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 .
There have been a few changes. I can’t tell if this is a CJ-2A or CJ-3A.
“1948 Willys Jeep for Sale. In good shape considering how old it is. Runs, but needs fuel lines cleaned.”
http://littlerock.craigslist.org/cto/1965403563.html
This sure looks straight and solid. This appears perfect for a restoration if the underside is solid.
“Hard to find 1946 Willys Civilian Jeep with LOW miles – only 36,000 actual, original miles! Clean body. Needs windshield post for full restoration. Runs and drives. Good brakes, new battery. 4 cylinder, 3 speed. This is a rare vehicle and won’t last long. Would make a great restoration project!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
“As seen in photos, one complete Jeep with snow plow – title number BB25049. Purchased this Jeep from a local man who said it came from PA State Road of Turnpike. As you can see in the pictures, it is mostly complete. What I can see that is missing is the top radiator hose and oil breather, tube and can. It has dual defrosters, heater, radio and spotlight.The snow plow has a tag that reads Scheneker Iron Works Serial Number 8740 Model B. PLow is in decent shape for age, not bent. All hydrolics appear to be intact and complete. This Jeep is a perfect project vehicle for restoration.
The pictures also show a Jeep frame that I started as a project, the frame was sandblasted, repainted with Eastwood primer and chasis paint. All bearings were repacked or replaced. All new seals (front seal leaks, have not had a chance to look at it). New brake lines and master cylinder, shocks and spring shackles. Tires are new but have some sidewall cracking. I put all new tubes in them. It has a little surface rust from sitting out the past several months on the areas that are not painted. The tub that came off the frame has had all sheet metal replaced, it is ready for sandblasting and a little body work, then painting. The photos show rust but this is from the replacement metal not being painted. The motor and trans are on the skid in the photos. It did run when I started the project 3 years ago. It was clean but has some surface rust. The Vin # s BC51837 (with title).
The other 2 Jeeps shown are parts Jeeps, no titles. I can’t begin to list what I have taken off or what’s left, it was used on my project. Email with questions. There is also a skid with extra parts, some useable some not.
The Bantam Trailer, Vin # T3C362 (with title). I have original VIN plate, it is not on the trailer so no photo taken of it. It has had the floor replaced and the front part of the trailer (about 4″ up) has been replaced. Photo shows surface rust, just needs sandblasted. Tires are original will need replaced.
I had started restoring this Jeep 3 years ago but I’m running out of time and space and have moved on to other projects and need my shop back. Any questions, please email or call (304) 283-6787.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** $7500
(09/07/2010) Looks solid, though it is missing a couple items on the dash.
“Jeep in very good condition. runs great. converted to 12 volt from 6 volt. have old parts. transmission rebuilt 3 yrs. ago leaks a little from seal.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000
(08/22/2010) Rick is selling his CJ-2A. It looks like a solid runner with some good updates.
“231 V6 AMC (Similar to Buick V6); 4 Speed with External OD; New Soft Top; Extra Stock Wheels and Tires; Gas Tank Rack; Spare Tire; Winch; Full Roll Cage; 4 Core Alluminum Radiator; Converted to 12V.”
This looks pretty good.
“I absolutely hate listing my Jeep, logic and finances dictate however. I recently moved and now have nearly a one hundred mile commute… daily. I would like to offer my Jeep as a trade for a NICE family friendly, fuel efficient vehicle. I would like an AWD wagon (i.e. Outback or something similar), or a nice sporty sedan, etc, etc.
Jeep has two tops, doors, new tires (Geolanders), near new motor (Buick V-6), front/rear hitches, full cage roll bar, it IS the split window, has extra windshield, harness seats and belts. Runs and drives like a Jeep! Great rig and very capable of whatever you throw at it.
I’m flexible, but not open to insulting lowball offers. If you have a Geo Prizm to offer that’s fine, but plan to add something else to your offer. I have cars to drive to work, but each of them have a drinking problem. I work swing shift, so I can be reached in the mornings or late at night. If I get your message after work I will call you back the next morning, unless you indicate otherwise. I can be reached by phone at 2o8-nine3six-nine2seven8 or you can e-mail me by using the C.L. link. Thanks for looking!”

This looks pretty stock and still sports a 24 volt system. That’s pretty funny, as I was talking with Van today (he purchased one of my Champs) and he said that 24 volt M-38s were hard to find. True, I said, but I still find them … and voila …
“This is a great older Military Jeep w/original 34000 miles 95% original parts(have re-built orininal fuel pump) Was on road w/SC tag till last fall. Perfect for off rail restoration.I have had this Jeep for many years.Clean title.24 Volt.Will run,all 4whl. drive in working order.I am too old and without resources to restore properly
My phone # is 864-391-2032”
http://atlanta.craigslist.org/nat/cto/1962597632.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was No Price.
