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 .

Joe-in-Mesa let me know that Mike from History Channel’s American Pickers bought a 1950s wagon during an episode titled The Joy of Sax (this link may or may not work for people — it didn’t for me). He bought for $6000. Mike figured shipping it would be $1000, repairs would be $1000, bringing his total expected investment to $8000. He hoped to sell it for $10,500. Overall it looked to be a solid wagon. However, given it didn’t run and the tires needed replacing, I think he was underestimating the amount for repairs. Did anyone else see the show and have thoughts about it?
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $800.

Craig spotted this nice looking wagon.
“1950 Willys wagon, 2 wheel drive, mostly original, v8, automatic, great driver. Garage kept, no rust, excellent running condition. Have some fun.”
I agree with the seller. This could be a good deal for the right person.
“Selling my 1947 Willys Overland station wagon. All original with 4 cylinder motor and manual 3-speed transmission. The transmission is a factory overdrive. THIS VEHICLE IS COMPLETE AND ORIGINAL BUT DOES NOT RUN AND SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A PROJECT. Body is in fair condition. Needs new gas tank and fuel lines, master cylinder and all brake lines, brake shoes and wheel cylinders. Also needs new clutch and new suspension rubber parts. The engine does not run and the transmission and rear end are not tested. The engine rotates freely but has several broken stud bolts. Wagon is 2 wheel drive from the factory. All components are original from the factory. Title is clear for CA and non-op. Great opportunity for the right buyer.”

“Runs, Rebuilt master cylinder. Winch works. Additional parts included. Fair to good tires.”
(From the previous ad) “Caterpillar yellow covers this real life piece of 60’s history. Formerly driven by the Director of Field Training for the National School of Heavy Equipment, Charlotte, North Carolina. The school was founded by Gilbert S. Shaw in 1955 and operated until 1976. Apparently it was the first school of it’s kind in the world! It was painted for the school, then sold, had a 1970’s “restoration” and then sat for another 30 years. The 70’s restoration included a dash modification & a coat of ugly, drab tan. Our “restoration” process included many steps of hand sanding and polishing the entire vehicle to expose the school’s door sign and yellow paint job. Plus of course, clean up, repair, and history research..”
