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 .
UPDATE: Was $3000. **Status Unknown**
This looks solid. It is at four different colors: blue, black, red, and green.
“For Sale 1949 willys jeep… 1959 volvo motor runs great. Body good condition. Street legal.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
It’s got matching numbers, but needs work. No title.
“At this point I’m not finding the time to restore GPW 266079 DOD 4-21-45. I’m in Woodland Hills. It’s matching number engine frame and dataplate. Has 5 combat rims, back seat and a few other goodies. There may be an item or two I haven’t taken pictures of a few things such as gastank, spare gas can holder and other parts that go with the GPW. Has a T-90 installed and you can see in the one picture of the skid plate that they dropped the tranny down rather completely cutting up the cowl. I have a complete GPW T-84 tranny and transfer case that goes with sale. There is no title as it came off a ranch in Colorado, so only bill of sale.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200
“Solid CJ3a that has had the floors replaced so no rust. All stock except for f-head motor that is siezed. Have title and collector plates so no more tabs. Excellent start for someone as a complete project. Open to trades, firearms, silver dollars and cash.”
This looks solid.
“1952 Willys Jeep- Original owner good condition, stored inside and no rust.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
(09/19/2012) This looks so sad and lonely.
“For sale one 1946 Willys Jeep CJ2A for parts or restoration. This jeep has all original drivetrain parts and most body parts, althought it is in kinda rough shape.
Asking $500 obo. please contact me if you have any questions or are intrested,”
UPDATE: This sold. The new owner is looking for parts.
This has a CJ-2A engine. It also has an CJ-3A windshield. There is some rust in the jockey box floor. There are no data plates, so the title number matches nothing.
This might be in good shape given where appears to be stored.
“For Sale is a Running 1946 Willy’s jeep runs, drives, new rubber and battery. Great project car. For more information or pictures email, call or text seven 0 one seven 4 1 seven 0 six eight”

The fuel inlet looks like a custom installation.
“1942 jeep in good condition V8 289 new tires & brakes”

Be on the look out for a can of black spray paint gone wild.
“THIS IS A GOOD CONDITION 1955 WILLYS HIGH HOOD JEEP. SERIAL NUMBER 57348 I AM NOT SURE IF IT WAS EVER MILITARY OR NOT, PROBABLY NOT. THE JEEP RUNS AND DRIVES STRONG AND SMOOTH.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6900
(08/28/2012) This looks good. It doesn’t have the original block.
“1951 M38; while NOT restored this jeep is very solid; its been converted to 12 volt; has new steel tub; starts easy and runs well. Some parts such as seats not authentic. More photos available. Selling to buy a different military vehicle and hope it goes to a good home! $6,900. ”
Besides being lifted, the entrance area has been trimmed down.
“1947 Willys Jeep with original engine, transmission, transfer case, and axles. Jeep runs great and both high and low 4×4 works. Then engine does smoke a little bit, but no more than to be expected for ’47. This jeep will go anywhere a four wheeler will go. Has lockers in front and rear. Although there is no title.

UPDATE: Well, I purchased this coloring book last month. Let me save you all some money by telling you that the only jeep in the entire book is the one on the front cover (and that one is obviously already colored)!! Oh well . . .
(08/14/2012) The “Johnny Jeep Coloring Book” from the Merrill Publishing Company #3457 . Copyright 1943. Cover art by Schumacher. It measures 8 /2″ by 11″ and has 48 pages to color.”
Since these are being sold from Norway, they may have originally been made there. They sure are unusual.
“12 jeeps orginal box.Not used. Made Europa 1945. Some minor wasted on the soldiers. L= 6 cm on the jeeps.Wery good order.”

The one truck looks real nice and the other looks like it has potential, too.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
“This is a great piece of history that I have owned for 1976 till present day. It is not perfect as the pictures will show but much better than average for its age. It shows about 20000 miles and I believe that to be accurate it has had all the typical rust of an old CJ that I repaired in 1981 and some of it is starting to show in places . It has a great CJ 3A windshield on it and I also have a CJ 2A windshield frame that needs much repair that you can have with it . I have converted it to a 12 volt system for better starting other than that it is mostly original from front to back it has new brakes and rebuilt brake cylinders so the brakes are as good as good as any CJ2A . Their are some holes drilled in the dash for light switches otherwise the dash is as it should be. And the exhaust system is stock and has a fairly new muffler on it as well and the engine will start and run on the coldest of days sometimes when nothing else will start. I hate to let it go but the time has come for someone else to enjoy it.”
