"SALE PENDING-THANK YOU!
.
Grand Wagoneer by Classic Gentleman Hunter Green Metallic (Or any color of your choice) Frame off restoration undergoing mechanical and cosmetic works with estimated completion in the first quarter of 2027 Reserve Now as our available and in production restoration pieces continue to be complete sellouts year in and year out. Please note all the images shown in the photo array are from a prior restoration, Hunter Green Metallic. And remember, there is still time to select any color you wish.

This 97,500 true low mile Wagoneer just might have the most beautiful story of any we have ever restored. The phrase Final Edition is commonly used to describe every 1991 example but there is the final model year and then there is the final Grands produced in that final year.

We purchased this 91 from her original owner, Virgil. He knew the Grands production run was drawing to a close and so near the last day possible to place a factory order, he went down to his local Kansas Jeep dealership and special ordered his Grand Wagoneer. Thankfully, he ticked the Hunter Green Metallic box.

Virgil being Virgil, from that first day of ownership, he tucked away the original owners manual, warranty booklets, Jeep Road Atlas with a road map of all 50 states, along with the original window sticker. They were all carefully tucked away inside the dealers leather document folder.

The dealership rang Virgil when the factory shipping truck turned up and he raced down to the dealership to watch her roll off the truck in July of 1991. When they raised the hood, written in white chalk on the hood insulation was 4 to go till the end of the line. The Grands vin sticker on the door frame displays a build date of 6/16/91. The last day a Grand Wagoneer was reported to roll off the Jeep assembly line was 6/21/91.

Virgil owned a pharmacy that was just around 1 mile from his home and he drove the Grand there daily. He had graduated from pharmacy school in Wyoming and Virgil and his wife would often take the Wagoneer on road trips back there, reliving their youthful experiences. Together, in their coveted Hunter Green Final Edition, they climbed every paved mountain road in Wyoming and Colorado. (And to hear him tell it, these were some of the best moments of his long life). Back home, he continued to drive this Hunter daily for his short jaunts to his pharmacy, and then around his town, right up to the time we acquired it from him, in 2026.

Bittersweet is an understatement to describe how Virgil felt when this Wagoneer left his driveway for the last time. This Hunter was right out of central casting and recorded so much of Virgil's life. He sold this Final Edition to us with a measure of peace in the knowledge we will be bringing it back to her former glory in the hope she will find another Virgil, another lifelong love story that spans another 35 years.

Carfax confirms the 97,500 low miles clicking up nice and slow over the years (averaging just 2,700 miles per year), no accidents displayed on the Carfax and lifelong registration in the state of Kansas.

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 detailed document files that 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 cant 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 dont have the un-excitability and tolerance for that, then let us say to you candidly, dont 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.