What is that on the hood?
“I have a 1950 Military Jeep that I was going to restore but, I do not have time. It is not running at this time but, I have had it running in the past. I’m just asking for offers to be made. Please give me a call if you have any questions or if you would like to come and see it. 918-381-8293 / Johnny”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This seller must sell a variety of trucks, including this FC and a soon to be listed 1965 Willys Jeep FC170 DRW.
“1957 Willys FC150 4 cyl. 3 spd. 4X4. First off I am going through a divorice and I have to sell most of my trucks. The starting bid is what I can get for it as scrap. There is NO RESERVE. I hope that doesn’t happen. If in the event I don’t sell the truck, I will take it apart and scrap the shell. So if you see a part you need, let me know when the auction is over.
I regret that I must sell my trucks. This is a 57 FC150 that runs good, all the 4X4 works, has lock out hubs, electric fuel pump, GM alternator, and already has 11″ brakes installed on the front. I have 11″ backing plates and 1 drum for the rear that are included. The cab needs some some work. The bed is really good shape for one of these trucks. They are usually the hardest part to find. The 65 FC150 I will be listing later has a bed, but not as nice as this one. The windshield is cracked, but a good one is included. Also included with this truck is a complete 4 spd. set up for an FC150, 2 original gas tanks, a whole rear half of a cab, a whole front half of a cab, 2 doors for parts and a rear frame section that has a counterweight and mounting brackets. The rear cab section is good for patches for the lower cab corners. I have an early cab heater that is included, but it is pieces. The 2 brown seats in the pictures are included. If I think of anything else I will add it. I have a clear title. I have engines, transmissions, transfercases, rears if someone needs parts. I will add a link to Photobucket for more pictures. If you would like additional pictures, just send me your email address. If you have any questions please ask. I encourage anyone interested to come look at the truck. I work nights and am available during the day.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2995.
(09/20/2010) This seller has mower and snow plow attachments. Note the rear PTO. The tub and fenders are fiberglass.
“Good condition. Original flathead 4 cylinder starts and runs good. 3 speed transmission with hi-lo and FWD shifts good. Frame is solid with no rust. Tub and fenders are fiberglass. Hood, grill and windshield are steel. Has hydraulic lift on front and rare pto in the back. Included are a manual angle snow plow, and 59″ wide finish mower that hooks up to the rear pto, a steel half-cab which I purchased but never used, a light duty roll bar, original wheels and other parts. The speedo cable has been broken for as long as I have owned it so I have no idea how many miles are on it. The oil pressure and water temp gauges work. For the past 7 years or so, I have used this cool, old jeep to mow my lawn, plow my 100′ driveway and occasionally ride into town (5 miles) but now I have lost interest and purchased conventional mower and snowblower to replace it. Some work on the wiring for the headlights and turn signals will need to be done to make it street legal again. I will take $3500 for everything for the first person who shows up with the money and I’ll also consider offers for the jeep without the attachments.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
Unusual paint job.
“solid jeep. flat four(60 hp) needs an alt and probably battery. new 31 in tires(less than 100 miles). new water pump and had the starter rebuilt about five years ago and have put less than 100 miles on it. has a broken header bolt that could be tapped out. wouldn’t hurt to have carb rebuilt built probably easier to replace engine with small v8 to provide more power the flat four is missing. don’t have time to play with it, so time to clean my garage. could be restored with alot of work, but more likely could be made into a crawler easier. this is not a work of art but has good componets: axles, tube, t-case and trans(3 speed), tires, frame, etc. have clear title. as is.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000
(08/24/2010) This appears in good shape. I suspect it’s an older restoration.
“been in a barn for years and years, fully drivable, it went for a cruise the other day, all works. plus tow bar, 4×4”
UPDATE: Still Available
(09/02/2010) I’d like to see a better image of the top. I don’t think I’ve seen one of these. This thing sports some big front and rear bumpers, too.
“Excellent 74 Ford/Merc V-6 with C4 Transmission and Overdrive. Front Wheel Hubs and New Radiator. Reverse 14″ Wheels/Spring Under. Hydraulic Capstan Winch. $10,000 OBO. Call for more info; Phone calls only please! 503-322-0261 Thank you.”
http://portland.craigslist.org/nco/cto/1963781997.html
UPDATE I’m not shocked that this is still available
(08/20/2010) This poor jeep. I’m pretty sure this is a CJ-3A rather than a 1945 military jeep.
