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: Still Available.

“Helping my uncle sell his vehicles, he has two late 50s jeep FC 150s. These are being sold as a pair for $3,500 obo”
On Sunday, I was able to tack together the basic structure of the rear portion of the cage. On Monday, I began work on the front portion.
Here’s a look a the back portion with the body sitting on the frame:
There are still a number of small things to do to complete the rear portion (such as adding rear shock mounts, adding some corner supports, and, of course, welding all the connection points).
To properly calculate the two long side bars, which will run from the mid part of the frame back to the rear loop, I needed the body to be sitting on the frame.
Each side bar has four bends, so getting them both the same is a good challenge.
After LOTS of measurements, angle considerations, and design thoughts, I finally got around to bending the two most difficult angles on the side bar. Below you can see the passenger side bar temporarily in position, though the lower two bends haven’t been finished yet (next bend will direct the bar vertically at the dash, then the final bend will redirect the bar forward under the dash where it will attach to a still-to-be-added cross bar.
Unfortunately, I didn’t get as far as I’d hoped, because Ann had a bad migraine, so I had to take the dogs to the groomers (which they needed pretty badly, as bad weather forced us to cancel two previous appts over the past two months).
I expect that by Friday I’ll have all the bars bent, positioned, and maybe even welded.
UPDATE: Still Available.
(08/13/2022) This 3B looks in good shape.

“1954 Willys Jeep CJ3B
Original hurricane 4 engine, 3 Speed Transmission with warn overdrive, PTO winch, manual hubs front and rear for easy towing, runs great.
Needs clutch linkage re- attached, front differential needs rebuilt- empty removed broken locker.. have the stock gear set or you can put in a new locker.
Former show winner, could be again with very little work. This jeep will go anywhere.
Lifted with 34″ Super Swampers-Siped
Also comes with soft top.”
This top portion of this top is a Porter & Reed hardtop. It appears the sides and back were removed and replaced by canvas (or remnants from a soft top).

“1965 jeep cj5. Lots of time and money into this jeep. 350 has been professionally built and is close to 600hp. Ross pistons, dart angle port heads, 3500 stall. new msd, new radiator, new paint and wrap. Inside has been bedlined to match. Recently bought scout dana 44 axle for this with disk brakes.

UPDATE: G. Binks had a question about this hubcap from a Tux Park IV. So, I will post the photo here:
===================
This could be worth a look. Note the full set of hubcaps.

“Suzuki LJ20V, low miles, runs and drives. Super rare, complete. 2 cylinder 2 stroke engine!”
Given the three dataplates on the dash, this may be a ’46.

“I have two of these trucks. One is a 1958 and the other a 1961. They both need total restoration. They are well optioned with long wheelbases (9ft beds), running boards, hurricane engine etc. The 1958 was a Forrest Service vehicle, original paint color was ‘Safety Green’. 1961 was intended to be a parts vehicle but they both can be restored. Clean title in hand. Emblems and black on yellow plates are in hand as well. There are many parts that go with these Jeeps. Take a look at the pics and let me know if this something you’d like to know more about.”
Needs work.

Looks like quite a bit of work has been completed.

“I’m the third owner of this Willys. Solid body, rust free frame has been cleaned and painted, good seats, all new brake system, engine rebuilt with 140 miles. I have all the parts including two sets of wheels and a soft top, frame and doors. I will not sell parts.”

“1952 M38, rebuildable MC marked engine, transmission and transfer box. It has some Cj3a parts. Rear seat, no front seats.”
A rebuild of this would be a good idea at this point, so factor that into the cost.

“29 tooth 6 spline warn overdrive model 33v6. I do not know if it is complete. This is exactly how I got it. I was going to send it to Herm in Washington for a rebuild. I have pictures of all the parts I have. Some may not even be for it ? All gears seem to be in decent shape, some surface rust and oxidization on housing inside. I needed a 26 tooth, so this one won’t work for me. I’m willing to ship, however due to weight it’s going to be about 45-50 bucks. Text is best”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7000.
(09/28/2022) Looks like it’s been upgraded to an f-head. No description provided, other than a p#.
TJ shared this wagon. There has to be $800 worth of value here?

This 12-page Jeep News issue was a harder one for me to find. It includes a couple advertising inserts as well.
UPDATE: Status unknown. Was $5500. Link was no longer active on the FB group.
This CJ-3B doesn’t have the single gauge, so it is likely earlier than a 1957.
“Looking to see what it’s worth 1957 willys ? It was running 2yrs ago when parked by relative that has passed. Located in oregon…”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800.
It’s a project or parts.
“1942 Ford Jeep with tags. Nothing under the hood. Has axel assemblies & suspension. No title but bill of sale. We can load on flat bed with sky track. Pick up near Chandler Oklahoma.”
Unclear how much value is here. It has a variety of updates.
