I have for sale my 1969 Jeepster Commando. This is a hard to find vehicle to begin with, and finding one with as little rust as this one and with this much work done to it is nearly impossible. It is at that awkward stage where it is not finished and not a project. You can get in this rig and go wherever you need to go. The engine runs great-no smoke, funny noises, smells, or any other unwanted distractions. It steers great down the road, has lots of power, and is really fun to drive. This jeepster has the Dauntless V-6, T-14 three speed transmission, Dana 20 transfer case, A Dana 44 rear and a swapped in 1979 Dana 30 front with disc brakes. The dash is uncut and it retains all of the original switches and gauges. It appears to have been painted once the same color as original, but no body work has been done while I have owned it. There is minor rust in the rear tailgate, but it is better than 90% of them I have seen. There is rust in the drivers side rocker, but the passenger side rocker is incredibly solid. There is minor rust in the windshield frame, and I have located a few of them in the $200 range but have not purchased one yet. All of the glass is good and appears to be original. The rear hatch opens as intended and stays up. I have keys for all of the locks. I have a variety of small parts to go with the Commando. All exterior lights work as intended. Wipers work on both speeds. Heater blower works on both speeds. The dash lights and fuel gauge are not currently working. No horn-its there but not hooked up. Rear axle has a locker or posi unit in it. I don't mean to over do the list, but here is what has been done so far.
Saginaw power steering conversion-this was not an option until 71 on these vehicles, and it eliminates the undesirable Ross steering. Carburetor has been rebuilt-still needs fine tuning as it has a small dead spot when you goose it at hiway speeds. New fuel pump. New drag link and tie rod ends, with drag link set up as high steer. New rear frame and shackle bushings and new rear boomerang shackles. New exhaust with a quiet turbo muffler. New Alternator. New battery and battery cables. New clutch cable. New wheels with fair 31" BFG all terrain tires. New brake pads, shoes, hoses, lines, and wheel cylinders. New u-joints. New 4" Hell Creek springs, shocks, and u-bolts. New custom built tube front and rear bumpers. Frame was sanded and cleaned and coated with POR15 to prevent rust. Duraback bedliner material was installed on the interior floor. There is no rust through in the floorboards as evident by a creeper inspection underneath. New Grant steering wheel. Front seats have been recovered in blue velour. Aftermarket roll bar installed. New seat belts throughout-4 total. New fuel tank, fuel tank hangers and fuel gauge sending unit-has not been hooked up. New H-4 headlights. Roof rack installed on top. Lockout hubs installed. New dimmer switch. Cigarrette lighter plug installed under dash for gps or cell phone charging. Oil changed about 200 miles ago. New fuel filter. I'm sure I'm forgetting some small stuff, but you get the picture. I'm no body man, and bodywork and paint is all it is lacking.
We drive this Jeep wherever we want to go. I have a clear Missouri title in my name. Jeepster will be sold as-is where-is with no warranty expressed or implied as to suitability for any particular purpose. Having said that, you will look far and wide to find a better one. There is NOTHING better than a Jeepster with the top off for summer driving. Payment terms are simple. Cash is always good, checks are OK as long as you understand they must clear before the vehicle leaves my possession. We drove it over 100 miles this past Sunday, and I would not be afraid to drive it anywhere. The speedo is off about 10 mph due to the larger tires, s0 45 is about 55 mph. 65 or 70 is no issue. No trades will be discussed whatsoever. Please do not waste my time or yours.

Jeep Renegade to show off new Mopar gear in Detroit
Sun, Jan 11 2015Jeep's adorable new Renegade is arriving in the US market soon (we're looking forward to driving it in a couple weeks), and to highlight that fact, the American off-road brand is trotting out a pair of Mopar-modified compact CUVs for the 2015 North American International Auto Show. Rather simply, Jeep has modified one Renegade to show off its prowess in the city, and another that plays up the crossover's off-road abilities. Despite their different purposes, both vehicles show off Mopar's parts catalog and Jeep's Authentic Accessories lineup for the new baby Jeep. The Urban Renegade borrows uses a Renegade Limited with Anvil paint as its base and draws from the Accessories catalog, adding a number of Omaha orange accents and satin black wheels. Mopar donated a bike-hauling trailer hitch to the rear of the Renegade, while its cabin features Katzkin leather-lined seats. Once again, Omaha orange accents brighten up the Limited's cabin. As for the off-road model, Mopar got a bit more involved, starting with the Renegade Trailhawk and adding satin black wheels with Colorado red trim and X-shaped graphics, borrowed from military jerry cans, to the Commando Green exterior. A number of prototype and one-off body mods were fitted to the Trailhawk, including a concept skid plate, rock rails and a new rear valence. Inside, Katzkin leather was applied to the Renegade's seats while the Omaha orange accents from the Urban Renegade have been replaced with Commando Green bits and bobs in the off-road model. Look for more on these new Renegade twins come Monday, when we hit the floor of the 2015 Detroit Auto Show. Until then, check out the official press release from Mopar.

Jeep Cherokee finally dealer-bound
Tue, 22 Oct 2013We had our First Drive of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee last month, but it appears that prospective buyers won't have too much longer to finally get time behind the wheel of the new small Jeep.
Automotive News is reporting that after a two-month delay, Jeep dealers will finally start receiving their first shipments of the new Cherokee, in the next 10 days. A Chrysler spokesperson confirmed to Autoblog that the Cherokee is indeed on its way to Jeep dealers.
According to AN, about 23,000 Cherokees have been built since production commenced back in June, but potential powertrain issues forced Jeep to make adjustments to the Cherokee along the way. Automotive News says that in order to make sure there are no issues with the Cherokee before it reaches customers, it is testing each vehicle after it rolls off the assembly line at a rented test track near the vehicle's Toledo North Assembly Plant.
EU finds Jeep Grand Cherokee and Suzuki Vitara break emissions rules
Thu, Jan 23 2020AMSTERDAM — Fiat Chrysler's Jeep Grand Cherokee and Suzuki's Vitara diesel models both break emissions rules and must be fixed or face a ban on sales across Europe, the Dutch road authority ruled on Thursday. The RDW authority, acting as the reference regulator for across the European Union, said Jeep had developed a software fix and that the authority had ordered the company to recall the model across Europe to roll it out. It added Suzuki had yet to find a credible solution for the Vitara. "Suzuki must come with adequate improvement measures or the RDW will begin the process of revoking its European type approval," the RDW said in a statement, adding it had also started the process of revoking approval for the Jeep Grand Cherokee as a "precautionary measure." Regulators across the world have been testing diesel models since Volkswagen admitted in 2015 that it used illegal software to cheat U.S. emissions tests. The RDW said it had found both the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Vitara had used "prohibited emissions strategies" that led them to emit higher levels of harmful nitrogen oxide (NOx) on the road than under testing conditions. Dutch State Secretary for Infrastructure, Stientje van Veldhoven, said in a letter to parliament she would inform prosecutors of the RDW's findings. Fiat Chrysler and Suzuki could not immediately be reached for comment. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
