The record

AMC could not get enough of the Renegade’s alloy wheels in 1973 and sold the Super Jeep in its place: the 258 six, chrome bumpers, a padded roll bar, denim-look seats and a bold hood and side stripe on painted steel wheels. About 300 were built in a single model year.

Research status: draft — identification, dates or figures could not all be pinned down; the summary says what is unresolved.

AI rendering impression

An AI rendering impression starts from a 3D model of this vehicle, which an image model then paints into a scene. It is an artist's impression of the type, made to give a feel for the vehicle in its element — not a photograph, and not a record of any particular vehicle.

Proportions, fittings, markings, colours and the setting can all drift from the original in the process. For the vehicle's actual details, rely on the specification, the photographs and the cited sources on this page.
