Vehicle Description
A 1948 Willys Jeepster is already quite distinctive. So when
attractive vintage looks meet a solid V8 upgrade - and it's all
offered at an affordable price - then you already know this is a
sweet deal.
You're looking at a lot of firsts. After all, the Jeepster is the
original SUV/crossover. While all Jeepsters are a rear sight, you
get the distinction of a 1948 model - it's first year ever. So the
history has appeal even before you check out the details. The
chrome center waterfall grille with Willys-Overland emblem,
intricate trim encircling the body, and proper Willys two-piece
wheel trim all give this classic car distinction. Plus, those
whitewalls have a great '40s style while also coordinating with the
crisp folding roof and side curtain package. It's all set apart
even further with a deep shade of burgundy that gives off a good
gloss in the sunlight.
Inside you get more vintage style with the classic two rows of
bench seats and the vintage Willys dash. But you can also instantly
tell this one has some cool upgrades. For example, you'll love
opening doors at car shows just to show off the custom white panels
with the Willys-Overland logo stitched in a color-coordinating
maroon. The horn makes the classic "Aoogah!" sound to attract even
more attention. But the best pieces are reserved just for the
driver. The Hurst shifter and VDO tachometer are an ideal pair, and
the Chevy NK4 steering wheel is a hint at the upgrade under the
hood.
There's no replacement for displacement, so you'll love to lift the
hood and see a Chevy small-block V8. This 283 cubic-inch unit is
more than double the size of the original motor offered in the
Jeepster. And this upgrade proudly shows off with the bold block
and all the polished components. The motor exhales with a sweet
tune as shorty headers feed a glasspack dual exhaust. The
three-speed manual transmission means you have full control over
this V8 upgrade and its soundtrack. Because you'll want to cruise
this classic all summer long, it even comes with power
steering.
Distinction, upgrades, and affordability - this Jeepster has it
all. So it's time to stand out for all the right reasons. Call
