1951 Willys Jeepster, 6-Cylinder, 3-Speed Manual

1951 Willys Jeepster – 6-Cylinder, 3-Speed Manual, Classic Open-Air Cruiser

Classic Cars of Sarasota is proud to offer this charming 1951 Willys Jeepster, a unique piece of American automotive history that blends the rugged heritage of the Willys Jeep with the style and personality of a classic convertible. Finished in White with a new Black canvas top and a White and Black vinyl interior, this Jeepster is ready to enjoy.

Designed by renowned industrial designer Brooks Stevens, the Jeepster was created as a two-wheel-drive sporty convertible intended to bridge the gap between the utilitarian Jeep and the traditional passenger car. Unlike later Jeep models, the Jeepster was designed primarily for the road and featured classic convertible styling, a split windshield, and removable side curtains.

Power comes from a 161 CI 6-cylinder engine producing approximately 75 horsepower, equipped with a single-barrel carburetor and backed by a 3-speed manual transmission with column shift ("3-on-the-tree"). The engine has recently been rebuilt, adding confidence to this already enjoyable vintage cruiser.

Recent work includes a new Black canvas convertible top and side curtains, new tires, replacement of all rubber spring bushings, and a new overdrive switch. The classic presentation is completed with Willys chrome dish hubcaps, wide whitewall tires, chrome bumpers, and a clean, period-correct appearance.

Inside, the White and Black vinyl interior features seat belts and an AM radio, while the removable side curtains provide the authentic open-air experience that makes the Jeepster so distinctive. An owner's manual is included. The 1951 Willys Jeepster is a rare and distinctive American classic with a personality all its own. With its recently rebuilt engine, new top and side curtains, fresh tires, and iconic open-air styling, this Jeepster is ready for weekend cruising, local car shows, and plenty of attention wherever it goes.
