ONLY BID IF YOU ARE LEGIT AND CAN PAY VIA
THE RULES GUIDE LINED IN THE AD , its not that hard.
WE as a seller are legit and honest and here to help
please dont waste our time.  LOW HONEST RESERVE bid to win !

Heres your chance to own a pretty rare model 
Jeepster Commando Truck (or half cab) with the 
spare tire continental kit on it (haha)

You may say this is the original Scrambler !!

As most people know, usually all you see are these in there
Wagon form, but this pick up truck version is way more rare.
this Jeepsters has been a farm truck of sorts here in the Az
desert most of its life. Other then a little rust along the rockers
its a very rust free Jeep. Also being a ranch truck, it wasnt used
a whole lot and mostly just for stuff around the ranch and short
trips into town. In the last 10 yrs its barely been used at all.
It does run and drive , its not fast but has lots of torque.
Motor doesnt smoke or make any weird noises, but it does sound 
like it could a good tune up and maybe a carb rebuild from sitting.
Gas in the tank is all new and good. Trans and brakes feel great.
2 pretty cool options this truck has is PS and PB and both work great
They could be original or added at one time, not sure.

Shows 95k aprox on the odometer, prob original


DRIVETRAIN:
pretty much all original under the hood, 225 V6
factory diffs and trans, which all seem to work great for their
age. But these things where built to last and this one has stood
the test of time for being a work horse on a ranch. Tires are too
bad either. To start the car someone installed a push button
switch on the dash. So you use that and the key to start the car.
Sometimes it wont crank, so Im guessing maybe one of the switches
is getting worn out from age. That or maybe it may need some new
battery cables. We did install a new starter 
solenoid last week.
Choke works and I suggest using it when its cold. It runs a little
rough at idle. When you are on the gas, it runs much better.
Front hubs are unlocking / locking aka Part time, rear is locking Im sure.

INTERIOR: mostly all original and showing its age from the az
heat and sun too. Indoor carpet and seat covers didnt help much.
But if you recovered the seats and sunvisors it would help alot.
It also needs a good cleaning. Floors have some surface rust but
not soft. Its not pretty, but seems to functional and intact and
mostly original too.

EXTERIOR: the original color was 419 Prairie Gold and for some reason the
wheelwells are Red. Not sure if thats stock or not but looks original. The
silver paint on there now looks like it was done in someones driveway.
The body for the most part looks very straight, but the cab did get some dents
in it. The metal on this is so thick, that I think any damaged pcs would be
fixable. There was some mild rust on the rockers that will need patching
if you want to take it that far. Headlights work, but didnt see the taillights
working. Should be pretty simple, not much to the wiring on this thing.
The homemade bumpers would knock down a small building (haha) they 
are stout, but not original of course. It does have a tow hitch in the back
AND comes with a nice front tow bar too. No pitting on what little chrome
is on the truck. Doors all lock like they should and all the glass looks ok
and windows work. Obviously some things have been added to the body but
its all reverse-able too if you want to put it back to stock.

SUSPENSION: looks to be all stock and original , solid and almost
bullet proof the way it came from the factory. Shocks looks to be 
aftermarket and decent too. And it doesnt ride all that bad either
for as stout as it is. Not sure what more I can say, but please check out
ALL the pics below.

Check out ALL the pics below ----->

it may take a full minute for them all to load if you have a
slow connection, so be patient AND looks for the extra schroll
bar on the right side.
Az gets maybe 12" a yr of rain and Az very dry climate.
more info AFTER the pics etc. There are 100 large pics.







































































































































































Hope you like the detailed pics
The interior floors are in nice shape as in much of the body
Im sure there is some old repairs done over the years
but it is a Project truck if you want to restore it, if you want
It just to go on trails and wheeling, it needs very little.

There you have it, probably The BEST represented JEEPS on Ebay.
 
