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 .
Looks solid.

It appears solid.
“1948 Willys CJ-2A for sale. It’s generally in good shape, but isn’t totally original. It starts, runs, drives, and stops. Here are the highlights in no particular order:
– It has a 1978 Ford Pinto engine that runs well
– The entire brake system was replaced about a year ago, and now has a dual reservoir master cylinder
– The transmission is the original 3 speed
– The vehicle’s top speed is 35-40 mph
– There is some rust on the vehicle, but nothing extreme
– The vehicle has a clear title and current registration
Text, call, or email to check it out.”

Ted’s got 2 M-170 Stretchers sale. Contact him at willysted @ charter.net.
2 M-170 Stretchers $100 Each or $150 for the pair:
“I have some interesting left over military ambulance stretchers I would like to sell.They are in excellent condition and would be a great addition to someone restoring an M170 or even a m38.”
A couple folks contacted me asking about this one. The seller is convinced this is a shortened wagon. I did try searching “2wd shorties”, but didn’t see anything about jeeps. I have tried to document very short wagons here, however the wagon in the photo looks standard to me. Anyone have insights?
“I have a 2wd willys wagon shortie Project no motor or tranny (the motor and tranny Sold) floor boards are rusted, i have seats that can go with it if u want them have to Many projects may part trade for two sparco race seats or ? Please do not email

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2200.
“This is a solid running and driving old Jeep. Body is in good shape. There is some rust repair underneath and the usual dents and dings.(not a show car) Newer F-head engine runs like a champ and no leaks. The seals leak on the tranny and transfer case. This does not effect the drivability, I just found it easier to refill every couple months as to a repair!(I’ve found most Jeeps of this era like to “mark their territory”) Interior has newer seats w/ seatbelts.(could use some seat covers) Has been converted to 12v. I also have the frame and doors for the soft top but NO soft top skin. I have more pictures available and please call with ANY questions. I’ve owned this rig for about a year and am only parting with it because I recently acquired a 1944 MB! Willing to trade for a mid-life crisis! I’m looking for an old muscle car 60’s or 70’s. An ’82-90 Camaro could work too.(no v6’s) Maybe a pop up camper in REAL good shape(no junk) or anything cool and automotive related NO boats I’m not looking to re-assemble a project or pick up a basket case. Call with any offers I can trade up or down with cash or other items(air tools, bang sticks, guy stuff) Mine runs and drives, yours should too! I am willing to do some work and have no delusions of grandeur. Just want to make fair trade.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
Jim spotted this good price on a pair of M-151s projects or parts jeeps.
“Pair of M151MUTTs one was produced by Willys which is a 63 model. The other was produced by Ford and was built in 66. Both are uncut. Neither run. The 66 has a title but the 63 does not. There are spare parts and a spare complete power pack which consists of radiator engine and transmission.“
This is worth a look.

(02/14/2014) The seller has a variety of parts.
“Hi, I’m looking to sell my 1948 Willy’s cj2a jeep project. It is all original and in need of some work. It has all the parts except a battery, I even have metal for the bodywork. It needs body work including floors, assembly, and the frame needs to be fixed in a spot.
I, also have lots of extra parts, a plow and everything to use it, and a set of 1948 license plates.
It doesn’t have a title because it’s so old, but it comes with a bill of sale.
I’m not really in a rush to get rid of it, I don’t really have interest in it anymore and I’d like to get something that has some more power. I am interested in trading for an El Camino, Ranchero, Brat, Rampage, old Dakota, muscle car, or maybe something else let me know, or just cash.”

