Tempus_Fugit Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 Good evening, I am a long time lurker, owned my share of MJ's and XJ's. Here is the newest member of my fleet. Sat for 13 years in a dry garage in KS until I removed it 2 weeks ago. Parked for unknown reasons. 2 weeks later I have it operational and roadworthy. I can't believe it sat on CL for a month at $800, but it did. Completely rust free, 130K. It is the most optioned out XJ I have seen. Check out the factory chrome tow hooks!

AeroNautical Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 That's awesome. I'd love to get a wagoneer someday. There's a cherokee around every corner, this thing just stands out. Great find.
ComancheKid45 Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 Awesome! $800 too, Wow thats amazing, Great find!
Keyav8r Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 $800.00? Really? You got the deal of the century!
87Warrior Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 Awesome find! Where at in KS was this gem stowed away? If it was out east I would be concerned about humidity induced under carriage rust.
ftpiercecracker1 Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 Lets here about these options. :D And $800 is simply an incredible deal.
GirsMJ86 Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 It is the most optioned out XJ I have seen. Does it have the sentinel fluid monitoring unit by chance? :brows: If so, I'd love to pick your brain about it since I have one to install in an MJ. Can't believe it sat on CL that long either. Great find though, I would have scooped that up in a heartbeat as well for that price. :thumbsup:
onlyinajeep726 Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 Now here's the real question... How's the interior and can I haz pictures of insides? :brows:
Biotex Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 Does it have the rear axle disconnect for flat towing? There is one of those in my town for $250, but it has the crappy V6 in it, and it is dirty as heck inside. No rust though. Nice find!
rmoore1031 Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 Nice find, looks like its in great shape. Are you on cherokee forum? There are a few waggys on there. I know that one guy is doing a nice restoration.
sinkrun Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 These thing are awesome I had one a few years back wish I still had it but it was very rusty.
Tempus_Fugit Posted April 30, 2013 Author Posted April 30, 2013 Where at in KS was this gem stowed away? - Wichita Lets here about these options. - AW4, PS, PB, PW, PDL, CC, Delay wipes, Delay lights, clock, Jensen sound, map lights, leather, rack, chrome strips in luggage area, clock, vanity and map lights, roof rack, the aforementioned chrome tow hooks, Does it have the sentinel fluid monitoring unit by chance? - How do I tell?

GirsMJ86 Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 That thing is clean. Loving the color combination. It doesn't have the sentinel system though sadly. If it did you would have the clock that is in this pic that lists all the fluids. http://comancheclub.com/topic/38469-fstrade-25l-4-wheel-drive-badges-oh/
dasbulliwagen Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 I pulled the Waggy front clip and doors of an 86 Limited Just like this one, but with the tan interior. It was Cash for clunkers and this poor thing was beautiful. I would have saved more if only I knew at the time what parts were more rare. At least part of it lives on in my MJ. I even still have the chrome Waggy emblems on the inside door panels! Nice find!
rmoore1031 Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 My 90 XJ Laredo has a few waggy parts. Wood grain dash bezel, leather head rests, and solid red tail light housings. My XJ already has the maroon interior too. You should sell me those tail light housings :)
Comanche County Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 The white on woodgrain really works on that ride. Looks great on the XJ platform. Nice find. The FSJ wagoneers had some funky color combos. The ZJ wagoneers were all absolutely hideous......I've got my eye on a local FSJ waggy that's blue on woodgrain...its a nice ride, but blue on woodgrain is no where near as easy on the eyes as the XJ white combo....http://hiltonhead.craigslist.org/cto/3783116124.html

xjrev10 Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 Awesome. Have to get you in on our future MN meet n greet! Don't ask me when... Ha How far did you pull it on the trailer with the CRD? How'd it do?

How'd it do? Pulled it back from Wichita, KS on a Uhaul. 600 miles, 17mpg, no problem, trans only downshifted twice the whole trip.
