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 listing is for a 1953 Willys CJ3B Jeep. Engine runs good, low miles on a rebuild. Frame is solid except rear cross member needs replacement. Grille, hood, and windshield frame, are in good restorable condition, body tub is rough. I bought this Jeep in the spring with the intent of getting a new steel tub and fenders, also doing a full restoration. I have to many projects at this time and don’t want to leave this outside for the winter. Jeep is all original, as far as I can tell and still 6volt. Engine has 50lbs. oil pressure at idle. Asking price is $1,400 but will certainly consider offers. Questions are welcome and thanks for looking!”

(08/25/2010) Here’s a non-restored, beautiful Wagon.
“This is an UNRESTORED, original Willys Wagon. It has been maintained but not restored. The mileage is actual, and it drives as good as it looks. It is not a mint vehicle. The paint has been refreshed at some time, but the old paint was not removed. I suspect it was getting faded. There is very minor surface rust, but I could find no spots that have bubbled through. The vehicle was either factory or dealer undercoated, and this coupled with dry climate and inside storage has preserved it. I had started some detailing under the hood, but there is plenty of work to be finished.
This wagon was originally purchased from Bob Jones Motors in Denver. It was taken to Montana where inside storage and infrequent use preserved it. The interior is unbelievable. the seats are still near perfect, and the grass cloth headliner is uncut and in perfect condition. The wind welt has begun to deteriorate, and I ordered new to replace it. I couldn’t bring myself to do it, as the original red fleck pattern is no longer available, and it is factory original. This has to be one of the best preserved original Willys wagons of this vintage. It comes with an original owners manual, and it’s original jack.
The wheel covers are from a later model. They came with the vehicle, they look good, so I left them on. As far as I know the only non functioning system is the wipers. At some time they were converted to electric, and the currently don’t work. All of the necessary parts to reconvert to vacuum come with the vehicle, along with a number of sare parts that I have gathered over time.”
“You are bidding on a 1950 Willys Overland Jeep station wagon. I recently purchased this vehicle and have done some detailing consisting mainly of touch up of chips in the paint and restoration of the steering wheel. This Jeep is very attractive and draws lots of attention. It is an older restoration that has held up very well. The body is very solid, and the upholstery and headliner are beautifully redone. The paint color is the original Willys adobe beige and tends to look a little lighter in my pictures. I would not hesitate to take this car to area shows although it is not perfect.The exterior trim is good, but the bumpers should be rechromed. The optional wrap around rear bumper extensions are a desirable extra. The woodgrain panels are very nice, but they are not real wood since the Jeep was the first all steel American station wagon. The glass is all good, and rubber has been replaced. The undercarriage is very clean with only the normal light surface rust to be expected on a vehicle that is driven at all. The engine is the original Hurricane 4 cylinder and runs very well. However, a person who is used to driving modern cars will find it to be under powered and primitive handling. It is a Jeep and handles like one. It would not be easy to find a better and more original Jeep than this. As you can see, the wheels and tires are not original, but otherwise there are no significant modifications. The mileage shown is not correct and probably not a good indication of condition since extensive restoration was done. Feel free to ask questions, and you are welcome to inspect the vehicle. The buyer is responsible for transportation of the car, and I will help in any way I can. If you want to talk to me directly, I can be reached at (618) 684-3707 (days) or (618) 426-3449. The winning bidder should pay a $500 deposit within three days of the auction ending with balance upon pickup of the vehicle. Deposit can be through Paypal , or the buyer may make other arrangements by contacting me.”
