UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Robin spotted this one. Seller shows photos with two different types of rims. I’m not sure if both are included. The Scamp kit varies slightly from the VEEP kit.
“I am listing this for a friend that is techno challenged and I will try to get answers to all questions. This is basically a VW with a Jeep or some people call a Veep or Jeepster body kit. It represents a 49-53 Jeep and is an all metal body. It has a later GEX big valve VW1835cc dual port engine. It is very powerful and fun to drive. It has two tops (the full enclosure is new, see pictures) and two sets of wheels, plus a tow bar. Look at the pictures closely as these vehicles are called by several names and can be confusing. I have many pictures and if you send me your REGULAR email address I will send them to you. This vehicle runs and drives perfect, is currently licensed and state inspected. There is no warrantee written or implied for this vehicle.”
Interesting that it has a metal body. I thought all “Veeps” were fiberglass. It looks like the the M-38 style combination tub.
Mark,
The VEEPS were all steel bodies. The brochure (http://www.ewillys.com/2014/01/09/veep-brochure-and-assembly-instructions/) mentioned this fact. Of course, it also mentioned the bodies were built to military specs, which wasn’t exactly true.
The Scamps were old enough that they probably also used metal bodies, but I don’t have a brochure to confirm this.
The VEEPSTERs, the latest incarnation of the VW jeep, used a fiberglass body. http://www.ewillys.com/2013/12/28/veep-veepsters-and-the-scamp/
