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 has some dings and dents and needs paint; however, the interior appears in good shape.

How about that paint job? It will need wipers and mufflers. It has an updated drive train.
“I have a 1952 Willys Wagon up for sale truck is in good shape not great but has older restoration and very VERY little rust. Truck has a few minor things wrong, needs new wiper blades and new wiper motor not expensive, also does not have original engine but runs on a 1980 gm 231 v6 rwd and is linked to a turbo 350 auto 3 spd tranny. truck runs and drives great has no power steering of course due to age and no seat belts so is not recomended for a new or unexperienced driver. truck has great frame, tires, suspension and all hardware. original wood floors in rear, passenger door only opens from inside but is an easy fix. truck only needs glasspacks for exhaust and wiper blades/wiper motor to pass inspection. this willys is a dealer modify which means that in 1952 when shipped to the dealer it had no windows in the side but had them installed at the dealer in 52 also has the double swing doors in rear a rare option only offered on panel wagons if interested or want to see/drive please call at 814-367-2172 or email at steven_foster69 @hotmail.com ask for steve”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500. This could have a Porter & Reed hardtop.
“This is a 1948 Willys Jeep. It is my grandfathers jeep, and is in great condition. It is parade ready. The tires and brakes are good and the engine runs fine, and has a heater inside of the cab. Its a great vehicle to drive around the farm, go fishing in, and showing off in town. The cab is obviously not origional, but in good condition and has its advantages. Great for any veteran or anyone who has great respect and passion for this era, as my grandfather does.”
No pics provided.
“a 1950 willys overland 4 w.d pick up with a olive drab green.”
Runs and drives, just needs to learn to stop.

The jeep runs. Seller will throw in extra body, welder and welding supplies.
“I have a cj5 project that needs to go because I am moving and can’t take it with me. It is running but needs some serious rust repair. I have another body tub and parts to fix the jeep. I have just run out of time. The engine is a F134 4 cylinder engine that fires right up. This would be an excellent project for this winter. The set of 5, 31″ Bridgestone Dueller A/Ts are close to brand new and would cost you $780 bucks alone. Again there are many spare parts. Come out and take this fun project home with you. I might consider trade as well, let me know what you have, I am interested in firearms and possibly a running 4 wheel drive vehicle I can give to my parents for winter use. I also have a welder, helmet, welding rods and angle grinder to toss in so that you can get this thing on the road. I have a clean title in my name ready to sign over.”

So, technically this isn’t a Jeep, but it is kinda of SEEP-like and the folks over at Jalopnik called it a Jeep, so I figured I’d post a couple pics of it. Also, I checked out the website www.boatcar.net and that site has several different SEEP-like vehicles.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000
This is engineless.
“This is the rarer GPW Ford built version. Ready for restoration, no engine.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3200.
This looks solid.
“This is a 1951 Willys Truck. It has a 1973 350 vette engine in it. it is a drivable, but would recommend towing long distances as the gearing is not meant for highway speeds. if your interested give me a call or txt.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.

Technically, the first year of production on civilian jeeps was 1945. This CJ sounds like it has an interesting history.
“This is the Original Grand Daddy of all Civilian Jeeps- the Willy’s CJ2a is the first model year of the post WWII civilian market run. This is a very rare collector’s item. This is unit # 70007. She is in excellent shape. This one was kept in a Detroit Show Room for over 25 years prior to being in storage for 10 years. When the dealer passed away his estate sold off all assets and that is how we found her, 5 years ago. We have the original Magazine Adds from Time Magazine, July 15, 1946.”
As part of his CJ-3A restoration Nate left his unique mark on his build with a variety of creative solutions. You’ll enjoy these.
1. “I mounted my body with hockey pucks and valve springs. I did this to my offroad beater too, and they seem to work quite well.”
2. “I made some doors on my harrison heater to get some more heat to the driver’s side.”
3. “I made a removable jerry can holder that bolts to the rear draw bar. This works really well. I carry about 3 gallons in it, and haven’t had any problems.”
4. “To put turn signals in the 3A grille, I made 8 of these spacers (4 per side) to space out the lens to fit the bigger bulb.”
5. “Instead of having a switch on the dash to turn the reverse light on, I made this bracket with a push switch (one that doesn’t click and locks in the “on” position) to turn it on. The plunger is what activates it. This is a really handy mod.”
It is winter time and that means only one thing: time for the Wandering Willys Jeep Club to complete their annual Winter run over the Naches Trail in search of Fish & Chips (You might remember their 2009 trip report here). The restaurant of choice was a local favorite called Gold Creek Station Restaurant.
I’ve snagged a few pics from their website. You can see pics of the entire trip here.
Of course, you gotta have the initial line up …
UPDATE: Brett pointed out there are some tool indents on the side — I gotta agree, so this is probably a 2A of some vintage.
The price looks good.
“Runs great, very old school, superswampers, lifted, Novak Adapted Xfercase and Transmission, 305V8, I drive this to work at the academy 12 months out of the year.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000
This appears in good shape.
“Good condition. Tow Bar – trailer hitch – back seat with storage area – seat belts – new battery.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500
The seller of the body has thrown in a running CJ-3A for combo price of $2500. I have to say, I’d really like this combo. I think that’s a good price.
“1952 jeep. runs and drives.comes with new fiberglass body. $2500.00 or maybe make an offer? teach the kids how to drive.family resto project,who knows”
