THE WAGONMASTER AND TWO SATISFIED CUSTOMERS (7 year old twin grandchildren) THERE'S ALWAYS ROOM FOR MORE GRANDCHILDREN!   THE WAGONMASTER STORY For a long time I have been so “taken” by this vehicle. I can honestly say I have never tired of the look and feel of the Grand Wagoneer. I was smitten the first time I laid eyes on the Jeep Wagoneer Limited when it was introduced in January, 1978. I thought it was the most beautiful rendition of a sport-utility vehicle I had ever seen…loaded with leather upholstery and power conveniences, plus the full wood-grain treatment and classic styling. I purchased one, at a cost of approximately $22,000. to drive every day as my company car. Being an agriculturalist/businessman, this fit perfectly. The following year Jeep came out with the new grill design and rectangular headlights, and I immediately traded. The new model included a padded vinyl roof treatment and a power sunroof. To me, this was an absolutely dynamite look! Little did I realize I would become so attached to this look that in 1991, when the final edition was announced (then selling at a cost of approximately $31,000.), I would soon become “the Wagonmaster” in an effort to continue this rolling work of art. I even went so far as to contact Jeep/Chrysler Corporation headquarters, to see if there was any chance they would bring the Grand Wagoneer back in the near future. That contact led me to an independent consultant and one of the chief designers of the vehicle, Mr. Brooks Stevens, who assured me the ballgame was over for the production of the Grand Wagoneer. He had tried without success to keep it going. Brooks was an encourager and at the time, he encouraged me to renew the later versions and offer those through our soon-to-be WAGONMASTER renewal process. He could no doubt sense my long-standing love affair with this vehicle. Recently I have become acquainted with David Nutting, a former associate and employee of Mr. Stevens, who also played a major role in the original design process. These two men were way ahead of their time in their vision of a fine, durable and beautiful SUV in the Jeep Grand Wagoneer. So that’s the way WAGONMASTER began. This business began to grow and it soon became my second career, springing from semi-retirement. During our first year we only bought, renewed, and sold twelve units. By the next year, I would commit a major portion of my “retirement life” to this endeavor. Later we discovered the Internet! And WAGONMASTER was off and running…at high speed. People all over the nation and indeed, all over the world began to contact us for their dream wagon. We had no idea there were so many people out there who were followers of this design and detail, and loved the “Woody” almost as much as I did. At WAGONMASTER we soon learned there would be nothing better than one of our high quality Grand Wagoneers, thoroughly renewed and brought to an extremely high standard. At the same time, we learned there was nothing worse than a high-mile, worn out and rusty wagon. So the expression of making “a silk purse out of a sow’s ear” doesn’t really work in this business. If we start with a good product, we’ll get a good end result. And that is what we try to do…start with a good one. The old original Jeep/Chrysler engineering team has been an inspiration and a big help to us in our mechanical upgradings, and in setting up our standards for excellence. There is simply no substitute for a low mileage, rust-free, WAGONMASTER-renewed Jeep Grand Wagoneer.

 

WAGONMASTER TRIVIA We have professionally renewed 1,350 Jeep Grand Wagoneers in our 16 years of business. THE WOODY LOOK In the 16 years Wagonmaster has been in business, I have noticed some interesting patterns among our buyers. One third of our vehicles have gone to architects and/or designers... over half of our customers are women buyers...and the Grand Wagoneers seem to have a special appeal to professional athletes and entertainers. These customers all want something a little different and out of the ordinary. It's known as "the Woody look." WATCH FOR THEM! It's been my pleasure to deal with some of the most interesting people in the world. Perhaps the heaviest concentration of Wagonmaster Grand Wagoneers is found on Nantucket Island (38 units and counting in a comparatively limited location). Other "hot spots" are southern Connecticut, Memphis/Nashville, Florida, the Carolinas, the New York area, Colorado and California. Our Wagonmaster GW's have found a home across the water also, in places such as Japan (12 units), Kuwait, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, the Netherlands, France, England, Italy, Portugal, Nova Scotia... and of course, with our neighbors to the north and south--- Canada and Mexico. YOU CAN OWN ONE! I am convinced the Jeep Grand Wagoneer was way ahead of its time...perhaps it still is...and with the new mechanical updates we do in our shop, you can enjoy a "like new" classic GW from Wagonmaster. I never tire of the look or the feel of this vehicle!   ...........THE WAGONMASTER

 

February 25, 2007 From: Richard Preis Dear Leon, I wanted to let you know how much I have enjoyed my new Wagoneer. It is as advertised and I could not be more pleased. Your name and reputation is EXACTLY what all have told me about you and your product. What a great vehicle. It is always nice to do business with people who do and say the right thing. Your wife, kids and grandchildren should be proud of Grandpa! Regards, Richard Preis Baton Rouge

