Up for sale is a 1971 Jeepster Commando 2-Door Station Wagon. It has good running 225 V6 Buick engine (3.7L) and an Automatic Transmission with only 71,582 original miles! Does NOT burn oil. It has the bucket seats and center console shifter. I recently rebuilt the carburetor, replaced the battery, replaced the distributor (along with points, wires, plugs, condenser, rotor and cap), and replaced the muffler and rear exhaust pipe. This thing now runs pretty well. The Jeep has locking hubs for the front wheels and four-wheel drive. Tires are in good shape. Automatic transmission shifts strong. The AM radio even works!

Last winter I picked up a Half Cab and bulkhead for the Jeepster. The bulkhead is currently installed, making the tops interchangeable! The Half Cab top is pretty rare and is worth close to $800 alone. The Station Wagon top has the sliding side windows and is in good shape (both tops are missing headliners). The Half Cab top gives the flexibility of using the Jeepster as a truck, of sorts, by creating a short bed. I rhino-lined the back area, but the back seat and seatbelts can still be bolted in when needed. Both the front seats and back seat have matching seat covers. The seats are worn but otherwise in relatively good shape. I just covered them so they wouldn't get any worse.

As with any 42-year-old rig, this one is not perfect. It has a very amateur paint job, mostly because the grill, left front fender, and hood were another color when I bought the Jeepster. I believe the fender and hood are from a 1967 Jeepster, so the fenders are not an exact match. The Jeep electrical system is old and temperamental (the dashboard illumination lights recently stopped working, for example). The ignition system has been changed over to a key and push button. There is some rust that will eventually need attention (front floorboards, the bottom of the tailgate and vicinity, one part of the Half Cab top drip rail, top of right front fender). The window and door seals will one day need to replaced, depending on how much you like the sound of rattling when you drive down the road. The rear window seal on the Half Cab has a gap at the bottom of the glass. And, there is that occasional clunk I've been hearing in the front end on sharp right turns. The brakes are good, but a brake booster would also make this a lot easier to stop.

Overall, a very solid classic builder that is driveable now, and gets plenty of thumbs-up. Great for winter and summer. Please email with questions.

Are we about to see a real SUV revival?

Wed, Mar 23 2016

Now that the marketplace has been oversaturated with cute-utes, crossovers, and CUV coupes, are we about to see a resurgence of real, honest-to-God SUVs? Ummm... maybe. The stars seem to be aligning in that direction, at least that's the sense I'm getting. We know an all-new Jeep Wrangler is only a few auto shows away; and that Jeep is about to introduce a new Grand Cherokee Trailhawk for 2017, in the same rugged spirit of the successful Cherokee and Renegade Trailhawks. Ford has hinted at a neo-Bronco, after showing the concept above in 2014 to wet the mouths of all those Duck Dynasty-types out there. And, and... wait for it... I recently learned that Subaru sent a questionnaire out to some Forester owners asking if they might be interested in an off-road package if it were offered. The items listed were pretty hardcore, serious stuff, such as: integrated tow/recovery hooks, additional ground clearance, more rugged wheels, skid plates, altimeter, front-view off-road camera, improved approach and departure angles, advanced differentials, Inclinometer, full-size spare tire, upgraded off-road suspension components, more aggressive tires, off-road driving mode (engine, transmission, throttle, and steering settings), more rugged styling, low-range gearing, and a more advanced traction management system. Folks that's not my wish list (well, actually it is), but those are words from Subaru, asking if that's what customers would like to see. Need proof? Go to the SubaruForester.org website. It's in a discussion there. So... no promises or guarantees here, and feel free to call me a rumormonger if you like; but the next few years could prove very interesting for those who actually do go off road. If this pans out, remember, you read it here first. Related Video: Image Credit: Ford Ford Jeep Subaru Crossover SUV Off-Road Vehicles open road
