Default Is my Jeep rare or mislabeled?

I have an 1980 Jeep Cherokee Chief. But most of the pictures I run into are of a two door chief... I have a 4 door. I've even tried to look it up and have only ran into one image on Google. It has the Chief head on the sides a 360 V8, 4 speed manual, manual locking hubs, and 4 doors. Is this a rare truck? Mislabeled? Or is it a common thing that I just cant find?

I was always told that with FSJs the 4 doors were Wagoneers and 2 doors were Cherokees so you may have one someone put stickers and such on or I could be completely wrong.

SJ Cherokees were originally 2-door (when introduced in 1974) but a 4-door model was offered from 1977 on, though it is much less common than the 2-door SJ Cherokee.

To confuse people even more:
FSJ Chief Heads on my XJ two door! All for good fun.
