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: **SOLD** Was $1600.
(11/28/2011) This has no motor. It appears to be a Military CJ-3B.
“The CJ3B page has a description of the Military version of a CJ3B, it says this one is the “Rare” Army version, whether it is or not I don’t know but it is in pretty good shape for being a 1964. Has the Koenig top but no doors, no motor but I do have a rebuildable one sitting out back. Will trade for a civilian CJ3B with a super good body even if I end up paying you money. Otherwise I need the $1600″

Blaine took these pictures of Bob’s CJ-2A at last year’s FC Roundup. Looks great! He says the details are very nice.
These three photos of a girl riding an amusement park carousel were for sale on eBay at different times.

The rollbar is funky, but the rest of the jeep looks good.
“This is a very nice 1948 Jeep Cj-2A restored in military configuration. The Jeep always starts right up and runs great. It is in excellent condition. I have used it for many years to run up and down the hill at my boating cabin. I have thrown a lot of stuff in the bed and you can see some old blue paint through scratches. It is very rust free an has excellent floor pans. It has newer military tires that look great. I have clean title. Absolutely no trades, please don’t ask!”
This doesn’t appear to be a VEEP, but a custom VW project.
“yes a VW Veep it is a Volkswagen front end, bus transaxle, with a 1776 engine on a factory built custom tube frame. it has a 1943 Willys / jeep body.
it has a bikini top. it runs great chrome rims w/ new tires ready to drive. could use some new paint, but not for having fun, its ready for that Call Barry then drive it home. @ 928 242 9837”

It has black wheels and is a light red in color. There are different men’s faces in both the driver’s and passenger windows. It is in good, used vintage condition with a little rust on the wheels.”
The seller turned this into a M-606 clone.
“This is a CJ3B/M606 clone. This unit ran so fine that I cnverted it to my militay hobby of Jeeps. All parts replaced are new, including the wiring harness and any needed parts. The milage is unknown and I installed all new spedometer and guages. Everything is as close as possible to the original military version.
New brakes, Steering wheel, guages, lights, clutch, etc. Too many items to list. Feel free to contact me for details. A vintage military radio of the Korean war era will be a gift as is, if desired. Due to my health (Viet Nam injuries) I have not fully completed this project, although it is now street legal to drive. located morristown tennesee”

“Hello-
I have an amazing little Willys Jeep for sale.
It belonged to my father and we converted it to 12 V and I drove it for a summer. Then it went into storage for about 15 years. It was in a covered garage. It will not start at this time but I believe it will run again with minimal work. I replaced the front shocks and I put a new tow-bar on it. It needs new springs – it’s a little crooked. I have planned to fix it and drive it for 3 years now but I have finally come to the realization that I don’t have time and it will not happen. It is currently in my moms garage and she wants the space back so it’s time to pass it on to someone else….
Please e-mail me with any questions and I will answer them to the best of my knowledge.
Here are a few photos, I can also e-mail you more.
Thanks”
The seller refers to the wagon as a ‘panel’, so this is either not a panel wagon or it might be a Parkway Conversion Panel. Can anyone clarify that? Frank pointed out the truck might be a Tender.
“I have 2 Willy’s Jeeps for sale 1 is a 57 pick-up and the other is a 58 Panel, Both run but each has it’s own issue’s…They both have the flat head 6, the panel motor purrs like a kitten…The panel body is in excellent shape the floor is in great condition and it has the PTO ..The pick-up runs and is driveable ..But I was goin to use it for parts for the panel I can explain the reason’s for this ..I am selling them as a pair … will not split them up …I don’t have a shop to work on them and Would like to get them to somebody that has the means to do with what is needed ..for additional information give me a call 208-410-7676…Scott”

Blaine forwarded this picture of this jeep from the Arizona Wing of the Commemorative Air Force at Falcon Field in Mesa, Az. Since Ann and I will be staying in Mesa and will be down there a couple days before this year’s FC Roundup, we plan to visit the museum.
Unfortunately, upon closer inspection, this is a mix of CJ-3A and M-38 parts. Once again, the reason for a jeep museum. Hopefully, the airplanes are more accurate. Looks like I need to schedule a meeting with the curator.
