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: **SOLD** Was $1200.
Wayne spotted this unusual frankenjeep.
“1940’s Willys jeep truck not exactly sure what year it is,would be a good restoration project, 6 cylinder flat head engine In it wouldn’t take much to get the engine running, just body and interior work”
What we have here is a frankenjeep. This has a DJ-3A body with tailgate, a CJ-2A windshield, a drivetrain with what appears to be a rear PTO, and what appears to be some CJV-35U Bezels.
“Willys Jeep, ready to go, why by a UTV when you could have a JEEP! come take a look $2000 or best offer 785 448 5381”

UPDATE: **SOLD** was $1000
“1948 WILLYS JEEP CJ2A: All original. Flathead 4 cylinder go devil engine. Original T90 transmission and original T18 transfer case. This Jeep does run, drive and stop however it needs total restoration.
The floors need redone. The previous owner did a bad repair job. There is some rust here and there as well. It has been converted to 12v. I have had this jeep for several years and it has been my primary off road toy. I just recently got a different jeep so I no longer need this one. I used this one for some parts for my new one. This one is still complete and can be made road worthy with little work. Right now the gas tank is not hooked up and it will need either the generator hooked up or a alternator installed. I can start and run it for the buyer off of a gas can. It has always ran well and has never left me stranded. This Jeep can be used for parts or with very little work can be made road worthy again. I drove it into my shop last weekend to remove the parts I wanted for my other one so it has not been sitting for very long. I do have a clean and clear title in my name. I have a bunch of Willys parts that I will not be needing so if the buyer wants some I may throw some in with the purchase of this Jeep. Basically cleaning up the garage a little! I will not part out this jeep only selling complete. $1000.00 cash FIRM! No I will not take a penny less. Not selling it because I need the money just don’t need two Jeeps around anymore. If i can’t give it away at $1000 it can sit in my shop and i will use it for parts. ”
This looks good.
“1947 Willys Jeep, restored, new engine, red with new black top, new interior.(304)645-5064”
http://blacksburg.craigslist.org/cto/2780383591.html
It looks solid and nearly original.
“Very solid ole’ Willys Jeep made in 1947, was redone a little over 5 years ago, garage kept, rust free. The Engine and transmission all work great, although the transmission does leak a little, it needs a new seal, the clutch is working very well. Brakes are spongy and could use a little work, prolly adding brake fluid would do the trick. Runs down the road smooth and is road legal, I have a clear title for this jeep as well. The jeep has 16″ NDT military tires, and the roll bar is bolted on, so if you do not want that you can get rid of it by unbolting it. I have the original rods and a bikini top for it, or I have a aftermarket snap on cover that can be used as well, all included with the jeep. If you have any questions just email me plus I have more pics of the jeep if you need them.”

This has a variety of updates.
“1945 willys jeep on a 1973 cj chassis with a chevy 4.3 v-6 with outside frame rail headers, it also has a DANA 44 rear end and new aluminum radiator. I currently has a 700r4 transmission and is two wheel drive. I used it primarily around town and to the beach, I have a t-18 with dana 20 transfer case to convert back to 4 wheel drive. It has been a fun to have around but time to move on to something different.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
The SN plate seems to be missing the last number, with a line over where the last number should be. I would guess this is really a 98xxx serial number. The seller also notes that the “Jeep is in great condition”. Really? Interestingly, this has full floating rear hubs, too.
