For Sale: 1951 Willys Jeepster in Cadillac, Michigan

1951 Willys Jeepster was an ingenious design, which combined a four-passenger phaeton with a soft top that evoked the appearance of the wartime Jeep. The model was introduced in May 1948. The VJ2 Willys Jeepster offered few options, and the first ones had a 134-CID four-cylinder "Go-Devil" L-head engine. The transmission was a three-spaced manual with optional overdrive. In 1950, the engine was replaced by the "Hurricane" F-head engine. Willys introduced an up-rated Jeepster in January 1949, and a 148-CID, 72-hp six-cylinder, the side-valve engine became optional in July 1949. For 1950, the Jeepster received a facelift to become the Second Series VJ3 model. The grille became more V-shaped, with five horizontal bars. The Jeepster has an undeniable charm, and has nearly universal acceptance among car enthusiasts, equally welcome in the company of hot rods as it is at Pebble Beach. They make cheerful summer cruises and are simple to maintain with great parts availability, which makes them highly desirable.
