Hi Nick and others, I'm a newbie in Jeep and sadly in any forum such as this, so please bear with me. I live in Jakarta, Indonesia where Jeep population is a small number, unless you're looking to pick up the "OVER-PRICED" new models (think JK's U.S price x 3).

I came across an ad on the local web of a claimed to be 1978 SJ Cherokee, but when I compare with some web-found pictures, the rear tail light isn't the same (vertical vs. horizontal). Anyone can please help me identify the attached pictures?? Before I jump into a 2-hour flight across the country that is...

Much thanks

itsanxjthing, Just got a reply and correction from d owner: it's a 1975 Wagoneer, and used to belong to the UN's World Health Org. Sad thing is, the engine has been swapped w/ Toyota FJ's (lack of original parts down here)...The pictures do not have the wooden panel sidings as typical wagoneer would.

Nevertheless, think I'm in love already and plan to fly there anyway, see if the the metals are OK. If I were to buy new crate engine for it (in U.S), got any suggestion?? Wonder if I can buy aftermarket parts for them in the U.S.? Any reference?

Thanks Mate

Well if you need a motor for that beast. I would go with a 360ci. but I'm not sure what your looking at for fuel prices and a built 360 could really go through a lot of fuel and fast.
