A guy in my club has one on 33s or 35s. He's got a really low CG. He takes it over everything. HE can stick his leg out and touch the ground with his foot while driving it's so low

that looks like either a scout or a bronco if your talkin about the one in the front.
It's a Commando, like this one.



They went with a Scoutish, Broncoish front end for awhile.

Here is a 68 Jeepster on the frame of an 86 Bronco. It belongs to a guy in my club. The second picture is right after he rolled it on its first trail run. Notice the smashed up windshield in the back. He let it sit for a while then fired it right back up and wheeled the rest of the day.

That can't be right. That looks like a custom morphe job or something. Now I have to search the internet to see if there is more of these strange creatures. That grill just looks wrong. I can't believe Jeep ever put a grill like that on thier vehicle.

Hmmm. I guess he's right. From http://www.jeep-commando.com/jeepster-commando-history.asp

The Jeep Commando was manufactured between 1966 to 1973. From 1966 to 1971 the Jeep Commando had a front grille that resembled more like a CJ. In 1972, AMC changed the front of the jeep to look more like a passenger car.

Wow, those are pretty. Now here is one geting destroyed:
Jimmy was fine and wheeled the rest of the day. It was scary though bc he had just welded in a roll bar in the day before "just in case"
