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 .
This doesn’t look it too bad of shape.

I’m not sure if “will run” means does run or what it will take to make it run.

Dan continues to make good progress on the reconstruction of his grandfather’s CJ-5. Below, Dan shares both the latest images and images from 20 years ago, with him driving. If you don’t remember the non running, poor condition of the jeep, you can view the early restoration pics here. Thanks Dan and keep going! And, I promise I’ll up there sometime this summer to collect the beer you offered 🙂
This past weekend Pete, from the Old Willys Forum, drove down to the 2nd Annual Willys Moab Rally 2011 put on by Casey Dimmitt. He reports that they had plenty of fun and wished they could stay longer. Pete put this video together (I think to make us all jealous so that we’ll join them next year!). Thanks for sharing Pete, I love that area!
This has a front and rear PTO.
“I have a 1946 cj2a flat fender jeep for sale. It needs a little work, but runs great, and will drive you around town!. The jeep is FULL of rare and sought after parts. The motor is a flat head inline 6 out of a Willys jeepster, which was only offered for two years with this motor “VERY RARE”. T-90 3 speed tranny, Dana 18 t-case w/ a spicer PTO unit front & rear. Dana 44 rear axle with new bearings and seals / Dana 27 front, both axles have the biggest brakes offered for any jeep…11″ drums. Snagsaw steering box, swing pedals, power brakes, line lock for brakes, 6500lbs pto winch. The jeep is sitting on heavy duty springs out of a milltary jeep. Tires are 33″. I have done stuff like installed a new gas tank and boiled out the rad, new oils and seals. I also have some cool extras, ww2 Windsheild frame, brand new in the box wiring harness. The previous owner had the jeep registered NON-OP, but the title is gone however there is a tag on the firewall and came with plates. I called DMV and the told me it would be no big deal just bring them the jeep and new plates could be issued the same day! The body is in good shape, the floors are in great shape.
She runs great and is so fun to drive, you’ll have WWII vets coming out of the woodwork wanting to talk, and thumbs up everywhere.”

How about this unusual top?
“I have for sale a Willys JEEP CJ2A. The jeep is currently titles as a 1972 because it is very hard in my state to get a new title. The original serial number is on the jeep. The jeep is tagged and i have driven it alot on the road. The jeep has always performed very well for me. The body has been patched over the years with new metal, (no bondo that i can see). The frame is in good shape. All the brakes have been replaced, (master cyl., wheel cyl., lines, shoes, ect. ). The wire harness has been updated to 12 volt and all the lights work fine. The 4 wheel drive also works great. The engine runs good and all the gears work fine in the trans. The water pump is new and the starter is rebuilt. I bought this jeep when i retired 5 years ago to pull a wagon with firewood out of the woods, I am older now and find it hard to get in and out of so i bought a tractor instead. This is a really fun little jeep and i hope some one will enjoy it as much as i have. This is a reserve auction and i will not reveal the price. The jeep is being sold “AS IS” with NO WARRANTY”. There is a $500.00 non-refundable deposit required within 48 hrs of end of auction.

“I need to sell my 1965 Jeep CJ5. It’s the Tuxedo Park, Mark IV Edition with 74,000 miles, mostly all original with average wear for it’s age. It has the original four cylinder motor and 3 spd transmission. The Jeep is light blue, and has a black bikini top, a little rust and good body. I can take some pictures of it, but if your interested you probably need to see it anyways. It needs some work on the brakes and steering, but it’s a great 4×4 and lots of fun, I hate to sell it but I have to.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
This runs and drives. The body isn’t perfect, the price looks very good.
“Jeep is in very good condition for it’s age, frame is solid. 4 cylinder engine, 3 speed trans, twin stick transfer case. Runs and drives, 4×4 works good. I use it around the farm almost daily. It does not have a title! It will be sold with a bill of sale only, I have bills of sale from the last 2 owners and I will provide one as well. It needs a front wheel cylinder as it leaks all the brake fluid out.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $10,500.
Here’s a nice wagon with some barn doors.

(05/09/2011) It appears someone took a red jeep and sprayed it over with green (different shades actually as seen on the driver’s side fender). It doesn’t appears there was much prep. I think this looks like a flip job, as just enough was done to re-militarize it.

(10/03/2010) This is listed as a 1949, but I am leaning towards that being a DJ body. That looks like a good price.
“good body & floor. ”
UPDATE: This is back on eBay
(12/21/2010) This flattie has appeared in a variety of four wheel articles. Lots of links below.
“I am selling my super clean 1951 Willys CJ-3A, which has been featured in several articles in Four Wheeler magazine as Project Colonel Mustard. I wish I could keep it, but life changes dictate that I sell it. The serial number on the Willys is 451GB110046 and I am the fourth owner. This is an AS IS sale and the Jeep has a clean California title.
This Flattie was restored in 1997 and is rust free. It has an L134 flat head and T-90 3-speed transmission with an Advanced Adapter Saturn overdrive. The stock Dana 25 front and Dana 41 rear axles have mechanical lockers. The shocks are CJ-5 Bilsteins that work with the 2-in lift springs from Deaver Spring. The rear of the tub has been Line-Xed, and wheels are custom 15-inch Stockton units that have been powder coated black and the tires are 30×9.5R15 BFGoodrich Mud-Terrains. We have also completed an 11-inch non-assist drum brake conversion at all four corners. Steering is new and tight and braking performance is strong and straight. On the front bumper is a Warn 8274 winch. An Optima yellow top battery is under hood, along with a billet optical distributor and 12-volt conversion that uses the stock starter (rebuilt last year). A custom rear tire carrier moves the spare to the tailgate. This Jeep has a reinforced Smittybilt roll bar and seatbelts out of a YJ for all four positions. Also added is a Tuffy center console and 12v power point on the dash.
I recently rebuilt the carb and the Jeep starts right away every time and runs strong. It will reach speeds faster than 55mph if there is enough room to get there. It is a great weekend runabout and it has been wheeling in the So Cal desert, as well as the slick rock of Moab.
I have many of the original parts, including the original points and distributor and generator, along with the rear drawbar hitch. Also have manual and books. All of this comes with the purchase. The Power Tank and Hi-Lift jack are NOT part of the sale.
Here are some of the articles that have appeared in Four Wheeler magazine:
