I've been searching for a year or two now for a Grand Wagoneer. I love the classic, old school look paired with the powerful V8 engine and 4x4. Totally different than other cars on the road these days. About 4 months ago I set a notification on my phone to notify me when one popped up on Craigslist. Every now and then one would peak my interest, and I would call or text about it. I even looked/test drove one about a year ago. Well on Friday, May 23, 2014 I found one about 20 miles from my house. I am far from a mechanic, so I asked a buddy of mine who knows a lot more than me if he would come check it out. It was turning over, but not running. The beast was pretty rough, but the exterior was straight, wood grain looked pretty good and it had a lot of original parts. So long story short, I bought it, and with the help of a couple friends and a big trailer we got it home and in my back driveway! Now...the journey begins.
