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 .
This seller has a variety of wagons and trucks for sale, though none run.

“Parkway conversion, 4 wheel drive “Maverick”, complete trucks and parts trucks.”
This wagon will require some effort to move. It’s also a bit remote for most folks.

“Posting for a friend. He has 3 willys wagons for sale with tons of extra parts. Located in Finley WA. Best to go look at them rather than ask me a ton of questions. Interested parties will receive a phone number to schedule a time to have a look.”

Bill shared this modified wagon. It’s got no bids with three days to go. According to the site, this runs and drives.

We’ve all run across these examples (and the reason for the Last Ride category, which I’d forgotten about), but Mr. Binks shared this parts wagon priced at $2000! I guess if a fella finds a fool willing to fali for it ….

“PARTS TRUCK ! Still descent parts motor trans axles seats there , currently located in yorkville , Ill with be bringing to poplar grove I’ll by Rockford soon – text for prices or hole ?”
Mike shared this photo with me a few weeks ago during this trip through Texas. The wagon looked familiar, but I couldn’t place it, so I’d planned to circle back when I had some time for research.
I finally discovered why I recognized it. Tim Evans and his wife had their photos taken in front of it during their visit in 2017, which I posted at that time. Tim noted in his email to me that Magnolia Silos had been featured on HGTV, and those folks who know of the Silos are also familiar with ChIp and Jo Gaines (my mother was a big fan). The wagon is a popular photo op and you can see some of those photos here. Given we were in Waco in 2017, I’m not sure how we missed doing our own photo op there.
I also found a video online:
Andy spotted this oddity. I am guessing it is a modified wagon. Hard to see just how much work has been done to it.

“Does this interest someone it needs to be moved its ready to roll I have no titles for either but the city is saying i cant have anything Parked here til i get gravel put down an cant afford to do that right now ]: someone take this off my hands plz”
I”m guessing this was for hunting. No description provided.

The seller notes the title indicates it is a 1955, but the body style, grille and dash suggest late 1940s.
https://austin.craigslist.org/cto/d/hutto-1955-jeep-willys-wagon/7638483053.html
“1955 Jeep Willys- Per Title/VIN. Small block chevy 350, 3 speed transmission not sure which one, needs wheel cylinders for the brakes and transmission linkage adjusted. Runs, 2 wheel drive”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was No Price.
This looks like a solid build.

This might be worth a look if the body is as solid as advertised.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1600. It’s confirmed that this isn’t a Traveler.
Listed as a 1949, the seller believes this to a be a Traveler, but it’s obviously made too early to be that.
“1949 Willys Traveler 2wd No motor or trans but mostly complete besides that. No title. $1600”
Andy shared this jeep. I can’t tell if it is a truck or wagon, but it runs.

“1962 Willy’s Panel Truck 4 speed, 4wd, edelbrock carburetor, 350 chevy, dual exhaust. Needs paint but runs and sounds good. Solid body. NOT interested in trading anything.”
Whether this originally had the images on it or not, someone had some fun giving this wagon a vintage theme. This looks to be a Parkway Conversion?

“I have a super cool 1948 Willys Overland. It’s on a S10 frame, 4.3 V6, Automatic transmission, power steering, disc brakes, nice interior. This is a blast to drive. Gets a ton of attention. It would be awesome at a lake resort or at the beach.”

Recently I got a great price on 30+ Willys World news letters from 1974-1985. There were a few interesting nuggets in several issues.
One the cover of the March-April 1982 issue appears this Willys-Overland photo, taken February 2, 1950. The pic shows what W-O called a “Herman Panel Delivery Van”. The model-name itself is curious, as Willys had referred to the earlier (and later) versions of this van as a Package, Economy, or Delivery Van.
Herman was a van-body manufacturer, as this brochure shows. Note the dual windows on the door. This is similar to what the company designed for Willys-Overland.
My guess is the Herman Panel Delivery van was a prototype. For some reason, it appears it was never a production model. However, Willys-Overland did work with the Boyertown and Montpelier companies to create a similar version in the late 1950s.

Update: **Sold** was $2750.
Mike spotted this deal on four wagons for the right person. Looks like there are lots of parts.

“This wagon has been in the family for for the past 13 years. It has been on many long road trips. The car is in storage but I can put the battery back in it and drive it to any one of the COASTS, I am that confidant in my wagon! The car would be considered a restomod. The frame and body are the regional, the rest of it has been upgraded. 350ci V8 , Th350 transmission, 9” rear differential w/275 ratio, power disc brakes on all 4 wheels, mustang ll independent front suspension, manual Rack & pinion steering, all new 12 volt wiring harness that has been wrapped and hidden very clean, New aluminum radiator and trans cooler, New GPS speedometer and gauges. There is way too much to list. I have restored this wagon twice over the time I have owned it and have driven it some were between 25000/30000 miles. Looking to sell to finish my next project, I hate to sell it but if you a classic car owner you understand . “
