From 1974 up until 1983, the Jeep brand, which then was still owned by AMC or the American Motors Corporation, manufactured the Jeep Cherokee SJ series. The Cherokee SJ was a SUV that was full-sized. It shared similarities with the Jeep Wagoneer, which was originally designed in 1963 by Brooks Stevens. When it first came out, the Cherokee was introduced to the market as the Jeep’s station wagon’s sporty two-door offering. It was three years later, in 1977, when a four-door model was added to the Cherokee SJ lineup.
The Cherokee was manufactured in eight trims – base model, S (Sport), Chief, Golden Eagle, Limited, Classic, Sport, Pioneer, and Laredo. Two engines were available for the SUV, the AMC I6 or V8 powerplants. Distinctive aesthetics for the Cherokee included leaf springs that were semi-elliptical in the rear and front. It was mainly produced in Toledo, Ohio. It was the first vehicle to be given the “Achievement Award” by Four Wheeler Magazine. The award was later renamed as the “Four Wheeler of the Year” award.