Shows you all the good as well as any bad, hope you appreciate them.
We put a lot of time and effort in marketing our cars and it shows.
People wait months for a car this solid to come up for sale
and even if you have to pay shipping to your area, it still beats
paying a body shop to hopefully fix a rusty car for weeks on end.
Having as much as the original steel on a restored car these days
speaks volumes. 

Also, if you buy a car thats been "restored", who knows what sort
of surprises are hidden under new paint or thick undercoating.
People are flipping cars all the time when most of the jobs are
fast, for a quick buck and quality suffers. 

Our auctions have NOTHING to hide .
Restore a car like this yourself or locally and you know
exactly what you have in the end.

Email us with ANY questions before you bid please
If you treat yourself to buying one of our vehicles
youll never buy a total rust bucket again from anyone !!
Our Impeccable FEEDBACK speaks for itself.
Doing restoration on this type of project is less labor
intensive which means overall cost is less too !
With less horrid surprises later on.
Dont let auctions with little to no pics try to fool you. 
With other auctions,  you really dont know what to expect
until you take the car apart. While we go over our cars ALL OVER
with great pics to help making your decision easier.
Along with ANY other questions you may have.
Email me for a quote for shipping.
Or fly in and drive it home, its that reliable and clean
.

On May-28-14 at 11:45:45 PDT, seller added the following information:

The ignition or starter part is still giving me issues and works when it 

feels like it, BUT the funny thing is if I put a batter box or charger
on the battery, it will start EVERTIME when I do that. So not sure if its
still a cable, connection or old switch. Just want to put that out there before
the auction ends.

Going high-tech, the 4x4 way

Is It An Off-Road Adventure Or Just A Walk In The Park?
I remember having to get out and lock hubs and shift into neutral to engage low range.
Coming off press previews of the 2013 Land Rover Range Rover and the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee that involved some heavy-duty off-road rock climbing, I'm simply amazed at the capabilities that these vehicles possess. But even more impressive (or troubling depending on your perspective) is the relative ease with which you can operate these vehicles in seemingly impossible terrain.

2.1 million vehicles recalled again over faulty airbags

Sat, Jan 31 2015

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Honda and Toyota will recall 2.1 million vehicles to fix faulty airbag modules "after the manufacturers' original attempts to fix the defects proved ineffective in some vehicles." These vehicles had all previously been recalled, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that the airbags could still potentially malfunction. This recall will cover Acura MDX, Dodge Viper, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Honda Odyssey, Pontiac Vibe, Toyota Corolla, Toyota Matrix and Toyota Avalon models made in the early 2000s. NHTSA has reportedly received about 40 reports of airbag deployment in such vehicles, even though the vehicle had not been involved in a crash. Roughly one million of these same vehicles, all from Honda and Toyota, are also subject to recalls due to faulty Takata airbag modules, though this particular recall is for "an electronic component manufactured by TRW" that is separate from the actual airbags from Takata. According to NHTSA Administrator Mark Rosekind: "This is unfortunately a complicated issue for consumers, who may have to return to their dealer more than once. But this is an urgent safety issue, and all consumers with vehicles covered by the previous recalls should have that remedy installed. Even though it's a temporary solution until the new remedy is available, they and their families will be safer if they take the time to learn if their vehicle is covered and follow their manufacturers' instructions. A hassle is much better than a family tragedy." If you're the owner of an affected car, expect to hear more from the official automaker and government channels in short order. In the meantime, we'd suggest getting your car checked and fixed at your local dealer. The official statement and recall information can be found below. Previously Recalled Vehicle Remedies Not Working as Designed; NHTSA Announces Follow up Recall of 2.12 Million Cars and SUVs Saturday, January 31, 2015 Contact: Gordon Trowbridge, 202-366-9550, Public.Affairs@dot.gov WASHINGTON – U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx announced today the recall of more than 2.12 million Acura, Dodge, Jeep, Honda, Pontiac, and Toyota vehicles for a defect that may cause airbags to deploy inadvertently. The recalls will provide vehicle owners with a new remedy after the manufacturers' original attempts to fix the defects proved ineffective in some vehicles.
