CROWN C104 Jeep Commando - SEMA 2023

[wayoflife]

Without question, the C104 Commando with it's bullnose or "conventional" grill, was the most ugly vehicle that Jeep has ever made. For the 2 years that they were in production, only 20,000 or so were made and even now, I have a hard time looking at them but... it's why I think their so cool. Fortunately, Crown brought this fine specimen to the 2023 SEMA Show and I was all to happy to see it.

[jeeeep]

that's some serious shine to be able to see reflections like that.

wow! I always thought those were some type of body kit conversion, like the VW hood conversion kits.

I see vintage mustang in the interior and hubcaps. And early blazer in the grill.
but I’d own it

I love ugly Jeeps. I don’t think I’d own one if it was given to me.

Lol, my buddy had one of these with a hard top going through high school. His had the 304 in it but in such a little package was fast as stink. we had a blast in that thing. Bet thats a sleeper with the 401 in it. this gaudy paint job makes it look even uglier.

Such an odd duck. Beautiful car though.

I thought the same thing until I saw one in the wild and they owner told me that was the factory grille for certain years.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...and that rear bumper is a piece of work...

 

[kevman65]

That is a beautiful, ugly, unique, wonderfully restored piece of old iron.

Joe Dirt style

 

[Trail Bud]

The top looks like an oversized hat.
But I kinda like it.

 

[Bear_JT]

These are cool but I can see the Adam’s Family wheeling it.

Imagine the designers saying “man I think we nailed it on this one.”

 

[Bullwinckle]

Well I like the color but hard not to admire a classic.

LOL - like I said, it's gotta be the ugliest Jeep ever made, bar none. I'd want one just because of it.

Imagine the designers saying “man I think we nailed it on this one.”

LOL - no kidding. It's sad because this was Jeep's attempt to better compete with Scout and Bronco at the time.
