eBay Search

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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.

Jeeps Showcase

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.

Buying Tips

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 .

Jeep Loader Options Over the Years

June 12, 2024 • CATEGORIES: Advertising & Brochures, Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: This was first posted March 20, 2018.

This post began as a reference to a Farm Collector article about Jeep Loaders by Jim Gay. It turns out that there were several loaders that weren’t included. Below you’ll find the most complete list I’ve been able to assemble.

FARM COLLECTOR ARTICLE:

Baldwin Loader
Mahl Loader
Morton Loader
Schenecker Hydraulic Lift Loader (posted here)
Jeep-A-Loader
This appears to be a lone surviving example of a Scheneker Loader:
Unknown Loader (probably custom one-off)
Tow-Loader
A 1955 Willys Product Merchandising Manual mentions a Gran Hydraulic Loader. These were rear loaders. More on them soon.

1962 Traveller Wagon Kansas $7500

June 12, 2024 • CATEGORIES: Fire/Police/Industry Vehicles, Willys Wagons This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This is a project. It lacks an engine, transmission and tc.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/2382510764/permalink/10160159423210765/

“For Sale RARE 1 of 9 1962 Willys wagon traveller 2wd built for the Forestry Service. The price is $7500 or very close offer. The wagon has a good KS title in my name. I don’t have to sell it but I’m moving and probably won’t have time to get to it soon. The original engine, transmission, and shifter are missing and were when I bought it. If I build it I will change the suspension and drivetrain which really shouldn’t happen. The shifter in the pictures is just sitting on the floor and no modifications have been made. This wagon started out as a panel that was converted at the factory into the people hauling traveller that it is today. That is the reason for the rounded wheel wells. The paint is original and it is about as solid as it gets. I would say that the miles and interior are original. The spare tire mounts behind the drivers seat and the rear seats flip up and latch to haul other items. I bought from an estate years ago and I believe that the gentlemen likely bought it for the Forestry signs he removed from both front doors. The license plate on the back is Colorado 1970 and it was in place when I bought it. Let me know if your serious and have questions.”
