Vehicle Detail
I purchased this super rare jeepster convertible in Maui a couple months ago.. I own one in slc Utah and am familiar with what I have and what I am offering for sale. I have been touring around the island with it for the last few weeks.. It has been a lot of fun. Extremely low production production numbers (less 3,000 built) make this one of the most collectible, nostalgic jeep models in existence.. This one is is an original California vehicle that was repainted once with its original desirable color combinations, red and white. It was garaged and pampered by its previous owner on the island. It does have a small amount of rust, lower rockers and a small spot here and there. Not a rusty island car.. Still looks like a California car. Body/Paint:Nice older restoration.. I would estimate the paint is at least 10 years old, but was done well.. Not a cheap $599 special.. Looks flat and smooth looking down the sides. Paint color looks correct. Paint is nice "driver" quality.. Not fresh show ready. Has several imperfections and areas with light wear. Underside looks solid. I wouldn't say it's completely "rust free".. But it is solid and looks great. I can take any detail picture you may want from my iPhone. Interior:Complete, original interior.. Looks like the seat upholstery has been redone in original style and pattern.. Carpet and door panels are good, minor attention to the panels needed. Top was likely replaced at time of paint and is in good working condition.. Not new, but has some life left. Rare Fiberglas rear panels are present and intact. Mechanical:Jeepster is in great running and driving condition.. Motor makes good power and does not smoke. Transmission shifts as it should. Suspension feels great, especially for a 45 year old jeep! Really drives well for what it is. It does need some light tlc, as to be expected for a vehicle of this age, but nothing known that is urgent. All electrical works, but temp and horn are intermittent. Windows roll up and down (rear 1/4 windows too). Summary:A rare opportunity to own a true #8701 Jeepster convertible in the desirable red/white color combo. Vehicle is currently registered in Maui and in this auction I agree to pay shipping to Oakland or long beach ca.. Seattle port may be a possibility too.. BUYER TO ARRANGE AND PAY ALL SHIPPING FROM PORT. VEHICLE MUST BE PAID IN FULL VIA WIRE/BANK TRANSFER, BEFORE VEHICLE IS DELIVERED TO THE SHIP YARD. APPROX TIME TO FOR VEHICLE TO TRAVEL ACROSS THE PACIFIC IS 10-14 DAYS. I have kept my description limited due to the fact I'm listing this from my phone. I encourage any serious interested buyer to call me at 801-897-1822 for more info. Hawaii time is 4 hrs behind pacific time zone. Thank you.
