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: Will commented below that this battery can be mounted in pretty much any angle.
Jeep looks good. I’ve never seen a sideways mounted battery like that?? Anyone has exsperience with that?

“Asking my 53 Willy’s cj3B it’s an older restoration ,Buick v6, lifted w/BF Goodrich 33×10.50R $8500.00 Layton,Utah”
Listed as a 1941, this lacks the correct grill, but appears to have an MB frame. It also appears to have GPW tool lids. There is no glove box. This might be a compilation of parts? Note that the hubs are stamped “Allstate” and likely are rebranded Husky hubs. Also, the tires are branded “Allstate”.

Rough body. Column shift.

“For Sale. 1946 Willys CJ2A. Located in Muscoda, Wisconsin 53573. $2,500. Ran and drove last year. Driver side and passenger side floors, and tool box are rusted out. Brakes are out, but has new shoes and hard brake lines, but probably needs new soft lines. Windshield has plexiglas bolted in. Column shift. Converted to 12 volt. This was my fathers farm Jeep. I have the clear title in my name.”
It sounds like this went through a flood. Seller lost his house. Most pics show this in progress, but the initial pic shows it together. So, I’m not sure how complete this is.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1219253312412891
“Lost home in flood. Must sell. Professionally rebuilt motor wason engine lift an wasn’t underwater. Off frame restoration project. Health an now flood issues forcing me to sell. Clear FL title matching vin numbers. Professionally rebuilt original motor all other parts are original. Radiator redone by radiator shop have several new parts still in packages. Complete Novak transfer case rebuid kit. Grill, hood, tailgate, fenders in good condition tub in poor condition”
Unclear how much value is here. Body appears rough.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1233526587772414
“Willys CJ3a. Tub is in rough shape, but grill, windshield frame, frame, and axles are all in good shape. Has seat frames. Hood is pretty straight but had a cut made in the side of it; however, it’s easily repairable. I do have a NJ title to go with it for a 1947. Engine is locked up. Open to reasonable offers. Located in Whippany.”
This has a PTO and winch. Maybe has some parts value?
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/547925297592091/
“This would make a great restoration project. 4×4 Willy’s wagon. With pto winch. Mostly original. Has title.”
This project has had some body work, as the drain holes near the steps appear filled.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1703141190540012

“1944 MB willys jeep Runs and drives.”
Includes a Warn Overdrive.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1531094994179550
“CJ2A Warren overdrive even though it’s older it’s still very cool. Come pick me up for $800”
I’ve missed out on some updates, but for good reason. Our annual family gathering is this weekend, so I’ve been spending, literally, the last few weeks cleaning, organizing and straightening up various parts of the property, including creating a new parking spot for the motorhome.
So, updates will be limited, but I know there are a few readers who will be sending me some items for sale and I’ll get them up as I get a chance.
Meanwhile, I picked up a few more “folk art” jeeps on the cheap from eBay. This one is about 7″ long. It’s missing one roll bar, but who cares. Someone spend some time building this oddity (shown next to a small Surrey for comparison).
I just purchased these two odd ball model jeeps for cheap. I’ll update the post with better picks once I received them.
This early sign just sold at auction for $12,000.
“Scarce Multi-piece SSP (single sided porcelain) signs mounted back to back on the original can have good color and moderate gloss. The display field has small chips with areas of discoloration and lower gloss. The perimeter has small bends, chips and additional discoloration. The reverse is similar with additional chips in the field. The factory can is in good condition with general age-related wear. Marked Ark. Sign & Neon Co. Overall a scarce complete Willys Jeep Vertical porcelain neon sign. 155″ H x 42″ W x 14.25″ D. Condition: 7.75/7.25.”
Shuan is selling his updated 3B. Looks like a nice rig with a replacement body, so the body should be in good shape.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/372835312432493
“Vortech V6 4.3 L, T350 automatic transmission, Dana 30 Dana 44 axles four wheel power disc brakes, Dana 20 transfer case, power steering, new Edelbrock four barrel carburetor, new starter, camo wrap, 33 x 12 50 tires on aluminum mags, Tilt steering, Rough country 2 1/2 inch spring lift kit, 2 inch body lift. Corbeau bucket seats with four-point harnesses. Includes a well used tiger top with doors and a backseat. Interior of the tub is Line X as well as the fender wells. This is a quite capable offroader ready to go for you!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $350. This was listed in Loganville, GA, in January of 2024. The price is dropped and is now for sale in Batesville, MS. It looks like the 305 engine was removed, hence the lower price. Thanks to Brad for updating us.
This body appears to be a Parkette style body (with the site swooshes) with a Bobcat type hood, but assembled together as a single drag-like body.
“Has a Ford 9” rear end on it. Pretty heavy so good scrap. I do have a forklift to load on trailer.”
===============================
Ad from Jan 5, 2024, in Loganville:

Bill shared this article about a vintage jeep collector in Georgia from last April. The author overuses the “GP” term a little bit too much for my tastes, but the general message is that owner Dane Schoff is having a good time with his jeeps!

“This is a vintage FC170 Jeep promotional ashtray. Jeep is in a fixed position. Chrome is in good condition with minor wear. A few blemishes on the underside. See photos.”
Bill shared this stock CJ-5 with original paint. It’s hard to believe it’s got 75k miles.
https://indianapolis.craigslist.org/cto/d/noblesville-1973-jeep-cj-with-meyer/7784097280.html
“Selling a 1973 Jeep CJ-5, very original including paint, excellent body and frame, Jeep is from Alabama, smooth running 232 inline 6, 3-speed, 4 wheel drive, manual lock-outs, gun rack, runs and drives great, 75,440 miles, clean and clear title in my name in hand.”
UPDATE: This was for sale in Fresno. It is now for sale in Sisters, Oregon. I suspect the seller is a new owner and is now reselling it, given the limited description. Note that the plates in the pics from the 2023 ad and present ad are the same.

“Killer old 51 Willys custom. 327 w/turbo 400 auto trans. Runs great.”
==========================
(Previous comments, description and pics from 10/2023): This is a classic Fresno-area build with the oversize glass in the windshield, the doors, and more. It may include a soft top. I see no evidence it includes a Muller top.

SBC 350, Turbo 400, Spicer 18 transfer case, Warn overdrive 25%,
Dana 30 front, fresh Dana 44 rear

You don’t see many like this one for sale. Odometer just rolled over last week, perfect starting point for the new owner”
The price works out to be about $18,400 USD. Bill shared this nice looking Canadian M-38A1. I’m not sure what it would cost to import into the US.
