The Comanche were the last of the AMC/Jeep design. Most of the factory evolutions on mine where done while Jeep was a mostly separate unit of Chrysler.
Still an accumulation of parts from all over the globe but those parts work well together.
Mine is the 4 liter 6 -- derived from the old bullet proof AMC 6. Just about ready to rebuild it as it has over 300k miles on it.
And @misterG It's a 91 short wheelbase 4x4, 6 with the 5 speed. Spent most of it's life in Cali. Got it to do the rock crawling thing but ended up liking the truck too much as a daily driver.

Makes that caddy 48 era v8 look like a soviet ignot of aluminim with bad machining.AModelCat Thanks this. -
Looking at my dash. Wondering if powder coat would be better than paint? I've got a few holes to fill in for where the radio bracket was mounted and I'm turfing the 3 brake valves for an MV3 dash valve. Might fill in the patched areas better than paint?
Bean Jr. Thanks this. -

Just getting caught back up on this thread after a while away.
Man, how freaking awesome is it that a previous owner found you restoring his old ride? That's awesome!
Also, that kitty painted up white looks Beautiful!!
As far as powder coating goes, I'd say that if you've got a shop that does good work in your area, go ahead and mock it up with everything you might want on / in the dash so you won't be needing to change everything and go for it.
A good powder coating outfit can do wonders!
Definitely plan on having a lot of interior parts coated when I finally get around to my resto-mod. But I'm also wanting to do a mix of a retro dash, with a hint of modern, some style of the mid to late 90's easy reach box. That's a long ways off though so I've got time to figure it out.Isafarmboy and AModelCat Thank this. -
