It was found in police cars, campers and vehicles like this 1976 Jeep Chief. If I have my math and my history right, 1976 was the year the 401 got somewhat neutered by the factory due to increasingly stringent emissions regulations and the aftershocks of the oil crisis. While the power dropped off from the previous year, the 401 still came to battle with 320 lb. ft. of torque, a righteous number no matter how you look at it. To this day, Jeep and AMC fanatics get downright excited when they find a junkyard vehicle with a complete 401 still attached.
The seller of this particular Jeep Cherokee Chief claims he has $15,000 invested in the vehicle, with improvements and maintenance including a full engine rebuild and a rebuilt Turbo 400 transmission. The suspension and tires have been updated and upgraded, and the seller installed a functional A/C system. Perhaps the best surprise of all is that it still sports original paint that looks quite good in the photos. The only major defect listed is an exhaust leak that’s developed since the Jeep has been in storage. This looks like a great vehicle for using both as intended and on the local car show circuit. Though you don’t want to muss up that original paint job, it’s still not too much of a trailer queen that you can’t take it camping and maybe down a creek bed or two. Bidding is just over $2K with the reserve unmet – how would you use this Z-code equipped Cherokee?
