AnotherOldJeepGuy Posted February 16 Posted February 16 I did look for a thread on this already to add to, but didn't really see one that was for non-comanche but still Jeep, so I guess I'll start it. This sure looks like a Jeep of some kind but I don't know what it is or from when it is. I see it around town from time to time so it seems like a good rare jeep thread starter...
Pete M Posted February 18 Posted February 18 spotted this beauty on the way home. unfortunately his turn light went first and I wasn't able to get any closer
eaglescout526 Posted February 18 Posted February 18 These are the only other Jeeps I have seen and I’ve seen the blue honcho twice, white one once and the SJ waggy twice. They’re trying to sell it. Also I’m throwing in some AMCs that you don’t see often. There’s 3 AMXs that are always there which is fricken awesome but when’s the last time you saw an ambassador: Or a matador And my friends chopped gremlin Seen this J-truck in the wild And saw a pacer in a yard Thats all I’ve seen minus MJs.
AnotherOldJeepGuy Posted March 4 Author Posted March 4 Spotted this Honcho today. Across a 5 lane street so I couldn't get close up, but looks pretty good from this distance.
The86manche Posted March 5 Posted March 5 Spotted in a yard local to me. Tempted to go back for that minty grille..
watchamakalit Posted March 5 Posted March 5 Looks pretty complete. I'd be tempted to go after the whole truck not just the grill
pizzaman09 Posted March 6 Posted March 6 That has the hurricane six cylinder in it! If I bought a classic Jeep of that vintage I have always had interest in that engine as it's the first American overhead cam 6 cylinder. Truck looks salvageable too.

It looks a little like an I6 from that camera angle, but it’s an AMC V8.

Hard to tell what the underside looks like with the snow. Floors were not good though. Poor patch job. And sadly around me salvage yards around me don't let you buy complete. That and once its in the yard, if it had a title its voided
The86manche Posted March 7 Posted March 7 Adding to the spotting list again, a cj5 i spotted at the same yard 1 week later. dauntless v6 that was locked up. Factory soft top, still had the amc logo sticker on one of the braces. Body was very straight but very rotted. And I found a jem in the back under a tire. Tempted to go back for the tailgate.
