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 .
This is a pretty simple puzzle, but I doubt many exist.
“This is a 5″ X 7″ jigsaw puzzle produced in 1969 by the Fred Bronner Corporation, the US importer of Matchbox cars to promote the British line of diecast model cars. There are 8 puzzles in the set, and I have all eight listed now on eBay. Six of the eight listed are still sealed in the factory shrink-wrap. This particular one, the Standard Jeep number 72, has no shrink-wrap, but all pieces are there, and it is in excellent condition.”
How about this perfect jeep for your favorite San Diego Charger fan.
“THIS AWESOME ALL METAL JEEP CUSTOM BEACH CRUISER HONORS THE SAN DIEGO CHARGERS!
HAND PAINTED, WITH A CUSTOM MADE WIND SHIELD AND SIDE WINDOWS, WITH CUSTOM INTERIOR PENNANTS AND SCALE FOOTBALL, WITH CUSTOM MADE GRAPHIX MAKES THIS COOL CAR A MUST FOR ANY CHARGERS FAN YOU KNOW.”
This is located in the UK, but is being shipped to the US. See the description for more info.
“This rare 1953 AR51 Matta 4×4 has been in my storage for years. It is amazingly original and unmolested, a real surviver. I guess the reason why I never touched it is the fact that it is a real time wrap, never restored or modified in anyway, as many of these AR51-52 were. It still has its original gray paint, with some surface rust here and there. It looks to be complete with all unique parts, windscreen fittings, wiper motors with wipers, headlamps screens, etc. The Matta is very solid, doors shut perfectly (they are detachable by lifting them off when open!), all panels sit properly. As far as I can tell it has never been dismantled or restored in any way. There are rust spots, but generally surface rust, as the metal is very thick.
There are some rust holes, mainly in the floors, but of course very simple to repair. All original mechanically – engine is original dry sump , still turning by hand, complete with all ancillaries, air filter etc. Interior is very simple, but all original, seat frames, complete instrument panel etc. Seat covers are shot, but springs are there and should be usable. It has a dual spare wheel, one originally fitted on the hood, the other now loose, possibly fitted at rear. Top frame bows are there, the top fabric has deteriorated over the years. The main rust issues that can be seen are some floor rust holes, and some rust at the underside of the hood. One of the side rails at the rear is a bit bent downward, but can be easily straightened.
It is not road worthy and would need restoration (to my opinion a very sympathetic restoration – not to destroy the original look)
I will include the “Matta” book, which is an excellent reference and parts book.
This is a rare and original Matta, I have seen several of these over the years, but never one in such an original condition.
It is located in my storage in the UK, now being shipped over to the US. Since I have decided to sell it on, I thought of advertising it prior to shipping. The new owner can choose the port of destination. Shipping cost of approximately $1200 is to be paid by the buyer.
Please email for more information you might need.”
A surprisingly brief description. It looks good, but the pictures aren’t as helpful as they should be given the price of the jeep.
“Mighty mite Jeep in excellent condition. Runs good. Recent restoration. Drives like a dream! Has new seat covers and canopy. I can ship it to you! (Fee might apply)”
The right fenders looks slightly roughed up, but the jeep looks good otherwise.

“1942 GPW matching numbers title frame and engine. Very hard to find! Engine runs well, 90 PSI all cylinders. 50 PSI oil cold, drops to 40 plus at fast idle warm. T-84 intact. Tub could be saved, but not for faint of heart. Missing: Correct grill, seats, gas tank and rear script. Incorrect air cleaner, oil filter (has full flow) and wheels. Very good frame.”
Dan spotted this wagon. He notes it’s a good deal if the price stays low.
“1953 Willys Overland Station Wagon…..2Wheel Drive. I’m not 100% sure of the exact year model but believe it to be a 53. The truck is in extremely good shape and the only rust I have found on the vehicle is the front floor pans. The rust in the front pans is only in the center of the sheet metal and is not into the structure or seams of the pan. There is no engne or transmission. The rear floors, doors, rockers, tailgate, roof seam, etc., are in perfect shape. Suspension is all original. All the glass is still in the truck…some is cracked in places but is all there.
All in all a very nice rust free (for the most part) Willys Overland. It was going to be a personal project but you know the story…..along came a baby girl !!! And we all know which one took priority. You won’t be disappointed in the body on this truck …it is in very nice condition.”
