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 Jeep was registered to the Georgia Forestry Department for most of its life. It had 58,827 miles on the odometer.
It sat for over 10 years in a barn before the owner sold it to the person before me. It has many new components, from seals to gas tank and many items in between. Runs and Drives very good. Being a southern Jeep, the body was very clean. New paint, factory Pewter Grey Metallic, looks very nice. 35″ Super Swampers (new) on New Mickey Thompson wheels. It does have fiberglass front fenders, both original fenders were bent over time.
304 AMC V-8, T-15 3 Speed Transmission, Dana 20 Transfer Case, Dana 30 front Axle & Dana 44 Rear Axle. I believe it has 3.73 gearing.
The Jeep CJ-6 was introduced for 1956, and was in production for just under 20 years. It was essentially identical to the classic CJ-5, just stretched by a massive 20 inches. There were 2800 made this last year of production for the US.
1973, when parent company AMC shoved a 304-cubic-inch V8 under the hoods of all CJ models. AMC also improved the rest of the vehicle by equipped heavier axles, bigger brakes and a wider track.
The CJ-6, moving just 50,172 units over the course of its two-decade life”

(11/17/2014) Has some updates.
“This ‘ol girl has a Buick 231ci V6 swap with a TH350 with shift kit behind it mating, via AdvanceAdapters hardware, to the stock Dana 18 transfer case. Both motor and tranny are freshly rebuilt with less than 500 miles on either. It has not been a daily driver. Paint is about 2 years old, needs some touch up. There’s tinkering to be done here and there but she’s a real good ‘ol Jeep. Tires are brand new 35/12.5/15 Goodyear MTR Kevlar with zero wear.”
Gerald Colletz spotted this CJ-2A at the Alaska Aviation Museum and submitted it to Four Wheeler Magazine. Check out all the photos here: http://www.fourwheeler.com/how-to/tech-qa/1501-your-jeep-january-2015/

Here’s another look from the front of the jeep. This photo was taken a few years ago when it was inside.
Ron Day found this old photo he took showing a group of spectators and their vehicles at a race sponsored by the Jeep Jockeys Jeep Club sometime in the late 1970’s or early 80’s. This is west of Yakima, Washington near the small community of Tampico.
Here’s an odd vintage photo.

“I have for sale an original American WW2 icon. Both Willys and Ford built the same vehicle with totally interchangeable parts from 1942 to 1945. I have been putting together this project for a number of years and have come to the conclusion that someone else needs to finish it.I have collected quite a few items (such as correct tools, military paraphernalia and extra parts) that would complement a project such as this.”
Runs and drives.
“1950 Willys CJ2A Jeep, Military, rebuilt 4 cyl motor with less than 1000 miles on it. Upgraded big drum brakes, new off road wheels and new off road tires. Seats replaced from later model jeep.

“Willys Model M38A1 built in 1954. It was restored from an M38A1 that was untouched since its days in the US Army. When purchased, It still had OD paint and the hood and unit numbers were still visible. The body was very good.

I’ve owned this jeep for three years, purchased from a filmmaker/collector here locally who has several willys. I’m not sure how long he had it prior, but I got the distinct impression he’s committed to these vehicles. He has specific shops in Treadwell and Morris that he trusts to work on these (Morris is an hour away from here, which says something.)
I could not speak with certainty on the engine being original– I do know he had it machined and tuned just prior to my acquisition. The carb was also rebuilt.
The brakes seem to be in good condition. The top is in good condition minus a couple chips in the rim. All glass is in good condition (the side windows do not roll down). There is no handle on the passenger door.
The floor pans had been repaired in the past– plates added– they’re adequate but it could be prettier. There are a few rust holes. The toolbox is pretty rusty and has a few holes.
The frame looks good.
It has most certainly been repainted– I couldn’t say what the original color was.
New battery this spring. The wiring needs the turn signals and brake lights sorted out.
Runs very well and strong. Front wheel 4WD locks move well without a tool.
I deregistered it last year as I was fundamentally using it on the farm (to move firewood, and rarely) and didn’t want to pay insurance. I have the papers for easy transfer.
Quite simply, this jeep has gotten little use since I got it– housed in the barn, battery changed, rewiring started, oil changed. I’d keep it if we didn’t need to cover some unexpected expenses.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4250.
Has the wrong grille for a 1950. Also has a BIG fuel tank.
“Runs good. Smog exempt. Stock with the exception of it has a 47 gal fuel tank…has current Calif. License. Original paint great patina”
This runs and drives, but has no title. Listed as a 1954, but obviously is later than that.
“i am list my 1954 jeep willies 4×4. this jeep runs and drives. i am asking 2000 firm and if you have any questions call”
