1978 Jeep Wagoneer Overview
Off-roading. Smooth city driving. Charm of the 70s. Blend in a steel frame, and pat into shape. The result? The 1978 Jeep Wagoneer, the 16th Wagoneer in the long line of SUVs. Like the years before it, the 1978 Jeep Wagoneer boasted a 401 cubic inch V-8 engine to power through anything in its way. Two other engine options were available as well, a 258 cubic inch I-6, and a 360 cubic inch V-8. And since all the best things come in threes, three transmission options can be found in the 1978 Jeep Wagoneer, a 3-speed manual, a 4 speed manual, and a 3-speed automatic, if you just like to sit back and let the car do the work.
Certainly today more comfortable and powerful vehicles can be found. But few cars can match the durability of 1978 Jeep Wagoneer. 1963 Jeep Wagoneers are still around; 1978 Jeep Wagoneers are still going strong. Especially in the hands of a mechanic (or someone who knows a mechanic). The 1978 Jeep Wagoneer can be a great SUV for off-road fun, but with all the interior passenger space, can work as a family car. So get out there and get one for yourself, if 4WD SUVs from the 70s are up your alley.

Side Mirror Driver And Passenger
Does anyone know where I can find replacement side mirrors for a "78" wagoneer. Not just the glass but the housing as well. I would like to have original style vs new look.
James That's my Jeep! Lol no for real it was my grandfather's passed to my dad then me. Then he sold it out from under me. I have videos and pictures and the missing chrome trim on. I recognize the color and our body work. I cried when I seen this. It's originally from Bloomington Indiana if name's are with title bill of sale's history the name Abbitt should be there. What I would do to have this back after promising it to my daughter.
James Funny I just read the whole thing very true all I've ever known is working on cars with dad in the garage. In the hands of a mechanic is very true.
James The reason you don't have driver's side pictures it was rear ended by a dumbass would have been alot worse had I not payed attention to the rear view drop it in 1st and let her eat up the grass embankment through the ditch
