The last of the 1970’s brochures is a brochure for the Wagoneer dating from 1979 and coming from Germany. Sorry, its all in German, obviously, but at least its visual enough to enjoy! And speaking of the visual, 1979 marked the year that brought a bit of a visual change for the front end of both the Wagoneer and the Cherokee in the form of a new single piece grille with horizontal bars and a swap to square headlights as well as a new more substantial aluminum bumper.
Couldn’t find a ton more of interest as regards this year so here’s a few option package prices. I always enjoy being reminded of how different they are from 35 years ago to what you could expect today.
The Cherokee S Package- $699
Cherokee Chief Package- $624
Cherokee Golden Eagle Package- $970
360 V-8 in the Cherokee- $274
A Turbo Hydramatic/ QuadraTrac for the Cherokee- between $396 and $549
Free Wheeling Front Hubs (Cherokee)- $105
Limited Slip Rear Diff (Cherokee)- $85
Bucket Seats With Armrests (Cherokee again)- $48
Convenience Group (Included remote control left exterior rearview mirror, electric clock, lights-on buzzer and intermittent windshield wipers...)- $83
Air Conditioning- $586 (!)
Power Steering- $226
Tinted Glass- $51
Roof Rack- $100
Tilt Steering Wheel- $76
Cruise Control- $105
AM/FM Stereo Radio- $241 (!!)
AM/FM/CB Stereo Radio with Tape Player- $367 (Wow! No 8 track?)
Enjoy and come back next week when we’ll get into the 1980’s with a more substantial offering! Check out the full brochure in the old jeep dealer items album here. Keep checking back for new t-shirt designs coming soon to the This-Old-Jeep.com online store.
