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 .
This probably has an f-head.

“This is an original ad measuring approx 8″ x 11″ and is in excellent condition.”

“Runs amazing one of a kind here in America made in Brazil Ford Rural ”

“1950 Jeep Willy truck runs great, new tires, fuel tank, fuel filter, and spark plugs. Ready to go serious buyers only”
This customized Jeepster has a different look to it.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/625820869323113
“Completely customized 1950 Willy’s Jeepster. Chevy 350 with throttle body fuel injection. 5 speed manual transmission. Removable top.”
Listed as a 1950, the serial number plate puts this as a 1952.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/552855470013159
“Project vehicle, does not run $1500 OBO Had it as a project but don’t have to time or money to work on it No title only bill of sale Unsure of exact age, previous owners say it is a 1950”
This might have an APU hood, but hard to tell for sure. Only the one pic provided.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1188774441743636
“V8 motor.brand new tires never driven on. New flare fins over tires.brakes all done..seat cushions to put on runs good..paddle tires also”
Listed as a 1960, this has the fenders and grille of a 1952 or early 1953. It also appears to have a USMC rear bumper. There appears to be parts value here at the very least.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/821717025710782
“~1960’s Military Jeep. M38A1. Good drive train. 6 cylinder engine – probably froze. No time- too many projects. No title- Bill of sale only. Selling for my friend. Boy if I had the know how to restore this bad boy I’d be all over it! $1100 obo”
Seller has listed this as a CJ36. This has a replacement body kit.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/708174490145000/
“Dana 44s in the back Dana Dana 27 in the front. Buick. Dauntless engine less than 20,000 miles. V-6 CJ36”
While this looks solid, it does not have the correct fenders or hinged grille that a 1952 ought to have.

“nice original shape runs and drives well”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $25,450.
(05/21/2021) It looks like lots of time and money was put into this.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/686962996046860

“Does not run, driveline went out several years ago and has been parked since then. Clean title. If this listing is up it is still available, I will remove it when sold.”
Mike shared this rare right-hand-drive wagon. Maybe it is an ex-USPS wagon?
https://willysforsale.com/ads/1958-willys-wagon-rhd/
“1958 Willys Wagon, Rare right hand drive. 6-226 runs. Have rear driver’s side repair panel.”
This is the first I’ve seen of these Kaiser Willys Sales Promotor bulletins, though it is unclear how many bulletins are provided. The ebay ad includes pics of the cover, a foreword, and issues number 1 and number 3. I’ve added additional ones found on the web at the bottom. I don’t think there is a whole lot of jeep info (seems more car oriented), but still interesting.
Apparently, these KW Sales promoters is a carry over from Kaiser Frazier, which also had a similar program. A CD of the KF promoters can be found here: http://circlekf.com/KFNut/forsale/sp.html

Tom spotted this low-mileage CJ-5 located pretty close to Roger Martin. Does the transmission tunnel look customized on this?
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/661059762193803
“1969 Jeep CJ5 with 8000 original miles. Was used as farm implement. No issues. I do have the title”
This runs and drives. It should go quickly.

“Running driving 1950 have it licensed it’s a fun driver $3600 It does have steel top good windows and doors”
