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 .
It’s was our 5th anniversary last night, so I enjoyed some drinks and will spend the evening with Ann. I’ll update everyone on the trip Sunday morning.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1900.
Look like it may have a rear PTO:
Fair condition, Runs. Need battery for the flathead 4cyl. Rear PTO Shaft. Bike rack. Have new seats.
1900.00″
I’ve been sick since Saturday night, alternating between chills and fevers. Hopefully I will feel better this morning!!
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
Doesn’t run. Rarely see these as projects.
“I have a 1959 Willys M274 Army mule for sale, currently is not running but was rebuilt and running in the early 2000s.
it can run just needs some TLC.”
No pics nor any description.
“Having a huge garage sale 40 tables packed full plus more lots of tools designer purses and clothing jewelry collectibles comic books CDs DVDs VHS vinyl records camping three boats a bronco a Toyota Celica quad ATV four wheeler Willys Jeep housewares large house speakers MTX car audio speakers amps outdoor tools bicycles golfing tennis games hair products RC cars and lots more”
Has the bobcat hood among other updates.
“This is my 1947 Willys with a 1968 chevy 327-cid engine supposedly out of a 1968 corvette. I am the third owner of the car after the swap which was done by an older man who wanted to get rid of it because it was to fast. It is has a manual choke and there is no key required to run and drive the vehicle. It runs and drives as it sits but as you can hear and see in the video it needs a tune up the passenger side is running rich and sounds like the timing may need to get adjusted. As you can see the body is in rough shape the driver side windshield is broken and the windshield doesnt fold down because the previous owner caulked it. According to the previous owner the engine and transmission where rebuilt but I do not have paperwork to prove it so it was just word of mouth. I love this car it is super fast and fun but don’t have time or space. So 4500 obo open to all offers TEXT with questions would highly recommend trailering it.”

Seller notes there are only five of these trailers in the US. (Jeep not for sale)
“selling my wwii British airborne trailer(Number 1 Mark II Lightweight 10-cwt Airborne Trailer). I can deliver for extra fee, I am within 3hr to Newark NJ docks for overseas shipping.
There are only five, yes 5 of these trailers in the USA(I know all the other owners)
Trades will be considered, firearms preferred. Was restored about 4-5yrs ago, some very minor holes, I didn’t want to re skin the entire trailer taking away from its originality. Brakes not assembled due to the fact that they had a tendency to actuate while in transit, with a possibility of locking up and possibly creating a accident situation.
A great trailer to complete their british airborne impression.
**Jeep in photos NOT INCLUDED OR FOR SALE!**”
No Updates Today.
A potential buyer was looking for some feedback on this one. I’ve sent them mine. My biggest issue was those front frame rails. they’ve been extensively patched.
“Here is a nice Jeep from World War 2. GPW engine, T90 transmission, with original front/rear axles. Nice straight body, but to be honest, unsure if original or reproduction?? All the holes on the tub have been welded up, which reproductions come un-drilled if I am correct?? Has 5 combats with new tires, tubes, and flaps. REAL NICE Jeep for the money. DoIRM, so don’t offer me anything less, as the answer is NO. Thanks and Hope you all have a Happy New Year. Have a M100 trailer for additional money if interested??
I will throw in the side/corner handles, the bumperettes, the gas carrier, spare tire carrier with spare and tire,”

Thanks to Colin for taking these photos of these jeeps at the 2017 Barrett Jackson auction.

The 50 Jeepster is a nice car with an older restoration, F-4 cylinder without overdrive.
1953 Kaiser Willys Aero:
The Willys Aero is a 53 with F-head 6 and overdrive. This sold for $13,500.
UPDATE: Still Available.
(01/01/2017) It’s an ex Navy jeep with a data plate. The plate looks awfully new, so it might be a replacement? I’m just not a fan of the M-151 rims on jeeps.
“Selling restored Jeep CJ3B painted to look like a Navy Jeep
It has new brakes, master cyl. rebuilt, 5 new wheels and Non-directional tires, both differentials rebuilt, trans. rebuilt, engine checked for compression, new rebuilt distributor and new steering wheel.
The Jeep has a NEW body, (never been wet!) and new aftermarket wiring harness. The lettering is vinyl, will come off if you desire.
Driven only in parades since restoration, selling for health reasons. Runs and drives great!
The odometer does not read correct mileage, non-functional when I purchased the Jeep.”

A couple years ago I set up a twitter account, only to find out that someone named eWilly Santos. She acquired the eWillys twitter name before I did. So, I named it something slightly different.
Yesterday, I got back on to see if she still was using her account. She doesn’t, but hasn’t deleted it yet (I’ve sent her a tweet asking if I can use it). However, I also realized that folks were trying to give the site credit using @eWillys, but not knowing I didn’t have access to that account. So, I updated the name to @RealeWillys for the time being.
So, if you want to give eWillys credit on twitter, use the handle @RealeWillys
Thanks!
Ann and I had a movie marathon last night, so no updates until Sunday.
Ted’s still got these parts for sale.
