1951 Willys Jeepster
Ken Abbott Vehicle story
This is a fully restored Willys Overland Jeepster. The engine was recently rebuilt with upgrades to the electrical system for a smooth and dependable ride. The Jeepster is a Phaeton convertible designed as a Post War touring version of the Jeep. Production ran from 1948 through 1950. The car was originally purchased in Kentucky in 1951 and I am the third owner.
Options are: I will drive or deliver the Jeepster from Santa Monica to your event. I will dress and prepare a soundtrack to complement your theme. The transmission is manual three speed with column shift and overdrive. If you choose to drive, you can pick it up or I can deliver.
It is a fun car to ride with room for myself as driver and up to five additional
passengers.
