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 .
It’s got the wrong windshield, but otherwise looks like there might be value.

This panel might be worth a look.
“1948 Willy’s overland 4×4 panel service wagon. 93 jimmy v6 running motor installed. interested in Sportster chopper Harley or interesting offers”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was listed at $1500.
I bought the truck for the bed and don’t need the rest. This is the wide track version not the narrow track. Solid cab corners and doors. Desirable set of lockouts. Now the bad, for some reason the last owner welded around where the top of the cab meets the bottom and welded straps on the body. Never seen anything like it. Not sure why they did it. I was told running when parked but if it was it was a long time ago.
If you know anything about FC’s you know finding a rust free cab with good doors isn’t the easiest thing to come across.
I have a ton of pictures, email me for them.
No title, $1,500 OBO Bring a trailer and cash.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $600
I suspect this isn’t a ’45.

Buz forwarded these photos showing a WWII jeep at play. He was wondering what the silver vehicle was (see third photo). Is that some kind of jeep from India or Pakistan? My brief searches yielded no clues.
Here are a couple links Matt forwarded related to the pics:

Steve at G503.com got his hands on a copy of a very rare book produced by Willys Overland called “The Mighty Jeep”. He’s been kind enough to make and bind copies that he’s selling for $45 (plus shipping). He has a limited supply of the reproduced books. You can learn more there.

“AAM All American Models Resin 1950’s Willys Jeep Wagon — All American Models is no longer in business, but they produced some very nice resin kits, and they have become very difficult to find today. In fact, they are quickly becoming collector items, with modelers scooping them up every chance they get. This 1/25 scale All American Models resin ’50’s Jeep wagon includes the body, hood, floor pan, seats, dash, interior side panels, windshield frame, vent window frames, firewall, unplated rear bumper and front bumper with winch, unplated grille, headlights, parking lights and taillights. Nice clean casting with no pinholes.

Here’s another good looking CJ-2A in the Boise area for sale. There have been several lately. Of course, I had to move away for that to happen!
“1949 CJ-2A Willys Jeep. Runs great, drive train to include 4 wheel drive are functional. Has new tires and a new drivers seat. Has a winch on the front, however I have never used it and don’t know if it is actually in working condition or not. Please text or call me with questions. 401-5404 Thanks”
http://boise.craigslist.org/cto/4129379673.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3200.
This looks like a great price for a solid, non stock M-38A1.
“One of the last batch of M381s made for the Marine Corps in the mid 60s (manufactured 10/63). Nice straight body with a few extra holes but otherwise pretty much original. There is some rust in the foot wells as usual but the rest is rust free and original. Runs and drives very well. Cute little Ford 2.8L V6 engine (few hundred miles on a new long block) nicely installed but the rest of the drive train is original. Original limited-slip rear end. Steering & seats are not original but all can be reasonably reversed if you are so inclined. In the meantime it runs great and looks good. A great parade vehicle or for having fun on trails, sand dunes, etc. More powerful and more comfortable than a totally original jeep is a plus.
Koenig winch, drive shaft, and PTO (tranny was rebuilt recently and PTO is not yet installed). Roll bar and new belts are included. Tow bar included (she tows like a dream).
Clean Oregon title, Special Interest plate.
Priced to reflect the non-original condition. Only $3200 for a nice looking and great running historical military Jeep.”

This generally looks pretty good except for the unusual bow/crack/look of the passenger side above the drain hole.
“Engine 4 cylinder L4-134 All wheel dirve or rear only serial #J213802 body #188795. All original, 45,000 miles. Motor runs very good – new wires – new seat covers – new brakes.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000
Seller is trying to get it running. It has no title.
“Probably a 50’s Willys CJ3B
Has been in the family for decades, but has been in barn for maybe 20 years.
Still 6 volt. Transfer case seems to shift normally, but the transmission appears to be stuck in a gear. Has fat ag. tires on it, plus 4 original rims. No seats. Like I said, it’s a barn find; as-is where is. Price is negotiable.
No title.
I tried to turn the motor with a wrench and it wiggled, so I took out the plugs and put some oil in the cylinders and tightened the fan belt. It rotates easily just by turning the fan! I put a charger on the 18 year old battery and found that the solenoid works and the starter turns, but it is not engaging as of yet. May take a new battery or the starter may need to be lubed up a little. The Jeep is now on a truck at my house in Coinjock and will be heading to Richmond within another week if not sold. I still do not actually have time to tinker with this, but as I do the price goes up! If I get it running it will go up to $3500, right now I popped it up to $2000. These are getting very collectible, and though this one has some rust on the body, it has not been abused like so many jeeps of the past.”
Paul found this toy for sale. This appears to be missing the steering wheel and the windshield.

It runs. Floors are overrated. Gas leaks add excitement.
“Everything works great,smooth operating plow,must take 1966 cj5 willies with plow.the jeep has no floors and the gas tank leaks.all running gear and almost every gadget,heater,blinkers,radio,ect…this thing plows awesome,I just live on hwy 33 and the state leaves me nice 3-4 foot piles of ice,it moves them but just to hard on the old girl.good tread all 4×4 works good,tight turning radius.besides needing some tlc you can have yourself a stong running plow jeep for half the price if a descent snowblower.the main issues are the gas tank which you can get new direct replacement for$209 for steel and like ten dollars more for poly.there is a loose brake line that needs to be tightened also but it’s ready to plow.only reply by phone”
