“Offering for sale a 1969 Jeep Commando 4×4 with removable hardtop. Easy project vehicle that runs great, with lots of recent upgrades and extra parts included. Needs some minor tinkering to be a daily driver. Could be a fun winter rig or the basis for a kick-ass rock climber.

Steve shared this one. There’s some work to be done, but it looks like the foundation is good.

“I have a 1972 jeep commando I’m looking to sell or trade. It’s a straight six with a three speed. The jeep doesn’t need much more done to be road worthy, mostly a tune up. The brakes and lines are all new. New gas tank. The rockers have some putty. Frame has been wire brushed and painted with chassis saver. The repaint someone did awhile ago isn’t all that great. Floors are still pretty solid. I have a 1973 parts commando with title that will go with at the asking price. That has a 304v8 but it’s locked up. Has the beefier transmissions.  Asking $4000 for everything listed.
May consider trades for ford model a or Willys parts.”

UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $2000.

Dan shared this one. It’s a rare body and a project for sure.

“1971 Jeep Commando (Hurst Edition) this is a very rare body, one of 100 built. No rust, waiting for someone to finish. Has Dana 44’s with lockers and new gears, never run (not sure of gearing) it’s a project I bought and never got to. Clear title, no engine, transmission or transfer case. $2000”

There may be some value here, but the seller is clear it’s a project.

“1970 Jeepster Commando. 231 Odd Fire V6, turbo 400, 3.31 axle ratio. The engine has a GM HEI conversion. Has a saginaw power steering conversion. Dual exhaust. Originally orange, was repainted in/out yellow some time ago. Complete Jeep, has roof rack and rear wind deflector. Missing rear seat. Does have some rust but not bad given the year and for being outside. The roof does unbolt so you can go topless.

Someone in the past replaced the 225 v6 with a newer 231 v6. I do not know the mileage of the jeep.

This is an old jeep, it will need attention and maintenance. You should expect this to be a complete project, expect to go through all systems. It does start, I just replaced the intake gasket, rebuilt the carb and changed the oil. Transmission shifts tight, cooling system works great, replaced thermostat and brakes work but I would still recommend towing it home to check it over.

Clean Oregon title/Bill of sale.

$2500 or reasonable offer, this is a lot nicer than the other commandos listed on CL in this price range. I am accepting offers as long as they are reasonable.”

Seller is including a parts Jeepster.

“I am selling my hard to find 73 jeep commando. This is the C104 version with the longer wheel base, giving you much more storage area in the rear of the Jeep. I initially purchased to do a restoration/modification job, but took a new job that keeps me from having the time needed for it. I spent the last year collecting parts for this to get it ready to strip down and restore it.

Nothing fancy, but a reasonable price.

“Summer is coming! My wife and I have decided to sell our 1969 Jeepster Commando. This cool off-road convertible is fairly stock with a little over 76k on the odometer. It is registered and the original Dauntless 225 V6 hums along quietly when we take her to town on nice sunny days. Please note that I would not consider this fun old jeep as a candidate for a showroom quality restoration since it has nearly half a century of scratches, dings and dents from doing what jeeps do best. I believe it was used as a hunting rig for a few decades. The floor pans were replaced a long time ago and are still rock solid. Like any old jeep, it needs someone who will maintain it and can give it a little TLC when needed.

This sale also includes the following items:
– Full set of all-terrain tires with tons of tread (see Picture)
– A rear seat in good condition ( I believe from an early CJ)
– Full size spare
– 4 sets of tire chains
– An original Jeepster hardtop (in rough condition).
– Rochester Shop Manual
– Original Title from the original owners.
– Some other spare engine and transmission parts including an old Cobra 29 CB and Antenna.

Here is a really great Petrolicious video on an awesome example of a Dauntless 225 Jeepster as a daily driver: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTc70-1cYQk

I am asking the reasonable price of $3,600 obo. Please, no low ballers or tire kickers. If this post is still up then it is still available. Also, it is worth mentioning that the Jeepster Club of America will be holding their 50th Anniversary jamboree later this month. ”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $12,500.

(12/27/2016) “Here’s a Jeepster that is begging to be finished ! Before moving from Iowa to Missouri, I had removed the body (tub) and totally restored the chassis. Upgraded the engine to a 4.3L short block from a ’92 Chev pickup ( has TBI ), rebuilt 700r4trans, rebuilt DANA 44rear axle with new brakes, rebuilt DANA 30 front axle with new brakes, rebuilt power steering, all new springs& bushings, new custom driveshafts, new wheels & tires. Saved all the wiring from the Chevy, so all can be used including the Chevy instrument panel. New plastic gas tank. Have good body from Colorado with xtra doors, perfect tailgate, new chromed bumpers, new bumper guards , and many other extras. This body has had the underside already cleaned, repaired, primed and painted. The expensive part is done, as I have over $15,000 invested in the project . Finishing the body is all this Jeepster needs, but I am no longer set up to do this work anymore. My loss – your gain. Call& we’ll talk. All engine accessories are new : Alternator, A/C compressor, water pump, power steering pump , all belts, hoses, etc. Engine was test run in May, fluids filled, all checked OK. It’s now packed and ready to winch onto your trailer.”

“1971 Jeepster Commando 83k, Buick V6, 4 speed manual, 4wd with hi-low and lockout hubs, runs, drives, stops. Not perfect, but in really good shape, drives like an old Jeep should. Larger than the old CJ’s so it’s definitely more stable. Includes white hard top, Kayline (black) soft top, hell creek suspension, 31″ tires, with brand new spare not even mounted yet, Mickey Thompson wheels, front disc brakes, new rear brakes, (shoes, drums and wheel cylinders), spare tire carrier (included but not mounted). Black hi-back seats in front with folding seat in rear. New Battery, Alternator, Voltage Regulator, transmission mount. Not exactly a rare thing but definitely uncommon, always draws interest whenever I drive it. Currently tagged as an antique so it does not require inspection, costs less than $200 a year to insure.

Please include a phone number in your email or I will NOT respond. If the ad is up it is still available. No trades, tire kickers or low-ballers. Seriously, if you send me an email w/o a contact or asking if it is still available I will just delete it, If interested please read on. . .

Overall it is is very good shape for what it is; a 40 y/o utility vehicle; I drive it approximately once a week w/o issue. It’s not a daily driver, and not really appropriate for highway travel. It will do 60mph, but that doesn’t mean it’s a good idea…

As far as I know I am the fourth owner, it was originally from Chicago, I bought it in NJ a little over 2 years ago where it spent the last few years living in a shed. It does have some rust, especially in the rear cargo area. The frame has surface rust, but no rot, wire brush it, navel jelly it and coat with your favorite rust inhibitor.

The engine is an odd-fire V6, it’s very dirty, but pulls strong, starts easily. I have installed a battery disconnect for when it’s just sitting.

The windshield has a gouge on the passenger side where it looks like somebody ran the wipers with no rubber on them, it’s ugly but still works. The wiper blades are new along with the rubber along the door windows. The windshield washer system is incomplete and non functioning. The pump motor is buried up under the dash but it is not wired in and the washer fluid reservoir bag is old but still in the engine compartment.

It is being offered as is no warranty, if the ad is still up then it’s still available.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000.
