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 .
With some paint and polish (and a different front bumper), this might look pretty nice.

This looks well done.
“454 B Big Block. Automatic, Mustang Front End, Ford 9″ Rear End , Flaming River Steering Column”

(04/30/2012) This has an old jalopy look to it.
“I’m selling my 1949 willys truck. It’s had a lot of custom mods done to it. The front axle was pushed out 14″. The front rails were narrowed and shortened. The underside of the frt cross member had ladies painted on a long time ago. I got the frame with them on there, original rad shell, alum rad with elec. cooling fan. The engine is an older sbc 327. th350n trans, lokar long shifter, alum drive shaft, ford 9″ rear axle, 3.70 open gears, drum brakes, power brake booster, flaming river steering gear, cross steer, rear rails shortened and notched, competition engineering ladder bars, QA1 coil-overs, No heater or door windows.
Speedway tube frt axle
Front disc brakes
Dome was cut off the roof and flat topped
Roof chopped 4 1/4 inches
Bed shortened 3 ft
Needless to say its had a lot done to it.”
This might make an interesting project. Someone started stealing parts, so the seller wants this to go to a deserving jeep enthusiast.
“Vintage Willys truck (old San Diego Convair Airplane assembly plant fire truck) bought to restore but illness in family prevents continuing so would like best offer. Have trailor to go with it. Sold as is you haul. Drove up some time ago but now some slime balls have started helping themselves and stealing parts and I would like to have jeep enthusiast or someone passionate about old jeeps continue my dream to restore to factory spec. Will negotiate, I need Lake Arrowhead cabin landscaped cleaned and exterior house painted to make attractive to sell. Great home mechanic project.”

This looks good, but still needs some work according to the seller.
“Early 1951 Willys Pick Up with a small block Chevy and a T-90 with overdrive all original running gear. Dana front axle and Timkin rear diff. New custom built gas tank. It’s your turn to have fun with this truck. I have had my fun and it is your turn to make it yours. I have completely painted the frame and body. I also replaced some small things here and there. It is a very fun vehicle and gets alot of looks. Current on registration and road worthy. It needs your love and attention to finish. This all steel body truck needs a some love and attention with a few things like the wipers do not work and needs center buttons for door handles, carpet and headliner. I have put in the power steering upgrade so mark that off you list. I do have a very hard to find Willys Overland tailgate that I have been rebuilding and spare tire holder that have not been painted yet. As a bonus I have a T-18 four speed transmission for and upgrade at an additional cost. If interested I can take more pictures. I am not interested in trades or partial cash with payments”

“1955 Willys pickup. Factory color Transport yellow. older restoration. has been sitting in garage for several years. Will need some attention but could be a dependable neat old truck. 6500.00 OBRO
If interested please call or text 7five7-six9six-21eight9
I am reposting this to add additional information so as not to waste my time or yours. Ive owned the truck for the last 12 years or so. This truck is the finished product of a compilation of aquired parts (new and used) and assembled together using the best of what was found. It is titled as a 1955 as that was the original truck that I started with. The bed and rear fenders are reproductions from Willys America. The cab is from a 61 truck. The engine is an original super hurricaine flat head 6 that was rebuilt to stock. There is a two barrel carb and intake on it which I believe to be a rare option for this truck as most that you see are the single barrel carbs. During assembling the frame was wire brushed epoxy primed and painted black. Floor pans in the cab were patched and the floor was sprayed at Line X in Yorktown. Line X also sprayed the interior of the bed, the insides of the rear fenders, and the underside of the bed prior to its installation. The truck was painted Transport yellow which was a factory color option. the truck was put back close to original but taking a few liberties as to personal preference. The seat is not stock and is out of an s10 pickup. This truck has not been registered in the last five years or so. It will not leave my house as a driver. In order for it to be road worthy it will need to have the carb rebuilt. (gas is rough when these vehicles sit up for a while). The brakes will need to be bled off. ( again a product of sitting in my garage) and one tire will need to be pumped up, or have a tube put in. Even though it has been off the road I still try a couple times a year to start the old girl up move it around in the driveway just to keep everything lubed up. The last time was this past summer. when these pics were taken. Please understand that this is not a show truck. The cab is not falwless and im sure that you will find many imperfections in the fit and finish of this truck. That said it is a neat old piece and if the above mentioned items were addressed it would be a neat driver. If after reading this your still interested feel free to give me a call. ”
UPDATE: This sold. Was priced at $5000.
This looks in fine shape.
” All wheel drive, body in good shape.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was KR45000.
Here’s a 1957 fire truck from Norway that is still in great shape. This jeep is located in the far north of Norway.
Here’s the Norwegian ad (click here to translate):

This runs. I love the shifting pattern drawn on the ‘dash’.
“Hi – what I have is a CONTRAPTION that used to be a 48 Willys Pickup – it is not roadable – however it is a good PLOW/UTILITY vehicle for personal or neighborhood use …
I removed the cab from the pickup – and made a roof – it still has the original jeep front end , fenders and hood … It has a make-shift flatbed … a roll bar , etc …
The truck has a usable frame/chassis – it would be a cool project frame to put under an El Camino 4X4 project , etc … currently it has a good running (original) 4 cylinder engine … 3 speed manual trans … 4X4 in good shape – old tires have plenty of tread – never got it stuck , but they are severally dry rotted … has a good radiator …. – converted to GM 12V system …
Has a hydraulic pump operated plow … that works good – fixed position – just up or down …
Havent started it for awhile – battery probably shot …. points may need to be cleaned …. but when these things are attended to , starts and runs very good …
I want to sell the whole thing as is … but I will remove the plow if you just want the truck – the truck will be 600.00 and I’ll charge the same for the plow if I have to seperate … better deal if you just but the whole contraption as is … I did have to gusset the frame where it was rusty on one side , but did a good job …”
This is a nicely expanded truck cab.
