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 .
Here’s a rare jeep-train photo Marc forwarded. I’ll see if I can find more info about this. We stopped near here during our stay in Mackinaw City, MI in May.

Marc spotted this neat photo. It’s a reprint.
“On 12 January 1945, the first convoy of 113 vehicles, led by General Pick, departed from Ledo; they reached Kunming, China on 4 February 1945 :: 12.6 x 17.4 cm (approximately 5.0 x 6.8 inches).”

Here’s a good look at some chassis assembly.

UPDATE:Was $3250. **SOLD**
(01/03/2014) Brad’s selling this nice looking DJ-3A at a good price. The only minor issue I see is the modified steps, but those could be repaired over time.
“Willys DJ-3A, Survivor, 2WD, 1958 Flat Fender Dispatch Jeep 4×2, Mostly Restored with rebuilt engine & transmission. Other items; new Best Top, brakes, radiator, elec cooling fan, rebuilt steering box & carb. Runs needs some TLC.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
Runs, but no title.
“1947 Jeep Willys was being build for a mud race truck, but don’t have time for it anymore. Asking $2000 or will take best offer. Runs, no title bill of sale only, Tires do hold air would be Great for Deer lease hunting buggy. ”
UPDATE: Was $2500. **SOLD**
Runs and drives.
“This is a 1947 Willys CJ2A. It is running and driving. The distributor is totally worn out and we plan to replace it when the new one we have on order shows up. The steering is pretty worn like most of these are. It has been sitting for a while and the brakes will most likely need bleeding. It will need a 12 volt battery and fresh gas. The 4×4 works fine and the motor holds 30 to 40 psi oil pressure. It has been patched here and there on the body but looks pretty decent.
We are not interested in trading for cars, trucks, livestock, Boats, or ATVs. I will consider other willys jeeps. Bring cash and the jeep will come with a bill of sale.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $15,000
Bill’s willing to sell his jeep for the right offer.
“I am thinking about selling my 1952 willys m38 and just want to see what interest is out there for it. It is a good running driving jeep. The engine has less than 1000 miles since it was rebuilt last spring. It is still 24 volt. Everything but the fuel gauge works. Tires are also new with about 1000 miles on them. The paint is not perfect but good for a driver jeep. I would be looking for $15,000 or best reasonable offer on this jeep. You could not build one for less. The photos show a winch on it, the winch would not be included with the sale. It is painted the original USAF strata blue. The trailer pictured as already been sold.”
I doubt this runs, but the body appears solid. No description provided.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8200. Check out near identical wagon that’s a 1957.
(06/12/2012) The seller believes this might be a Traveller, but Dan points out the following:
1. It’s a ’56 and Travellers were made 1960-1964 (to the best of his knowledge).
2. It has the polygon rear fender openings of a wagon, not the curved of a Delviery that Travellers and Parkways were made from.
3. It has the low roof, not the high roof.
Unclear how much value is here.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4800.
(12/21/2013) I wonder if that windshield is a modified 2A? Looks like the front clip has been stretched pretty cleanly.
“1948 Willys body on 1979 Jeep frame, rebuilt 360 jeep motor. 38.5 tires, Been parked in garage for years and finally ready to sale. Call with any questions,”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $11,500.
(12/16/2013) Looks like this has a spring over mod and a few other changes.
“I have a 1953 CJ-3A for sale. It looks and runs excellent. It has the “Go Devil” L-Head 134 c.i. 4 Cylinder engine, 3 speed T-90 transmission, and Dana model 18 transfer case. Has been updated to 12 volt. We called her Wilma and she would go anywhere we pointed her.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2550
(06/05/2013) That 3A has an odd front bumper. Note how far back it extends.
“this is for a willys jeep project,it is a 1953 CJ3A with a good running 283 Chevy V-8 engine and no body. The other is a 1957 CJ3B good body with roll cage.. The two pieces would make a great jeep with plenty of power and low end torque as it has 538 gears. Title for the 1957 body is available as I have the vin plate and registration but no title, bill of sale only. I have a refurbished under the seat gas tank and a rear 6 gallon unused gas tank to go with it and a good windshield. I also have used front disc brakes for an additional $175.the title can be gotten for an additional $300.00 extra or through the lost title process.”
Yesterday Dave Alexander wrote to share the Tuxedo Park he and his wife Cindy have owned for nearly two decades.
He writes, We have had ours since 1994. We bought it from an older guy who towed it behind his motorhome occasionally, he was original owner . It had 32k now has 48k I think. My wife and I drive it a little every summer and enjoy it very much. We pile the dogs in and go. It’s got the two speed shifter between seats giving it 6 forward gears, and posi front and rear diffs, I have the original white softop and doors in rafters. Also have a rear wheel tire kit I took off so we can drop tailgate. It will cruise at 70 on freeway on calm day all day long, just don’t turn to sharp cause my wife will fall out. The Shepard fell out once, I just went back and picked him up, he sure had a funny look I his face. And in the snow, only once, it will swap ends in a New York minute.
Here’s a Happy New Year from Roberto!
Glenn pointed out this unusual 4Wd jeep-like vehicle that was offered for import back in 1972. I can’t imagine too many of them made it to the states.
UPDATE: This is back on eBay.
Yikes! I think that snake could swallow a jeep!

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Dennis noted that the VIN indicates these are CJ-7s.
Craig spotted this CJ-7 tour jeep. Seems like a good price. I suspect this jeep comes from the same tour Tucson company as these CJ-7 tour jeeps that were auctioned back in 2012.
