The Willys-Overland Jeepster was a model created by Willys-Overland Motors between 1948 and 1950, aimed at bringing a more comfortable off-roader to the civilian market. Willys were already famous for their tough Jeeps which were doing stellar service in the Military. The Jeepster entered the market as a unique and distinctive-looking automobile with its two-door convertible bodywork. Interestingly, the Jeepster is not four-wheel-drive, but only the rear wheels are driven, thus it can be considered a sort of predecessor to the modern SUV! This 1949 Willys-Overland Jeepster was found nine years ago by its specialist seller and has undergone a full nut-and-bolt restoration. In fact, it is the 120th Jeepster that the specialist has restored! It comes from Florida and has a mere 15 testing miles under its wheels after the restoration. The seller states that the wait time for such a restoration on a Jeepster is currently a year and a half, so why wait that long when this example is available.
Willys is a name that’s best remembered by the Willys Jeep of World War II, a vehicle that spawned several official and unofficial derivatives, and icons of which live on in the current Jeep brand of Stellantis. However, the Willys-Overland company is much older, dating all the way back to 1908 when John Willys founded the company. In fact, John Willys didn’t create the company, but bought the younger (by just five years) Overland Automobile. Between 1914 and 1933, Willys produced the Willys-Knight range of two and four door cars. What we’ve got here is a 1925 Willys-Knight Roadster that’s more of a restomod, as it packs a much newer drivetrain than what would have originally propelled this Twenties automobile along the roads of the time. The mileage on the car is reported to be just 7,500 miles, and if you want a slice of Twenties American automobilia with a twist in the tale, take a chance on this car.
It is often said that life was better in the ʼ80s. Music, clothes, and of course, cars. This 1989 Mercedes 560SL is a car that could take you through time. Kept in pristine condition, this car is ready to stretch its legs having covered a reported 53,208 miles in its 36-year life. With the name having been around for 70 years, it's safe to assume that Mercedes knows what they’re doing.
The term icon is reserved for the best of the best. Looking back through history, there are a few automotive icons that have helped shape the current automotive landscape and continue to ensure smiles per gallon to their custodians. Present today is a true icon, and it takes shape with this lovely 1970 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible. This muscular classic from the ʼ70s guarantees thunderous performance and the best of the ʼ70s muscle car design to ensure you stand out from the crowd.
The 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, also known as the Chevrolet Malibu, was marketed as “America’s most popular midsize car” in 1969. The silhouette of the second generation Chevelle was designed with a long-hood/short deck shape with a high rear-quarter kick-up, making it easily the most fabulous Chevelle out of all the other generations. The semi-fastback and flowing roofline design was mostly influenced by the legendary Camaro. This Super Sport model boasts the 396ci V8 engine that has recently received maintenance as reported by the current owner. Take one look and no doubt this Chevrolet Chevelle has been meticulously taken care of by its current owner, and is for sale in Bakersfield, California.
