1973 AMC Jeep Commando Dealer Commercial

[@MOTORFREAKER]

Amazing !...I have a '73 model in stock condition in south France !!... JEEP GUTS !!!...

[@BrenGun1971]

Yeah, I know the feeling. I actually owned a '71 Hurst Jeepster Commando and sold it a decade and a half back... Man...

[@BrenGun1971]

Yeah, you got that right. Back in the early 90's when I started buying and fixing and driving jeeps I don't think that I paid any more than $500 for any of them, that included the Hurst, a complete '53 M38A1, a '64 CJ5 with a plow and my first a beat up old postal DJ5. Nowadays you're right, forget about buying something like those for less than a few grand... shoulda kept them!

[@BrenGun1971]

And they should all still be built this way!

[@BrenGun1971]

@taiyo06 Thanks for the heads up! He certainly was in the right line of work!

[@kingelvis7035]

Based off CJ-8 aka extended jeep which became Scrambler in 1981. They got rid of that ugly classic front clip for that smooth and Bronco esque grille (eyeroll). One of the weirder Jeeps and seems to mimic the jeepster as if that was a good thing.

@MOTORFREAKER Nice! Hope that you enjoyed the video!

I suspect a Jeep Commando for a couple of grand would be a very beat up vehicle with not much but the frame. For one in great condition with good engine and drive train I bet 10-15 grand would be like it. But I can always go to youtube and watch videos and say to myself, "I used to have a Jeep and I used to do that, too!"

44sharpshooter I just bought a 1972 commando in very good condition, except for some body flaws on the right door and front fender for $4000 at an auction. You can get one for a very reasonable price.

[@eanspencer1530]

I bought mine 6 years ago in great condition from a fool who gave it away for a one grand

[@TheBrooklynbodine]

That's Jackson Beck doing the voiceover, isn't it?

[@BrenGun1971]

@nekro99 Very true, there is just something about them that's timeless.

[@elviejo0056]

Best ever.

[@BrenGun1971]

Well said. We're pretty far removed from the actual driving experience nowadays.

[@CaptTetanus]

this is fuckin awesome!! ive been looking for these for years!..i have a 1978 Orange Cherokee Chief..my vids are up on my profile..would you by some chance have any of the 1978 Cherokee Chief ads you could upload????

[@44sharshooter]

@nekro99 I had a 1969 Jeepster Com convertible with Buick v-6 that would go anywhere and look great doing it. Too bad I got rid of it 20 years ago. I was an idiot back then!

[@ronkasaback9763]

I had one also, yellow with a black soft top. Its grill made it a classic. Only trouble, mine rusted badly.

[@charleswhite1647]

What's that black thing in place of the bumper

[@gordongreninger6109]

Charles White Push Bumper. Commonly seen on service station support trucks, farm vehicles, race car tow rigs, etc etc

[@goldridgedesign9069]

I've got one of these, its missing the floor i need to fix that

[@zulaivalero]

lo mejor ajala volviera a tener uno

[@44sharshooter]

So now that it's too late, what if we wanted to buy one again today? That would mean some serious cash output. Many times more than what we sold them for years ago. Should have kept 'em. Sigh!

[@milfordcivic6755]

it's part Bronco part Jeep part gremlin

[@fabiom2842]

Motor v8

[@nathanduckeorth806]
