The Jeep Jeepster II was a concept car built in 1979. AMC came up with the idea for a stubby sports, which they called the Jeepster. This concept was more Jeep-like than the Mustang-influenced XJ001. The car was finished in red and had no roof. Designs by Dick Teague were for this new generation Jeep for the 1980s, but AMC lacked the resources to develop it beyond a drawing.
It would have featured:
4-cylinder turbocharged gas engine or lightweight diesel powerplant
Independent suspension at all four wheels
160 inches long
65 inches wide
60 inches height
Two-piece roof design
Bucket seats
Soft front and rear panels
Roll bar
Flat glass folding windshield
Aluminum or fiberglass detachable doors
