I agree w/ Rob, a later model GC such as this 1990 would be so fine. I had one similar to this.

I would buy a squillion of these; any chance Revell could leverage anything from their Jeep Honcho kit?

Probably would be best to start fresh..the Honcho kit is a bit on the simplified and crude side. 

 

I agree; all-new would be preferable. Failing that, I'd be happy with a body, grille, and wheels, and I'd figure out the rest on my own.

Although my preference would be something earlier.

Say mid 60s - early 70s.

Nice... it's essential we make this a 7-in-1 kit to cover all the years.

These big wagons were also available in two doors. There is a bright red one sitting in a yard about 15 miles from my house. No woodgrain on it. I never can remember to take my camera when take that route.

Yeah, the Wagoneer was available as a 2dr up through 1968.  There was also a 2dr sedan delivery/panel version.   Don't think I've ever seen an early 2dr.

Then in '74 they brought out a 2dr Cherokee, with a different side window treatment than the older 2drs.   This lasted through '83 until the XJ Cherokee came out for '84.
