The
most famous machine -- land, sea or air -- to come out of the Second
World War was undoubtedly the ubiquitous Jeep, a sturdy little
go-anywhere, four-wheel-drive, quarter-ton utility vehicle. Designed
and built by Willys-Overland and Ford, the latter under licence, some
600,000 were produced by the time the war ended.
Willys-Overland
replaced the olive drab military colour with brighter hues and traded
the guns, shovels and axes for equipment such as snowplows and
post-hole diggers, marketing the Jeep CJ (Civilian Jeep) as a
multi-purpose machine.

But,
while Willys-Overland of Toledo, Ohio, prospered greatly making
military Jeeps, it was concerned about what it would do after the war.
Its prewar cars were considered unsuitable for the postwar market, so
Willys decided to cash in on the Jeep's outstanding reputation with a
civilian version.
Willys-Overland replaced the olive drab
military colour with brighter hues and traded the guns, shovels and
axes for equipment such as snowplows and post-hole diggers, marketing
the Jeep CJ (Civilian Jeep) as a multi-purpose machine.
The CJ arrived in 1945, with production starting soon after the war ended.
It
was aimed at such markets as farming, utility companies and service
stations, and it was also expected to appeal to sports people and
off-road enthusiasts yearning to escape it all.
Sales of this
military model converted for civilian use encouraged Willys to expand
its lineup. It added the popular Jeep all-steel station wagon in 1946,
followed by pickup and panel trucks in 1947. The Jeepster came in 1948.
The
Jeepster (the name is a combination of Jeep and roadster) was the most
glamorous Jeep of them all, a kind of early post-Second World War
American sports car. Technically a phaeton (the last American one
offered), most simply referred to it as a four-passenger convertible.
Its cut-down doors, folding top, side curtains and attractive colours
gave it a jaunty air, marrying the spirit of the Jeep with the romance
of the convertible.
The Jeepster had been conceived during the
war when the fate of the Jeep was being considered and visions of
civilian versions were beginning to emerge.
Production of the
original Jeepster ceased in 1950, although a few were sold as 1951
models. Total sales for its three-year run were just more than 19,000
-- not enough to convince Willys-Overland to continue production.
There
were other priorities as well. The company had resumed building
military Jeeps for the Korean War, which took up plant capacity, and
preparations were underway for re-entry into the passenger car market.
The
Jeepster was revived in late 1966 by the Kaiser-Jeep Corp.,
Willys-Overland having been acquired by the Kaiser Corp. in 1953. By
this time, however, other sport-utility vehicles such as the Ford
Bronco had come on the scene and the second-generation Jeepster no
longer enjoyed its unique status.
That first Jeepster was an
interesting little chapter in Jeep history. Its sporty nature probably
helped pave the way in North America for the English MG, Austin-Healey
and Triumph sports cars that would soon begin arriving in large
quantities.
