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 not stock and has a few changes, but looks solid.

Steve forwarded this photo of a Mighty Mite at the Chicago Auto Show yesterday.
Coincidently, yesterday Ann’s mother saved part of an episode of Pawn Stars for me to view (Episode called PONY UP from December 2011), which included a man trying to sell a Mighty Mite to the Pawn Stars guys for $22,000. They offered $13,000 (based on their expert’s opinion). Unfortunately, I can’t find a free way to view that episode.

“This extremely well preserved and rare military 4×4 that would be an excellent add to your military or rare vehicle collection. Only 1,045 M422 were produced and it is assumed that only 5% are still in existence. This is a 1960 restored American Motors Mighty Mite M422, serial number 547.
The truck has been 98% restored from the ground up and shows and runs wonderfully.
Vehicle Specific Features-
Complete and restored to original specifications M422
Brand new NOS transmission and transfer case installed
Engine rebuilt
Painted “marine corps green”
Brand New Tires installed
Original rear folding Seats installed on rear fenders
Original Soft-Top in excellent shape
Body and bumpers are straight and all the lifting rings move and work as they should
As far as I know everything is complete and original.
The mighty mite was the first military jeep with posi traction front and rear and with its lightweight 1700 lb. aluminum body seems to go anywhere. Another advantage to the aluminum body is that there is no body rust at all. The frame and other steel components of this truck are all rust free and painted marine corps green. It has an M38 style windshield (as do most M422). This is very rare collector quality vehicle but yet capable as a daily driver or off road play toy.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Price Unknown
Car, Railway Maintenance, Mutigage , 8-Man, 60 HP Gasoline engine Willys Model MB Motor Car / Speedster
If this is not the most unusual and the most rare WWII vehicle I have had the opportunity to sell it is definitely in the top three. It was built for the U.S. Army Transportation Corp by the Kalamazoo Manufacturing Co. Kalamazoo Michigan. It is serial number 5913 USA number M1013 and was delivered January 1945. What makes it interesting to me is they used everything they could from the MB, purchased right from Willys. The engine complete with oil filter, air filter, regulator, battery, bell housing and T-84 transmission and all of the gauges are the same as the MB. They even used the MB fuel tank and radiator. It is 4 wheel drive and that is accomplished through chain drive and a forward-reverse lever which gave three gear speeds in each direction so the transfer case was not needed. When it was found and purchased 5 or 6 years ago, it was still in very good running condition and had never been allowed to set outside. Most of the vehicle is wood and due to inside storage for 60 years 95% of the original wood was saved in the total restoration. You can see in the as purchased photos (yellow trim) how good the wood was, only the side rail boards had to be replaced mainly from being kicked and broken. Before restoration it was used on several Sunday rail trips in the Jackson Ohio area. It will go much faster that you will want to drive it. As you can see from the photos it was professionally and totally disassembled rebuilt, researched for paint scheme and reassembled. With the wood being in such good condition it was easy to sand down to the original colors and markings. It was shown at the 2006 MVPA convention in Dayton Ohio.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

(05/08/2012) I’d like a closer look at the dash and gauges. Maybe the air ride doubles as an emergency/parking brake?

“Up for bid is my CJ3a. I hate to part with it but with 3 kids I just don’t have the time neede to finish it. I have bought many new parts and have put many hours into this. It comes with the original L134 engine. T90 3spd transmition, Dana 25 and 44. It is all original other than the wheels. I am not a mechanic so my goal; was to get the engine 95% and then take it to a mechanic for the last 5% to get it running. I have replaced the following. spark plugs, distributor cap, points, and all to do in the distributor (for a tune up), new plug wires, belts, hoses, fluids, oil canister filter, gas tank, gas line, head light bezels, and much more. It has a few rust spots that I wanted to repair I even have the sheet metal but have not yet had the time. It also comes with a very unique and expensive Koenig Hard Top. You can find these selling for $500-$1000 by themselves. Feel free to ask questions.-Jeff”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500. Could be a Porter & Reed hardtop.
It doesn’t run.
“I’m selling a 1948 Willys Jeep CJ2a with a fully enclosed cab. I have been told the hood has been modified for a newer motor. Great restoration potential. I know it needs brakes & battery. One flat glass pane in rear cab is broken but all other glass intact. 6-volt electrical. front mount PTO winch. It was started about 15 years ago but has sat since. Clear title. Asking $1,500.00 but will consider serious offers. Will need to be moved on a trailer”
This has a PTO and may need some body work.
“1946 Willys. Vehicle has: rebuilt engine, changed to 12Volt, new clutch, radiator, rebuilt rear end, replaced springs, 2″ lift kit, brakes done and work good. Shifts all gears, 2/4 wheel works good and has Warn hubs on front. Steering has usual play which most of it is the Bell crank bushing. Body is not perfect and had floor pans replaced prior to my owning it. Jeep also has PTO take off on transmission. Engine starts easily and maintains excellent oil pressure. New Best Top on vehicle with doors. Jeep has a heater system under dash, not hooked up to water system so I don’t know condition of it. Needs cosmetics for sure! OD green doesn’t do much for it. There is a strong tow bar hook that goes on the front with it. The vin plate numbers on firewall and frame match. Georgia doesn’t issue titles on vehicles prior to 1965. They utilize registration slips which transfer ownership to someone when signed and sold. Was going to fix up and add a snowplow, but I now require something with Automatic shift due to injuries with my hip. The pictures were taken several days ago. Replaced batteries on camera and overlooked setting the date! Sorry about that!”

UPDATE: Price now $2800.
(07/11/2012) This is a CJ-2A body on some later model chassis (maybe CJ-5). The hood was lengthened, among other changes. The front fenders are unusual. This doesn’t run at the moment.
“I am selling a 1947 Jeep Willys. The Jeep was a gift for my graduation, but I just don’t have the time to put into restoring it. This Jeep is the civilian version of the exact vehicle used in WWII. The 1947 is harder to find than most CJ model Jeeps. The engine is a Chevy 305 V8 with an edelbrock carb. The transmission has been switched to automatic. There is surface rust on parts of the vehicle, but could be sanded out with a little work. The vehicle currently needs a battery and rear axle in order to run. I am including a recently purchased rear and front axle in this sale for no extra charge. The gauges and rear tail lights need re-wiring, but front lights and signals work just fine. This Jeep is a lot of fun on the beach and would be a great project for any classis car enthusiast. If you have any questions or would like to see the vehicle, please contact me by phone or email.
I’m looking for a fishing boat. I prefer center console, but would consider other options. The boat needs to be in good shape and include a trailer and motor. Email, call, or text if interested in trading. I do prefer pictures if available.
Thanks for looking. Cell – 336-214-7978”

While appearing solid, this has several inaccurate details, such as the tail gate and the passenger side brackets. The intake hose for the carb is broken and the dash gauge panel has damage.
