The 2022 Jeep Wagoneer is a big and tech-heavy three-row SUV that seeks to blend luxury and capability. There’s much to appreciate about it. Still, there is a nostalgic call to get back and relive the days of the past. This is why this 1970 Jeep Wagoneer is today’s pick on Bring a Trailer—which, like Car and Driver, is part of Hearst Autos. Bidding is open until March 11 for those who want to get behind the wheel of a 350-cubic-inch Dauntless V-8.
The Wagoneer was initially known as the full-size Jeep, which debuted in 1963. It was also the high-class Jeep, featuring many amenities unlike anything at the time. Power brakes, a high-end radio, and power steering were unthinkable for a rugged Jeep in the 1960s.
According to the listing, this Wagoneer was listed on BaT back in December 2016. Since that purchase, work completed on the SUV includes a new aftermarket fuel injection system, shocks, and suspension bushings and springs, including an oil change. As of the listing, the 350-cubic-inch Dauntless V-8 mated to a three-speed automatic transmission reads 56,000 miles on the odometer.
You’ll find plenty of accessories attached to this rugged 4×4. Want a roof rack? It has it. Need bumpers, rock sliders, and rear-mounted carriers? Done. [Slaps hood of Jeep.] This Jeep Wagoneer is absolutely ready for the weekend overlanding trip. Interested parties have until March 11 to bid on it.
