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 .
Dan posted some pictures of last weekend’s Pacific Coast Dream Machines Show at Half Moon Bay in California. You can see more here:
Rich spotted and snagged a clip of a “Follow Me” jeep from the James Bond Movie “Gold Finger”. It sure looks like that’s a M-38.
Here are a series of three wagon related photos for sale on eBay. I don’t recognize where the first photo was taken. Anyone else know?

Marc spotted this photo of a man crossing a bridge in his CJ-3B. I think I’d have to look hard underneath that bridge before driving across.

Spencer has this original top for sale. He bought it years ago, but never used it. We believe it is for a CJ-5. It’s in perfect condition. I tired to find more information out about it, but couldn’t find anything on Panorama Tops. You can contact him at spencertatum17@yahoo.com if interested.
The truck looks good.

How about this unusual jeep named Hessie.
“Her name is Hessie! My Dads snow plow and family member.
Dad hates to see her go but she is getting a little old and needs more care then he can give her.
Built from a 1952 4×4 Jeep Willies truck with a tractor cab and hydroturn plow.
He has had it for going on 20 years
Miles- 62years worth???
Paint can be customized to your team color or other liking with a couple cans from Fleet Farm!
Great conversation piece/ lawn ornament!! The miss’s will love it!
Starts and runs, drives, the head was rebuilt about 5 years ago.
It has the original straight six engine.
I can’t tell you much more about it so please don’t email with a bunch of questions, just call or text to set an appointment to look at it, if interested.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000
One runs and one doesn’t.
“I have a 1946 willys jeep and a 1948. Original flathead 4cylinder motor in both..the 48 is a good parts jeep can be sold as pair or seperate..transfer case is out of the 48 but runs good..no title..”
UPDATE: Status Unknown
This is part of an estate sale. It looks in good shape.
“Collectors will chomp at the bits for this truck. 1951 Willys Overland CJ3A Amazing original survivor. Excellent condition in all original state. This is a running driver with all available options. Well patina in all aspects- needs nothing but wash and shine. Engine is all original 75 HP OHV 4 cylinder in excellent running condition. Only 78,400 original miles. Original owners manual in glove box. Estate Sale Taking Bids So Make Offer.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
This runs and has no title.
“Took this on a trade out of curiosity mostly, but I simply do not have the time to restore it right now. I was told it was a ’46, but I do NOT have a title or any papers on it. We had it running and driving on a boat fuel pump/tank (not included) a few months ago–it definitely needs a carb rebuild, but it ran surprisingly well. It is currently not running. The body/original fuel tank/seats are shot, but the frame and drivetrain appear to be solid. Again I do NOT have a title, but i’ll write you a bill of sale. You will need a trailer and a way to load it–it is currently sitting in my barn. I also have a new alternator and oil lines for it that I will include. I am NOT interested in trades”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
There are two CJ-5s plus a rollling chassis.
“Up for sale is 1960 Willy’s jeep with plow and a pile of parts.
Save your back next winter great for the hunting camp or around the farm.
This blue jeep starts ,stops, runs good will push snow like a tractor.
Included in this package deal is another jeep green power train is intact engine is stuck.
A frame plow and power train from a wagon engine will turn over and would go in the green jeep.
This package should keep you up and running for years.
Yes there is rust on them but can be restored after all these are from the 60’s.”
This might be worth a look.
“All original. Have soft top that has been is storage. Great hunting and farm vehicle. Just needs the right owner to get her going.”

The tires sure aren’t any good.

“1946 CJ2A Jeep for sale that has been restored and brought back to life. All original except electrical is now 12 volt, back seat, grab bar and rear lights. The jeep was inspected last year and runs good. Two boxes of used and new extra parts included. Only serious inquiries please. $5,500 or BRO.”
The front bumper sure is odd.
“This is a great project that is close to being complete.”

UPDATE: The price has dropped to $5000 and the jeeps’ been cleaned up since it was last listed.
(07/31/2012) “Asking $5000 OBO. I’ll entertain trade offers on anything of equal value. Needing a 60 gal air compressor and media blast and welding equipment (no arc stick welders).
I have a 1951 Willys M38 that is 90% road ready.
The Willys needs an oil line to the oil filter bath unit replaced (I’m planning on replacing it next weekend) and a battery to run – that’s it.
The front passenger side tire has a slow leak – I haven’t bothered to find the source yet as I’m working on it in my garage and hasn’t bothered me.
There is some painted-over rust / rot in the passenger side floorboard and the tool storage box under the passenger side seat.
The windshield is cracked but you can get a new one for less than $150.
The trailer is road ready and the tires are in great shape. I just pulled it 30+ miles with a Nissan Pathfinder and it pulled perfectly.
Some of the wood rail sections could be replaced but they are solid. I don’t have the canvas.
There is some rust but most is just scale. There are a few rust / rot spots that could use repair but nothing major and you can easily use it as it sits.
The lights look to be aftermarket replacements. They don’t work but I think it’s just the ground wire. I’ll look into it this weekend too.
This was designed for a deuce and a half truck but if you flip the pintle on the trailer you can lower the tongue height by as much as twelve inches and pull it all day with the M38.”

UPDATE: Price back to $4000
