This 1968 Jeep Jeepster Commando was purchased by the seller out of California following a 7 year period of disuse and benefits from a bare metal repaint as well as a refreshed interior. Power comes from the believed original 225ci V6 mated to a T14 3-speed manual gearbox and recent maintenance included changing various filters, installing a new Holley carburetor, flushing the gas tank, as well as changing fluids for both differentials, transmission, and transfer case. Modifications include a 2″ suspension lift, body lift, upgraded body mounts, and a set of American Racing Wheels. This Commando is now offered with receipts for the recent refurbishment and a clean California title in the seller’s name.

The truck received a bare metal repaint in Chrysler Bright White with Commando scripts and is fitted with a satin hardtop. A metal patch was reportedly welded to the side of the hood to repair an area of rust and according to the seller, the truck has remained in California for most of its life.

A 2″ suspension lift and 2″ body lift are fitted, along with high performance polyurethane body mount bushings and grade-8 bolts. Other alterations include custom leaf springs, upgraded bushings, and high performance gas shocks. A set of 15″ American Racing wheels wear 33×12.5″ BF-Goodrich All-Terrain tires at each corner.

Interior refreshments include bucket seats and sun visors upholstered in black/white vinyl houndstooth, a refurbished dash-pad, a dual-tone horn wired to the factory button, and a rubberized coating applied to the floors and bed. A pair of Jeep-branded all weather mats are fitted and the odometer currently displays just over 36k miles, about 1,000 of which have been added by the seller.

Power is from a 225ci Buick-derived Dauntless V6 producing 160 horsepower and 235 lb-ft of torque from the factory. Power is routed through a T14 floor-mounted 3-speed manual gearbox and maintenance conducted by the seller following a period of inactivity included installing a 500 cfm Holley 2-barrel carburetor, spark plug wires, distributor, cap, rotor, coil, ignition points, and fuel/air filters.

Additional underbody photos are viewable in the gallery and recent maintenance included changing fluids for the front and rear differentials, as well as the transmission and transfer case. A driving video can be seen below.
