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).

“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.“

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.

Looks in good shape. Has custom steps along the side.

“I have a VW buggie with a flat fender willies jeeps body. It is in great condition has a new radio with 2 6×9 speakers with boxes installed and all new wiring under the dash! Runs great just don’t have the time to enjoy it anymore. I have a bikini top on it and tags paid up until sept 2018. Has front tow bar so it’s ready to drive or haul down the road to the coast, desert or Home! Asking $3500 because that’s what I put into it including purchase”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was No Price.

The seller believes this has a 1946 body, but looks more like a replica body. This may actually be a SCAMP rather than a VEEP.

“We have a great Car for you!! Take a look!! It’s a 1971 VW VEEP! Jeep style kit car, built back in the 80’s. It’s in great shape, runs very well, has a New 1600cc duel port motor, with lots of chrome, custom Muffler’s, Alt. and New Carburetor. Has a flip-up front hood where the gas tank, and battery sits, very easy to work on , if need be,

It’s a blast to drive, great for the summer/Springtime, and priced right!! Just $5995.oo or trade?

Please call us to come see and drive, great for a Motor-home owner to tow behind and use when parked, much lighter than a true Jeep, but just as fun!!”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

Robin spotted this one. Seller shows photos with two different types of rims. I’m not sure if both are included. The Scamp kit varies slightly from the VEEP kit.

“I am listing this for a friend that is techno challenged and I will try to get answers to all questions. This is basically a VW with a Jeep or some people call a Veep or Jeepster body kit. It represents a 49-53 Jeep and is an all metal body. It has a later GEX big valve VW1835cc dual port engine. It is very powerful and fun to drive. It has two tops (the full enclosure is new, see pictures) and two sets of wheels, plus a tow bar. Look at the pictures closely as these vehicles are called by several names and can be confusing. I have many pictures and if you send me your REGULAR email address I will send them to you.  This vehicle runs and drives perfect, is currently licensed and state inspected. There is no warrantee written or implied for this vehicle.”
