Question
Where can I get a manual for a 1948 Willys Jeepster? Also, where can I get access to parts for the same car?

Answer
My stock answer for “where can I find….” Is to latch on to a copy of Hemmings Motor News, the old car hobbies classified bible. There are many companies that supply parts for old cars, trucks, and now RV’s and you will find them in Hemmings. www.hemmings.com
