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 .
(05/14/2017) Seller is moving and can’t take it with him.
“I purchased a ’46 Willy’s from a friend in hopes of enjoying it for a summer. I ended up having to do some work on it and didn’t get to use it. I’m moving in the near future and cannot take it with me. I’m asking less than what I have into it. Since I purchased it I have put in a new fuel pump and filter, new carburetor, new battery and replaced multiple wires and fuel lines as well. I have the original collector plates and also new WA plates that still have yet to be installed. This will be a fun rig for someone this spring and summer.”

It’s had alot of work done to it but I have far too many projects. Mainly looking to sell but I may entertain offers and trades clean title in hand”

Contact me if interested in buying only. I do not need assistance selling my vehicles.”
“Selling my Willys Jeep project. It was on here before, but all the calls wanted to hear it run. I did a lot of work to get it running, including a starter overhaul, relay, battery, and wiring.
It runs, but acts like the main jet is clogged. It idles well, but doesn’t have much power. I don’t have a kit or the time to rebuild it.
Starts with the key. Alternator works, but no indication, as I didn’t put in the ammeter or voltmeter. Has oil pressure. Everything in the brakes was replaced. Cylinders (wheel and master), lines, and shoes. NO PARKING BRAKE. New radiator and hoses. Turn signals added, but not wired. NO TITLE. 4WD and transfer case all work. Has the 3 lever transmission setup. 3 speed manual. Engine is the 4 cylinder flathead.
This jeep IS NOT a candidate for restoration. The frame and body are mostly held together with poorly done welding. It has poorly welded in floorboards. You won’t fall through. The front frame horns do not exist. No tailgate. I do have 3 of the 16 inch wheels.
Can’t find any numbers on the frame or body, but I do have a set of military dataplates I will include. This Jeep needs to leave on a trailer. It is not ready to be driven on the road.
I’ll reduce the price by $500 if it doesn’t start when you come to look at it.’
“1950 Willy’s Jeep, 350 motor, T90 transmission, original axels under it, full roll cage, winch bumper with winch, rear air bumper, rear rack with gas can mounts.”

UPDATE: Dan’s laid out a caravan schedule for next weekend’s Open House.
Subsitute caravan leader Dan “scramboleer” here. Just a reminder that the Willys America Open House and BBQ is just a few Saturdays away on July 8.
The 2017 Caravan basically takes the morning to drive from Millbrae (south of San Francisco), across the Golden Gate Bridge, and then out through western Wine Country to Cazadero where Willys America hosts an open house and BBQ.
Here are the details:
Begin route on Hwy 280 North.
Stop 1: 8:00 am – 8:15 am Trousdale Exit on northbound Highway 280. (This exit is in Millbrae, meet on the east side parking area after the off ramp). The exit is about 5 miles north of Hwy 92.
Follow 280 North. Take 19th Avenue north through San Francisco to the Golden Gate Bridge (Hwy 101).
Stop 2: 8:45 am – 9:15 am Golden Gate Bridge vista point. (Located on northeast side of bridge.) Great picture spot!
Continue Hwy 101 north to Petaluma. Exit west onto Lakeville Road., Stop at McDonald’s at the shopping center on Lakeville Rd.
Stop 3: 10:00 am-10:20 am McDonald’s parking lot in Petaluma. (Exit west on 116/Lakeville St. and look for McDonald’s)
Continue on North 101 and exit at Hwy 116 West (Gravenstein Hwy towards Guerneville). Follow Hwy 116 through Forestville, Monte Rio and turn North onto the Cazadero Hwy. Follow Cazadero Hwy until you see Willys America, 6152 Cazadero Highway Cazadero, CA 95421.
This jeep seems to be expecting to be deep in water.
