Our example is in simply exceptional condition. It has indeed only driven a few times since its complete restoration. This was led by Icon and Daniel Van Doveren, founder of Jeep Heritage in the United States, a reference in the restoration of the brand's flagship models. The restoration work was of course carried out on the basis of a complete dismantling. The body was stripped back to bare metal and all the elements of the car were thus gone over, documented by a photo file and at high costs. In its white colour enhanced with wood veneer, this Grand Wagoneer is not lacking in style. Its 5. 9-litre V8 engine with automatic transmission ensures speed and comfort on all types of terrain. Its beautiful burgundy upholstery is in close to new condition and very comfotable. This is one of the last examples of this iconic American car. This car, SUV ahead of its time, belongs today to Artcurial SAS. It offers a chic and adventurous character to any collection. Such a model restored at great expense cannot leave us indifferent.
Auction estimate: €50 000 / 70 000 - No reserve
