gasolineWe are proud to offer you the HOLY GRAIL of Jeep Grand Wagoneers: the 1987 Ambassador Edition the last version of the Wagoneer that Jeep ever produced in Mexico.
This is a very special piece of history from VAM's (Vehiculos Automotores Mexicanos) legacy. VAM had produced AMC-licensed products in Mexico for many years until 1982, when crisis hit the country and the company. VAM struggled to survive that crisis, and – in the same way as in the United States – Renault would take over the VAM operations in Mexico. The 1983 lineup would be the last for the AMC-based cars, with production efforts shifting toward parts inventory. Jeep would live a few more years under Renault direction, but it also met its fate in 1987 when Renault retired all their investments in North America. Renault sold its AMC shares to Chrysler (United Sates) and closed operations in Mexico. March of 1987 was the last month for Renault Jeep to report sales – this specific Grand Wagoneer Ambassador was sold new on April 1st of 1987.
There is very few information about the Grand Wagoneer Ambassador, but it is clear that it was a commemorative way for the Jeep brand and the Grand Wagoneer nameplate to say goodbye to the Mexican market after many years of great sales. The production numbers are not clear, but various sources states that there were approximately 12 units – mostly built for high-ranking politicians.
The Ambassador trim is believed to be the last of the Grand Wagoneer run in Mexico. The very luxurious package sported only four leather/cloth seats. In lieu of a second row bench seat, Jeep outfitted the second row with two captain's chairs and plenty of leg room. Ambassador Editions didn’t have third row seating. In order to enhance the luxurious profile for the Ambassador, a vinyl landau insert was added to the C pillar and rear doors to give privacy to presumably distinguished rear passengers. Only black and white Ambassadors are known to be produced – no information was provided on specific production numbers for each color – and none had the distinctive Grand Wagoneer wood grain exterior trim.
Full equipment was standard, including power windows and locks, electronically adjustable mirrors, air conditioning and an AM/FM cassette stereo.
The engine is VAM´s 4.6 liter (282 cubic inches) inline six cylinder, an exclusive Mexican-engineered development for the top line models delivering 132 horsepower and 218 lbs-ft of torque. The transmission is a 3-speed automatic with 4 wheel drive.
This Grand Wagoneer Ambassador is now available for sale in the United States, recently imported and ready to be registered in any state. The vehicle is in very good condition with a few details that can still be improved.
