Hmm… this is opportunity #3 to have a shot at this truck for me. :rolleyes:

it's only going to get more expensive each time. :D 


Seems to be the reason I’ve passed on it before. Good to see it available again. This is the only known remaining SCCA Comanche that’s not in a private collection.

Has anyone else kept an eye on this all week also? I haven’t closed the window since the auction started and it’s getting down to the end. Just got to $7k… long way from where I think it should be.

For what it really is, I honestly think that was a fair buy. The truck would be hard to use as a truck anymore and wouldn’t be a terribly quick rig around a track, so it isn’t terribly useable. I think it would be an absolute blast to drive at an auto cross style event, but I don’t think it would be really useable for much else. It does have the fact that it is a part of Jeep racing history going for it though, and if I would’ve had the money, I would have bought it.

Race cars don't really sell very well as people want vehicles that can be used on the street typically.  I'm a fairly active BaT user, I was actually the first person to auction a Comanche on the site.  Consistently, the more modified from stock a vehicle is, the less it is typically worth.  

 

I think this one sold pretty well, definitely would have considered it if I wasn't working on building a house.  I really want to autocross my Comanche, this would have been the perfect one for that.

Someone should download all those pictures to the site before the ad listing expires. As said, those are a great resource for a replica or tribute vehicle build. I was really suprised by the rear mono leaf setup, The billet rear sway bar mounts, and what appears to be a mostly stock TBI 2.5. Love it.
