What a radically cool Grand Wagoneer!!!

I was driving from Evanston to Mundelein today. I saw a maroon '89-91 Grand Wagoneer on used car lot for sale. It was in a near pristline condition!! It's at North Shore Nissan dealer. That dealer is right off 41, just South of Park Avenue. It's South of Denny's and Target which are both off 41. It's in Highland Park.

Just FYI if you are an Illinois/Wisconsin/Indiana resident and want a pristline Grand Wagoneer.

Nissan Dealer, not Ford. Must have been a trade in or was bought from an auction?

http://www.northshorenissan.com/

I tried looking at used car inventory and it wasn't there. Maybe it's a new arrival. I think their phone number was 847 433 7900.

Worth check out if you have a lot of $$$

I think the brow is a Lutz or whatever the name brand is. They were an aftermarket thing like on pick-up trucks. I think they used to make one for the waggy.

Nice looking rig, but I think that is a repaint. Tough to tell in the pics, but the colors inside and under hood do not seem to quite match the outside. Others would know better than I, but that does not look like the red/burgundy colors that jeep offered.

Has 151k miles and they want $13K! That is a tall order.

I'd be willing to bet they gave the owner no more than $2k for it.

The scary part is, if sold to someone from the north shore, they will probably get close to asking price for it.

Knock the wood crate off and put some indian stripes on it and maybe it would be radically cool.




Here is a couple others with the Lund dohickey on them seen around Ouray...

The visor is really cool all it needs now are the dingleberries around the windows and a musical air horn


The visors that Flint posted don't look as bad. The visor on the one for sale just looks wrong.

13K maybe they spent 10K on the cleanup and detailing

simply looks too good to be true

that ersatz-brow looks too----eh---eh---eh southsidish to me.

and a full factory warranty at this time must be somewhere on the deep side of minus zero

13k on a 23 year old truck with 151k on the clock.

I don't think so.

I'd say the price is right on...after all, it does have the rare 360 c.i. 6 cylinder engine. (watch the video if you don't believe me)