“here is a 1945 willys military jeep that was titled in 1951. back then military jeeps didn’t have titles. If you bought one back then it could be titled when registered. It does not run anymore ( motor is stuck ). The body is rusted bad but it has the original drivetrain . 500.00 obo”
http://wilmington.craigslist.org/cto/1964547770.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500
(08/23/2010) Looks good.

Take one Tundra Truck, plugin your Sawzall and, viola, you too can have a vehicle like this ….
Paul spotted this strange creature. It wasn’t until I saw the last picture that I discovered it was a Tundra Truck.
Paul writes, “The Goddess and I went out to eat yesterday evening (it was another one of those all you can eat and keep down places) and while walking across the parking lot I saw a modified Toyota extended cab pickup truck. This truck had California plates on it so I guess the driver had a bit of bad luck on the drive north because the damage to the body was substantial. Along with every sheet metal panel being dented, yards of tape were used to keep the headlights from falling out, the windshield and hood were missing and actually the entire top had been cut off so there were goggles hanging in the cab for the driver and passengers use. A small rear view mirror was attached to the steering column but the best touch was a bible resting on the transmission hump [editors note: If i were driving this, I might want a bible nearby, too].”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
Runs and drives …
“i have a 1948 jeep willys cj2a all original for sale or trade, it has a low mile 4 cylinder engine that runs great, it is a 3 speed manual trans, 4×4 which works good, does have some rust but very straight for its age, this jeep does run and drive but needs a float for the carb and brake work easy fix, i have the window frame with good glass and the rollbar, also have the metal frame for the soft top and soft doors”
The body looks a little work.
“selling a 1948 willys jeep tub and frame for 400 firm tub needs welding and frame has all factory steering parts not cut up. please e-mail or call and leave message 360-560-3406 jake”
http://seattle.craigslist.org/oly/pts/1961629962.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $350
“1949 Willys cj3a jeep TUB has been rebuilt little surface rust, new box tubing in place of old channel iron and a lot of new steel, tool box on passenger side still there and not rusted out $500 includes windshield frame, hood, grill, tailgate, and roll bar. I need it all gone. Jeep project that I don’t have time to finish. . There are a lot of little things that go with this jeep. If there is something you are looking for just ask and I will see if I have it.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500
This appears pretty complete, though the body appears rough.
“1945. Needs work. Very close to starting”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $5500.
(06/15/2010) This jeep has seen a few updates.
“1942 Willys off-road jeep. It was converted 3 yrs ago to a Chevy 4.3L V-6, Ford T-18 transmission with sought after 6.32-1 granny gear and Dana 18 transfer case. Axles are a 3/4 ton Dana 44 front with detroit locker and a Dana 60 rear. They have both been completely rebuilt and narrowed with Moser axles and bearings, Heavy duty Tom Woods drive shafts front and rear with a CV style u-joint on rear. This is one of few Willys Jeeps that have been converted to coil spring with front and rear triangulated suspension. It has a awesome, smoothe off road ride with incredible articulation with no bindage. It has dual exhaust, edelbrock carb, power steering, 33” Thornbirds, hydraulic clutch, and a large marine battery. Has a massive 200 amp alternator to run 1000 watts of lights and a Warn 9000 winch with a removable cradle to plug in front and rear. The entire drive line since new only has a couple thousand miles on it and has never been street legal or taken to the beach. This Jeep has only been used in the Winter on a 200 acre deer lease for the past few years and stored inside during the summer. I’m no longer paying the high prices for deer leases and decided to sell my Willy and buy a street legal CJ7. Im firm on the 7000 and if it doesn’t sell, I’ll just convert it to street legal. (979)239-8862 ”
http://houston.craigslist.org/cto/1961567913.html
UPDATE **SOLD** Was $2500.
(08/18/2010) It looks like the driver and passenger side entrances have been cut down a bit.
“I have a cool 46 willys jeep. It runs good but needs some tlc and a master cyl. asking 2500.00 or trade ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4200
(09/03/2010) This appears in good shape, but I can’t quite tell how good.
“1963 Willys F 170 4X4 6 cylinder, runs great, good shape”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2895
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3700
(09/19/2010) I’m not sure why this is so cheap, but it appears to be a great price.
“DONT MISS THIS ONE! A 1953 WILLYS CJ3B IN EXCELLENT CARED FOR CONDITION! HAS $800 IN NEW/ORIGINAL 16″ MILITARY TIRES (5 OF THEM) HAS A $2000 REMOTE CONTROL”
