“This is an exceptionally well preserved 1950 Jeepster. Original everything, but runs well and starts easily. If you are looking for a classic you can have fun with now, or if you want to restore it to a “like new” condition, this is the Jeepster for you. Comes with the original radio and heater. Floor matts appear to be original.

I can’t tell if the paint is original, but it does appear that the original color was red (Firewall is red) . The cowl is black, and looks great, but does not seem to be original. Top and side curtains are usable, but need to be replaces. The body is very solid. I can’t find evidence of repair, bond-o, rust issues, etc.

I don’t know a lot about the car’s history. It most recently had a Kansas title, and I was told it spent many years in use as a parade car.

1950 Jeepster Framingham, MA $14,900

• CATEGORIES: Jeepster • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Looks in good shape.

“This antique Jeepster was stored in a barn for 38 years. Since I acquired it last year it has been recommissioned mechanically and cosmetically. It is now titled and is fun to drive around town. It has a push button starter on the floor and is a 3 on the column standard shift with a cable operated Overdrive. This convertible with side curtains comfortably rolls along at 40 to 50 mph and seats up to 6.

It has a new fuel tank and sender, reman fuel pump and carb, new wide white wall tires, brakes, exhaust, shocks and a complete new wiring harness. The black interior, top and carpeting are in reasonably good used condition. The paint is patch work of touch ups but the result is a comfortable usable finish like your favorite set of jeans. If you are serious about buying this Jeepster I will take you out for a drive.”

1970 Jeepster Commando Walla Walla, WA $2500

• CATEGORIES: Jeepster This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

There may be some value here, but the seller is clear it’s a project.

“1970 Jeepster Commando. 231 Odd Fire V6, turbo 400, 3.31 axle ratio. The engine has a GM HEI conversion. Has a saginaw power steering conversion. Dual exhaust. Originally orange, was repainted in/out yellow some time ago. Complete Jeep, has roof rack and rear wind deflector. Missing rear seat. Does have some rust but not bad given the year and for being outside. The roof does unbolt so you can go topless.

Someone in the past replaced the 225 v6 with a newer 231 v6. I do not know the mileage of the jeep.

This is an old jeep, it will need attention and maintenance. You should expect this to be a complete project, expect to go through all systems. It does start, I just replaced the intake gasket, rebuilt the carb and changed the oil. Transmission shifts tight, cooling system works great, replaced thermostat and brakes work but I would still recommend towing it home to check it over.

Clean Oregon title/Bill of sale.

$2500 or reasonable offer, this is a lot nicer than the other commandos listed on CL in this price range. I am accepting offers as long as they are reasonable.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4750.

Seller has a variety of jeeps, as seen in the backgrounds of the photos.

“I am selling my 51 Willys Jeepster convertible. This car is in pretty good condition for 66 years old! I have started to restore it, however I am unable to finish it. Car runs and drives. Currently licensed( antique)and insured. Body is good, what little rust there was has been cut out and repaired with steel patch panels. Body is straight enough to be painted black!
Frame and undercarriage is good and solid.
New stuff includes: top(side curtains are included although not new),exhaust, tires, hubcaps, shocks, upholstery.
To be a perfect showpiece, car needs: paint, carpet, bumpers re-chromed and some other minor stuff.
Engine runs ok, I planned to rebuild it someday. Starts and runs good . Three speed transmission with overdrive, works good. Will need a clutch someday. I planned to replace the clutch when I rebuilt the motor.
Car comes with a spare 161, 6 cylinder motor, spare frame and some other misc. parts
This car is pretty solid, you could get in it and drive as-is or spend a few bucks and have a 12 to 15 thousand dollar classic.”

1968 Commando Orangevale, CA **Status Unknown**

• CATEGORIES: Jeepster • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $6500.

This looks like a good price.

“It’s pretty much all original, 225 Buick V-6, 3 speed manual trans, 4×4. It just had a tune-up with a new HEI ignition and new 2 barrel auto choke Holly carburetor.
I’ve only owned it for a few months, I originally bought it to build a Crawler but soon realized it would be a shame to cut up a clean survivor like this.
It was repainted by the previous owner, it’s not perfect but there is zero rust and it has lots of character.
It also comes with a metal top. $6500 OBO.”

Is there something from a ’54 here? Looks more like a Jeepster Commando.

“1954 Jeep Willy’s Rat Rod. 430 CI Buick motor with a turbo 400 automatic transmission. Supposedly LOW miles on motor and trans (60k) Plugs wires, and recent tuneup has been done recently. New locar shifter. The original Jeep frame has been notched and channeled in order to lower. Square tubing and a platform done in the rear to still be able to haul anything if needed. The front has a complete disc brake setup from speedway attached on a 50s pickup axle. The top has been chopped 8″. 20 Gallon tank fastened to the underside so the original filler neck is still used. Doors and tailgate opens and shuts, metal work has been done inside.

Glenn shared this rare half-cabbed Jeepster Commando.

“This Willys Jeepster is the 4X4 short bed clad in red and white. It has a Meyers 6′ plow – we bought it for plowing smaller areas. Seats presentable with brown leatherette. Body has some rust out – front and rear quarters and other areas. Previous owner was a mechanic who replaced original engine with a GM V6 and claimed engine was rebuilt. Jeep runs and drives. Auto transmission works and Meyers plow works good. A desirable little truck that would need panel repairs or drive as is.”

Looks in great shape. The engine uses a modern filter.

“Nicely restored 1950 Willys Jeepster. 6 cxl. engine. Recently gone over by local mechanic and given a clean bill of health.

This car was restored in 1998. I have many picture of the restoration, Engine removed and rebuilt. Body professionally repainted. 12v. system. New carburetor. The restoration even included a CD player an AC. (The AC is under dash, did not mess up the dash, and can be easily removed)

This car sold a few years ago for $20K. (I have documentation). I purchased it for less last year. I have had fun with the car, but some priorities have changed, so now want to find it a new home.

This Jeepster runs very well and feels good at higher speed . Tires are in good shape Paint in excellent shape. Color is a deep gray and appears to have been done quite professionally. Body is in excellent condition. Top and side curtains just OK. ”

1948 Jeepster Inland Empire, CA $4800

Body has been media blasted and primed.

“1948 Willys Jeepster. Rust free and very straight body which has been plastic media blasted and primed at the cost of $2700. All the interior has been done in a modern pattern/materials. The plan was to make it a driver with a 225 Buick V6 and turbo 350 which have both been completely rebuilt and included as well. The frame has not been modified yet so if you wanted to go back to the original drive train you could very easily. The original engine and trans are gone and not included. Some of the plating and polishing of the stainless has been done as well. Lots of extra parts included. A lot of time and money were spent on the project unfortunately there wasn’t enough time left to finish it. It’s a great start for someone wanting a project. Due to the location in the garage pictures are not the best.”
