1967 Jeepster Deluxe Convertible 4x4 With Ultra Rare Power Retractable Top on 2040-cars
San Antonio, Texas, United States
|
1967 JEEPSTER CONVERTIBLE Here’s your chance to own a rare deluxe Jeepster convertible with the ultra rare “power” retractable top. Willys during the late 40’s introduced the Jeepster, but they were two wheel drive. In 1967, the Kaiser Corporation reintroduced the Jeepster as a four-wheel drive. This example has the fabulous 225 V-6 engine with console shift automatic transmission, bucket seats, rear continental kit style bumper, power brakes, and again the rare power top. This is a life long TEXAS Jeep with very nice original sheet metal, original solid floors, solid rocker panels, body supports etc. There is some minor bubbles under the paint on the passenger side rocker panel. The Jeep was originally red with a White Top. It was painted blue many years ago which looks pretty nice. It’s a nice looking driver as is, but no perfect show truck. The paint shows wear and has small chips and scratches on it. The Jeep has a high dollar Beachwood Canvas top which is in very nice shape. The top frame is very nice. The power top system brings the top up very nicely, going down it needs help. It likely just needs fluid. The seats are pretty nice, but show wear. There are seat belts too. All the lights work, wipers, horn, turn signals, fuel gauge etc. There is a FM/AM CD player with AMP under the drivers seat which sounds good. The tires have good tread but have age. The motor is strong and sounds good and has good power. It should be turned up. It idles a bit rough. The transmission shifts smooth but jumps when placed in drive or reverse from park. I was told the vacuum module on the outside of the transmission needs replacing. The Jeep comes with a fine extra set of rare hubcaps with trim rings. The fog lights were removed and are not included. If you have questions, I have answers, please call Houston Wills at 210-548-1310 between 9am-7pm CST time. The Jeep is located in San Antonio Texas.

2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 4X4
Wed, 13 Feb 2013Ice skates are spectacular on frozen water, yet they are dreadful everyday footwear. I consider the Jeep Wrangler equally as specialized.
I recently spent a week with a 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 4X4. Introduced for the 2007 model year, the Wrangler Unlimited is a standard JK two-door with 20.6 inches added to its wheelbase and two additional doors bolted to its passenger compartment. While Jeep offers the Unlimited in seven different trim levels, the desirable Rubicon is the most capable when the pavement ends, as it boasts a slew of hardcore off-road tools including front and rear electronic locking differentials and a front sway bar that can be disengaged at the touch of a button for improved articulation. My I-Look-Like-A-Traffic-Cone test model started with a base price of $34,095 (plus $995 destination). Options including a five-speed automatic transmission, Uconnect, tow package and a premium soft top, drove the bottom line up to $38,630.
Driving Notes
Jeepster name may be used for Fiat-based baby Jeep
Tue, 17 Dec 2013In 1948, Willys-Overland, the forbearers of Jeep, built a vehicle called the Jeepster. It was a funky little thing, designed as a mix of the more rugged Jeeps that came before with what was then a modern car, which arguably makes it the world's first crossover. The name was later revived from 1966 to 1972, which means for Jeep enthusiasts, it has some history.
Now, the modern Jeep brand may revive the Jeepster name for a new product, likely based on Fiat bones, that will slot in at the bottom of the brand's range underneath the soon-to-depart Compass and Patriot. The report comes from Australia's Drive, which cites a dealer source that has seen the vehicle.
That same dealer confirmed there is a link between the Jeepster and the rumored Fiat 500X, and that the former will be available in both front and all-wheel-drive variants. The source also claims both gas and diesel engines will be available, although as this is an Aussie site, we shouldn't take that to mean we'll get a diesel Jeepster in the US.
Radical 2016 Jeep Wrangler suggested by job listings?
Fri, 31 May 2013With most inside the industry expecting the next-generation Jeep Wrangler to arrive for the 2016 model year, it makes sense that the automaker would be looking for some choice candidates to to fill program openings as the off-roader goes through its development. A recent ad on Chryslercareers.com suggests to some that the lightweight Wrangler Stitch Concept, revealed just two months ago and shown above, provides some clues about the off-road icon's next iteration.
According to Automotive News, the job descriptions - which don't name the model specifically - hint that the next-generation Wrangler will benefit from a serious diet. The ads appear to seek those familiar with advanced high-strength steels, hinting that lightweight aluminum body panels may appear on the 4x4. In addition, there are suggestions that Jeep may fit the Wrangler replacement with air suspension, as seen on the Ram and Grand Cherokee, to retain ample off-road clearance yet lower that chassis to improve aerodynamics at highway speeds. The job postings reportedly also lend credence to the idea of a diesel Wrangler.
It seems every bit of the next-generation Wrangler is up for review, as it will be the first time this iconic model is redesigned under Fiat ownership. Questions remain whether or not the Jeep will retain its clip-down hood, easy-to-remove door pins and folding front windshield - loyalists expect them, but fuel economy and safety standards may crimp their cases for survival.
