Very nice old jeeps I still wish they made them today
Love the ‘48. Man that thing is cool. What a great cruiser

It's like taking a step back in time every time you drive it. Thanks for watching!
Truly Epic! Thank you for the video!
My first 4x4 was a 1967 Jeepster Commando V6, mildly modified on 8.90-16 tires. Lot of good memories from that time.
Very cool seeing both versions on the Commando side by side.

Love my jeepster commando ❤❤❤
Nice to see someone else that knows the difference between all of these Jeeps… Soo many are clueless. Thanks.

In high school, my best friend got a 67 commando with 12k miles on it and we drove all over in it. We did get it up to 110 mph on a trip to San Diego. About a year after graduation I got a 68 Commando that was more of a Frankenstein machine and always had something wrong with it until my ex wife got it in 98. It was fun when it ran.
Another great video, thanks for showing us around those vehicles, and how they drive. It is interesting to see the Jeepster up close, my Dad has a 49 Jeepster VJ6 he has been restoring for many years, we are in the final stages. Yes we witnessed how solid the frame is underneath. Interesting to learn about the overdrive, you mentioned that it goes into neutral when you lift your foot off the accelerator, we did not know about that. Dad has not driven it yet as it was in a barn when he purchased it 20 years ago. Dad also has an AMC Mighty Mite which we spotted in the background. Another fun vehicle to drive. He restored it and it is used occasionally.
Watching this video I felt I was in Jeep heaven! Sooo many vintage Jeeps to see in one building. You're a fortunate man and very knowledgeable. Thanks !

My wife and I have driven our 48 about 10,000 miles traveling around the country. We have the Hurricane 6 cylinder and avoid interstates. The Go-devil was better for tractors and Jeeps but will get you there when time is not a factor.
Amazing episode, I’ve only recently discovered your channel and I’m loving it

Thank you, that makes all the work worth it. 🙏
I have a running "project", 1978 right steering, Automatic, 2 wheel drive, 232 straight 6, AM General Postal Jeep. I take it to estate sales, swap meets, and around town. With the rear "cargo" door and sliding suicide doors, it holds a surprisingly large amount of cargo.

I have a 72 DJ-5 as well. Crazy how much cargo you can carry.
I have a 1951 jeepster with 4x4 and a chevy engine you can see it on uncle robs garage.
Very nice collection. A lot of work there.

I've got a 71 Jeepster commando, same color as the one you have there. It hasn't run since 2008, but now that I'm an empty nester coming up this Fall, my goal is to get it back on the road. It's been garaged most of it's life so it's in pretty good shape.

That's awesome. I hope to see it out on the road sometime.
This is a great video! I bought a 73 Commando a few months ago, same color as your 72. I’ll like to install larger tires in it. Can you share what tire size you have in yours? Thank you!
So the Jeepster is not an all terrain vehicle. Is rear wheel drive? Great video!!!

Still very capable, but it was designed as a touring car. In the 30s and 40s, they were very popular.
Is the museum open to the public? I would love to see it… I have 7 vintage Jeeps and have my own mini museum…

I have a question. I happen to have a 48 jeepster that I am planning on restoring. Where did you obtain a new soft top from?

We got it from Jeepsterman or kaiserwillys online. I can't remember for sure which.
Is that dauntless supposed to tap like that? Cuz my rebuilt brand new dauntless sounds exactly like yours…tap tap tap… been trying to figure out what it is and i can’t…

My dauntless doesn't tap that I remember, but the 304 in my 72 Commando does. It's a lifter. I have new ones for it. I just haven't had the time to replace them yet.
What kind of stereo did you put in your 72?

I dont remember the exact brand but it was a company on Ebay that sells vintage radios that have Bluetooth and hidden USB ports.
