1967 Commando

Almost forgot this one. It actually came before the Scrambler. Found it in the paper for dirt cheap, guy thought the motor was bad. Towed it home, put a battery and an airfilter in it and drove it around that day. My dad had one when I was a kid, so the Commando held a special spot in my heart. Turns out unlocked axles, limited travel and tired drivetrain limited its abilities. Did some wheelin' in the local desert and wife drove it around a bit.  


High Desert Roundup with the Drifters Jeep club. Did this one solo, so slept in the Burb. Super relaxing. I may build another one of these some day. Needed cash for the Scrambler project so sold it to a buddy.
