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 article from the July 1947 issue of WO Sales News describes Willys Overland’s launch of the 4WD Truck.
Charles shared this vintage card. The translation is “the war bride”.
It’s a bad day when you get knocked from your jeep then have to chase it a couple blocks.
“This is an original press photo. Pvt Wayne Gingery, Army Jeep driver sits besides his steed after catching up with it after it collided with another jeep in Chicago, Ill.Photo measures 9 x 7.25inches. Photo is dated 06-11-1946.”

This story is interesting. Larson was involved in starting a jeep club in the mid 1960s. Apparently, manufacturers threatened to cut off warranties for any vehicles that entered a club. I’d never heard that.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3800.
(10/15/2012) Appears worth a look at this price.
“I have a 1948 Willys Cj2A. It has an enclosed metal cab(koenig). It is a 4 cylinder, 3 speed, 4wd. Starts and drives, excellent machinical condition. Does not have a heater. Speedometer glass is missing. The plow works. Some holes in floor and frame cracks as noted in pictures. It is running off of a aux. fuel tank in the bed. Four extra mounted tires included.”
UPDATE: Was $16,500.
Looks like a nice rig.

Have all the stuff to hook up 4-wheel drive, driveshaft needs to be cut. Warren 8000 lb winch. B and M shifter. Interior is finished. All new auto meter gauges. All fresh motor and transmission oil.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8995
This militarized CJ-3A looks solid.
“I am offering up for sale my 1949 Willys CJ-3A Jeep. I have owned this Jeep since 1995 after searching for years for a solid flat-fender. It was originally a Fire Jeep from New Jersey where it was used for fighting brush fires. It had always been garaged and was rust free. It has 48,000 original miles. When I acquired it, the owner had painted over the original red paint with an amateur camo pattern, so I decided to do it up as an M38 in WW2 OD. It has always run like a swiss watch. Sheet metal is all original and it is still 6-volt. I installed lock-out hubs, but have the originals. It is a very early CJ-3A, as it has the Dana 41 rear axle, and the windshield is dated Dec. 48. If you are looking for a nice original solid flat-fender, this is it! This is no cobbled-up rust-bucket resurrection like most you see for sale. I have a spare transmission/transfer case and front & rear differentials from a 1952 M38A1, all excellent, which I will include. I dearly hate to part with this Jeep, but we are moving and I will not have storage for it. This is an outstanding early Jeep and a rare opportunity. The CJ-3A is the rarest early model Jeep with only about 100,000 ever made. I will not entertain any low-ball offers, so please don’t waste your time or mine.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500 Right Hand Drive
Listed as a 1955, this is clearly 1972 or later. Runs and stops, but has some rust issues. It’s a rare right hand drive model.
“1955 Jeep CJ6 right hand drive. Solid Tennessee vehicle. Great winter project. 232 6cyl. Runs and stops. Rare long wheel base. Call Tim For more info. Mon thru Sat, days. Come check it out!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000.
This has some updates.
“This is a rare 1974 cj6 JEEP. It has been in my family since new. It has a small block 304 with a three speed manual transmission. It has an 8 inch lift kit on it with 18 inch rims with 37 inch Toyo tires which are practically brand new they still have the nubs on them. The body is in OK shape there is little spots of rust, the interior needs work thanks to my cat. The seats will need to be reupholstered. it has racing seats with 4 point seatbelts for front an back seats. It has custom tail lights, and tailgate. most of the body lines have been smoothed out. I also installed newer differential to have disc brakes. I also have the original one’s too. ”
UPDATE: Was $6000. **SOLD**
(06/21/2013) Looks like a solid jeep.
“Completely rebuilt Ford OH valve 4 cyl. engine; 5 (five) miles on it. Tilt leather steering wheel. Title, licensed to 2015. Two tops included. Completely gone through. $8K in receipts for lots of work (2013). $14K invested. Selling for $6,000.”

It’s road ready.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500.
A variety of repairs have been done to this 2A.
“90% Restored. Includes new floor, under braces, brakes, shocks, gas tank, wiring, and much more… Was running well. Been in storage for 7 months. Comes with extra wheel rims (see picture). For sale as is. You haul. Best offer accepted. Clear title. Serious inquiries only.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
No pics verify this is a CJ-6, but there looks to be parts value. Seller is uncertain about title.
“1956 jeep cj 6 runs and drives have ny registration guess that’s like a title for up there will trade for mason dump”
There’s value here.
“Engine was pulled in 1988-1990 for a rebuild and never made it back in. As far as I know, the trans/axles are still in good working condition, just have been sitting covered in the driveway since then. Frame has some serious rust issues around the front leaf spring rear mount. Hubs turn freely, as does the input shaft of the trans.
Pulled the body off this week as I am building a new frame from 2×3″ and dropping in a fuel injected 2.3 Ford/m5od and a set of YJ axles, so it’s better if I just start fresh.“
http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/mld/pts/4631419524.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500. This is likely a 2A body and chassis. The rear full floating axles could be military or an update to the 2A axles.
“Old Jeep, No Drivetrain. Has both front and rear axles, but no engine or transmission. Former owner started converting to small block Chevy, got as far as losing powertrain and torching motormounts out of frame. (yes, an idiot)
Your turn to make something like a sand buggy or rock crawler out of this. NO TITLE, Bill of sale with the serial number on it from me to you.”
UPDATE: Was $3500. *SOLD**
