UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

(11/19/2012) This Jeepster has an unusual pattern or design on the door. Looks good otherwise.

“This is a great car, fun to drive and a real head turner. I purchased this last winter from a private seller in AZ who had been rebuilding it and he tried to keep it as original as possible. It was near finished and I added a few things to it. Here is a list.

New: top and side curtains, frame for top, gas tank and sending unit, exhaust pipe and muffler, fuel pump, turn signals, hub caps, seats covers, a new overdrive, chrome bumpers, headlight hoods, exhaust deflector, steering wheel with suicide knob, outside mirrors, dash nobs. The engine is a totally rebuilt 4 cyl. (lead-free gas) by a Jeep expert in Phoenix and it has a newer paint job with a few small road chips (see pictures) and almost all of the chrome is new and looks excellent. I had a slider built for the driver’s seat so it can be adjusted. It is a six volt system and has radial tires that are like new. It has always been garaged.”

“No rust Jeepster. You are considering bidding on a very nice (not perfect) example of an all-American, post-war classic; the Willys Overland Jeepster, from my mother’s hometown, Toledo, Ohio. This was the first, on-road Jeep available, post World War II. This car has the original, four-cylinder, flat head, 62 horsepower, Go-Devil engine. I purchased this vehicle in late Autumn of 2011, as a winter restoration project and it is now complete. I was able to acquire the vehicle at a very reasonable price, which prompted my purchase. The Jeepster was owned by the same family for the past thirty-seven years, however it wasn’t driven often. Consequently, when I acquired the Jeepster, many small (and, some big) things needed attention, simply due to lack of use. The body is very straight and solid. I recently had the fenders and aprons painted gloss black and the Michigan Yellow body color, repainted. All five tires are new. Once the car arrived, I handed the vehicle over to my mechanic and he performed the following work . . .(read the rest on eBay)”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $14,000.

This Jeepster looks solid.

Recently rebuilt Kaiser super sonic flathead 6 motor. New canvas top, original design. Black with red piping.
NADA classic car list: $18,500. Solid body, no rust. Just over 19,000 made from 1948-1950. Approx. 3,000 runnig.”

UPDATE:  **SOLD** was $7995.

Except for a little damage on the passenger side rear fender, this appears in good shape.

“Willy’s Jeepster 1951 $7995. Very origional condition, ready for restoration, 6 cyl, 3 speed, overdrive, 2 wheel drive. Complete and solid.”

The buy-it-now price is only $8500. This needs a few things, but is a solid start for a nice restoration.

“his is a 1948 Willys Jeepster. It has overdrive. The Engine is original and runs great with no problems. Was rebuilt 10 years ago. The tranny shifts with no problems. I do not have the air filter, or radio. The car is currently painted Yellow/Black. It is an original Maroon car. The interior on the car is in great shape. No rips in the seats. The carpet is there but would need to be replaced. The dash cluster needs restoring. The speedometer needle is broken off and not currently hooked up. The fuel gauge isn’t working. This body and sheet metal on the car is solid with surface rust in a few areas. There is 1 rust through hole under the rear seat. All chrome is there but would need to be re chromed if a restoration is desired. This is a car that can be easily restored or just drive it the way it is. This is a very original car.”

“Selling a very restorable 51 Jeepster. This vehicle has been in storage for many years. The gas tank was removed before storage and is clean and dry. I did have this Jeep running off of a gas can and it runs well and holds good oil preasure and does not overheat. It does have an overdrive transmission. As you can see in the pictures it will need to be restored but is complete.

The floors on the driver’s front, right front, and right rear were repaired and welded in. I have removed the seats so you can see what the floor looks like through out the entire vehicle. The frame and the rest of the undercarriage are in good shape. It has been repainted but does not appear to have any rust bubbles or filler poping out. The right rear fender will need some work as it looks to have been bent and pulled back.

UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was $18,500

I like the paint scheme on this one.

“This beautiful 1948 Willys Overland Jeepster drives like a dream machine from yesteryear. She is a three-speed around town show off with overdrive for the highway cruises. Her Arizona heritage has kept her young and, with the incredible showroom paint, she is truly the best car you will ever still consider a driver.

Is she flawless? What girl is? She has two small repairs to her newly treated vinyl ( shown still uncolored – since almost invisible ). One chrome side step has a flake or two in the chrome. Paint on steering wheel logo center faded ( thought better to not restore ). Other than that…

She is all original except the addition of a 12 volt alternator, electric fuel pump (original still attached) and gas tank. Inside, look at the knock out beautiful white interior, drop top, windows and boot. Also, the new stereo. Correct and original chrome inside and out as well as the right steering wheel and badges. Newly rebuilt engine and overhauled brakes plus correct wheels with brand new beauty rings and hubcaps.

There are no surprises with this car. She is not a frame-off concourse competition winner, but instead an incredibly well preserved forever-keeper car with no disappointments. Low reserve compared to market.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay. The buy-it-now price was $10,000.

“BARN FIND! 1950 Willys Overland Jeepster. Restored 20 years ago and has had little use since. This unique vehicle. Is ready to go. Unique Maroon exterior with Black interior. Original 4 cylinder engine with 3 speed transmission.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

Here’s another nice looking Jeepster from Jeepster Jim.

“Really nice Jeepster that does not need Restoration. The top is ok and the interior is nice. It has the side curtains and runs and drives great, including the overdrive. It has new wheels and tires and comes with an original, working factory heater. The chrome is in good condition and the lights and the horn also work. I’d feel comfortable driving this car anywhere.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $10,900.

This looks like a time machine that would take me back to the 1950s.

”  Representing the perfect car for the Islands, Beach house, or just traveling on the coastal roads, this 1949 Willy’s Jeepster is both unique and fun.
Powered by a overhead valve four cylinder engine, coupled to a three speed manual transmission with overdrive, it is quite spry and cruises nicely at highway speeds.
Limited numbers of this year were produced, resulting in their somewhat scarcity and adding to their collectibility.
Representing a older restoration with very nice seating, its a driver quality car. Everything works and the engine and transmission perform flawlessly with no unusual noises or smoke. Additionally it is fitted with a new convertible top and boot. Approximately 70K miles.
Certainly a great vintage, classic, antique and collectible car to own and drive. Additionally a great investment car.
Fully serviced with fresh oils, new battery etc…”

I think I like this one better than the red.  Must be the yellow . . .
