A well-regarded model from Jeep is the Jeep Commando, a pickup produced from 1967 to 1973. While initially it was known as the Jeepster Commando, eventually it was changed to Jeep Commando. The Commando was created to compete with the likes of the Broncos and Scouts. During 1972 and 1973, Jeep made many an excellent change to the venerable Commando, and it was the last two years of the Commando as well. A rare chance to own one of these iconic models is at hand with this 1973 Jeep Commando in topping condition. It comes with just 19,724 miles on the odometer, which is less than 500 miles driven per year since its manufacture!
Exterior and Interior
The 1973 Jeep Commando is painted in brilliant red, with the white "Commando" lettering done on each side of the rocker panels. The front facia features a sizeable egg-crate grille painted in white, accommodating the two headlights in red bezels and twin fog lights between the headlights. A chrome slim front fender is visible below the grille. This Commando has a white roof and rear window frames. The rear features a slanted design where the "Jeep" logo is visible on the tailgate and a rear chrome bumper. It sits on a set of OEM Jeep branded wheel covers done in chrome. The interior features an almost spartan decor, with bare minimal amenities. A rectangle directly in front of the driver houses the speedometer, odometer, and turn signals indicators. A rectangular box on the left-hand side contains the rocker switches for the lights, wipers, washers, and heater fan. The center of the dash is host to the Jeep branded radio. Overall, the tan color matches well with the entire color scheme of the Commando.
Engine
The seller reports that this 1973 Jeep Commando is a number matching motor and transmission example, although it is undocumented. During the last two years of the Commando, Jeep partnered with AMC to give the Commando an edge with their engine offerings. This Commando comes equipped with the AMC sourced 258ci straight-six engine mated to a 3-speed manual transmission. The seller also reports that the grounding issue was recently addressed while a new battery was added.

The 1955 Willys Jeep CJ-5 represents the early civilian evolution of the wartime Jeep formula, retaining the compact dimensions, simple mechanicals, and go-anywhere character that made the platform famous. Showing 32,946 miles, this example is finished in Forest Green with a Black/Gray vinyl interior and features the classic open-top CJ configuration with removable doors, a fold-down windshield, and a rear cargo area with a drop-down tailgate. Its 134ci Hurricane F-head four-cylinder, 3-speed manual transmission, and dual-range 4WD system give it the straightforward, mechanical driving experience that defines an early CJ.
This 1967 Jeep CJ-5 is the kind of early Jeep that reminds you why the CJ became such an enduring off-road icon in the first place. Showing approximately 1,922 miles, this example keeps the formula wonderfully simple with a 225ci V6, 4-speed manual transmission, and a Dana 18 twin-stick transfer case sending power through a Dana 27 front axle and Dana 44 rear axle. Finished in green over a reupholstered tan interior, it combines period-correct utility with just enough upgrades to make it more usable, including manual locking hubs, a power brake booster, and a spray-lined tub. It is compact, mechanical, and purpose-built in exactly the way vintage Jeep enthusiasts tend to appreciate.
This 2003 Jeep Wrangler Sahara takes the familiar TJ platform and gives it a much more personalized off-road character through a long list of visual and mechanical upgrades. Showing approximately 142,377 miles, it stands out immediately with its custom purple exterior finish, lifted stance, black hardtop, and matching purple accents throughout. Under the hood is a 4.0L Newcomer Racing naturally aspirated inline-6 paired with a 42RLE 4-speed automatic transmission and 4WD, while upgrades including a 3.5-inch suspension lift, Bilstein shocks, K&N intake, rock sliders, aftermarket bumpers, and recovery hardware give this Wrangler a more purposeful trail-ready presentation.
