No much tread on those ‘mud tires’. It runs.

“1947 Willys CJ2A Jeep
-4cyl Flathead, runs well, needs new key ignition
-Vintage home-done lift, sits on military non-directional mud tires…front tires hold air, back tires start to go flat after about a week or so.

VEEP, VEEPSTERS and the SCAMP

December 28, 2013 • CATEGORIES: Features, VEEP (VW Jeep), Scamp, Others This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: A builder’s manual for the VEEPSTER has now been posted.

I’ve known about the VEEP Jeep Kit, from Hadley Engineering out of Costa Mesa, California, but I recently learned about two additional VW kit jeeps: The Veepster and the SCAMP. However, I’m still not clear what differentiates a VEEP from a SCAMP or a VEEPSTER.

The SCAMP VW KIT was built and sold out of Redding, California, in the early 70s. I found this ad at the TheSamba.com website

scamp-veep-ad-thesamba

Here’s a beautiful 1973 SCAMP (lots of pictures), but I couldn’t say if this is entire stock or not:

1973-scamp5

The VEEPSTER VW kit car was sold by VEEPSTER, LLC, out of Mesa, Arizona, according to Kit Car Guide. Curiously, a Czech Republic site and thesamba.com site show that a VEEPSTER VW Kit was sold by Sun Valley Autotech out of Scottsdale, Arizona. Here’s a builder’s and assembly manual for the VEEPSTER  by the Sun Valley Autotech company.

The following two pics from this site reportedly show a VEEPSTER.

veepster-front Veepsterrear

E-VEEPSTER: Meanwhile, there is a kit car seller out of Sedona that claimed in 2011 or 2012 to make an E-VEEPSTER. The company appears to have gone out of business. The body of the E-VEEPSTER looks more like a South African Gobex or Badger (especially the windshield) than a VEEP, SCAMP or VEEPSTER.

Here’s an ad from July 10, 2012 that was part of a sustainable business article from the Portland Business Journal:

eVeepster_ad_web

You can see a very quick clip of a Veepster on Youtube:

According to Youtube, Venus Motors, Electric Car Options and Go Electric came together to build the e-Veepster. A CJ3A Jeep fiberglass replica with a chassis designed with aftermarket VW suspension and the Venus EV Drive System. Kits are available, assembly is available, who says EV’s aren’t available. Many styles to choose from but in Sedona, AZ this is Red Rock 1

DUKW Discovered in Italy’s Lake Garda

Paul discovered this article from 2012 about the discovery of a DUKW near Mussolini’s lakeside home on Lake Garda, Italy. The article calls the vehicle an amphibious jeep, but it better resembles a DUKW.

Short Excerpt from article:
A 67-year-search for the final resting place of 24 U.S. Servicemen lost in a tragic accident storming Italian dictator Benito Mussolini’s refuge during the last days of the Second World War may have finally been discovered.

New video footage released yesterday by the Voluntary Association of Lake Garda shows what appears to be the wreck of an amphibious U.S truck which sunk 600-feet to the bottom of the picturesque lake on April 30th 1945 during the operation.

Jeep’s New ‘Launch’ Button

John forwarded this article that highlights a new Jeep button titled ‘LAUNCH’

http://autos.yahoo.com/news/what-does-this-insanely-awesome-button-do–204659286.html

Here’s part of the article:
The 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 is home to perhaps one of the most appropriate buttons we’ve encountered in the What Does This Button Do? series. Mysterious buttons are rarely spelled out as clearly as the Jeep SRT8’s, or as fun to use.

By spelled out, we mean the whole word, “Launch,” appears on the button to designate the 470-horsepower, all-wheel-drive Jeep SRT8’s Launch Mode. There are no acronyms or guessing with this button. What the button does is also made clearer by the awesome depiction of a drag strip’s starting-line lights, aka a “Christmas tree.”

Some rust along front edge where front panel meets the angle iron on front of frame. Some cracks in bed. Has a tailgate modification – but was done with clean cuts straight up and down and real panel still in place for restoration. The best possible tailgate scenario for restoration.

Has all original reflectors, two combat wheels, original lunette set-up, one safety chain, even has one black out light still in place!”
