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 .
No pics provided. It might be in great condition.

This might make a good parts wagon at the very least.
“1951 Willys jeep, hurricane 6 cylinder engine, no title”
Pete, who operates the OldWillysForum, contacted me the other day to let me know he lives just down the road from me near Hailey, Idaho. When not working on cars, Pete designs beautiful homes. Check them out at andersonarc.com!
Pete and his kids have been doing some work on a wagon that they recently made road worthy. He shared a video with me that you can view below. It’s always great to see a wagon on the trail, but the best part of the video are the short, funny comments made by his son.
No pics provided. This seller must sell within the next 2 days.

“1950 Jeep Willys Panel. Very unusual panel truck, most of these Jeeps had side windows. This is a 2 WD with what we believe to be a Chrysler 383 with an automatic transmission. They never completed the engine installation and the engine is locked up. The body is very straight and rust free and would make a great project.

“Thanks for looking at this rare old barn find that was parked for 41 years. I am listing for a relative that is second owner for approx. 2 years. This Model 463 has the original 138 Go Devil Flat Head engine. Carb has been rebuilt, new water pump, fuel pump and wiring. 3 Speed on column w/automatic overdrive. Runs and drives great and is all original except for wheels and tires. Spare tire came with the car.This model has the option of BOTH RIGHT AND LEFT HAND DRIVE. (Notice the two glove boxes.) The floor has the openings to change drive side. All body work was done with metal and welded and was extensive around all bottoms of doors, hatchback and fenders. This vehicle has a very nice paint job and is sharp but is not a concourse restoration, just a good solid job. The rear left window is cracked, as well as driver side window. Windshield glass has been replaced. All new weather stripping around entire car. Original colors used on car were Luzon Red, Clear Maple and Mahogony Brown. All wood replaced and wood has been used tastefully (not orig. door panels) on doors and side panels. All photos of restoration will go with car, I have some of the pics for you to see. Seats have original coverings, they were only cleaned of mildew. Rechrome on orig. bumbers is immaculate and thick.
Everything works on vehicle except odometer, speedometer works fine as well as all electrical (lights, etc.) and guages on dash. Even the old heater works.This was an extensive rebuild and care was taken to keep as original as possible/practical. Engine and Transmission have not been rebuilt, just cleaned, serviced and run great. No smoke on starting, etc., cranks right up.
What is wrong with this car??? Other than mentioned above, there is a drop or two per day coming from the overdrive gear on LH side of the transmission when it sits. No other leaks. Car has been driven on trips of approx. 50 miles and no probems. Won 3rd Place at the Charlotte Auto Fair for 40-50s category on August 28, 2010.”
The interior image suggests that the inside might be in good condition.

“Willys Wagon 1950 for sale. I’ve owned this wagon for about 15 years. I think it has a Ford 167 straight six. The kid I bought it from in Oregon said that his grandfather owned it and used it for years. I never worked on it. I have all the window parts. It is really straight for a 60 year old wagon. Has a winch. Very minor rust on the tailgate where almost all of the old ones are shot. Warn hubs”
This looks like a nice conversion.
