5.3L Vortec-Powered 1971 Jeep Jeepster Commando

This 1971 Jeep Jeepster Commando station wagon was acquired by the seller from the original owner in 2016 and was subsequently refurbished. Work included installing a 5.3-liter Vortec V8, repainting the exterior blue and white, and refreshing the interior. The truck rides on a lifted suspension over front disc brakes and US Mags wheels, and it is also equipped with a Dakota Digital instrument cluster, a RetroSound head unit, wind-up windows, and aftermarket audio components. This Jeepster Commando is offered with an uninstalled bikini-style soft top, spare parts, and a Pennsylvania title in the seller’s name.

The truck was repainted blue and white during the refurbishment and is equipped with chrome bumpers, a seven-slot grille, V8 badging, and an exposed fuel filler cap.

US Mags 15” wheels are mounted with 1″ spacers and wrapped in 32×11.5″ BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 tires. The truck is equipped with manually locking front hubs, and the suspension has been modified with a 4″ leaf spring lift kit. Stopping power is provided by front disc and rear drum brakes.

The cabin features seating surfaces upholstered in black vinyl, and bedliner material has been applied to the floors. Appointments include a RetroSound head unit, wind-up windows, and a Kwik Wire wiring harness.

The two-spoke steering wheel frames a Dakota Digital instrument cluster. The digital odometer shows 52k miles.

The 5.3-liter Vortec V8 was sourced from a 2006 Chevrolet Silverado and was installed in 2017. An oil change was performed in preparation for the sale.

Power is sent to the rear or all four wheels through a rebuilt GM TH400 three-speed automatic transmission and a dual-range transfer case. A Tom Wood’s rear driveshaft is fitted.

The Pennsylvania title has an Antique brand.
