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 .

Advertised as a 1952 CJ-3A, this looks more 2Aish, though it has full floating rear hubs. It doesn’t include wheels or tires.
“Project jeep, no drivetrain, the former owner started cutting the motor mounts out to install a small block, so you have some welding work. No title, bill of sale only. Perfect for a rock crawler, sand racer, or as a parts Jeep.
I bought this strictly for the military wheels and tires, it does NOT come with wheels and tires. If you bring a set of rollers, I’ll change them out in 10 minutes for you. Or, if this Jeep is pre-paid, I can deliver it to you for gas money, and remove the wheels when I get there. “
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $2900

Thanks to John for sharing this. Nope, not a jeep, but still a fun ride through San Francisco. Looks like a great car to drive. You can see there were multiple runs at most locations. So, the driver got to play a bunch.
Over the last couple of days I’ve been trying to get as much done as I can before my son arrives. As you can see, I’ve got the engine, transmission and transfer case installed. I’ve also updated all the rear brake lines and installed the new rear springs.
Unfortunately, I dropped the engine down enough within the chassis (when I changed the engine mounts) that the transfer case output yoke is too level, resulting in sharp driveline drop. So, I’m having to drop the tranny and TC. I might have to twist the rear axle as well, but will waiting until I set the body on the frame to see how the rear pinion angle changes.
So, more work ahead . . . This afternoon Colter and I will be heading to Gig Harbor to pick up Track Avenger 470cfm rebuilt carb I found on Craigslist. It will replace the old Carter 500 cfm that needed fixing.
This person received a Hamilton pedal jeep as a Christmas present several decades ago. Neat old video.
Has a little wear.

Interior could use some polish. Outside looks great.
“We have owned this car since 1991 and it has been well maintained..

Has new seat covers, 3 original and 1 duplicated.”

Looks like a good project.
“Jeep was acquired for a restoration project and stored in an enclosed barn for the past 10 years.
I have come to the realization that I will not be able to get to restoring it. It has a lot of potential as it comes with the original motor, drivetrain, frame and body. It has areas of rust and missing the fuel tank. The jeep is loaded with “f” marked parts and has all original Glove Box identification plates.
A great project. Jeep does not have title, but will come with a bill of sale and copy of the original bill of sale.”

UPDATE: Was on eBay **Status Unknown**
(02/26/2014) This former California FC appears to still have a California black plate on the front.
“YOU ARE LOOKING AT MY 1964 JEEP FC170. IF YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN ONE AND STUMBLED ACROSS THIS AUCTION CHECK OUT THEFCCONNECTION.COM. I HAVE ONLY SEEN ONE OTHER OF THESE TRUCKS IN PERSON AND IT WAS A FC150, SHORTER BED AND SOME OTHER THINGS. ONCE I SAW IT I KNEW I HAD TO FIND ONE. THIS FC SPENT MOST OF ITS LIFE IN CALIFORNIA WHICH IS WHY IT IS SO PRESERVED. I WAS TOLD IT WAS A CAMPER WHICH IS WHY IT IS IN SUCH GOOD SHAPE. MILEAGE SHOWS 25K AND I BELIEVE IT TO BE FAIRLY ACCURATE BUT CAN NOT GUARANTEE THAT. IT HAS BEEN SLIGHTLY CUSTOMIZED.
The rear wheel-wells have been altered.
“1947 Willys Jeep, with extra parts

There are M-38 (dash, tailgate, grille) and CJ-3A (no battery box, cj gas inlet) elements on the body. Not sure what’s going on here. Seller lists as a CJ-3A.
“Willys Jeep runs good. Completely refurbished, engine idles very well and mechanically sound. Has a working winch. Military tread tires like new with a spare.”
http://victoriatx.craigslist.org/cto/4570955657.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
Has a cold tranny issue, but appears solid otherwise.
“Has a transmission issue and I just let it warm up before I went anywhere. Postal Jeep for sale that has been used for many years to deliver mail. This thing is a tank. I have left the postal service and was going to restore it but it just seems to sit there. So I will pass this fun to drive Jeep on to you. It has a mail tray that can be removed if you want to use it for other than mail. Its a white 1978 with a 6 cylinder engine and is amazing on gas. CJ5 F. Please call me with any questions you may have and when you would like to come take a look at it and hear it run.”
Is that a primitive tow setup on the back?

The axles are complete as far as I know, but came with a spare set of repeza jointed front axle shafts. As well as the front and rear driveshafts.
No title, just bill of sale.”
