1973 Jeep Commando on 2040-cars

 This is a really nice jeep.  I got it from a friend in Georgia who had it siting in a barn.  I went through it mechanically and shot it flat black to prevent rust.  I did not fix any of the little dents or dings but I did replace some metal in the floors and replaced the tailgate because of rust.  There is still a little rust in the bottom of the rocker panels (see pictures), beyond that it is rust free.  I built it to goof off in and have very much enjoyed it over the past few years but now it spends most of it's time in my barn only getting driven 3 or 4 times a year so I have decided to sell it, clearing some space in the barn and letting someone else enjoy the Jeep.

I have replaced all the brakes including hard lines and master cylinder, new tires, radiator, water pump, gas tank, carburetor, HEI distributor, front seats, custom made bumpers, new tailgate and roll bar with new three point seat belts.  It has 2" lift springs from Hell Creek along with new shocks and stainless steel brake lines.

When driven regularly, the jeep starts easily and runs very well.  At temperature (after being driven for a while) the engine temperature is at a constant 180 degrees and the oil pressure is at 20 lbs at idle and 55 lbs when driving.  The transmission is the TH400 automatic and it shifts smooth and works as it should.  The transfer case is the old gear driven type, Dana 20 I think, and the 4wd works as it should.  The jeep has power steering (the steering unit leaks a little) and power brakes.  The odometer reads 60,522.  I have no way of knowing if it is actual or not.

What the jeep does not have is a hard top.  I have the back hatch to the hard top but no hard top, only a bikini top.
