UPDATE II: Amy is wondering if anyone knows where this Jeepster is? It was last for sale in Vermont in November of 2018 …

I spent my summers working on and going for drives in this car. It was my grandfather’s pride and joy. Please any information you have is appreciated.”
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $9800.
(07/26/2018) I like it, though I’m not a fan of the digital speedometer.
“1949 Willys Jeepster with a ford flathead engine five speed transmission ford rear end Mustang two front end and rack and Pinion steering Front disc brakes runs great is a fun jeep to drive”
It’s….so….pink…!
Love the flathead, but that’s about all.
I’M PRETTY SURE THIS IS — P=I=N=K ?? — OH WELL , BUY IT FOR THE WIFE ??? — I HAVE A PINK NORTH FACE VE-25 TENT — MADE FOR THE GREAT PEACE MARCH 1986 , LOS ANGELES TO WASHINGTON D.C. — WALKING — THEY CAME IN EASTER EGG COLORS , PASTEL BLUE , PINK , YELLOW , GREEN AND THE CLASSIC NORTH FACE GOLD — I HAVE ALL EXCEPT THE GREEN MODEL — VERY RARE AND VALUABLE — YOU HAVE TO BE A REAL MAN TO SET UP A PINK TENT AT BASE CAMP !!! — SEMPER FI !!!
Overall it looks like a well executed theme car, so I can better appreciate some of the features. I agree the flat head is a nice touch, don’t see many of those anymore. I would have stayed with more of the W-O detail parts, like steering wheel, dash and wheel covers.
When my daughter was in kindergarten, the teacher was reading an animal book to the class, and the last page featured a panther. As soon as the teacher read “panther”, my daughter piped right up loudly humming the theme to the classic Pink Panther cartoons, which I had been showing her on Youtube. The teacher was not amused.

Hello, I know I’m late to the party but does anyone know what happened to this car. It belonged to my grandfather. I was unable to buy it when he passed and to see it for sale again, it would mean the world to me to know where and if I can get it back. I spent my summers working on and going for drives in this car. It was my grandfather’s pride and joy. Please any information you have is appreciated.
Hi Amy,
I haven’t seen this Jeepster relisted on Craigslist lately (I also checked FB Marketplace just now), so it either sold or the seller pulled it from the market.
If you’d like, I can update the post and see if any readers bought this vehicle. If nothing else, if we can make contact with the new owner, they can learn more about the Jeepster.
Feel free to email me separately at d @ deilers.com (no spaces around the @).

Amy,
Finding a previously owned vehicle is almost impossible with out a whole lot of luck and blind faith. I have tried doing this with many of my old Willys vehicles over the years with no such luck. What is in your favor, is that this Jeepster was listed within the past two years, so that is in your favor. Most DMV,s are of no help at all, they only will do title searches for current owners. Although I have come across many vehicles that I recognized from my past, not one was one owned by me. Good luck in your search, We’ll all be on the lookout.
