Default I bought a 85 wagoneer.

So, I went ahead and bought a second vehicle for when the Honda lets me down. Figured I might as well buy a offroad vehicle and something that can tow

The Wagoneer is a four door. It has power everything. Here are some modifications that it has:

Edelbrock intake manifold
Holley Carburator
Dana 44 front axle
33's
and some more. Ill update tomorrow. Its a 360 v8 4wd. Shit is pretty pimp, I like it. I will have pictures in the daylight tomorrow.


I have some questions.

What are known problems for these things? Are the pretty stout? This is my first truck, I'm more of a Honda guy! So this is a learning experience, also where can I get wood panels from or should I just remove them?

thanks, I'll upload the pictures of my rig tomorrow.

Structurally they are really stout. The only down flaw with them is their age so reliability can become an issue.

I don't know where you can get new ones but you can't take them off. That ruins its Wagoneerism.
