Hemmings Find of the Day: Wagoneeeeeeeer

Hemmings Auto Blogs (Free subscription) | 10/02/2009

What we love about this 1987 Jeep Grand Wagoneer is not that it’s stretched by several feet, nor that it’s actually a functioning limousine, it’s that it was done rather tastefully (we’ll grant the directional billet wheels): It looks like if AMC, in its last throes as a functioning company, built one of their junior [...]

By Paul Vazquez The Jeep Wrangler is the most suitable vehicle to use if you are planning to storm the very hot desert dunes and pave your way through murky forest trails.
