Built by Willys-Overland and Kaiser Jeep, this vehicle is recognized by sight to this day, and introduced the iconic seven-bar front grille.

Here’s a 1951 Willys Jeep Wagon 350ci from South Carolina which has undergone a rebuild. If you’re looking for a classic Willys Jeep Wagon but one that’s had a few tasteful mods and will stand out on the road, here’s the ideal candidate.
The Willys Jeep Wagon was designed by Brooks Stevens in a process that used simple sheet metal for the body shapes. This made it very popular for Willys to produce economically by outsourcing body production, as well as for repairing when damaged. This 1951 Willys Jeep Wagon 350ci was repainted before the current seller purchased it, and wears an eye-catching coat of yellow with contrasting dark ‘Woodie’ accents as was popular at the time. Chrome accents complete the body, and it rolls on a set of 15-inch yellow-painted steel rims with chrome bands and center caps, with Michelin tires. The grey and yellow interior was redone as well before purchase by the current owner, and seats five occupants. There are additional gauges which function, air conditioning and a modern Pioneer head unit for your tunes. A four spoke Grant steering wheel, metal gear selector knob and metal pedal caps complete the package.
The Willys Jeep Wagon of the forties and fifties came with a range of four and six cylinder engines, but this 1951 Willys Jeep Wagon 350ci has seen an engine transplant at some point in its life. This engine is a GM Goodwrench 350ci (5.7L) crate V8, with electronic fuel injection and a Flowmaster exhaust, as well as an aluminum radiator for optimal cooling. Power figures for the stock GM Goodwrench are stated as approximately 250hp. The engine drives the rear wheels through an automatic transmission. The vehicle has also received new rear axle bearings, new brakes, new master cylinder and new shocks all round.

We all know the story of the Willys Jeep, conceived by Willys-Overland for civilian use when World War II was ending. The company knew that they needed a product that would replace the soon drying up military order book, and they developed the CJ or Civilian Jeep. The CJ ran until 1986, when it became…surprise, surprise, the Wrangler. There have been many variants made during that time, and some have been turned into restomods. Case in point, this 1958 Willys Jeep Station Sedan from Ormond Beach, Florida. With its 350ci V8, Blue Patina exterior with surface rust accents and hardwood cargo floor, this is one heck of a machine, let us tell you. It’s rear-wheel drive and has got just over 31,000 miles to its name.
The modern day SUV is the swiss army knife of the automotive industry, in that it has many uses. While your could argue that the picture of an SUV taking to the great outdoors in style slowly fades away, what is present today is your ticket to experience what a true offroader should look and feel like. It takes shape with this lovely 1952 Willys Wagon.

The Willys Jeepster was originally designed to bridge the gap between utilitarian Jeeps and comfortable passenger cars, offering open-air driving with rugged charm. This 1949 example, offered from Nevada, Missouri, has been transformed into a restomod that blends vintage Jeepster character with modern muscle. With a 6.2L LS3 V8 under the hood, automatic transmission, and just 265 miles since completion, it delivers classic looks with contemporary power and usability
Introduced in 1944, the Jeep CJ ran through several iterations until 1986, when it became the popular Jeep Wrangler. Now that’s why this vehicle bears several familiar cues, not just to the Wrangler but the Jeep family as a whole. After all, it’s the first of a legacy, the first civilian Jeep, which is why its called a CJ. Born out of Willys-Overland’s need to create something for the civilian market after World War 2 ended, the Jeep CJ would see well in excess of 1.5 million examples produced. The brief for the CJ was, surprisingly, tougher than that of the military Jeep it was based on. After all, military Jeeps tend to have lifespans of months or in tough areas, weeks. Meanwhile, the Jeep CJ would be put to the test by hard-working American farmers, blue-collar workers and small business owners, and expected to last for years with minimal maintenance. That’s why you’ll find many Jeep CJ examples existing to this day, as a testament to how well Willys built them. This 1954 Willys Jeep CJ-3B from from Naches is one such machine, and it’s received a fine restoration to bring it up to the condition we see today. This machine could be yours if you wish.
