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 .
**SOLD**
“1951 Willys Wagon. Was in the 1990 movie “Waiting for the Light” – driven home and parked after that and never moved again. Appears to be missing radiator at this time. Has been undercover since the 80’s that I can remember. Interior is in original state. Exterior was painted for the movie.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800
The seller claims this is a 1962 Maverick, but I understand they were only produced in 1960? Glenn believes this may just be an old inventory item that was sold the next year. He also notes the side chrome is very hard to find. It may be worth a closer look.
“This is a rare “maverick” edition. I bought it to restore but have too many projects. It does need total restoration but all parts and body panels available. It does run but smokes. Needs brake work but emergency brake works. 6cyl 3spd and its 2wd.”
No engine, but it appears like a solid project rig.

“1951 Willys-Overland Wagon, 4×4, original 4-cyclinder engine. Sold complete, as is, I will not part-out the vehicle. I have the middle seat and a used Willys-Overland chrome bumper in very good condition that I bought for the project. I’ll throw throw these two items into the deal (the bumper currently on the car was destroyed by a previous owner by installing a hitch tab). The body has some wear and tear but no significant rust. This vehicle is is great shape for it’s age and is in fantastic shape for those that have the time and money to restore it. Sorry, but I am firm on the price of $1900. You will need to tow or trailer the vehicle. Cash only (no checks, no credit cards, no money orders, no trades)”
This looks good.

“1949 Willys Wagon – 4WD
The 4WD is rare. 1949 was the first year that Willys introduced the 4WD to the Wagon.
The Wagon is in good running condition and is great for shows and Sunday driving.
A paint job would help improve the look of the Wagon.
The car comes with an overdrive (that is not installed) and some spares.
The car is a rare piece of history! This is care created the lineage that now boasts the various Jeep Cherokees.”

“Hi , I’ve got a 1952 Jeep Willys that has been sitting in my garage for quite a while now. It’s not in great shape , but for the most part still pretty solid. Has some rust , has a hole in front drivers floor board. It’s a 6 volt system , but if I remember correctly , my father in law told me it was converted to 12 volt. All the glass is original , as well as the body and interior parts.It’s interior has been mostly gutted. The motor is original to my knowledge and was overhauled not long before it was put in storage. It’s full time 4 wheel drive , but the front axle was taken out by my father in law , I believe to help with fuel mieage , when he was driving it. I have been wanting to fix it up , but with bills and kids , it’s not going to happen for a while longer. ”
This looks like a solid project.
