Year? Scamp? Gilbert, AZ No Price

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

UPDATE: Still Available.

(09/08/2017) Looks in good shape. The recessed headlights suggest this was more likely a Scamp than a Veep, but both kits looked very similar otherwise (as best as I can tell).

https://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/cto/d/jeep-cj3a-veep-style-5-seater/6362710297.html

“Fun to drive, draws attention from admirers, great for snowbirds to pull behind an RV.
In 2004, at this jeep’s birth, it took a second place in a car show in Sacramento.

This is a conversion of a 1946 Willy’s jeep cj3a (army style) into what was called back in the ’70’s a “Veep”, which meant a steel Jeep body with VW bug running gear (motor and trans).

This Jeep body came out of a shipping crate with army green paint and had never been assembled until i opened it and bolted the hood and floor plate together in 2004. The engine is a dual port stock 1600cc air-cooled motor with a single solex 30 carburetor built in 2004. It has a type 1 transmission with standard 4-spd manual shifting. This Jeep includes the following features:
Four wheel disc brakes
External oil cooler w/ thermostatically controlled cooling fan
Four Fox shocks including external reservoirs in the rear
VW beam front end
Centerline aluminum rims (new tires)
White front bucket seats
A removable rear bench that seats 3 on black diamond stitching
VDO vintage gold rimed gauges
The clear plastic windows in the doors was replaced in 2016
Diamond plate floor under the hood compartment
Custom spare tire mount on front for improved weight distribution
Many customizations..

Many of the upgrades and customizations were installed by a shop in mesa around 2015 and cost me over $8,000.

This jeep has an original 14,000 miles on it from the front to the transmission and engine and from top to bottom. You can see from the youtube video address above that the jeep runs great and sounds awesome. This jeep does not have the old low gearing of a 1946 army jeep with top limits of 45mph. This jeep can do 65-70mph on the freeway easy.

I used it for a daily commuter for a year, then played with it as a pleasure vehicle for the family, now it just sits in the garage and only gets run on the weekends. I just drove it from Arizona to San Francisco for a business trip for a few weeks then back again. It ran perfectly. However, I’m interested in trying something else now.

I am taking offers and will consider all offers that are presented via voicemail or direct phone call. I will not respond to nor consider offers via email or text.

I am under no illusion that I will get back my $15,000 that i have invested in the Jeep and will not be offended by your offer. Please offer what you think it is worth to you and I’ll accept or decline with no hard feelings nor offense taken.

Make sure you watch the youtube video before contacting me since it answers many questions about the Jeep.

Will consider trade for a Suzuki Sidekick or a Geo Tracker or Toyota RAV4 but only a 2dr hard top in fully restored condition that is as pristine as my Jeep and I prefer a 2wd.

1971 Jeepster Commando Wichita, KS $28,000

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

Ted shared this nice looking Commando.

“This Kaiser Jeepster Commando Truck (Half Cab) is pure joy. I can’t tell you how much fun this little truck can be. I drove a 69 Jeepster when I was in high school, and when this 1971 project presented itself, I couldn’t resist. I bought this Jeepster from a guy who had it parked in a airplane hanger around Colorado Springs. Because I was very familiar with the original Jeepster’s I took great pains to find original parts and did my best to make it as pure of a Kaiser Jeepster as possible. I even bought a Half Cab that had been crushed to obtain the orignal black moulding pieces (that are impossible to find!). The white truck bed cover is an original Whitco Jeepster top that I was lucky to find new in the box. This Jeepster has a Dauntless V6 motor with a three speed transmission. The 4 Wheel Drive works very well.

I’ve driven it back and forth from Colorado to Wichita KS several times. I have an excellent mechanic in Estes Park as well as another in Wichita. These guys have loved working on it. I have had everything reviewed, and this car is in as good of shape as one could expect from a 1971 Jeepster. The Half Cab’s really turn an eye. It seems to me that many people have seen the Station Wagon’s and the Convertible’s but have seldom seen the Truck.”

1952 M-38 Ann Arbor, MI $5200 *SCAM*

• CATEGORIES: M-38 • TAGS: , , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Claus confirmed that this same jeep was on eBay for $20k recently. If you see this posted other places on Craigslist, I’d suggest flatting it.

Craig shared this ad. The too-good-to-be-true price on this beautiful M-38 suggests it is likely a scam. The phone number for the ad is a California one, but it was listed in the Ann Arbor, Michigan, Craigslist. That doesn’t automatically mean it’s a scam (as I still have my Cali phone number), but is just another reason to be suspect.

“Also has new 12 volt batteries. Totally rebuilt engine and transmission”

“This is my 1955 willys cj5. It has been my pride and joy for the last 12years, and I am ready to let someone else enjoy this wonderful vehicle.
It is a blast to drive, and great to look at! It was fully restored in 2006. It served me as my Daily driver all through high school and then some years after. It has been kept indoors for the last 10 years. The more kids we have the less it gets driven, and it is depressing to see it set and not get used. I would rather have someone enjoy it than have it set in my garage with the other “toys” I don’t use anymore.
