1965 JEEP Wagoneer, Original Texas Survivor, 4X4 CHEROKEE
The Jeep Wagoneer is one of the longest running American truck designs ever! The iconic body style was basically unchanged from 1962 to 1991.
This 1965 is one of the earliest examples I?ve ever found, and its survived unmolested for 56 years.
A real Jeep collector will want this in the collection. Or….anyone wanting a classic ?grocery getter? will love this!
The body is in very nice shape. Its straight and very little rust. There is a small amount in the lower rockers.
The original 230 Tornado engine starts quick and runs really really smooth and quite. These engines were some of the first overhead cam motors seen in the U.S. in the sixties. Many mechanics didn’t know how to work of them at the time. But its a good motor. Its mated to the original automatic transmission that drops into gear smoothly and reverse nicely.
Even the rear window glass still works by hand cranking it! Very kool!
The truck needs a brake job, comes with most of the parts already bought. The original fuel tank needs to be cleaned. We?ve been running it on an auxiliary tank with fresh fuel.
