********** 1979 JEEP CHEROKEE CHIEF ********** THE 1979 JEEP CHEROKEE CONTINUED TO SELL WELL TO DRIVERS LOOKING FOR A SOLID, STURDY UTILITY VEHICLE WITH GREAT OFF-ROAD CHOPS. ITS TOUGH SUSPENSION, RUGGED FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE, AND POWERFUL, TORQUEY ENGINES MADE THE '79 CHEROKEE A TOP CHOICE OF 4X4 ENTHUSIASTS.TWO ENGINE CHOICES WERE AVAILABLE FOR THE '79 JEEP CHEROKEE. IT SHIPPED WITH A 258 CUBIC INCH, 4.2 LITER AMC INLINE-6 ENGINE; DRIVERS LOOKING FOR MORE POWER COULD UPGRADE TO A 360 CUBIC INCH, 5.9 LITER V-8 (THIS VEHICLE) PLANT WHICH PUT OUT 255 HORSEPOWER AND 380 LB.-FT. OF TORQUE.INTERIOR DESIGN WAS PRETTY BASIC FOR THE 1979 CHEROKEE. THE FOCUS OF THE MODEL LINE WAS PERFORMANCE AND MUSCLE, NOT STYLE (UNLIKE A LOT OF LATER SUV MODELS), AND THE NO-FRILLS CABIN REFLECTED THAT CHOICE. THE CHEROKEE CHIEF PACKAGE PROVIDED SOME DECOR UPGRADES IN ADDITION TO POWER STEERING AND OTHER POWER FEATURES, THOUGH. THIS VEHICLE IS A PERFECT START TO A GREAT 4X4 RESTORATION. ALL OF THE BODY PANELS ARE THERE AND IN DECENT SHAPE. THE HOOD DOES HAVE A COUPLE OF RUST SPOTS AS DO A COUPLE OF OTHER AREAS. NOTHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY FOR THIS VEHICLE. THE ENGINE RUNS ALTHOUGH NOT THE BEST. TRANSPORTATION CAN BE PROVIDED FROM SW FLORIDA/ FT. MYERS INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT. WE CAN ALSO PROVIDE ASSISTANCE IN SHIPPING THE VEHICLE ALMOST ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD. FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME AT ANY TIME FOR MORE DETAILS OR QUESTIONS. DAVE: (239) 250-2000 BUY WITH CONFIDENCE!!
