Hey all. Glad someone posted a link to my YouTube video.

If you check out my channel, you can see a few more of the Laserdiscs I have bought and converted. I have a stack of them yet to be done. Each disc has all the dealer promo stuff, informational videos for sales training, and any commercials and spots that werenon air for that year. I even have the 2.1L Renault turbo diesel technicians Laserdisc with the work book for the test after the video.

I moderate over at www.comancheclub.com and watermarked all the videos so no one could take credit for the conversion... As well as maybe get some more people on by us.

Check out the almost 20 minute long product comparison that is army themed when they compare the MJ to the competition... It's a good laugh.

Rob

Did you see the painted steering components.

And hell I've done speeds on unmanned gravel roads and its fun. Usually do it with front sway bar attached and you don't even feel it.

Although that's some crazy **** driving through trees that fast

Go watch some of the dealer MJ videos. One of them has a pack of MJs making their way along a race track. Good stuff! Way better than new Jeep ads

It would be marketing genius if Jeep were to run this video during the superbowl - guaranteed!

Also, I am making my headlights red now.

Apparently produced in '88, and ripped from Laserdisc by some guys on Comanche Club.

Me wonders if any forum members were driving any of these... we keep hearing how cuiser54 engaged 4x4 at >70 MPH...
