This was the Jeep that was on the Western Command homepage.
The seller purchased the Jeep in 1988 and shortly after, parked the Jeep on wood blocks and covered it with two tarps and then moved out of the country. It was in full running condition at the time he parked it on Bowen Island (he drove it down to an Oregon MV Show in 1988). Recently the seller wanted to dispose of it as he was selling the property the Jeep was on and had not seen the Jeep in 24 years. After a significant number of email exchanges (as the seller lives in Singapore), we worked out a price for the Jeep sight unseen. Yesterday I went with two friends on a short ferry ride, luckily met a tow truck driver on the ferry and after about an 8 hour day including 2 hours with the tow truck, I had the jeep sitting in my garage. It is very complete including all of the data and wheelhouse patent plates and full softtop with doors, the only items missing are one rear lifting shackle, driver's side seat, and spare tire (the seller is sure he has the spare tire and seat and will look for it when he gets here in May). It will need a complete mechanical overhaul and new floors. Not bad for a "Forest Find". Other stuff I know about it:
