Nice! I’m the Jeep guy who saw it in Oakdale first, but decided to pass on it due to no storage, and wanting a stick. FYI, I pulling the plugs then lubed and fogged the cylinders before trying to turn the engine. It turned easily with a wrench. While waiting for the cylinders to soak, I aired up the tires and made sure the brakes weren’t frozen. How about all that service history and documentation in the glove box? Now I’m kicking myself, but glad it will be saved. Thanks for posting!
We're underway on our own abandoned commando project over here, the early style. I wish the body on ours was in as good of shape! Part 1: th-cam.com/video/d1HYoqfk0s4/w-d-xo.html Part 2: th-cam.com/video/0KfZlLGEbak/w-d-xo.html

I bought an faded Red 72 Commando with a 304 V8 and an Auto for my girlfriend a couple months ago and it had been sitting for almost 15 years !
I know that feeling rough ride . I’m changing to disc brakes, new shocks, and suspension seats
Nice, I'll be getting this one on the road as is before I make any upgrades.
@@TrulyMotors Just curious, do you have any plans to sell this vehicle?
@@johnmiller2923 Eventually yes, but not after I have some fun with it.
@@TrulyMotors Understood. I would be possibly interested in it, when you’re done ‘having fun’. Where are you located?
Western Pennsylvania
