the video 🙏

[@judyclennan1212]

Now you're talking. My kind of vehicle, especially in the north.

[@Yves348]

Congratulations for both the mattress and the vintage Jeep.💯 December 14. Cold and sunny in Quebec. (-14º Celsius) Best regards. 🌟

[@charskene714]

My son-in-law bought one of those and it was in really bad shape. He ended up reselling it. But he named it Grampy. He and my daughter name all their cars. As do I.

[@Matthew-4114]

Video starts at 4:41

[@nearly-blindbrian8372]

perfect for tailgating.

[@davec1704]

Congratulations on the Jeep,Love It

[@johnsilva9139]

Wasn't expecting a 4 minute ad for a mattress, but I guess that could be helpful if you need one. That Jeep Wagoneer looks great and seems to run fine. I wouldn't expect a 35 year old car to be running at all and be on the road. Nice purchase.

[@candacedolan4857]

Based on what you said about Melissa and her opinion of cars with wood trim, I would have loved to see her reaction. That car was very popular when I was a kid. I loved the looks.

[@jerseydevilscratcher3103]

Can't go wrong with that Jeep!!! Good purchase!

[@CuriosityIncorporated]

Thanks!

[@judyfaul8524]

Very cool car....love the old Broncos too!❤

[@joannebaer766]

I had a 86 and loved it

[@conleykat]

That Jeep Wagoneer and the Cadillac Eldorado brings back memories for me. When we were teenagers my best friend had a Cadillac Eldorado. It had a yellow hood, a dark brown trunk and one dark brown door and one yellow door. We went cruising every weekend in that car. LOL She also had for a little while a Jeep Wagoneer that was all brown with no fake wooden panels and it was also an older model than yours. That was over 41 years ago. We had a lot of fun in that Cadillac!! LOL

[@MarvelousActions]

Jeeps are forever usable you got the right vehicle...

[@Lstn2urmama]

Nice ...Tell us about FACTS ! Yr model and other facts .. the radio could of been a removable one ...motor size etc ?

[@ricoviselli]

Put two surfboards on top and a hula bobble doll on the dash and you will draw more stares and points than the GhostBusters ambulance, just sayin.

[@originalsusser]

Especially in inland Alberta during a brutal Canadian winter

[@janeysiegrist5061]

Lol 😂 The tap handle shifter cracked me up. I grew up with motorheads and ratrodders. I've seen some things.. tap handles for shifters was common.. brought me back some good memories 😂

[@dianab8889]

It's cute It's got character like you green truck known as a bakkie in South Africa.

[@macorourke2222]

Nice! I remember it brand new. I was 15 at the time. I always loved the wood panels on car's 😎👍♥️♥️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️💯

[@marionchase-kleeves8311]

14:16 Woodys were popular in the 60s with surfers in CA. The are super rare!

[@entropyfan5714]

I had a 1985 model; I recall it being kinda slow but very comfy.

[@donnietress4737]

It's awesome. I would have it painted. Wood paneling is gross I agree with the misses.

[@barbaraann7173]

Welcome to the "JEEP" family!!! It's a nice looking vehicle! Congratulations! Just what you need for winter driving in your area. I'm driving a 2008 Jeep Commander, purchased it after my Monte Carlo couldn't get out of my yard after a huge snowfall in 2010... best decision ever!!! Best always to you & your family, From BC

[@mmontagart]

Right out of the Preppie Handbook! Nice Jeep!

[@joejaffe]

I remember when these were everywhere and very cheap .. now I think there very cool .. how things change

[@1hollig1]

I love it!!

[@margaretcerchione2722]

Thank you - enjoyed!!!

