About The Jeepsterman….

The JeepsterMan has been around since the 1960’s and was started by Morris Ratner who is pictured on the site. We still honor the original “JeepsterMan” and we are grateful for his perseverance in reproducing hard to find Willys and Jeep parts.

Today the JeepsterMan team, Mark and John are now the owners of JeepsterMan. JeepsterMan and Just Jeepsters is a father and son dream from 25 years ago when Mark bought his first 1972 Jeep Commando. We were hooked. Our lives took different paths but we always maintained our love for these very rare and prestigious vehicles.

John is a decorated combat Veteran, UH-60 Blackhawk and King Air Pilot. John retired early as an Army Major due to combat injuries. He served our country in 2008-2009 in Iraq as a Black Hawk pilot and in 2031-2014 in Afghanistan where he flew King Airs. John has a bachelor and master’s degree. John has a son named Everett who is already growing up in the shop.

Mark is a leadership development specialist and has taught leadership to global leaders in several countries and specializes in Leadership, Coaching, and Organization Development. Mark has a bachelor and master’s degree and holds a current PHD/ABD in organization behavior and development.

Jamie is the General Manage of the entire operation. Don’t doubt her mechanical skills because this one puts so called mechanics in their place all the time. Her husband is Robby. While Robby doesn’t work here full time he creates many of our innovative products and was the brains behind our very popular disc brake kit conversion.

The Great Willys Picnic June 14th, 2026

Kempton, PA

Supporter Spotlight: Kaiser Willys

Kaiser Willys Auto Supply, a family owned business providing quality and reasonably priced vintage Willys Jeep Parts, was founded by Ron Meditz in 1995 and handed down from father to son, Mike Meditz, in the early 2000s. In the beginning, Ron’s interest in the hobby began with a 1954 Kaiser Darrin (pictured below), and very quickly expanded into Kaiser Frasier, Willys Jeep, Truck and Station Wagon. For as long as he can remember, owner Mike Meditz can recall many childhood experiences surrounding his father’s interest in the Kaiser / Willys line of automobiles.

Sunday Update

• CATEGORIES: News This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Sunday>>>

Ran out of room, 20GB was floating around and I filled up the storage actually was 115% above the limit, so cleared that all out, who knew you have to keep track of GB and GB of data and it’s not just infinite. Easy fix, but when I tried to upload the photos for posts today there was no room to do that, so here we are! I kind of knew something was up the uploads were a little slower, but that plugin said they would be impacted on new uploads, but it just all came to a stop last night on the media stuff.

Seems all good, will monitor for now and see how it goes.

We will get there one step at a time.. learning as we go. The nice thing is I was able to log right in and get it cleaned up quickly, I can remember when you would crash your computer and it was not even able to delete files.  The host has allowed the overage which is nice, but me not looking did not help matters to keep it in the bounds of the allotment.

Saturday >>>

11:30 EST Update

Got some stuff posted up with the new format, it worked out well, need to get some reps in on this new to me format, but it worked well, may have broken some pictures for past posts, will figure that out as I go I feel I know what that issue is.

Let me know if there are any issues, not required I usually do my own thing, but it may help you out and working at this.

Original Post

Still working on the new post format deal, that whole table deal turned into a rabbit hole, but I got it sorted just takes more time, everything takes longer then expected. 

The table format was such a time saver for me, I had it in a vertical set up, but did not realize that issue with the tables in general that did not fit the windows. Thanks to John for pointing that out, it was the same on any phone it turned out just never realized it.

So after 4 full months of doing it that way, used some AI help to build out a new template, which happened to be a great tool in the tool box, and sorting that all out. It’s really amazing how helpful and easy it is to use for stuff I would never (or it would take a ling time) to be able to build a template like that. You can build an entire post generator of sorts, not there yet and that would not take a ton of time but not today.

There was a period of slowness on the site yesterday AM which I don’t know what was up there, but it cleared up and I wound up disabling the WebP plugin, just in case, but it did not seem related to that, so that is back on. I had an email scheduled to the helpdesk but it cleared up so I cancelled the email for that will see if it comes back and will let them know.

Unfortunately all of this eats into the time I have to do posts, so just bear with us, these are just like our Willys at times they run great for months and months and then the don’t and you go down multiple rabbit holes.

Getting there and not getting there all at the same time.

Here is a snapshot of the file:

When I double click that COPY cell, that CELL turns Green, it then says POSTED and the date next to that row it then is just pasted into the WP post. It’s all formatted, the Info to seller is buried into the format with a hidden column, the “Link to Ad” is also created.

This is what it looks like with a single paste into the Text editor. No more tables, but it still uses the table. There are billion of ways to do this, so will keep marching on.
