A true convertable, no less. Welcome to the sickness. I have three C-101s at
the moment.

I wanted to buy a Commando before I got my Wrangler. Congrats Bill,
Treat her well.

Don't knock it till you try it. The T-400 is one of the best autos out there
and the 225 is a tourqey little sucker. Power disk front brakes would be a
wise add-on.

She didn't know what's wrong with it, nor how long it hasn't been
running. It doesn't look like it got that many miles, other than it's been
left out in the sun, it's got the stock looking white walls. I remember the
plastic timing gear would give up at about seventy thousand miles, which
used to fool a lot of mechanics, those that don't know to retard the spark,
to test start. Oh well, the Chevy will bolt to the Hydromantic.

Thanks, Bookmarked.
I should have bought your Friends Wagoneer, That's what I was looking
for, maybe something a little bigger like a Blazer or Ford pickup to pull my
CJ-2A, to replace my biannual SMOG Bronco, how that Arnie took away my
thirty year exemption! My waiting 429" tunnel port dream died:

I'm 65! I still have a CJ-2A and '57 Bird with close ratio four speeds.
Remember I use to drive eighteen speeds, I'm tired of shifting! Besides I
use to race a B&M Hydro: http://www.billhughes.com/B%26Msticker.jpg

Thanks, I'm going to try to keep stock, except for the roll bar, unless
it's thrown a rod.

I have owned some sort of a Jeep just about every day since I was 19.
NONE was better in any way than my 1976 (I think) Jeepster. Used it a

truck" beach buggy... even with my wife driving it that J was
unstoppable in the sand. Your pix makes a geezer pine for the old

Yeah good luck Bill at 65 and still building them. I was wondering if
I was foolish for just getting into working on cars(well my YJ anyway)
the past 4 years when I was just 48!
Looks like a it will be fun.
