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 .
Not a bad price for a column shift T-90 and BW Overdrive. The Engine is seized.
“THIS IS A F HEAD ENGINE IT WAS ORIGINALLY OUT OF A 62 WILLYS WAGON 2WD IT IS JUST A CORE AS IT APPEARS TO BE SEAZED UP BUT HAS A 12 VOLT STARTER GENERATOR THAT CAN BE USED ALSO ON A L HEAD ENGINE THIS IS COMPLETE FROM FAN TO TRANSMISSION

This sounds like a great price.
“Have a newly rebuilt Chevy SM420 transmission. Bought it originally for my Willys wagon and never installed after going with a different drive train. This trans is one of the best for off roading due to its low 1st gear and is great in short wheelbase rigs since its only about a little over a foot long. This Trans also comes with an extra 420 that is not in great shape but its extra parts! I also have a Advanced Adapters SM420 to Dana 18 alum. adapter along with a twin stick Dana 18 T-case for sale as well. Asking $300 for the two trannys. If you have any questions just give me a call at 909 519 5787 Thanx!”

Dan just picked up this SM420 pretty cheaply, but it has a remote shifter rather than a tower shifter. Anyone have a SM420 Tower they don’t need? If so, leave a comment below and I’ll make sure Dan get’s your message.
Dan notes this tranny came from a M-561 6×6 (note inscription on serial number). Here’s a link to Olive Drab which describes them.
Here’s a combo for sale. I don’t think it’s a great price, but worth watching in case the price drops.
“i have a t-10 transmission mated toa dana 18 transfer case i pulled out of my cj-3a it also has a warn overdrive unit everything works fine i’m just doing a different set up i want $1200 o.b.o for everything , SOLD AS A UNIT I WILL NOT SPLIT THEM UP ,
Contact John @ 909-518-5106”
A brand new adapter will run around $450 (here’s one for $479). I suspect these are hard to find used.
“call for a pic or e-mail. there are no cracks and no abuse. i also have a ford bronco frame set up for a willys wagon 4×4. there is a 351w a c6 tranny and a np 208 transfer case. 1200.00 for the whole frame.”
I believe this is a rancho BW overdrive. Here’s a pic of one installed on an M-38a1. This was posted a month ago.
As a side note, I ran across a thread that suggested Rancho made an adapter plate to mount a rancho BW overdrive onto a Dana 20 tranny (‘herk’ comment 12/07/2007). I thought that was interesting. Sierra also made an overdrive for the Dana 20. Here’s an article on various overdrives from JP Magazine.
“used for a Jeep. Been sitting around need to get rid of it. Call Randy 775-266-4776 leave a message I’ll return calls in evening. Thanks”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $750
The Husky Overdrives are very rare. Here are some overdrive links.
“For sale: T90 Transmission, Dana 18 Transfer Case, & Husky overdrive out of a 1962 Willy’s Jeep CJ5. Comes with a bell housing and adaptor for a small block Chevy if you want it. All worked when pulled a couple of years ago. Dana 18 overdrives are hard to come by. Husky copied Warns overdrive until Warn sued them and they had to stop. They are supposed to be just as good as the Warn unit.
This is a deal. The Dana 20/Turbo 400 adapter is $537. Heck, the cooler alone would cost $40 new. If still available, I'll pick this up on Wednesday, use the cooler myself, and resell the rest.
"What we have here a Turbo 400 transmission attached to a Dana 20 transfer case. The Turbo 400 is the BOP style pattern. This set up was removed from a Jeep frame.Worked great, only issue with it was the gasket between the trans and transfer leaked. What you see in the pic is what you get.Will not seperate this. If you want just one piece of this set up, you will have to purchase the whole thing. Tried to show all parts in the pics. Located in Tacoma."
