With a lift that would be sick! Still stumped on how they got that together.

Man oh man! That's cool. Looks like they did a decent job, too! Does it have a frame tied into unibody? Any more pics?

No I didnt get anymore pics. I was on my lunch break and the guy pulled in while I was out eating.

It looks like the front half of a 4dr cherokee that he cut just behind the front doors, used the rear door hinges of the cherokee to hold the doors of the commanche (which have been chopped and sectioned). He then welded the commanche B-pillar into the cherokee roof. I would have liked to put the thing on a lift and see how well it was all tied together. It also had a 97+ conversion on the front.

But, its for sale.....that's right this beast could be yours!!!

Pretty cool. Ashame he thinks it's 4x the size it actually is and can't fit it in a parking space.

So next time you get bored take the commanche and drive it as fast as you can into the back of your Xj. Smash, crunch, bang...... TADA!!! haha

Those built ones are sooo awesome. I feel like that would be a lot of drive shaft extending and other weird stuff though... Lot of work

They may be photochopped but its totally possible. With a welder, knowledge, and little bit of bondo, oh and time, it could be done. Sorry about the spelling your right.
