Jeep Cherokee Chief 1976

The 1976 Jeep Cherokee Chief is an iconic vehicle that holds a special place in off-road vehicle history. Jeep, a brand synonymous with ruggedness and adventure spirit, introduced the Cherokee Chief as a powerful and rugged SUV designed specifically for both off-road adventures and everyday use. The Chief version, with its distinctive styling and enhanced off-road capabilities, quickly became a favorite among off-road vehicle enthusiasts.

Since its purchase in 2013, this Cherokee Chief has undergone a thorough restoration, with the exhaust being renewed and modified in 2018 for a sound that perfectly matches the car's powerful appearance. The restoration ensured that the car not only retained its authentic charm, but also returned it to top technical condition.

One of the special features of this Jeep Cherokee Chief is the combination of LPG and gasoline, which not only offers flexibility but also contributes to the efficiency of the car. A new gas tank was installed in 2015, ensuring the reliability and safety of the LPG system.

After spending five years in storage with a faulty engine, a new engine was installed in 2021, significantly extending the life of this classic. Earlier this year, the Cherokee Chief underwent several more repairs during its MOT, including the replacement of kingpins, new tires and the camshaft sprocket. These recent maintenance repairs have ensured that the engine now runs smoothly and powerfully, ready for new adventures.

Despite its age of 48 years, this Jeep Cherokee Chief still attracts a lot of attention, especially at classic car days and during road trips. The car has always been serviced at the specialist garage, which explains its good condition. Still, like any classic car, it needs some attention and care from time to time to maintain its imposing appearance. The interior and exterior show some imperfections in this regard. It is a car for lovers of tough and rugged vehicles, a real eye-catcher that proudly conveys its history.

With a towing weight of 7200 kg on registration plates and constant all-wheel drive with an option for extremely tough terrain, this Jeep Cherokee Chief is not only an aesthetic icon, but also a functional beast of a car. Built to handle the toughest conditions, it offers a driving experience that few modern cars can match. To get a good idea of the lot, we recommend coming to the viewing day.