Sept. 26, 2006 From Fritz Probst, Germany Dear Leon, Thanks for the hitch covers, we are back from Italy. We drove about 2,000 miles with our Grand Wagoneer without any problems and while going home, fully loaded going about 75 mph, we made about 14 miles to the gallon!! Enjoy the pics. Regards, Fritz & Christine

March 19, 2006 To: Leon@wagonmaster Re: Wagon run to Aspen area Well, Katie and I along with our new friend, Leo, are safe and sound after a mostly uneventful 21 hours of driving from Kerrville, TX to Snowmass, CO. We christened our new Jeep Wagoneer after Mr. Leo Reuther, the founder of the best Jeep dealership in the world.....The first night we spent in Fort Stockton, TX. Then we drove 12 hours through New Mexico, and ended at Durango, CO.....stayed at the fabulous Palmer Hotel. Drove Leo through some serious snow between Durango and Montrose. Three passes. Lots of snow. Roads closed to most, but not us. Then we took the back way over another pass and another snowstorm to get to Carbondale, then up to Snowmass. Lost one hubcap cover and all else is fine. Robert G. Clark CLAYCO St. Louis, MO

February 6, 2006 Leon, I wanted you to know I received my vehicle Sun. morning. Everything looks fine and it runs great. The only problem is I can’t go anywhere without spending ten minutes talking to people about the vehicle. Just kidding of course. Heads are turning in Indianapolis. My best to you, Terry This is from Terry Eaton, who bought an ’87 (unit #1141).

April, 2005 Dear Leon, It's been a pleasure doing business with you. I first checked your web page when I heard of Wagonmaster. In 1988 I bought a new 1988 Grand Wagoneer and made a terrible mistake trading it. For all these years, I have always wanted another one with low mileage and in excellent condition. After talking to you by phone, I immediately wired you the money for a 1989 GW, sight unseen. Your voice and pictures of the vehicle convinced me that I really didn't need to visit you before buying it. I have told everyone you did everything you promised me. I actually feel as if I have a brand new 1989 Grand Wagoneer. It is so sharp and clean. The 68,000 miles won't hurt a bit.You may use my name and phone number if someone in my area, or anywhere, wants to know about you and your nice cars. Bob Mullins Byrdstown, TN

February, 2005 Dear Leon, …..…Words cannot express how happy I am with the Grand Wagoneer you sold us. I truly have a very special vehicle resting comfortably in my garage. …… ..I’m glad I had the patience to wait for my perfect vehicle. Thanks to your efforts, I have a Grand Wagoneer to love for a very long time. I’ll be sure to send photos and will gladly be a reference for Wagonmaster……. Bob Maas Raleigh, NC

Greetings from Germany! January 21, 2005 Hi, Leon… Nearly a year has passed since I had contacted you for the last time, and much has happened during this time. Together with my father I had a really pleasing six week holiday in the New England states, using the maiden voyage of the Queen Mary 2 to New York for the transatlantic crossing. On Martha’s Vineyard and especially Nantucket Island we have seen so many beautiful Grand Wagoneers, it was a real pleasure. During a short trip to Minsk, the capital of Belarus, last February I met a nice young interpreter named Natalie, and we got to know and like each other so much that we have married two days before last Christmas. When she will have finished her examination for the doctor’s degree in German language, she will emigrate to Germany this summer to stay here forever. And my Grand Wagoneer has had the honor to be the vehicle which drove us to the wedding. It was looking great among all the Lincoln Limos of the other couples. Sadly we forgot to take some pictures…… …..All the best for you and your family and – of course – your business for 2005! You are doing a great job! Kind Regards, Klaus Schmitz Duesseldorf Germany (For more on Klaus Schmitz and his Wagonmaster Grand Wagoneer, click on our “Articles” page and view the pictures and article from FSJ magazine.)

Here at WAGONMASTER, we buy only the finest clean, undamaged, rust-free Jeep Grand Wagoneers. Then we will spend $5,000 to $10,000 (or an average of $7,000) renewing each vehicle - bumper to bumper, inside and out. The results are clear - you'll find only the best of the most copied SUV in the world today. To reach legendary status, one must develop a track record of impeccable performance unattainable by the many imposters, "wannabes" and ultimately, the also-rans. For it is Grand Wagoneer's drive that has made it a legend in luxury circles.

The spacious seating for six is offered by front bucket seats with six-way power adjusters and a folding rear seat. For safety assurance, three-point lap and shoulder belts for all front outboard passengers provide a secure environment.

We install rear shoulder/lap seat belts @ $295.00 per set, complete installation.

The Best of the Best!
