Nice Jeepster! Again, so hard to find because most were driven to death, resurrected, and driven to death again. A fraternity brother's dad had one on his farm; if I remember correctly, it had one fender and lawn chairs as seats. It was used to go check on the cattle. Thanks again, Captain 'Stache!
I'm glad he kept it with the pale yellow the design was to show Jeep(Willy's O)could be a company not just for building utility. But Jeep for more relaxed experience in a Jeep moniker.
Newer Jeeps have seven slots in the grill. My dad’s had several early Jeeps from the fifties, from factory style restoration to sitting on a modern frame with a 350/350 and still 4X4.
The 6 cylinder was called.. The Lightning 6 with only 1,200 made and the 4 cylinder was called the go Devil or the L Head. The other Flat Head 6 was called the Hurricane 6 Mostly in Trucks and Wagons..
I love that Dennis is attracted to the unusual. I think he'd like my 580Z Spyder: ruclips.net/video/euF-b4Ln6-s/видео.html Thanks for all the great content. Totally cool!
The 1949 Willys - Overland Jeepster : It's from the Year of My Birth. So I want to like It. But frankly, It's about as endearing as a Ferrari "Bread Van" variant of the "GTO". Such things are subjective. But I pass. I would have preferred to spent some time with the red 'Sunbeam Tiger', that was parked, next to the Jeepster. It has a Better Story. The Only reason It wasn't a bigger success; was that Chrysler bought Sunbeam (U.K.) Of course, the 'Tiger' was born when; Ken Miles, & the Shelby Team had "shoe-horned" a Ford 260 V-8 into a Sunbeam 'Alpine'. But, None of the Chrysler V-8s could fit the Tiger ! So Tigers were sold on the floor of Plymouth dealerships; although they had Ford "260"s & later "289"s ! ! ! But when Sunbeam's Inventory of Ford V-8s ran out, the Tiger was History. Besides, It's also part of TV Comedy History. As It was the final car, in Maxwell Smart's Automotive Evolution. (The show, "Get Smart" : 1st - the VW 'Karmann-Ghia', 2nd - a Sunbeam "Alpine', & 3rd - the Sunbeam 'Tiger' )
I also learned to drive in a Jeepster. Drove over the garbage can at the end of the driveway on my first attempt. (I was 11).
Thank you.

Saturday morning,lifting weights and watching,nothing better
Those wheels are mighty fine!
One of the smartest designs ever for a car. Sure that the heaters worked well!
Absolutely beautiful ! I definitely want one !😃
Awesome JEEPSTER! Remember when Herman Munster took his exam in the Hearse Rod?
I'm glad he kept it with the pale yellow the design was to show Jeep(Willy's O)could be a company not just for building utility. But Jeep for more relaxed experience in a Jeep moniker.
One of the coolest, most unique cars built. Very cool and in excellent condition.
I loved to own a jeepester
Excellent

I have the same car but I drive mine more in Winter because of the heat here in California.
@Phil D’Asaro hmmm have to think about that
My cousin has one. Beautiful car. Greetings from Evansville, IN.
That was filmed in Charleston West Virginia I live in Huntington West Virginia that's something
That is something because I live in Wayne West Virginia. It looks like we missed out on a good chance to meet him.
Love Jeepsters!
Great job Dennis and crew 👍
the 1949 Willys Overland Jeepster is a classic,but my fave modern AMC Jeep is the 1970-1973 Jeep Commando which looks like a modern Willys Jeep
63 horsepower, my '59 Metropolitan only has 53hp (1500cc, 4cyl). Greetings from SoCal.
Rebuilding my 49 Jeepster at the moment and we also have a 47 Willys Wagon and a 58 Willys Pickup (Both are drivers)
excellent 👌👌

Had one in the late 1950s. Think it was a 1951. Threw a rod and died a happy death.
The jeep is nice but your mustache is better
Muito bom

_WILLiss_
Not _Willy's_
Willys is correctly pronounced “WIL-liss”.
Like Will-This Gasser explode down the track!
