THE MODEL

The 1967 Kaiser Jeepster is a true automotive classic that embodies the rugged and adventurous spirit of its era with its distinctive design and open-top configuration, the model was built from 1967-1971. The Jeepster featured a sturdy body-on-frame construction, making it well-suited for off-road adventures, while its compact dimensions made it practical for city driving. Under the hood was either a 4 cylinder or a V6 engine. The Jeepster's timeless styling, which included a classic vertical grille and round headlamps, made it an icon of its time and with approximately 3000 built, a sought-after collector's item today.
