Civvy Street Jeep
This is the Willys-Overland Jeepster, the distinct design of Brooks Stevens, and an early example of a cross-over vehicle. The buying public were not ready in 1948 for a vehicle that later became cult, and after sales of around just 19,000, production was halted in 1950. This pristine example is parked outside Sloppy Joe's Bar, one of Key West's most famous, which boasts of its Ernest Hemingway connections.