<– Wed. July 30th Oroville to Colville | North Washington Trip
This map only shows our route from Colville to Priest River, but we drove home late Thursday night.
I stayed up late Wednesday night completing emails and posts, so we stayed in bed until 10AM at Benny’s Colville Inn motel in downtown Colville. The motel was a solid 1 1/2 stars. We had a king bed with slightly uneven box springs. The bottom sheet wasn’t fitted, so it moved easily underneath us. But, the room was quiet, cool, and comparatively cheap. The lobby was unusual, part taxidermy showcase and part firearms museum. The staff was friendly, especially an older female gardner who began to talk to us and wouldn’t stop. I finally had to close the room door, albeit graciously, while she talked until she couldn’t see us anymore. She was a little off . . .
The other oddity we encountered involved the water. When we took our showers, we had the MOST difficult time washing the soap off of us. Either they softened the water too much or there was something else in the water, but neither of us could recall such a difficult time removing soap. Since we’d brought the soap from home, we knew it had to be something in the water (we finally had to use towels to feel clean of the soap).
At 11AM we pulled out of the motel, the temperature already in the low 80s. It was going to be hot again. We drove up to Kettle Falls, then turned to drive north toward Canada. Our first stop was at the Roosevelt Reservoir, a large body of water fed by the Columbia River, which winds through much of Washington State until it flows by our home in Pasco a couple miles away. One of the neat aspects of the Roosevelt Reservoir area is that the shorelines remain free of houses, giving the area a remote, peaceful feeling.
Roosevelt Reservoir behind us.
Back on Hwy 25, we stopped at every campground to evaluate them for future camping. Our favorite place was a small no-reservation campground called North Gorge. This campsite would have been perfect had we brought the motorhome. There were no other sites adjacent to it.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500.
(04/18/2014) It has a rear PTO winch.

(07/26/2014) Has some rust.
“I have a super rare 1962 Willys FC-150 (Forward Control). Approximately 8800. It’s powered by a 4cyl F4 with a 3 speed T-90 transmission (rebuilt) all new brakes, carb was rebuilt, new shocks, 12volt conversion chassis was all painted. All lights and directionals work. Heat works. All glass is there and in great shape. The body is rough in some spots but it’s all there. I was driving the truck every weekend and let me tell you the stares and looks I would get were worth the truck alone.”
<– July 28th/29th Pasco to Oroville | North Wash Trip | July 31st Colville to Priest Lake –>
In 1986 during a jeep drive around Washington I stopped by to visit my great aunt and uncle, Tom and Ev in Oroville. That’s when I took the top photo. Yesterday, I decided to recreate the photo. Since Tom has since passed, I stood in for him.
As I remembered from my previous visit to Oroville in 1986, my great aunt Ev was a gracious host and great cook. We awoke at eight O-clock on Wednesday morning to find a table set with fresh fruit and home made granola. She also whipped up some eggs and bacon for us. Good stuff!
After breakfast we toured the apple orchards that they farmed for many years before selling them. Naturally, if she needs some fresh fruit during the summer, she doesn’t have to go far out her backdoor to find some!
At 90yo, she still can farm a mean garden! The orchards are behind her garden. In the background stands “Numbers Mountain” where the high schoolers used to paint mark their class years.
Joe’s son-in-law drives a truck in New Jersey and forwarded this cool photo to Joe. You don’t see three jeeps on a trailer too often.
It runs! Never seen a Willys Overland jeep listed as a “AMC”. Includes soft top.
“AMC CJ3a no title, runs great! see pictures for original items. I have the soft top, and original air cleaner. It is converted to 12 volt with the original generator.”

Runs and drives, but needs some TLC.
“For your consideration, a WW2 jeep, a Ford GPW, DOD 6/11/1945. This is a running vehicle, licensed and clear title, but needs some TLC, of course. It has matching serial numbers of engine, body, and frame. The engine is a recent rebuild with about 100 miles on it. The body is in fair shape and has many F marked parts. The bumper is not original and the rare crossmember is missing. It has been converted to 12 volt key start, and has an upgrade T-90 transmission. It has turn signals, hazards, seat belts, and an electric WS wiper for the driver side. It has aftermarket vinyl top and doors. The jeep has been outfitted with 11″ brakes and Rancho springs and shocks. There is a new master cylinder, new left wheel cylinder, new flexible left brake line. The fuel system has an original fuel tank, boiled out and relined, new fuel line with additional fuel filter inline, new fuel pump, rebuilt original Carter W-O carburetor. The air filter has been overhauled. The front seats are overstuffed naugahyde. It could probably use new tires soon. It can be a candidate for retro to original WW2 configuration, or continue with what you have. “
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5200.
Looks like a good jeep. I was surprised to see the original motor in it.
“49 CJ3A. 4 cyl ” Go Devil motor” , T90 trans, Dana 18 transfer case, Warn Overdrive, Dana 44 rear axle, Dana 25 front axle, Xtra Dana 41 & 25 axles complete, 11″ drum brakes, Saginaw steering, Rancho suspension, 31X10.50R15 Tires, 12 Volt system w Radio, Bikini top, Cab cover. Runs Great.”
