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 .
Looks like a project.
“52 Willys has a Marine Corps vin. Put new head gaskets, freeze plugs and valve cover gasket. Passenger side head is cracked. Has a 78 Buick Skyhawk engine. I just don’t have the time to fix it right now and need the money and it gone.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
No photos of the entire jeep.
“This listing is for a 1953 Willys Jeep high hood CJ3-B. It needs major restoration or could be used for parts. The body is very rusty and in very poor condition. The frame has surface rust, but appears solid with no cracks or rust-thru. The vehicle will roll for loading. The 4WD drivetrain is complete. The Jeep was parked many years ago by previous owner because the clutch was slipping.”
This photo appeared in the February 1956 issue of Globetrotter. The jeeps were purchased by Manila’s Labor Law Commission.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
This one has some interesting history.
“1943 Jeep with custom cab and 6′ plow. Starts and runs good. Needs brake job. No title, no plates. Cab and body parts were fabricated by German POWs in the Rhine Valley. This vehicle originally carried a generator during WWII that followed the General around – it wasn’t Ike.”
UPDATE: Was $4900. **Status Unknown**
Appears worth a look.
“1947 Willyz CJ-2A, Jeep runs and drives. You can drive it home. Body mounts and floors are solid. It leaks a little oil (Most do) Had the original motor and trans, Back seat and set up to run on 12volts The chasie was restored a few years ago so it is solid underneath. This is not a rusted out old jeep it is a good solid runner. But it is not a show quality jeep.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3495.
Looks like a good price. No description provided.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
Could be a good price.

http://akroncanton.craigslist.org/cto/5744785935.html
Looks like a good price. Includes an overdrive.
“For sale: 1955 M38A1 Jeep. I started on this jeep with plans for a full restoration but found a flat fender that has pulled my attention and resources away so this one needs to find a new home. The Jeep has been converted to 12v and comes equipped with new locking hubs and has a vintage warn overdrive installed. It and runs and drives well with many new parts already installed including;
-Front and rear seat canvas and cushions
-Canvas top
-Steering Wheel
-Wheel cylinders, master cylinder, and brake shoes
-Soft brake lines
-Rebuilt original fuel/vacuum pump
-Rebuilt original carburetor
-Outer wheel seals
-All pinion and output seals
-NDCC tires and tubes
This machine has it’s share of dings and dents and would make a great trail/parade vehicle as it sits but I’m also including two more parts jeeps and several crates of parts to help facilitate a complete restoration if desired. I’m hoping to get out of M series jeeps so buyer will get everything I have for one price. There are enough parts included to finish the jeep and probably have a really good table at the swap meet for the next couple of years. I’m looking to get $6500 or best offer for the whole package. I have a clear title for the jeep and it’s currently registered with a vintage plate in Washington State. ”

“1947 willys jeep 4 wheel drive. Will be a great hunting vehicle once restoration is done.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.
It’s a project.
“I bought a ’55 Ford, so the Jeep has to go.
It is a Project, and I can only afford one at a time:
The engine won’t turn over, so I have been removing it (3 bolts left to remove). Portland Engine Rebuilders will rebuild it for around $1700. Everything is there except tail lights and a battery. The tires are 10 years old and came off my Ranger. It has a clean Washington title, but has not been licensed since 1987. It spent most of its life as an orchard Jeep in Washington. It has been in a shed in River Road area since 1993. I paid $1000 for it, so I know it’s worth that. Don’t bother me if you aren’t willing to pay that much. ”
UPDATE: Still Available
(02/16/2014) This needs work.
“I have for sale two Willys Jeeps, they were running and driving a couple of years ago, I have not tried to start them or mess with them in a couple of years, 4×4 worked at that time as well did brakes and transmission shifted. These are project jeeps, tubs are in pretty bad shape, motors are in great shape. If you have any questions feel free to text or call. Asking $4000 for the pair or $2500 each. No Low Ballers and I do not need help selling these.“

I found this matchbook cover on eBay.
Has some updates. Could be a good price.
“1942 Ford GPW. This is a fun rig. Has a 1974 pinto 2.3l engine and original 3 speed transmission. Upgraded drum brakes. Dual reservoir master cylinder from Herm the overdrive guy. 33 inch mud tires. Comes with full top and doors.
This isn’t a pristine vehicle. It’s 74 years old. This is a fun off road, hunting and cruising rig. Starts reliably every time. ”
http://portland.craigslist.org/clk/cto/5746687000.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.
Needs some brake work. Check out the swinging tail gate. The brake lights have been wired into it, saving the body from being cut. It’s a clever setup.
“This fun, little beauty has a Buick V6 motor, it runs great. It will need brakes and a rock strike has broken the windshield. It has lots of other extras, too many to list. It is a lot of fun to run around in. The wife says that we don’t really need two Jeeps. (Wife is the one posting this!!)”
Nice looking truck with a couple mods (such as the front bumper).
“62 Willys Pickup, Ford 289 engine, with warren overdrive. Nice, had since new, can”t take all the Grandkids. Looks Nice, Runs Great”
