- This is the Jeep Wagoneer that Jeep will be taking to the Eastern Jeep Safari. It started life as just an old kind of beat up old Wagoneer. and it's been fully restored and upgraded. It now has under the hood instead of an in-line six.
It has a 5.7 liter V8, and it's coupled to a four-speed automatic transmission. It has Dana 44 axles front and rear with locking differentials. Inside, it has an oxblood red leather interior, which features the original bench seats. Has a nifty kind of wicker style roof liner, and it's all painted in what they call mintage green. And the green thing continues with the windows which are finished in a Coke bottle green color.
