Welcome to eWillys.com, a website for vintage jeep enthusiasts. I update this website nearly every day with jeep deals, jeep history, interesting reader projects, jeep related info, and more.
These quick searches can help you find things on eBay. People list in the wrong categories all the time, so don't be surprised to see brochures in the parts area for example.
The links to posts below show jeeps grouped by models, condition, and other ways. Some of these jeeps are for sale and others have been sold. If you are unsure whether a vehicle is still for sale or not, email me at d [at] ewillys.com for more info.
There are plenty of interesting, unusual, historic and surprising stories related to Jeeps and their owners. In addition, some of these features have nothing to do with jeeps. This link will display all featured stories starting from the latest.
Looking for parts and not sure where to go? There are a variety of large and small new and used parts sellers both online and offline.
Importantly, the allure of buying a project jeep can be romantic. The reality of restoring a jeep can be quite different, expensive and overwhelming without the right tools and resources. So, tread carefully when purchasing a "project". If you have any concerns about buying a vintage jeep, or run across a scam, feel free to contact me for help, comments or concerns .

It’s a “Station Sedan”, 6 cylinder 148 motor
Solid back seat, not 2 separate seats.
Top-of-the line wagon for that year. Notice the grille bar that was used on the Jeepster.
Insert on the side called “basket weave”.
I only remember one color (green), but there could have been others.
Dave, that’s a good point. I’m not very disciplined about pointing that out.
This is just plain Class !!
And so is the Woman pictured with it..
Nice to remember when skin and sex didn’t have to be in everything you looked at too.. 🙂

The Station Sedan came in the green with basket weave on the top inserts and also in Luzon Red with basket weave inserts. This one in the photo still has the small hubcaps that the earlier station wagons had. Later 1948 Station Sedans had the full size hubcaps and corresponding wheels like the Jeepster. The spare tire was enclosed in a “shell” on the floor, rather than mounted on the right rear inner wheel well and window area. The little 148 ci engine put out 72 horsepower. Station Sedans were discontinued by Willys on October 30, 1949, the same date the CJ2A and VJ2 463 Jeepsters were discontinued. CJ3A Jeeps and VJ3 463 and VJ3-6 Jeepsters continued on.
