Buz spotted this unusual toy. The auction takes place Saturday and Sunday. I’m not sure which day the jeep will be up for auction.
Here’s a great video of a run at the 2012 Summer Convention held this year in Camas Valley, Oregon. There are a few more videos posted as well.
I purchased this small article about a Jeep Jamboree in 1957. The event was held on South Padre Island in the Gulf of Mexico off Texas. This two page spread has pictures and a bit of info on the action. As soon as I get my scanner working again, I’ll larger versions of this.
UPDATE: Was on eBay. **SOLD**
This is an unusual Jeepster. I wish the pics were larger.

” I am moving and need to down size my toys–I did a total frame off rebuild of this Jeep in 2004- Brakes,wheel bearings,all seals front and rear,new brake lines,new wheel bearings..everything was put back just like new-It has a 1985 Chevy 4.3 V6 with a 4 barrel carb- It has LOTS of power- The engine does smoke a little when you first start it up,but after it warms up its okay- Does not use any oil- Slips out of second gear on deacceleration(which is a common problem) I did not catch it when I rebuilt it,because it was not running when I got it– Paint is a little faded – No rust- good brakes- gauges all work- seats are good-still retains all of the Military hardware- Good top- Lots of fun to drive- 5 brand new Military NDT 7.00X16 Tires- Has a heater-What else can I say this is a one time deal you want find another one like it- It was titled as a 1947 Willys when I bought,but is is a 1942 Ford GPW- I have a clear Texas title- Give me a call @ 325-665-3495 for more info.”

Check out the 100 mile-per-hour speedometer. Is that aftermarket or from a different vehicle?
