About eWillys
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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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.
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 .
“1947 Willy’s. The body is a new reproduction and it’s on a 1957 frame. It needs a full restoration but I have all the parts that were taken off to put the new body on. Also have the old body and a spare frame also. I would love to restore it but don’t have the funds to put into it.”
UPDATE: See Mike’s comments on the history of this wagon in the comments section. Per Mike’s suggestion, I googled BP gas station Broad St., Bloomfield, NJ. Here’s a pic of the front of the wagon:
“Craigslist, Super Hurricane Flat Head
6cyl. 12v alternator
I have this classic Jeep that I no longer need.. First come first serve.. selling as is *does not run/drive* This vehicle will need restoration.”
“Body has had the top cut off and the rear changed to add a rumble seat. Very well done . The fabrication that was done is excellent. Nice finish work. The body was then installed on a custom truck frame .Body work is nice and the paint is nice with real wood trim.. The rumble seat is easy to open and is very strong.
Drive train is a 350 chevy with a nice cam and hei ignition. All new aluminium radiator with new exhaust. Transmission is a turbo 350 that works fine. The rear end is a heavy duty truck rearend? Large tires are also nearly new.

“Restored with a few “retro” touches to upscale the original utilitarian post-war Station Wagon targeted to GI’s that came of age with the companies Jeep.
This is one of the last 400 1949 Willys produced – with the curved rear wheel wells (before they were squared off for the 1950 model year) and 1949 style gauge cluster. As such, it was originally titled as a 1950, likely coinciding with the actual sales date as was common at the time.
About the build:
First, you’ll note the Custom hand painted woodgrain and retro interior. The woodgrain finishes the faux paneling design originally incorporated by Willys.
The engine is the F-134 Hurricane OHV 4 cylinder, first introduced in the wagons in 1950 as an upgrade to the flathead 134 Go Devil. This is backed by a 3 speed manual, connected to the rare Borg Warner overdrive, which makes it into essentially a 6 speed (overdrive is enabled in every gear based on rpm and engagement of a switch under the accelerator).
Additionally, tons of new parts went into this build: Continue reading →
Mike shared this unusual wagon that was supposed to be one of seven modified for use by the US military in Austria (I thought Holden modified wagons in Australia??).
“Extremely rare version from the production in the Holden plant Australia. It was only 7 pieces produced !!! Please compare that you have Google images, they will not be found. Special attention to the moldings and door buckles. 100% rarity with rarity value, value increase etc. etc. 89,200 KM
The vehicle is from military use of the US Army in Austria during the occupation and was one of the oldest military vehicles of the Austrian. Society of the Red Cross in 1951 in Austria.”
