1948 Willys Jeepster Phaeton 148.5 cubic inch L-Head four-cylinder engine rated at 70 horsepower, three-speed manual transmission, four-wheel drum brakes; wheelbase: 75Ô-After World War II, Willys-Overland realized that soon there would be a large market for a civilian version of the Jeep with returned servicemen. After the war, the company decided to resume civilian production. Many returning servicemen were eager to purchase one as they knew first-hand the vehicleÒs capabilities. Designed by Brooks Stevens and introduced in 1948 as the 2T and 4T models, the Willys Jeepster shared a chassis with the Jeep station wagon and was perfect for the returning troops. This red and black example has much to offer as a rugged early sport-utility vehicle. It recently received new canvas side curtains and features a black vinyl interior, under-dash heater, and wide white wall tires with matched rear-mounted spare. One can assume that this off-road-capable unit has effectively transversed many miles and is ready for a life with a new enthusiast at the helm. This Jeepster can serve you just as it has served
