"  Jeep&amp;#039;s reputation as the workingman&amp;#039;s Land Rover began nearly five decades ago with the 1963 Grand Wagoneer. Until 1991, the GW&amp;#039;s last year, it cemented Jeep&amp;#039;s credibility as a luxury 4WD manufacturer. Few know that better than Matt Liddane, the current Grand Cherokee&amp;#039;s vehicle line executive and the owner of the 1989 Wagoneer pictured here.  With 90,000 miles on the clock, Liddane&amp;#039;s rig feels remarkably tight. For sure, the solid rear axles\u2014suspended by leaf springs\u2014ricochet off larger bumps, but overall it&amp;#039;s quite plush and the interior is luxurious. Various engines powered the GW over the years, but by the late &amp;#039;80s a 5.9-liter V8 and three-speed automatic rode inside the frame rails. It&amp;#039;s pokey\u2014and noisy\u2014by today&amp;#039;s standards, a far cry from the Cherokee&amp;#039;s refinement.  The GW&amp;#039;s a charismatic piece, however. The dash is low and shallow, so you feel high up and have a clear view through the nearly vertical windshield to the standing-proud hood emblem. The windowsill is the perfect height for a resting forearm, and the vent windows feel decidedly old-school. These traits and the classic style are one reason an example like Liddane&amp;#039;s fetches about $15,000, and the best Wagoneers cost about as much as a new one did\u2014roughly $25,000.
