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 .

“I have for sale my 1962 Willys Jeep m170 ambulance. It is basically like a military Willys m38a1 except it has a longer wheelbase. Being military it has the dana 44 axles and heavier duty leaf springs. It currently does not run as it needs the wiring harness reattached. It ran and drove great 3 summers ago before I ended up parking it and and pulling the harness for another vehicle. The harness is there, it just needs hooked back up. It is a universal harness I ordered because the original wiring was a mess. It has no top. I have the original harness and a few extra manuals and parts to go with it also.”
UPDATE: Was listed at $450. **SOLD**

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was priced at $400.
“Complete PTO package. Includes Ramsey 8000 pound PTO winch, full drum of cable, pair of hooks, and a fairlead. Also includes PTO driveshaft, offset drive box and in/out box. Even includes an ULTRA RARE! adaptor to mount the in/out box onto the back of a Warn Overdrive. (how it was set up on my 63 CJ5) I’m also including all the brakets and bolts that held the unit to my frame and t-case.
Everything is currently set up for a CJ5 with overdrive in stock transfer case location. I cannot promise that the driveshaft length will work on a CJ2A/3A/3B as I know they are a couple inches shorter in wheelbase. If you are mounting the PTO directly to transfer case, without an overdrive, the driveshaft will need shortened. If you have moved the transfer case for an automatic trans, the driveshaft will need adjusted
If your willing the make driveshaft changes, the setup should work with any Spicer Model 18 transfer case. Jeep CJ, Willys wagon/pickup, even some early Internationals.
Unit works great. I remove everything every fall to shed weight for racing season and I’m getting tired of reinstalling it. I have never needed it to get unstuck, but I did fire it up to respool the cable every time I reinstalled it.”

(05/23/2013) The seller labels this a WWII Jeep in the Craigslist title, but it looks more like a CJ-3A.
“I have a Willys Jeep that would be a great base for a restoration project. The motor purrs, and was just put in after being gone over thouroughly. It starts quickly and idles effortlessly.
The body is a little rough, but everything is mostly there and needs only time and TLC.
You basically have to see it to assess what you need to do. It will make someone a nice project because the basics are all there pretty much. It is driveable as you can see in the pics.
Finding one of these driveable is rare (unless restored), and most aren’t even a rolling chassis.
If you want to see it, it will be at the Ripkin Stadium in Aberdeen, Maryland this weekend for the Military Flea Market. Come and see it and make me an offer !
I’m asking a very reasonable $3500 WITH TITLE ! GETTING A WILLYS WITH TITLE IS VERY RARE ! If I don’t sell it at the show, it will be back in Bel Air after Saturday.
I also can deliver it for you for a reasonable fee.
Please call Bob @ 410-236-7436 NO TEXTS”

Bob spotted this photo of a FC-170 built for airports. It’s caption read “New for 1957”. Like the CJ-5 and Jeep Truck airport vehicles, this likely had dual tanks, possibly for water, de-ice or refuse. Here are more examples at the CJ-3B page: http://cj3b.info/Literature/AircraftSupport.html
UPDATE: Was on eBay. **SOLD**

Give the year of the ad, the use of a CJ-2A sprayer in the ad seems odd.

Runs, but needs a little work. This isn’t too far from me.
