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 .
Craig shared this nice looking wagon. I can’t remember if this has been listed previously.
“Beautiful Panel Delivery new brakes, tires. runs like a top. gets a lot of looks”

UPDATE: **Status Unknown** was $16,500.
(04/07/2017) Nicely updated wagon.
“Summer cruiser. This is a great little Willys wagon that has an older restoration that is still in great shape. It looks great and the 4-bolt main 350 sounds fantastic. It has a 700R4 transmission to get that great overdrive and fuel economy for cruising to those great summer cruise ins’. I have a three-ring notebook and a cd full of the history for this great little rig. I will list a few items below but really to much to list all so if you are interested please call and we can discuss.
It has:
350 with a 4-bolt block W/Comp cam
Flow master 50 mufflers
700-R4 Automatic transmission
Vintage air conditioning
Dakota digital dash instruments
Power steering and Brakes
Disc brakes on the front
American Racing wheels that were put on just before I purchased it
Front suspension – Heidt’s Super Ride 2
Rear End is a Currie 4 link
Coil overs front and rear
Headers
Paint overall is in great shape but as all older restoration could use come spot work as I show in one of the pictures but if you look at the CD I have, you will see they did a great job on it. Lots of pictures.
If you are looking for a great cruiser this summer give me a call and come look at this little beauty. I will not respond to emails so put your contact information in the email and I can contact you. I prefer a phone call, but Text is ok. You won’t be disappointed in this little rig.”

Looks good. The interior “diamond plating” on the ceiling is actually thin plastic sheets cut to fit the side panels and headliner.
“According to Willys records, less than 12,000 wagons were produced in 1959. All were powered by the Super Hurricane 226 Cubic Inch inline 6-cylinder flat head engine. Combined with the 3 speed manual transmission, this drive train produced a neck-snapping 115 HP and could almost reach 55 mph down hill with a tail wind. These wagons came in both the two-wheel and four-wheel drive models and were designed for strength and durability, not speed.
It is difficult to find any of these vehicles today. For the most part, those that do exist do not resemble the original. Most have been subjected to the “improvements” of a high-powered engine and transmission swap.
This rare example has seen restoration efforts by 3 successive owners since 2008. Each has added his or her contribution but no effort has been made to change the original 58 year-old powertrain.

Stock axles and transfer-case, overdrive and t-case, with a 350 SBC conversion under the hood. Motor has aprox 20K miles on it.
This one looks in good shape. Barry spotted it. It almost looks like the rear wheels are larger than the fronts. It must be an optical illusion?
“I am selling my 52 Willys overland, frame off restoration with a little over 23k mileage. Runs and drives really nice, very fun to drive. I have too many projects and need to let this one go. I will consider trades for running drivable Camaro, Chevelle or an 87 Monte Carlo SS hardtop. ”

“If your looking for an all original Jeep Willys Wagon, your search is over. This thing is in really great shape and would be worth your time to come take a look. This jeep is 55 years old so it has cosmetic opportunities, but if you spent some time just buffing this thing out, it would look amazing. There is no rust anywhere on this jeep and it’s been in the garage for most of it’s life and it shows. Just spent $800 on getting it tuned up, but it still has a carb issue. You can come hear it run and we can drive it, but the carb struggles with keeping this thing fed. I had it in four-wheel drive this winter so I know that works as well. The engine is the flat head 6 cylinder. The only other issue is a couple flaws in the headliner and the driver door needs a new latch. Other than that, not much wrong with this unit. Let me know if you’re interested in coming out to take a look.”
Looks nice.
