The Jerrari // '77 Wagoneer
On a recent trip to the Off Road Motorsports Hall of Fame in Reno, Nevada, a particular vehicle caught our eye. It wasn't the Big Oly Bronco or the famed Baja Boot. In fact, it wasn't in the Off Road Hall of Fame at all. As a small part of the National Auto Museum, the exhibit houses over 200 of the late Bill Harrah's 1400-strong car collection, including everything from the Thomas Flyer (Google it...) to Elvis's Cadillac. But the vehicle that captured our attention, though not as old as the Thomas Flyer or as audacious as Big Daddy Roth's Beatnik Bandit, looked like just another Jeep from the outside. It was Bill Harrah's personal ride: a '77 Wagoneer fitted with a Ferrari V-12 engine. And while we weren't able to fire up the Jerrari, shop supervisor Jay Hubbard was nice enough to let us crawl all over the Jeep and provided us with the rich history of the vehicle.
