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 .
Gayland recently visited Red River, New Mexico. On the way he stopped by Russell’s Travel Stop along I-40 on the New Mexico/Texas border. Inside the travel stop is a CJ-2A. Bob stopped by there in 2013. Gayland shared a few of his pics.
When he got to Red River, New Mexico, he spotted multiple jeeps, including this CJ-3B with a unique top.
Burl discovered that Titan Tires still carry Goodyear 4ply Terra Tires. http://www.titanstore.com/info/XTR396
Burl writes, The tires are actually made by Titan Tire; Titan bought the molds from Goodyear. Most listings will only list the 8 ply but there are 28 of the 4 ply tires available if none have sold since I purchased mine.
The fellow to contact is Terry Nagel. He is the factory rep for Goodyear. When I inquired about these in the beginning he checked inventory on the 4 ply and he found 31 each of the 4 ply in, I think he said Cleveland but I could be mistaken on that issue, and are available.
That’s a happy hunter.

“Two Willys MB Jeeps for sale one is a 1942 the other 1945, Titles for both jeeps, first jeep has a F head 134 motor in it backed by a t-84 three speed transmission and a 18 transfer case. It has had the front floors replaced a one point but could use new one again. Windshield frame is very straight and minimal rust. It is a early 1942 sense it does have the willys stamped on the Left rear of the tub. 16 inch steel wheels. Solid fenders. Nice not beat on the trail rig.

“With a very heavy heart I have decided to part with my jeep. I did a complete restoration on this jeep back in the late 90’s, had it in several Petaluma Veteran’s Day Parades, and used it as a regular driver for a long time. I drove the hell out of it, so much so that it needed to go through another rebuild. And that is where she is today, in the middle of a rebuild. However, I find that I am at an impasse and I’m just not getting this project done so it’s time to go.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was Make Offer.
Needs work.
“1950 Willys, needs major work. Will need to be trailered by buyer, probably good for parting out, only. Has clean title, currently owned by Marine Corps League. Reasonable offers only.”

On Sunday Ann and I went to visit Rich and the “Tender” jeep wagon/truck he has for sale. The truck is in pretty rough shape, but the shell of it could be re used. However, there are lots of bees. The bees limited my ability to take pics, especially of the inside. Yet, it was the inside of the truck that demonstrated the vehicle was definitely not a factory jeep.
My theory is that someone saw one of these Tenders in Israel. Inspired, when they returned to the states they built a few of these, hence the reason several look the same. They must have had some skills, because the top looks great on the top. It’s only on the underside of the ceiling that you can see the seam near the back. Moreover, it looks like a flat fender hood channel is used along the underside of the ceiling to provide support.
On the outside of the back of the top, there’s a crack in what appears to be some bondo. The quality of the work is again good and matches the other side.
It looks like the top of the sides of the former wagon has been capped. There appears to be cracks forming along the metal (see pic above … note crack about an inch below the top of the rear of the bed).
Other pics and notes:
The tailgate was not finished. The lip on the top of the tailgate was left as it was. The area underneath the tailgate window at the back of the cab looks like it might have been blocked with wood. I did not look too closely. This “Tender” was modified with a spring over axle, but the original spring perches were left.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3800.
Looks good for the price.
“1947 CJ2A, Older restoration, lift kit, new top and doors, runs and drives, Warn Overdrive, Sears locking hubs, Antique tags, needs brakes. $3800.00. Leave name and number on machine”
UPDATE: Was $5200. **SOLD**
“Here’s a 1962 Willys pickup, 4×4, manual transmission, with a 350 v8 for 5200.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2700.
This might be a good price.
“This is a 1946 Willys jeep cj2a. Runs/drives good. 4wd works well. Body is fair, looks like a jeep. Tires are great with new spare included. Clear title in hand. Might consider partial trade for jet ski/wave runner.”
