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.
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.
There are plenty of interesting, unusual, historic and surprising stories related to Jeeps and their owners. In addition, some of these features have nothing to do with jeeps. This link will display all featured stories starting from the latest.
Looking for parts and not sure where to go? There are a variety of large and small new and used parts sellers both online and offline.
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 .
UPDATE: Still Available.

“1948 Willys Jeep, V8, ran when parked in November 2019. Believe it is a 50’s era 265 v8. It has rust and has been sitting for 4 plus years. Old man had aspirations to restore and rebuild, time has passed with nothing done. Needs work, cool rig.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $3000.

“I have a 1946 Willy’s flat fender with a dauntless V6, 3 speed transmission split shift transfer case.. tires r good, runs great. I’ve driven it from Delhi to calaveras co and back with no problems. It does need paint and has some rust, I started patching rust already in the main spots but the salt from the Idaho roads really took a toll on the body. But it’s still a cool jeep. Nothing a little paint can’t cover up 😂. Also needs seats, I have a back seat but need front seats.. also have a hard top for it.. I hate to sell it but things got bad for me real quick and need the money.. I’m asking $4000- and probably won’t go down from that price. May be open to trade. Lmk. What u have. Please no junk. I want Something running. Jeep is registered as well”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8500.
(12/12/2023) This has a variety of updates. Note the unusual u-bolt plates on the back of this build. My guess is that this is any upside down ‘box’ design to protect then u-bolt nuts from being damaged on trails.

“Willys 1951 CJ-3A. Frame and tub are in pretty good shape. Needs motor. There is a block with crank and pistons. Rolls and steers easily. If you are looking to restore this model or make it an army jeep this is a pretty good platform to start with. Body panels are in good shape and the tub floor needs some work but is fairly solid. Frame underneath looks okay.
Originally I was going to make a clone WWII jeep by replacing the CJ tub with an MB tub. Long story short, my supreme commander gave me a deadline to start the project. That deadline has passed and I don’t have the time to start so I would like to pass it on to someone else before the snow flies. CJ sat indoors for many years until about two years ago. Stays covered since. No title. I paid $2500 for the CJ and I’m open to hearing serious offers and making a deal but would like to get a decent chunk of what I paid back. So please keep that in mind as you make an offer.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $4500.
(12/02/2023) The rear bed is surprisingly rough. This includes a Koenig half cab.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1048191789701342
“Runs and drives and stops Tires are old.. But but hold air fine and are correct size 16″. I have a set of new ndt tires for an extra 500. I wont throw them in free sorry. Just paid 500 for em. But shes a runner and a driver. Firm on price. I have a half hardtop and doors for it too. Last picture. Trades considered.”
Update: sold. Was $7000.
Looks like a good price.
“All tags are present. Frame tags matches under hood tag matching data plate tags. Solid vehicle and good driver. Did the 4 wheel disc conversion from Brennan’s. Rebuilt the steering box. Replaced bent axle. New tires. New wiring under hood. All lights work including the high beam indicator. I have jumped in and gone for 40 mile drives with no overheating issues. $7000.00”
This includes a rear PTO gearbox setup, along with a front weight and winch(?). I am wondering if it has a 3 point lift in the back, as there are some arms sticking up from he back. No good pics of the rear cargo area. Unclear how much value is in the jeep itself.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/334812162761099
“Engine is stuck and frame is bad. Hard to find pto assembly is worth the asking price. $1800 or make an offer. Located in Ute Iowa. Will be parting soon if not sold complete.”
Ran when parked. The half cab looks to be Koenig.

“47 Willy’s jeep! Bought years ago and had plans for it with my dad but he’s no longer here and now have a baby and just need to downsize my collection! It ran when we parked it but had to jump start it. Because the ignition wiring is gone, but to put it back in is easy and simple. Priced below what they sell for on the national average.”
UPDATE: Still Available. The description below is from the previous ad. The new ad does not contain a description.
(04/25/2022) Listed as a 1949, this has a CJ-2A body. The engine needs to be rebuilt or replaced.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1484961578938822
“1949 Willys Jeep: I’ve been working on this for about a year. Recently found out that engine needs to be rebuilt or need to swap in a newer/used engine. I took the body off, scraped, sanding, acid etched primed, then sprayed with a fine finish tip and put on a raptor liner coating. Black raptor liner to the underside and the inside of the tub. Sandblasted the rims, grill, bumpers, light housings and powder coated with matte black finishes. New gauges, new steering wheel, new reproduction seats with new vinyl. New tires. New. shocks. New muffler, exhaust system. It’s been fun but I’m not wanting to dump another $2,000-$3,000 for the engine upgrade.”
