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 $8500.
(06/22/2016) Includes a trailer.
“1952, M38A1 military jeep and trailer RESTORED. Many additional parts for you to install.
All new canvas except doors.
You also get military trailer restored with new canvas Engine rebuilt and new clutch”
Motor is stuck. Seller is also selling the trailer for $400.
“Motor is stuck from sitting. Transmission and transfer case are not stuck. Body is solid but has lots of patches and some bondo.
This would be a good project with a motor swap. Sold with bill of sale only but can register and convey with current registration at buyer’s expense (Generally less than $100 including the insurance required to do so).”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $850.
Rodney’s selling this trailer. Looks like it has potential.
“Selling a civilian Bantam T3-C trailer. The trailer is usable as-is or can be restored close to original. The paint has peeled and trailer has lots of surface rust. Some heavily rusted areas might need patching. Overall, the floor is solid. It has the 1-7/8 Fulton coupler and the original front leg support. Chains are all there but could use de-rusting. I had to have new tires installed on the trailer in order to pull it home. Tires have less than 70 miles on them. Tail light wiring are there but I have not tested them. The tail lights seem to have been replaced by the previous owner. The rest of the trailer seem to be original. The trailer has the pockets for the bows.
Data plate is gone. Don’t know what year it is but looks like a later model. No title or registration. Will be sold with a Bill of Sale. Original California license plate is still attached. I’m not sure what needs to be done to get the trailer titled and registered. Perhaps the license plate can help track the original records.”
Tim spotted this one.
“Needs light and some work call”

“For sale. Steel body single axle utility trailer. Trailer has 15″ tires. Steel bottom and steel stake sides. Fold down tail gate and steel stake back frame. Paint has seen better days and there is some rust. First $300 takes it.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(10/14/2015) It has updated engine and brakes.
“Great 4 wheel drive 1946 Willys Jeep! Has a V-8 engine (from a 1960s Chevy van I think) and power steering. It is a 3-speed, plus a low range and an overdrive, so you’ll have lots of gear choices! It has been a wonderful family fun vehicle for years, but we now rarely use it since our kids are older. It has brand new tires, and it is in good mechanical condition. Floorboards are solid.
Includes a dual axle trailer for towing the Jeep, with trailer brakes (I’ve never used the trailer brakes, so I cannot vouch for them).”
http://lansing.craigslist.org/cto/5616015555.html
UPDATE: Was $500. **SOLD**
The good news is that the trailer isn’t a rust bucket and can be used as is. However, a tree dropped on one side damaging it.
“For Sale – 1946 Civilian Bantam Utility Trailer. Needs some TLC but still works well. Side bent from fallen tree. More pictures available.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(05/05/2016) The trailer is cool.
“2nd year of these post war vehicles. I’m 3rd owner and 1st owner outside the original family who bought it new. This is a 2WD model with the Planar front suspension. All seats including the 7th “mother-in-law” seat back by the spare tire. Interior and glass disassembled, bagged and labeled for sandblasting. Pictures show some before and after shots. I have over $1000 in new parts (patch panels, etc.). Also have a matching trailer made from a Panel version of these vehicles.”
http://houston.craigslist.org/cto/5621066186.html
Seems a good price.
“For sale- Vintage 1946 Sears and Roebuck 233-46 utility trailer. I believe these were made by the Ben Hur company and sold thru Sears under the David Bradley name. These trailers were designed for, but not limited to, use with Civilian Jeeps. (CJ2 CJ3 CJ3A) Amazingly, this one still has it’s original hitch and data tag, but no fenders. ”

Josh has this trailer for sale.
“The trailer is in unrestored condition and very complete. The outside has original OD and markings and someone has resprayed the inside. (I do think you could take the new paint off the inside with a little work) The trailer does have the original data plate, combats, landing leg, lights, and chains. The floor is very solid and the trailer has almost no considerable rust (just a little where the bottom L frame support meets the front panel). It is a bit tweaked and does have some considerable dents particularly up on the top of the front panel but is overall very solid and uniquely presentable.”

Glenn spotted this trailer. Maybe it is a Converto Civilian Trailer?
“Post WWII jeep trailer. Similar to Bantam TC-3 (BT3-C) type trailer, but can’t confirm make/model. In excellent condition; has been garage kept throughout its lifetime. Body is solid and ready to haul (shows only very minor surface rust).
New tires purchased and bearings were re-packed to transport trailer from Chicago to Burnsville. Temporary wiring/lights installed, but likely needs work to be functional. Will need little work to get back on the road.
Call to make an appointment to come see. Would like to see someone looking for a nice jeep trailer to put this to good use!!
NOTE: estimated to be around 1945 model year; BT3-C is indicated as make/model as trailer is similar. No title for trailer exists.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
