The Wagoneer was introduced in November 1962 for the 1963 model year as a successor to the Willys Jeep Station Wagon. The original Wagoneer is a full size body on frame vehicle that shared its architecture with the Gladiator pickup truck. Early Wagoneers were powered by Willys' new Tornado SOHC 230 cubic inch inline six, developing 140 horsepower, with a 3 speed manual or automatic transmission. Shortly after the introduction, in early 1963, Willys Motors changed its name to Kaiser Jeep Corporation.
