Vehicle Description
Built for only two years, the Jeepster was a design that was
produced by Willys-Overland, (pronounced WILL-is) in hopes of
filling a gap in the companys product line. A sort of cross breed
between their utility and the passenger car market. Nearly 20,000
units were sold in those two years however unfortunately the model
was discontinued. This particular model has been nicely restored
with really good paint and interior. This jeepster was sold new in
Toledo, Ohio and is the model 4-73. It also appears to have the
original owners manual which has the VIN# written in at time of
delivery. Furthermore it appears that the motor was overhauled at
55,400 miles with a reground cam shaft, main bearings, pistons and
rings in July 1966. A electric fuel pump was added for ease of
starting but in all reality, we have started it using it and not
with no problems whatsoever. I have taken it around the block and
it idles, shifts, brakes nicely with no major rattles or shakes.
Lights work well, the top is in very good condition and is just
super fun. There is no way you could restore one of these to this
caliber for what we are asking. You will not be disappointed
considering they are selling restoration projects that are not
complete for nearly $10,000. There are not a ton of these around so
don't miss your chance.
