This is a 1977 Jeep Cherokee 401, the RARE "Z" CODE. It runs and drives. Original gas tank has old fuel, so it currently runs off of an auxiliary gas tank. It drives nice and straight down the road. I bought it from the original owner, still have the original title and bill of sale from 1977. Original owner says engine has about 20,000 to 22,000 miles since rebuild. Motor was not bored out, just freshened up. Complete head work, rings, bearings, etc. Quadra Trac chain replaced by previous owner. Used in the mountains of Montana for deer hunting and fishing. Has a 1979 front grill on it because of a deer accident on a trail. Passenger side door window needs a bracket replaced, and the door panel parts are off but are included in the Jeep. This would make a great restoration project for any Jeep collector, but it runs and drives great right now. It has an Edelbrock 750 carburetor. I have the original Motorcraft 4350 carburetor that goes with the truck. Some of the wiring should eventually be replaced in the engine bay because the wires are getting old, but they still work. The body is rusty. The chassis is excellent. Previous owner used it up until I got it. Clear title. If you're an AMC Jeep collector, you know how hard these 401 Cherokee Jeeps are to find. Original owner bought this as a stripped-down Jeep. The only option he wanted was the big motor and air conditioning. This is not a Chief model or an S model. This is a plain Jane with a 401, which is virtually unheard of. Almost all the Cherokees are Chiefs or S models.
