AMC-JEEP PICKUPS

AMC purchased Jeep in February 1970. By now the 1 ton and 1/2 ton trucks introduced by Willys had been discontinued, as well as the FC-series trucks. What was left was the Gladiator and Commando trucks. After 1973, the Commando was discontinued, and The Gladiator was given a facelift and a new name. The trucks would now be referred to as the J-series trucks i.e. J-10, J-20, etc. The grille for 1973 was also new, along with some various other small changes. The most important one was the introduction of Quadra-Trac as an option of the J-series trucks. These trucks soldiered on until 1988 by which time Chrysler had acquired Jeep.

1975 Jeep J-10. This pickup was going to be fixed up but the guy ran out of money to do it. You can read about it by clicking here.

1986 Jeep CJ-10 aircraft tug spotted recently on a government surplus website.

Another one from the same website.

Here is the interior of the aircraft tug. Not much in the means of luxury, or even a dashboard, but it gets the job done.

1986 Jeep J-10. This was the last year that they made these, but a few runoff models made it to 1987-1988.

Jeep advertisement from 1979. The J-10 is in the middle and I think it is a blue honcho like the one featured elsewhere on this page.

Self explanatory. Jeep special equipment and accessories, including side guard rails for J-10.
