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: **SOLD** Was $3250.
It’s a project.
“I have a 1962 jeep willys fc150 project forsale. It needs restored, the body is in great condition for its age. I needs body work and paint. The engine ran when I pulled the cab and bed off the frame to restore it. I am now getting married and don’t have time and funds to finish, but will make an awesome project when it is completed.”
Needs work, but has a rear PTO.
“1946 Willy’s Jeep. All authentic parts. Needs some work.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $300.
Listed as a 1946, I think this is more likely a CJ-3A.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4800.
“1948 Willys CJ2A It’s a “Lefty”. Moving Sale. Restoration project, ready for final assembly to build and paint as buyer wishes. Family owned for the past 30 years.

(06/05/2015) Does it run? No description provided.
Roy Wililams shared some photos of his jeeps. The first two photos show the lightweight bobcat body Fred Weis built for Roy, the first lightweight racing Bobcat body Fred made.
Here’s a look at Roy and his racer. Great photo!:
This photo of Roy racing his jeep I found in a 1976 Sunfair booklet. The Sunfair was a 300 mile race near Yakima, Washington, that was first held in 1975. In 1976, Drivers met on Saturday, September 11, at 9am for tech inspection. At 10pm the drivers gathered to parade through downtown Yakima on their way to the course. Racing started at noon. Racers drove either 10 or 12 laps depending on their class. Based on the map below, it appears each lap was 23 miles.
Among the racers here is Don Bray. Roy and the Brays raced a few times over the years. Don’s son Ed shared these photos.
This is a CJ-3B Roy used to own:
Roy recently purchased this CJ-5. I’m looking forward to seeing it and meeting Roy in person!
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500.
(06/17/2019) This militarized CJ-2A might be worth a look. It appear solid.
Looks perfect for cruising the local metal sculptures.

(11/07/2015) Nice looking early CJ-5.
“1958 CJ-5, very good mostly original condition. F-134 motor runs excellent, mechanically sound. Solid body with steel Koenig half cab (I do have the doors, just took them off for the summer). 60/40 bench seat. Serious inquiries only. Thanks for looking.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $10,000.
Looks road ready.
“1959 Willys truck 4×4, with overdrive, new tires, 289 Ford v8. ”
Has some updates along with a fiberglass tub.
“Thinking of selling.
Rare CJ6 in great condition. Soft top and bikini top. In line 6. Runs great and. Always garage kept and only used to drive around town. I don’t take her off road but I’m sure someone before me has😉 . Fiber glass tub that is ready for new paint or just left as is. 33″ mud tires with a spare set of brand new BFGoodrich all-terrain 33 inch snow tires. With rims.”

Unusual rear cargo setup.
“This is an all original stock civilian Jeep except for the electric fuel pump that has been installed.
All lights, instruments, horn works. Engine is very strong, does not burn oil. Runs rough while warming up but smooths out in five minutes. It has a small oil leak on the engine rear seal.
The only things that don’t work are the emergency brake and the drivers side vacuume driven windshield wiper because it was run off the original fuel / vacuume pump. Original fuel pump is still on the engine but needs to be replaced.
It has three fuel tanks, two under the seats and one in the rear.
It drives great and is a lot of fun with two speed transfer case to crawl around in low range.
Odometer says 11,000 miles but is probably 111,000.
Someone took good care of this Jeep. It was stored inside a shop when I bought it.
You can get historic licence plates for a one time fee of $10 that never need to be renewed.
Call or email if you have any questions.”

“I have a lot of stuff that needs to go. Including bar lights n signs, a nestle hot cocoa machine like brand new,a smaller but not mini fridge with racing and riding stickers on it, tacky yet cool for a man cave or garage, car audio system, tools, even a 43 Willy’s jeep I’ll put up the pics I have if your interested in more call or text me anytime I can send more pics thru text and/or have you come take a look at every thing for sale. ”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
Not running at the moment.
“1951 Jeep Willys, purchased by my father three years ago. It was running just over two years ago before he passed, and has been sitting since. As far as I know, it’s not running now (although I wouldn’t know how to get it running anyway). It was a project in process.
We know nothing about it other than what we paid for it, and what it was worth to him. He was a jeeping enthusiast who belonged to many local 4wd clubs, and would not have wanted it if it were junk. His intent was to refurbish it and use it as a mild wheeler and for special interest meets. As I said, he was driving it just over two years ago. If you’re a SERIOUS enthusiast and buyer (as he was), you are welcome to come take a look.
NO TIRE KICKERS. No trades.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3900.
A project for sure, but the body looks solid for a new england Jeepster.
“Willys Jeepster 6 cyl turns over, body in very good cond, new top. Needs floor work on passenger side. ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.

Engine is blown.
“I have a great 59 cj3b jeep also known as a high hood. Not a great candidate for a perfect restoration but would be great for a hunting jeep or off road rig. Motor blew and po removed it and the radiator. The rest is complete. In the last few years a new gas tank and guage cluster was installed along with a few other parts. Body is pretty good but not rust free. Front floors are solid rear mda attention. Body is cracked by spare tire. All tires hold air. I was gonna put in a Buick 225 to replace he factory 4cyl but need to spend the time on my business. Currently loaded on my trailer and I can deliver for a fee or if close we can work something out. I have a bill of sale from the po and am willing to provide one myself. ”

UPDATE: You might remember the 2013 adventure of a pair of Italians who bravely drove their MB from Italy to Toledo. Ann and I nearly met them along their trip to the east coast, but our timing was a little off. Well, the pair received a post-trip honor. I’ll let Gregory explain:
A couple of years ago you were kind enough to publicize a trip undertaken by two half-witted Italians to drive back to Toledo an original Willys to MB so that it could celebrate its 70th birthday in its hometown.
Some in the Ewillys community might like to know that the adventure has found a degree of official recognition by being included in the “Modus Vivendi” (Way of Life”) exhibition which runs until 27 September at the Turin Auto Museum, in company of vehicles which have raced the Panamericana, re-enacted the Beijing-Paris race or crossed Africa from Algiers to Cape Town. Our New York to Toledo drive was among the shortest, but also the one performed by the oldest car and the only one by enthusiasts with no sponsorship.
I am attaching a couple of pictures of the display and a description of the exhibition. Sadly the Museum website is rather thin on details, but more information about the trip, car and crew can be found on our “A Jeep Comes Home” blog and the similarly-titled Facebook page.
Thanks for your excellent website and the services it provides to the Jeep community worldwide. –Gregory Alegi
As you can see in the photo, the jeep shows pretty well against the backdrop of some fancier vehicles (Note to Ann — Honey, if this isn’t a good reason to go to Italy, I can’t think of another ….)
Tim shared these photos from the 2015 Great Willys Picnic in Kempton, Pennsylvania.
Here’s an interesting bit of history for those interested in the Safari Kar. The seller marks this as a released in 1996, but given it is introducing its 1995 line, I think it was printed earlier.
“Original typewritten press release , 8.5 x 11 , UNILLUSTRATED , describes 1975 to 1983 remanufactured US Post Office Jeeps . This was printed in 1996 by Safari Kar .”
