Vehicle Description
This 1968 Jeep Jeepster Commando has a more unique style than its
CJ siblings But you can also tell the invested plenty to make sure
this lives up to the name go-anywhere reputation of the Jeep name.
With V8 power, 4x4 prowess, four-wheel disc brakes, a full roll
cage, and plenty of off-road suspension upgrades, this is a
distinct way to also be capable.
You know this Jeep means business the moment you lay eyes on it.
The front end has a tubular steel front bumper with a brush guard,
tow hooks, and Hella lights. The sides have big flared fenders and
steel rock sliders. In the rear, the tubular steel bumper holds the
high lift jack, trailer hitch, and a swing-away mount for the spare
tire and Jerry cans. It's all showcased on the unique Jeepster body
that has the face of its contemporary CJ, but a sleeker overall
body design. You even get artful doors with proper roll-up windows.
And the full package is a nice mix of red and black that looks bold
while also showcasing a style that tells the world that this
classic is an adventurer.
While the black soft top looks good and fits snug, this one really
looks best when open to the world. It's the right mix of form and
function where the floors are fully Rhino-lined. And the seats have
a terrific red and black two-tone that's done in durable vinyl.
There are fun classic details, like the stock speedometer or the AM
radio that's still there for display. But what you might like the
best is how this utilizes the unique features of the Jeepster.
There's a full custom roll cage over the long body, and because you
have the extra length, there's room for a steel lockbox behind the
rear seats. And the driver's seat is truly a commanding one with
the upgraded sports steering wheel, auxiliary readouts, and a large
AutoMeter Autogage tach.
For versatile power and limitless upgrade-ability, it's hard to
beat the Chevy 350 small block V8. So it's great to see the upgrade
under the hood of this nicely restored Jeep. The ultra-tidy engine
bay does a great job showcasing the added thoughtful style where
the red inner walls, black motor, and red accents coordinate with
the exterior and interior. This later center bolt valve cover motor
benefits from the addition of the right components for power and
consistency. This includes a mild cam, a Holley four-barrel
carburetor, an Edelbrock intake, HEI distributor, Optima red top
battery, and shorty headers feeding the dual exhaust. Real Jeeps
are the off-road kings, so the stout TH400 three-speed automatic
transmission is linked to a two-speed transfer case for true 4x4
ability. The high ground clearance, custom drop spindles, upgraded
diff covers, and Super Swamper tires are all part of the rugged
nature. But even when you're just on a milk run, features like
power steering and four-wheel power disc brakes are always
handy.
This is an awesome way to get the best in classic Jeep style and
ability in a truly unique package. Call today!!!
