The 1968 Kaiser Jeepster Convertible Deluxe restoration completed by our team here at RJ CARS INC.
Joe Labell bought this in 1991 and had it for many years. Joe’s son Doug hired us to restore it and we have been working hard the last two and a half years to bring it back to life.
The Deluxe model is a rarity among Jeepsters. This one came with a power top, console shift automatic, continental kit, air conditioning, Ramsey PTO driven winch, spinner hub caps and two tone paint.
We added some upgrades including modernizing the AC, front disc brakes, two inch lift kit, power steering, tinted glass, four barrel carburetor and electronic ignition.
The driveline consists of Dana axles, a 225 Buick Dauntless V6 and a turbo 400 GM transmission.
This was a rare and challenging one off build.
