1969 Jeep Jeepster Commando C101

This is a trail rig to end all trail rigs... or for just bumping around town. It has a strong running 225 c.i. Dauntless V6 that is clean and well maintained. Has Dana 27 and Dana 44.Oil pressure is spot-on and fires right up from a cold start. This Jeepster has a TH400 Auto transmission. The auto trans was installed by a 4x4 shop which replaced the original three speed T-14. I still have the manual transmission and it comes with the Jeep, flywheel included. The clutch is still intact so you have a choice. The transmission has an aftermarket oil cooler.
The spring over axle lift was professionally done and is super stable with newer leaf springs, shackles and dual shocks all around. The new duel exhaust is from Flowmaster and sounds tough. The high quality 4bbl 470 cfm Holley Truck Avenger carburetor was professionally and fully rebuilt (looks brand new) two weeks ago and sits atop of an Offenhauser intake. The body and floors are in great shape for its age. There is one small hole through the drivers side floor and one small hole through the passenger side (see pics). There is minor spotting of rust at the bottom leading edge of the drivers door and one small rust hole through the side of the hood. The bed and tailgate are good with minimal surface. The tailgate is in great shape with a about an inch of separation from its hinge on the inside but the rest is solid and ready for paint. ALL of these are extremely easy to fix with the right tools. Any other rust is superficial and merely surface. It will clean up very easily and nicely before paint. This body, floor pan, and tailgate are collectively cleaner than most I have seen . The frame and underbody were Rinolined years ago which has kept it in amazing shape and unequivocally solid with no rust to speak of. The duel shocks on each corner are fresh (despite some surface discoloration on some). The doors are not original and are from a 70 but are in good condition. All the glass is intact and nice except for the windshield. The rubber around the doors in window slot need replaced.
I have a windshield ready to be installed at my cost at a local shop that specializes in windshield of this nature. I had the alternator tested when I replaced the battery last week and it passed, The battery is new and warrantied for 3 years. The tonneau cover is custom and you will not find many like it out there. It has a solid tow hitch with a two inch receiver. A hefty roll bar comes with the Jeep. The 33 inch BFGs are in good shape and have about 50% tread left. This Commando does need a few things i.e. wiring harness for rear lights and blinkers, front bumper, horn, and some odd and ends like glove box insert, windshield wiper blades etc. It will not take much to make it an unbeatable beautiful Jeep. I have contacts for many of these and other miscellaneous items for a Commando.
Why go with a CJ-5 or CJ-7 like everyone else, Go Commando and you will have a unique piece of Jeep history.

NOTE: The wheels you see here are being sandblasted and I will update photos Wednesday. They are in great shape but needed some cleaning up. New lug nuts are waiting their completion and they will be ready for you to paint any color you so choose.

*I will help facilitate shipping this Jeep at buyers cost and can give you the name and number to a reputable transport company. I will also assist in loading it.

Please ask all questions necessary BEFORE bidding and before the auctions end.

Do not hesitate to ask questions or request a specific picture. You can also PM for my cell and we can talk more about it prior to the auctions end. It is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early even if reserve is met.

Thanks and good luck!

Jeep patent filing in China show plans for 3-row Grand Commander

Fri, Dec 8 2017

Back in October, we brought you spy shots of a Jeep crossover mule driving around Fiat-Chrysler's headquarters in Auburn Hills, Mich. They appeared to show a prototype version of the Yuntu Concept, a three-row utility vehicle unveiled at the Shanghai Auto Show and designed for China. Now, new patent filings submitted to China's trademark office and originally reported by Chinese-language website AutoHome appear to back that up. They suggest that Jeep will call the model the Grand Commander, add a seventh seat (the Yuntu had six) and will debut it next April in Beijing. While the Yuntu was a plug-in hybrid, the Grand Commander will reportedly be powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged gasoline engine that makes 270 horsepower, which sounds like the same four-cylinder engine that powers the 2018 Wrangler. But since Jeep has confirmed a plug-in hybrid version of the Wrangler coming for 2020, it's not unreasonable to expect that configuration could come later for the Grand Commander, too, especially considering the Chinese government's push to ramp up production of electric vehicles. The patent filings also list names for other Jeep models in China, including the concept-sounding names Portal and Hyperspace. The Portal was the name Chrysler gave to a pretty nifty electric minivan concept with double sliding bay doors at this year's CES in Las Vegas.Related Video:

Jeep Renegade sales being held due to powertrain issue [UPDATE]

Wed, May 20 2015

UPDATE: An unnamed FCA US source has clarified to Automotive News that while there is a software issue, it does not concern the transmission. The Jeep Renegade appears to be facing early software problems that are similar to the ones at the introduction of the Cherokee a few years ago. The issue is keeping the brand's latest compact crossover away from dealers until the situation can be resolved. The fault reportedly deals with the software controlling the Renegade's nine-speed automatic transmission. FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne briefly talked about what was happening in an interview with Automotive News. "I'm having a very bad engineering day," he said. "It's a combination of attributes of that vehicle that is making my life horrible." The company boss predicted at the longest it could take until mid-June to fix things. Through April, Jeep has sold 5,157 Renegades, including 4,214 of them in that month alone. Autoblog reached out to an FCA US spokesperson to learn more about the software problem, but the company had no comment. Getting the software right to control the nine-speed automatic plagued development of the Cherokee. The issues delayed the model's launch in 2013, and the company was still releasing improvements for some vehicles this year.
