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 .
Marc spotted this unsual DJ-3A. The back has been extended and the dash contains a glovebox, but otherwise there’s lots of DJ-3A elements here. I didn’t know there were DJ-3A ambulances. Anyone ever seen one?
“Fully equipped DJ3A ambulance, well restored over the past years, very good technical condition, new tyres, good condition canvas softtop, etc…”

I didn’t realize how many DJ models came with the inline 6. Apparently, that’s the reason for the bumped out hood in front.
“1978 Jeep DJ5-F. This is a retired United States Postal service Jeep so it is right hand drive. Has inline 6 cylinder, Automatic Transmission, aftermarket cab heater, runs and drives (but will need tune-up and carburetor clean/rebuild) Will have to taken away on trailer due to running rough, expired tabs, no insurance and right turnsignal isn’t working. I bought this as a project vehicle but have not time to fix it up. I have put over $1000 in parts into the vehicle already. Has new tires, new wheels, new front shocks, newer battery and a new muffler just to mention the big purchases. Odometer only goes up to 99,999, therefor I have no idea how many miles it truly has. Any questions please contact me by call or text at 715-205-8068”

This has some full floaters in the rear and lockers throughout. It’s rough, but might be worth a look.

This is a parts jeep.
“47 WILLYS CJ CJ2A JEEP Rolling chassis , comes with bell housing , Dana 18 transfer case and T90 transmission , condition unknown but these are solid setups , and all the rebuild parts a readily available from Omix-Ada . sold w bill, of sale but the frame tag with vin number is there so ITS Title can provide a title. This rig has both front and rear axles and drive shafts. Both pedal linkages are still there, body in great shape with very little rust. correct 16″ jeep wheels and tires, comes with both a bare CJ2A windshield frame and a CJ3A frame that needs repair, The seats are missing but the tank and original oil bath air filter are there. Drop in a small block chevy or a v6! Gauges and lots of other often missing parts are there too! I could part out but think its a fun project worth saving! funky ultra rare Fiat Abarth tail lights from Italy , where they came from who knows!”
This lacks glass and a bumper at the very least.
“I have a 1951 M38 Willys Jeep up for(Sale) or (Trade)-($4800). It was painted with real military paint about two years ago. With the famous U.S star on the hood and the white walled tires it truly takes you back in time. It starts and idles good could use a quick carb clean. Other than that it runs great, especially switching within the high&low, and also 4X4 with just a quick movement of the levelers.”

<– Day 2 Sun. May 5th: Cowboys, Vistas, and Pirates | Trip Overview | Day 5 – Wed. May 8th: Don’s 1962 Wagon and Mr. Jangles –>
On Monday May 6th we drove east on I-94 from Theodore Roosevelt National Park to Bismarck, North Dakota.
We spent two days visiting a family that used to live across the street from Ann Pasco.
On Tuesday evening, we left Bismarck to spend the night in Fargo, North Dakota.
By the time we arrived in Fargo it was dark and cold. We toured the town very briefly (learning years later we missed downtown entirely).
On the morning of May 8th, we left Fargo for St. Paul.

George forwarded this blog post about the Chang 46. It started production in 1959 and ended in 1963. There weren’t many made. They started with 38 in 1959 and by 1963 only 1390 were produced.

Marc spotted this interesting photo.
“San Francisco Car wreck photograph / 1947 Willy jeep on it’s side

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was listed at $20,000.
“Original owner ordered it from the Toledo factory. Stored in a heated garage since day 1. 14,000 original miles. Probably the best example of a original CJ6 survivor. Paint still shines like new. Under the hood is near perfect. Original vinyl top windows are crystal clear. Maintained by local Jeep dealer. Still wears the original Goodyear Suburbanite tires it left the factory with. The seat covers are like new. It has been featured in our 2008 Jeep Classics Calendar and Vintage Truck Magazine.
It has a factory installed Ramsey winch on the front, wheel well cushions as well as a backseat and CB radio. The original owner had an ambulance service. This was his offroad ambulance and the 53 was its fleet number. He would make a run with it, bring it back and wash it down, back it into the garage and cover it up.
The pictures don’t do it justice. The paint is as shiney as the day it rolled off the line.”

“MANY MORE PHOTOS can seen here on an external website. (Can’t be posted here on Craigslist. Email and I will send you the link)
For sale is a Willys-Overland 1947 CJ2A fully restored frame up, with original L-134 flat head motor. Engine serial #J98994, frame serial #96785. Tub is a repli-tub purchased direct from willys=Overland, but we have the original tub serial #CJ-2a 96785 data plate that goes with the vehicle to the new owner.
Restoration completed 2000-2001 by experienced vintage car restorer, and it has been garaged indoors ever since. Has only been driven for about 400 miles since the restoration. Painted pasture green to match original paint. New canvas on seats. No top bows. Converted to 12v system, with original rebuilt starter still in operation. Have the original 6v parts if someone wants to convert back. Also have 2 spare carbs and misc parts.
This Willys is very solid and sound, there are no problems mechanically or otherwise. Ready to drive, parade, park, hunt, or whatever. Starts right up without any hesitation every time. Selctro hubs. 4 wheel drive works smooth and easy.
This vehicle will go anywhere, climb anything, and do just about anything! Speedometer works, but probably needs a little calibrating. Gas gauge works sometimes, well, most of the time, but there is an alternate gas gauge included in the sale (24″ wooden dip stick, never lies and doesnt need calibrating).
Tires are new NDT 700-15 (non-direction tread) purchased from Coker Tire with about 400 miles of use, plus matching rubber for spare tire (no rim).
All major parts are original, the grill, hood, fenders, and windshield (new glass and seals) are all original and completely restored.
Currently licensed in OR with Oregon Antique Vehicle plates. Frame, and serial number data plate match.”
