BEAUTIFUL 1414X

^Check this out! Bets on how much it sells for? I'm thinking at least $65k.

There are 2 major differences between new Wranglers and FSJs. FSJs are meant to be both utilitarian and capable, not just capable. FSJs are also rarely initially recognized as Jeeps by the average American.

That is pretty, and a rare bird for sure. Check out that "Special Order" door pillar tag and the Jeep clock mounted on the floor console with the 4-wheel drive 4 light indicators. That glove box AC.

That thing looks like it was parked in a garage since it was made and only driven once a week.

Yeah, if you look in the comments, the seller put in what info they got with it when they bought it. Apparently it was repainted and the carpet replaced after sitting in the AZ desert for a couple of decades. Even still, it's a beautiful truck.

I like how the people in the comments seem to think the leaf springs are too flat. Clearly they've not seen a stock Kaiser Wagoneer before lol

Yes, ride height looks normal. Designed to have a low COG. These Jeeps will go lots of places without any changes.

Unfortunately for the seller, neither them nor the people bidding on it seem to know that, so the price will probably plummet as a result of that issue.

It didn't plummet too far:
