The Jeepster concept utilizes the sleek new lines of the 2018 Wrangler Rubicon as a foundation to which the color palette and speedy styling of the 1966 Jeepster were applied. The lovely two-tone paint-job is characterized by a Firecracker Red body with a Bright White hardtop and body accents. The traditional Jeep badges were also replaced with a unique tri-color Jeepster hard badge.
Believe it or not, the beauty of the Jeepster isn't just skin-deep. Sure, the top may have been shortened by two inches and the windshield raked by 2.5 degrees in the name of panache, but everything still remains functional, and in this case, removable and foldable. Other unique attributes that enhance looks and performance include LED off-road lights that shine bright at up to 8,000 lumens, and a concept tubular roll cage that holds an additional tire and wheel. You know, just in case.
Lastly, no badass Jeep would be complete without giving the suspension some extra love. The Jeepster received a two-inch lift kit and 2.5-inch in diameter aluminum body shocks. The complex and capable setup complements the oversized, 37-inch BF Goodrich Mud-Terrain tires that sit on beadlock-capable 17-inch wheels.
We've reached out to Jeep for more on the Jeepster, and we will update this story when we hear back.
Heck of a job, Jeep, heck of a job.