[@phodough7201]

thoughts about jeep vs. ford p\u....personally i would think that the jeep with the rear seats down would have larger ENCLOSED area than the tounoe cover on the pu bed, loading , both have tailgates, the jeep will get better mileage than the ford in 2wd probably the same in 4wd, but it's 4wd..safer. room for the whole family when needed, the cool factor is about the same, value wise the jeep is on the way up ..p\u...not so much....i'm not a jeep fanboy and i love old p\u's , but i'd pick the jeep and sell the ford....great score eather way , love the channel . thanks Alex

[@AZJH8374]

Blindfold Melissa while you put her in the Jeep. Take her for a drive. Then get her reaction when she gets out! Lol. Great car!

[@CuriosityIncorporated]

That would be hilarious!

[@Vault57]

I love it. But know this, Jeeps have some design quirks that are headache makers for their owners. And the good folks at Jeep HQ seem to be happy with them because they haven't seemed to correct them. We had a 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo, which was in need of some TLC. We got rid of it, and I kick myself every time I think of that vehicle. I had finally figured out these design quirks just as we sold it to a pre-owned car company. So, look out for the passenger side exterior cowl vent. Dirt and debris will build up in this space under the vent louvers. This allows rain water and snow melt to overflow the rim of the fresh air intake pipe. Which inconveniently faces up and makes a direct connection to the passenger side interior of the cabin. You'll know it needs to be cleaned out after a heavy rain turns your passenger side foot wells into swimming pools. Then there is the black plastic condensate drain that makes a 90° turn through the firewall under the glove box. This has a foam seal that degrades and begins leaking condensate. Especially after the fitting becomes clogged from dirt and moldy junk often found in car AC drains. They have used this same setup forever, and you can't just remove a hose and pull the fitting to clean it out. About 15 years ago, my coworker was quoted $800 USD from a dealership to remove his dash and clear out the AC condensate lines. They said it was the only way to get to everything they needed to access. He said no. There is a cheaper fix. If someone has drilled a hole in that plastic fitting, you'll know they already tried it. Despite the issues, these vehicles keep going. The inline 6 cylinder engine was pretty reliable.

[@ToriLynnH]

That will be fun for the family.

[@pallahammer8997]

Awesome 4x4 id buy it if i was able to drive it here in the UK.

[@mashalena]

I love it!! I want one!!!

[@TheCopperbaron]

Awesome Jeep

[@CuriosityIncorporated]

Thanks 👍

[@julianned.6137]

The vehicle suits you! Enjoy!!

[@kpdvw]

A great score Alex! So much better than the modern over engineered, overpriced computers on wheels pretending to be a car! 4WD is super for winter/off road driving....!

[@kpdvw]

as another plus the coal car is gone....!

[@jeanettehammons2318]

I grew up with the wagoneers!

[@fellazvintageretro2675]

Cool jeeps always liked them. Got to be going up in money now. From Cardiff uk

[@AmyWhoLovesFlowers]

Super cute car! Browns and wood are in, did you know? Need that sunroof for 'Harry and the Hendersons' moments. I would love to drive this car. It looks in great shape!

[@arlenegariepy8957]

Your going to have to find Melissa a vintage sleep mask to cover her eyes if you want her to get in. lol ;) :) I love these vehicles and I would so drive around with a great big xmas tree on top all winter lol :)

[@johnstuby8036]

Thanks for sharing. My wife and I had the same jeep back in the day😂 only the merica version 😂😂 thanks for being as corcky as me

Sorry for the postal strike! Merry Christmas to you all. God bless you all and many prayers 📿 😇 🙏🏻 ✨️ ✝️ nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ and E Minister 🙏🏻

[@b.slocumb7763]

My grandpa had two of those from the 70s- first a green one and then a white one. We had to drive the white one cross country (from the desert through the southern US) one summer and the AC broke and we were dying from heat stroke and had to stop to get it fixed! My dad was not happy!

[@lesliejackson7133]

Looks great 🤗 Hope the mattress works for y'all. 120 days is a long try out LOL.

[@IamSnowbird]

We leased a Jeep Cherokee in 1999. I loved that car but they wanted too much to buy it when the lease was up. My favorite car ever was a 1984 Datsun Maxima. Had it for 8 years and it survived being rear ended.
