Montana Offroad Posted March 30, 2025 Posted March 30, 2025 Hey guys, a while back I bought a Roll Bar off of a Comanche a few hours away from me. While I was there I noticed that the Comanche itself wasn’t in bad shape. It’s a 91’ HO Eliminator with 2WD It had under 150k miles on it if I remember right. It wasn’t perfect by any means but didn’t appear to be rusted out (most Montana jeeps aren’t) he said there was some blow by and that it probably needs a fuel pump. He said it turns over but he wouldn’t drive it with the fuel issue. Well this morning (a few months later) he offered to sell me the jeep for $1500! It feel like a steal but what do you guys think it’s worth worst case scenario if the engine was shot or something? here’s a picture: These photos were before the roll bar was removed. What does everything think? It does have a sliding glass window and what looks to be a rare original grill guard on the front. The interior was relatively clean as well. I would love to hear everyone’s thought. Keep in mind, id have to rent a truck and trailer and drive 4 hours there and 4 back to get it. Thanks!
89 MJ Posted March 30, 2025 Posted March 30, 2025 I think that's a pretty good deal. I paid $1500 for mine back in 2018 and it had rust, dents, the Peugeot transmission, and a rod knocking 4.0. The only thing that my truck had that makes it arguably more desirable than the one you posted is that it is 4 wheel drive. But being an Eliminator, that truck should be very well optioned. Bucket seats, most likely a tilt column, AC, etc.
fiatslug87 Posted March 30, 2025 Posted March 30, 2025 Sounds like a good deal if there’s no rust and the body is straight. Everything else is “easily” fixed. That brush guard looks to be upside down or something.
Pete M Posted March 30, 2025 Posted March 30, 2025 I'd buy a super clean truck for 1500 even if I KNEW the engine was blown.
Manche757 Posted March 30, 2025 Posted March 30, 2025 That looks like a bargain. I am in Northwest Montana and know someone who would be interested if you are not.
Salvagedcircuit Posted March 31, 2025 Posted March 31, 2025 Step 1: Collect $1500 Step 2: Book it over to that seller and hand em $1500 Step 3: Drive it back home in style Sunset

pizzaman09 Posted April 5, 2025 Posted April 5, 2025 Is it an AX-15 or AW4? Awesome Eliminator, the Chrysler graphics are better than the AMC ones for the Eliminator.
