How to Buy a Restored Jeep Grand Wagoneer

The Jeep Grand Wagoneer is an American Classic. Although the last "Woody" rolled off the assembly line in 1991, there are some real gems available today from boutique restoration shops around the country. If you want to own what some call the "orginal SUV", help is on the way.

Things You'll Need

  • Cash (lots o' cash)
  • Appreciation for classic cars
  • A Penchant for stopping at every gas station (this is no Prius)
  • Be honest with yourself about your desire to drive a car that is at least 17 years old. While these were the first luxury sport utility vehicle, they are certainly a bit rougher riding than your Lexus 400H

  • Do research online to find a few of the best Grand Wagoneer restoration guys in the country. I'd suggest checking out

  • Get ready to dig deep -- a completely restored Woody can set you back $20,000-$35,000 depending on the age and mileage.

  • When the car arrives (they often ship door to door) grab your family and take a drive around town. The Grand Wagoneer is a piece of true Americana and will turn heads all around town!
