 For sale is a 1972 Jeepster Commando.  No Reserve.  For those out there who know this truck, you will appreciate the unmolested nature of this particular vehicle.  It does not look pretty on the outside, but it will make a great platform for whatever you wish to do with it.  You could beef it up (new springs, shackles, a lift kit, 35s, etc.) and it would make a great hunting truck--couple thousand into it would suffice; or you could turn it into a show truck with a new paint job and some chrome on the engine; or you could do what I have done--nothing--and drive it around like it is.  The drive train is strong and it's a blast driving around in the summer with the top off.  It has enough power to tow a boat, and operates well in mud and snow.  Be ready for a lot of attention though.  I can't drive it anywhere without someone asking me what it is.  Defnitely a unique truck.  Certainly, it needs a little love, but hell, it's 40yrs old!

I've installed some aftermarket gauges (temp, oil, volt).  The speedometer works but the gas gauge does not.  All the exterior lights work.  There's a dent in the passenger door and just behind it (thus the primer to keep the rust away).  It's originally from Montana and spent time in Washington State.  I bought it ad shipped it to New York where I've put less than 2000 summer miles on it the last two years.    If you're within a hundred miles of me, I'd drive it to meet you, otherwise it would be smart to ship since it gets about 13mpg.  I haven't had any problems with it and I am only selling it finance some work on my Landcruiser.

Freak accident during Jeep demonstration turns fatal

Mon, 20 May 2013

A 20-year-old woman was killed in Edmonton, Canada on Satuday, reports CTV News, in a freak accident resulting from a rollover during a Jeep demonstration. As part of a fundraising enthusiast event called "Jeeps Go Topless," the driver of one Jeep Wrangler drove up and onto the top of the tire of another.
CTV reports that the owner of the topmost Jeep then switched the vehicle off, posed for pictures and then dismounted from his vehicle. His movement off of the Jeep apparently caused it to tip over, crushing a woman who was on top of an adjacent vehicle. Edmonton police are currently investigating more fully what caused the parking lot accident to occur. Scroll below to watch the CTV News video report about this tragic incident.

NHTSA closes probes on Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey

Wed, 09 Jan 2013

The Detroit News reports the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially closed its investigations into 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2004-2005 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey models. The separate probes found no issues that pose safety concerns. NHTSA began investigating certain Grand Cherokee SUVs over complaints that power steering hoses could detach during operation, thereby increasing the risk of a vehicle fire. Of the 24 reports of failure, none alleged smoke or fire in the engine bay, and Chrysler has since modified the power steering cooler assembly to reduce the likelihood of the failure.
Meanwhile, certain Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey vehicles garnered a government probe after receiving complaints that the models were equipped with faulty scissor jacks. The agency had received six reports of the jacks failing or causing injuries, including one incident that resulted in a fatality. But NHTSA says the jack failure rate is similar to those found in other vehicles. In those six cases, the government agency found the jacks were being used for something other than changing a tire, and investigators could not determine whether the emergency brake was set or the rear tires were properly chocked.
