This 1949 Willys Overland Jeepster is in excellent used condition. The car has never been comprehensively restored because it has never needed such drastic attention. The car has been re-painted at least once. Paint is in good, presentable condition. There is no indication of any prior body repair or rust repair anywhere on this vehicle. The paint finish is red with some black fades highlighting the trim. All chrome is original and is very presentable as-is. The seat upholstery is in good, presentab l eand useable condition. The carpeting is new, original-style loop carpeting in proper color for the vehicle. The recently replaced the side curtains have never seen weather. This vehicle would qualify as an AACA HPOF (Historic Preservation of Original Features) car. As a collector who values original vehicles above restored vehicles, I believe that this Jeepster shoudl be enjoyed and cared for as-is and should never receive a comprehensive restoration. That said, if someone wanted to restore and have the very best Jeepster on earth, this is the right foundation for such an endeavor. Noteable atrributes of this vehicle include:Very Rare, Original hub-caps in very presentable conditionNew reproduction set of hub caps are included (to be used when concerned about originals being stolen)Car is equipped with factory Overdrive - fully functionalCar starts easily and runs smoothly with good oil pressure, no smoking, or other bad habits.Steering and suspension are all in good condition and the car travels well at highway speedsTires are in good conditionAll chrome is original and serves as a testiment to the fact that this Jeepster has been well cared for its entire life.I would have no hesitations about getting in this car and driving it accross the country I am offering this Jeepster as we are in the process of refining our private collection. Like me, the descriminating collector will appreciate the value of a very original vehicle such as this. I am not a Dealer. Please call me at 630-417-2876 or write me with any questions or to schedule an inspection of the car. We are located very close to O'hare airport. I am happy to assist with coordination of vehicle transport including export as needed.
