It is a killer commando at a really, really good price.

Jory, the owner and i have traded many emails regarding this nice jeepster.
Homey G, an old time CJA member, was contemplating trading a Rzr.
It just didn't work out.

About 3 months later i pursued it. i did a lot of due diligence on the seller. He is solid.

The ONLY reason i did not jump on a plane to Salt Lake was because the harsh reality was that it would not fit in my garage. :(
It was too long.

This is a rig that you could drive 15 hours back to Calgary and get good mpg. :o  700R4 has a beautiful OD.
The tires are great on the highway. It has a hard top too.

If ANYONE is seriously thinking of buying a nice old jeep. Do it.

He hasn't driven it much over the last 2 years, so i would arrange to get a trustworthy name off of Pirate that can get it looked over before the journey home.
or
get it transported.

i had Jory send me tons of pics.  Surface rust only.
i also had bnine check it out, and got the green light.

Damn, it was just too long.

But, i did find a CJ5 after losing out on a CJ7 from California 8)
