The personal sized SUV: 1949 Willys Overland Jeepster . FEATURE REPORT.

Comprehensive report on a 1949 Willys Jeepster that is a real survivor.The owner uses it as a daily driver. We do a road test, walk around and discuss some of the systems and features of this unusual car. Perhaps Brooks Stevens design of an early SUV was decades ahead of its time! Americana at its best!
If it had been more popular, it might have been one of the best 4X4s of all time.

My dad’s “toy” was a 50 Jeepster. My entire Cub Scout group could cram in it. He sold it in about 1957.

looks so sexy, rugged and very luxurios at the same time

[@carthropology8318]

It's really iconic Americana from a great time of automobile design...
I assume you're talking about the car and not the owner!

She's a lovely looking car,
Are they 2x4 or 4x4?

[@carthropology8318]

2X2. The later iteration of the jeepster the”Commando” was outfitted as a 4x4.

@@carthropology8318 Thank you

[@kobusdutoitbosman6240]

Is the ‘Jeepster’ four wheel drive as well, by any chance❓

[@carthropology8318]

These first model Jeepsters were not 4 wheel drive. The later model 1967 “Commander”
model did have it.
