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 .
A reader named Shep spotted this very clean, original looking wagon.
“Willys Wagon 1956 4×4, 327 chevy runs great, very solid & clean truck, spent its life in california until being shipped to missouri 6 months ago. 660-229-2060”
http://columbiamo.craigslist.org/cto/1834650061.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
It runs and drives. I don’t see any rust.
“1960 WILLYS WAGON. RUNS AND DRIVES. NEEDS MASTER CYLINDER FOR BRAKES. $2000 .”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3800.
This looks in great shape especially for an old Ohio vehicle.
“
161 6 cyl; 3 speed transmission with O/D; All original; Runs Great; Asking $3800.00 or reasonable offer;”
This looks quite nice.
“This Willys is in great shape! It needs some minor work, but runs good. The body is super solid. There are a couple of nicks in the paint, but nothing major. We’ve kept it in the garage, and have only driven it to a few car shows around town. The previous owner rebuilt, and painted it before he passed away. He took great care of this beauty, and entered many car shows with it. His son put it up for sale and we bought it.
Before that, we know nothing about the vehicle. We have owned this vehicle for about 3 years. This vehicle was rebuilt by the previous owner with these added features: 3.8 Buick V6, 350 Turbo Automatic Transmission, B&M Floor Shifter, custom built interior, black carpeting inside cargo area, Pioneer Stereo, bright yellow paint.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** was $6800.
This appears in good shape.
“1958 Willys Wagon, very rare for Las Vegas. 4X4 with Hurricane flathead 6 factory motor. This Wagon runs great and is all original except for tires and wheels. New tires, battery, and recent rebuild master cylinder. Brake lines bleed with new brake fluid.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500.
(05/20/2010) This is a nice color scheme.
“‘1950’s Willys Jeep Wagon. In excellent condition inside and out, runs like a champ. 3 speed, 4 wheel drive, original drive train, 302 motor, 2 tone green. This jeep would make an excellent Hot August Night Project. Must see to appreciate.”
This looks like a good price given the condition and upgrades; However, are those windows that are painted in the back.
“51′ Willy on a 86′ Toyota chasie, Vortex V6, Edelvrock intake, Edelvrock carbarator, B&M Torck converter, Turbo 350 Trane, B&M Shifter. No Smoge, current tags, airbags and class 2 tow hitch.

UPDATE: **SOLD* Was $2500.
The body looks straight with little rust. But, the motor is in pieces.
“1956 Willys Wagon 2 wd 4 cylinder. Restorable Jeep. Body in good condition. Motor in proces of being reasembled. Notebook with matinence history.”

http://seattle.craigslist.org/oly/cto/1862545519.html
UPDATE: Was $4500. **SOLD**
(07/02/2010) This looks nice. The seller suggests this is in show quality condition. If the restoration really is that nice, this might be a good price.
“1960 Willys 2WD Station Wagon, Stock, Rebuild Original 6 cylinder engine with overdrive and kick down. Very rare, in good driving condition, body in excellent shape, but rust in lower back of car. Excellent condition for show quality restoration. Includes binder with interesting advertisements and literature from 1960.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
This is a nice looking Wagon. There are a few very minor issues with it.
“I bought this all original wagon in 2004 from wagonmaster.com about five years ago. When I bought the wagon it was advertised as having a “freshly rebuilt Hurricane 6 engine” and I am the third owner.
It is a very fun and wonderful wagon. The color combination of gold (khaki) and president red (an original Willy’s color) are a stunning combination. I get comments on it all of the time. The other day I drove it to work (four miles from my house) and I got two thumbs up on the freeway and a “shout out” from a young lady who professed love for my Willy’s! This happens all of the time.
I will, occasionally, rent my cars out for advertising photo shoots. This past fall Lands End used my wagon for the cover page of their nationally distributed Christmas catalog. I am told Lands End received a lot of inquiries about the Willy’s itself and if it was for sale….”
UPDATE: price dropped to $6000
(07/15/2010) This is one of those odd title situations — I can understand on a non op why an owner might delay getting a title, but I don’t understand it on a vehicle that is driven around …
“1960 Willys wagon, 2 wheel drive. Converted to a bone stock Chevy 350 V8, auto trans & Chevy 10 bolt rear end, (not a Mickey Mouse job). Has “I” beam front drop axel, rack & pinion power steering, drum brakes all around, BMW wheels, new tires, tilt front body, new carpet, FM CD player, reverse arched front leaf springs, lowering blocks in rear, surf boards & racks, redwood headliner, dual quiet Flowmaster type mufflers, electric & stock engine fans. no leaks anywhere! Temp does not get above 160. Runs like a champ! This is NOT a show car, but what a blast to drive! I have the title, but it is still in previous owners name. It has been signed off and I have bill of sale from him. I will also give bill of sale. Tags good through Oct. Question? Please ask! ….. Please email me through Craigslist or @ www.stevierayvon@aol.com. I will get back with you as soon as I can. ..Located in Lakewood, Ca. 90715. Thanks”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000.

(10/03/09) This is a nice looking Wagon. I thought the use of the background blurs was unusual.
“Call 415-706-4855 or 415-453-0270. 1957 Willys Jeep Wagon. Arguably the first SUV ever made. It has a rebuilt inline 6-226 cubic inch Super Hurricane engine with a 4WD (4-Wheel-Drive) 3-speed transmission. It has gear levers for both front and rear transaxles.

http://humboldt.craigslist.org/cto/1848975745.html
This is a great looking Wagon … but who actually appraises vehicles and why don’t the know what they are doing? I mean, it appraised at $19,000? That is nuts.
“1948 Willys Town Delivery SBC-350 turbo 8 ¾ crystler 355 gears power disk brakes. $12,000 invested, $19,000 appraised,
