Haven’t seen a Commando in years.

Sometime back when I had to endure the Jonesboro storytelling festival a few years in a row, going into town at a small garage was a Commando that never got touched.

It was in the same spot with the same flat front passenger tire.

I just recently learned that the frame dimensions of the early Commandos (pre-1973) are exactly the same as those of the CJ6.

The body on my Commando is in very bad shape and replacement body parts for them are hard to find. So, I'm thinking about making it into a CJ/Commando hybrid. Single piece replacement body tubs are still available for the CJ6 in either steel or fiberglass.

They are quite expensive, though, so I find myself at that crossroads where I need to decide whether I'm going to fix the thing up as a "decent beater" Jeep, or whether to sink some real money in to it and make it a show-piece.
