Hemmings Find of the Day – 1950 Willys Jeepster

Published by Mike on April 23, 2012

It could just be coincidence, but as of late we’ve seen far too many modified Jeepsters. In theory, everybody’s free to do as they please with their car – it’s a free country, after all – but we’ve never seen any reason to mess with Brooks Stevens’s quirky little genre-buster. That’s why this 1950 Willys Jeepster for sale on Hemmings.com caught our eye – it may have been restored a few years back, but it remains true to what an early Jeepster should be. From the seller’s description:

F-161 engine, new 6V wiring, new Stayfast top/side curtains, rebuilt generator, new fuel pump, brakes, front wheel bearings, king pins, ball joints, shocks, body mount pads, Coker P-195/75R15 American Classic whitewall tires on Harvard Red wheels
