Rare Commando

Hurst Commando on BAT
https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1971-jeep-jeepster-commando-15/

 

Price jumped up right away! Will be interesting to see the final price.

 

It looks like it is straight out of a hurbie movie.
I can smell it from here.

 

A bit of Grandpa's truck and Lean mean racing machine. No cats and a little rich.

 

There's some grumblings in the comments about the vin/ paint code etc. If it is a manual Hurst Commando it is extremely rare

 

I never understood why these didn't get cool wheels. Jeep could have at least put the Renegade mags on them.

 

Keeping an eye on it, waiting to see if there's a reply to my sequence number question from the seller. Now that nothumn has asked some questions we'll see how true this one is.

 

I think it's the real deal, one of the pictures shows remnants of the window sticker and the Hurst option is clearly listed.

 

I just noticed the hubcaps, 2 early and 2 intermediate?

 

Those firewall crayon marks behind the battery I believe tell a lot about this one being the real deal. I have never heard of any trans in these besides the TH400 automatic. This one could be particularly rare.

I have a question
didn't commandos have a V6 emblem at top edge of door

 

Not all of them.

 

The seller answered some hard questions, and I believed all along it is a true Hurst JC. The manual version is a lot more rare than the automatic.

Yes, it was quite the battle and to end at $85K, Wow!
