1977 Jeep Wagoneer Investment Grade 4WD Vehicle - Professional Restoration

Description

I am relisting this vehicle because the Buyer realized he did not have the money to pay for this vehicle after he purchased it on eBay. If there is ANY doubt whether or not you will be able to pay for this item within 72 hours after winning the auction or using the Buy It Now icon - please do not bid on this vehicle.
This auction is for a 1977 Jeep Wagoneer Investment Grade Vehicle with 29,243 original miles. A two year ground up professional restoration process is 99 percent complete - and I am now offering this Wagoneer for sale. I was planning to keep this Wagoneer as part of my own personal collection - but my son's college tuition takes priority. I have restored and sold several dozen Jeeps during the past 40+ years - and this Jeep Wagoneer is one of the finest vehicles I haveofferedfor sale. Several people have told me they feel it is one of the best Jeep Wagoneers they have ever seen. I am very well known and respected in Western PA for my Jeeprestorations- which are highly desired by collectors. I have an 900+ positive feedback on eBay since 1999 that includes the sale of many restored vehicles without a single neutral or negative comment. Several of my restorations have been featured in Jeep magazines. Several auto restoration professionals specializing in engines, wiring, interiors, paint, exterior, etc have invested their time and effort to painstakingly and meticulously restore this Jeep Wagoneer to its original condition. All of the mechanical work on this 1977 Jeep Wagoneer has been completed by by only Professional Certified Auto Mechanics. Only the highest grade parts and materials were used during the completion of the restoration process - with a great deal of emphasis and focus on the original factory colors andmaterials used by Jeepduring the assembly process in 1977. I could not complete the restoration of this Wagoneer because of my health - so most of the final details are being completed by Boyd's Antique Auto Restoration in Glenshaw, PA - who has more than 30+ years of experience restoringClassicCars. I would encourage any interested buyer to visit their website to see the quality of his work.

• Windshieldhas a couple very very minorscratches
• Dash clock does not keep accurate time
• Original rear electric window regulator has been replaced with brand new manual crank regulator and NOS Jeep chrome handle - because the old electric rear windows on Jeeps on known to malfunction

Please do not purchase this Wagoneer and then tell me that you are disappointed because you don't think you will be able to sell it for $ 60,000 at the next Barrett-Jackson auto auction - or that you saw one very similar to mine for sale on the Wagoneer World website for $ 55,000 that you feel may be a little nicer than what I am offering.
Please note there is an unrestored highermileageyellow 1979 Jeep Wagoneer currently offered on eBay for $ 29,500 - and a very rough higher mileage orange 1977 orange Jeep Wagoneer currently offered on eBay for $ 14,900 - to place things in perspective.
This Wagoneer is 39 years old - and not a brand new Jeep located on the showroom floor of your local Jeep Dealer.
The price that I am offering my Wagoneer is the equivalent of a fire sale price to pay for my son's college tuition - and if my Wagoneer does not sell at the end of my auction I will complete the very short list of items to finalize the restoration and list it with a $ 16,000 ( not $ 9,000 ) reserve after the New Year - which I quite confident I will get.
Jeep Wagoneers of this vintage and quality are rarely offered on eBay - so please bid with confidence and take advantage of this opportunity to invest in a vehicle that is appreciating in value like a rare coin or piece of art.
I will only accept a Cashier's Check, Money Order, Bank Wire or Bank Check as Payment ( as PayPal charges a lot for a little ) - which is due 3 days after the close of the auction - no exceptions.
No refunds and no returns.
Thank you
