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 .

“Original survivor. 98% rust free. So California Jeep. Excellent candidate for restoration. 95% of original parts still intact. 6 volts. This Jeep still runs and drives. Used as a parade Jeep for last 10 years. Clean California Title Nellybelle #3 or urban Myth? When I purchased this Jeep, the owner said it was bought from the movie studios in 1975. There were supposed to be 3 Nellybelle’s: A close up Jeep; a Stunt Jeep and a Long Distance Jeep. This was said to be the Long Distance Jeep. I have never been able to verify this. There is an engine noise that seems to be coming from harmonic balancer pulley area (not internal engine). Dualamatic overdrive has bad gear noise. Small channel on passenger side rusted out. 15” wheels.”

“A friend has a 1959 Willis jeep/ wagon. It in pretty fair shape and seems to be original stock. 2 WD, inline6, single barrel, VERY lite rust barn stored. Have pictures call or text if you have an idea of current value, restored value/ collect ability. Any info would be much appreciated. Thanks”
(06/28/2013) This looks pretty straight. It’s not entirely stock.
“Current registration and insurance, clear title in hand.
Body- Dented, rusty, some minor repairs done by prior owner. It is very useable as is, actually better than most project jeeps I looked at before buying this one, but needs work to be perfect. Some of the hat channels underneath are rusted and need repaired. This is actually very solid, just want you to know what to expect.
Frame- Solid, no major issues or rust that I have found.
Engine- GPW (ford) 4cyl engine. (this is the military version of the stock motor= not the factory original engine). The GPW is a nice addition depending on your plans, as it it worth more than the stock motor as many people restoring military jeeps would like to have the original style motor. Engine runs good overall, but the exhaust needs to be removed and the heat exchanger flap freed up. This is the flap that re-circulated exhaust air around the intake when the engine is cold to make it run better. It is common for these to seize up and cause the exhaust air to always heat the intake. This causes the gas to get hot in the carb and flood the engine. I had this freed up last year, but it sat over winter and is stuck again. Radiator was rebuilt last year, like new.
“I have a 1954 4×4 WILLYS pickup truck with a PTO winch. It has the 226 6cyl. motor 3spd. Truck is all original except being changed to 12 volt system. It is not perfect, leaks a little oil from rear main and has a small dent in the drivers door but can be driven daily. Its a head turner and you don’t see very many of these anymore. $10,000.00 For more info.”
