I believe Bob Roggy, a POR member has a
Commando, although it's far from stock. There
is also a guy on here that has a Commando that's
called project no-bucks that lives in Marquette, Mi.

I do, Rockhog does, Roggy's is (was), and there are a few more on here that do. There are also at least two that compete in ARCA. Best place to check for info on building a Commando is to check the <a href="http://bbs.off-road.com/wwwthreads//postlist.pl?Cat=&Board=offroadjeepjeepster&page=0&view=expanded&sb=5">AJC's BBS</a>.

I just got a "new" '68 last week ... bone stock but I got a lot of low gear stuff waiting to go into it this winter. The good thing about it is the fact that it isn't as top-heavy as my Willys wagon. Much easier to keep the shiny side up.

I can't find any pictures, but ARCA competitor and UROC mastermind Craig Stumph runs a Commando. You can contact him through UROC.
