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 .

Here’s a rare letter that advertises woodie kits from Station Wagons, Inc, for CJ-2A and MB/GPW models. This 2 page letter shows both a full and a half cab. Below the two page letter is an example of an ad that appeared in Popular Mechanics.
Popular Mechanics Ad from the January 1948 issue of Popular Mechanics, pg 266. This ad appeared in the February 1948 issue as well. I haven’t done a full accounting to determine how many other issues had the ad.
Here’s an add from the 1947 issue of Time Magazine showing two different jeeps involved with airplanes. There is a reference to National Skyway Freight Corp and the “Flying Tigers”.

Here’s an unusual jeep attachment. Anyone ever see one in person?

This is a true ‘shed’ find.
“1947 CJ2A JEEP … This old boy has been “shedded” indoors for 32 years.
All Original Parts, Right Off the Farm/Ranch. A Project In Waiting!
I bought it at an auction ( north of Chinook, Montana) because the body was sound and all the parts, except the seats, were there . I thought that I needed it to restore my own 1947, making one whole jeep out of two. That project never got a good start. The body has been welded on in places, the soft top is there, including the doors, but the plastic windows are all clouded. The four tires are old ( with tubes) and there is some damage on the inside rear fender wells that can be straightened out with a porta-pack. Having not run for 32+ years, it is a project/restore job for someone, and it’s prices accordingly! I have other pictures … by request. Thank you.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500
This is worth a look. It includes a rear PTO.
“Collectors!!! Antique 1951 CJ3A Willys Jeep. Only 44,158 manfactured. Model # 451 GB1. Serial # 23329. 131,843 miles on odometer. Have not run it for 5 years and needs brakes. See pictures for body condition. Cash Only deal.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000.
That sure looks like a replacement body to me. It just looks too perfect as compared to the other body parts. I could be wrong though . . .
“it has 5600 original miles..its all original”
Dan spotted this ‘storage’ find.

Those terra tires certainly give the jeep a classic feel. It looks in good shape.
“1952 Willys Jeep CJ3A “All Steel” Chev 350 V8 engine conversion ( mid 70’s Z28/ Vette engine) 3 speed 4X4, Lock out hubs, Classic off road tires. Frame is perfect. You can eat off the underside of this jeep (Not a rust bucket) diamond tufted seats, roll bar etc. Rides and Drives Not been beat, only for the young at heart…if it had wings it would fly.. Would not take much to take it to the 10,000-15,000 dollar figure. If you want a flatfender, all metal, V8 . this is your jeep to have.
Serious buyers only, no scams, no free rides, possibly trade for a “rust free” 90’s Wrangler 6cyl must be near perfect “PRICE IS FIRM”
Not sure if there is much value here.
“No title good frame decent body needs engine could be good restoration project for the right person.

This appears in good shape. I’m not sure what the black thing is above the step. The step looks like it has been modified.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $125.
I have no idea what the value of a Newgren frame is. The seller has a pump, too.
“I have the frame for a Newgren lift used on Willys jeeps till the 1970’s. It is the frame that bolts to the frame of the Jeep. I don’t have the lift arms but I do have a hydraulic pump that will work with it.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $300.
This looks pretty complete for a $300 jeep. There must be something good on it?? gotta love the hood scoop on this one.
“bought it from an old farmer so it wouldnt go to the scrap yard. Not running and motor is not orginal.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
This is advertised as a 1942, but I think it is probably a CJ-2A.
“A 1942 Willys Jeep. Lift kit, Good tires. front end has winch, new hard top, luggage rack on back.
It has a 1991 v6 engine.”
This has the widest backseat I’ve ver seen. The battery is installed just behind the front bumper.

This appears to be missing the support bars. It also doesn’t have the spare wheel carrier that some have. It’s a great price though.
“This is a bed extender for made for Willys CJ5 Jeeps (55-65models???) ”
This has some wagon/truck fenders. How about that hood scoop?
“DOES have clean title
All complete jeep project
it does run and drive but the brakes need help
comes with spare carburetor and rebuild kit and wheel cylinder
maybe open to trades… don’t text me asking if I’m willing to trade send me pictures of what you have
