Vehicle Description


This 1949 Willys Overland Jeepster, yellow with a black upper section over black vinyl. A refurbishment has been carried out that included disassembly and refinishes of the frame and body, a refresh or replacement of chrome and stainless steel components, reupholstered seats and door panels, and installation of a new soft top, wiring, and electrical components along with mechanical work. Power is from an overhauled 134ci "Go Devil" inline-four paired with a three-speed manual gearbox with overdrive.  he Jeepster was designed by Brooks Stevens as a style-forward bridge between utilitarian Civilian Jeeps and conventional cars. The body on this example was removed from the frame and refinished in yellow with a black upper section. Equipment includes chrome bumpers, steps to access the rear compartment, a split windshield, and a replacement black vinyl top that can be seen both raised and lowered  A two-spoke steering wheel with a chrome horn ring fronts a steel dash that is equipped with chrome trim. Centrally-mounted instrumentation consists of an 80-mph speedometer and gauges for fuel level, oil pressure, amperage, and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 45k miles. Total mileage is unknown.  The 134ci "Go Devil" inline-four was overhauled as part of the refurbishment and features a single downdraft carburetor fed by a stock air cleaner assembly. New wiring and electrical components have been installed along with stainless steel fuel lines. The engine delivers power to the rear wheels through a column-shifted three-speed manual gearbox,. he frame was repainted in black prior to reassembly, and the components attached are said to have been powder coated in the same color.
