This Jeepster looks better than new!

“This 1949 Jeepster just recieved a frame off restoration to original specs. All parts have either been rebuilt, replaced, refurbished or new. The L-134 engine and overdrive have been rebuilt.There is no rust anywhere, as all damaged panels were replaced. The car is technically correct except for the steering wheel (is a 1950 model). The top cover and wood frames are all new. The tires are new Cokers and have approximately 50 miles on them. All the glass and rubber moldings are new. It has the correct Dupont Fiesta yellow color, interior is vinyl. The original mileage before the restoration is unknown. This is not a 100 point car but close. The air cleaner is an upgraded #675 model.There are vey minor issues with the fuel gage (sticking occasionally) and the horn (sticking occasionally). The car starts very easily and drives like a  Jeepster should. Bidders are welcome to have a private appraiser inspect the vehicle before the auction ends. Sale includes all reciepts, photos, manuals, extra parts.”

I think some better photos would be very helpful.  Unclear if it runs.

This might be a great, relatively easy restoration project.  It looks in very good shape for the price.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000

(03/23/2010) This looks like a great restoration project for someone not looking to do an entire project at once.  Note the owner has a notebook with the original documentation about this.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500.

Not a bad price.  Carbs are cheap and easy to replace!  That said, how exactly does one ‘crack’ a carb??? A block yes, but a carb?  Maybe it’s the intake manifold?

“Classic Willy’s Jeepster – good condition- was running great until we cracked carburetor – Must sell – $ 6,500.00 OBO Email if interested to see.”
