This 1974 Jeep Cherokee is not just a vehicle; it’s a piece of automotive history. As the “sporty” two-door variant of Jeep’s station wagon, this Cherokee played a pivotal role in defining the SUV segment. It proudly stands as Jeep’s innovative spirit, being the first to be marketed under the term “Sport Utility Vehicle,” a concept introduced in its 1974 sales brochure.

Under the hood lies a powerful 360 V8 engine and a Turbohydramatic 400 3-speed automatic transmission, ensuring robust performance and reliability. The 4×4 drivetrain adds versatility, making it adept at navigating various terrains. The Cherokee’s exterior, painted in a captivating Light Blue with White accents, has been fully repainted, enhancing its classic appeal. It’s equipped with a proper trailer hitch, possibly modern wiring, and robust Dana 44 axles front and rear, complemented by a leaf spring suspension system. The Cherokee features a white vinyl bench seat adorned with floral seat covers, blending classic style with modern comfort. Additions like a digital clock, USB chargers, and LED lights under the dash bring contemporary convenience to this classic SUV. The vehicle also includes an AM/FM radio for entertainment.
