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 .
For $25k, I’d hope for at least a few markings …

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
There might be some value here. The rollcage looks pretty good.
“Here is a 52 willys cj3a jeep. Have good windshield frame. The frame is solid . The body is shot. Have lots of parts if you need. The title and vin plate is good and is in my name.”
UPDATE: Was $1500. **SOLD**
“
1957 Jeep FC 150. no title. Disassembled. $2500 obo. A great project for someone with the time….These are Rare…there were only a few of them made.”
After reading the “Surviving a Nuclear Blast“, Rich forwarded this Civil Defense Video hosted at archive.org. At the 2:45 mark, you’ll see the red wagon below. I think it would be interesting to do a restoration like this. There’s a few other jeeps in the video as well, though no close up shots like this one.
Mathew spotted this. Available for sale in Monroe Center, Il, this unusual piece of Willys history is something I’d never seen. After some research, I discovered another one of these that sold for $4000 a couple years ago, though it was powered by a ford 2.3 liter engine.

HOG spotted this video. I really thought the river would win …
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8200.
Frank is selling his CJ-3B.
“For sale: 1954 Willys CJ3B with new tub, rebuilt brakes, all U joints, engine, tranny/transfer case, new beachwood seat covers and foam inserts. Five brand new ndcc tires. The frame was sandblasted and painted with POR 15. It runs great; it has an original F head engine. I documented the restoration with some pics on the CJ3B page. The tub came from willys overland in toledo. The Jeep is now on 12 volts and has an alternator in it. I have extra hood and fender that go with it. The email address is fporfidio@optonline.net . The jeep is in new york (long island). I am asking $8200. This is pretty close to a turn key jeep. I’ve got way more than that into this jeep. I have a ton of pics so if you want to see something just ask me, thanks.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000.
This looks solid.
“For sale 1954 Willy’s Overland High Hood Jeep, made to look military. Runs great, Email for more pictures. $4000 OBO Serious inquires only please.”
How about this solid, original CJ-3B.
“1953 Jeep willy CJ3A runs good needs battery.comes with windsheild and top $3000. OBO Needs to sell. Call evenings with any questions, ask for gary 541-459 3403”
http://eugene.craigslist.org/cto/1926116736.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $700.
This looks like a deal. It runs, has a top, and a plow. That’s worth $700 easily. I’m guessing this is a MB rather than a CJ-2A.
“1946 Jeep with plow. 4 wheel drive used to plow driveway for last 3 years. extra set of original rims, extra transmission and transfer case, axels and steering column and wheel. Also have tow bar”
Here’s a ‘professionally’ restored M-38 that doesn’t appear accurately restored. You can see it is missing the M-38 grille and grill mount, suggesting this is a CJ frame. It doesn’t have a M-38 gas tank and the inlet is in an odd position. The windshield vent should be bolted, not hinged. The rear of the frame looks civilian; Here’s the way the rear should really look. Note the drain piece where the hood connects to the body — that is from a CJ-3A. And, last but not least, the Dash Plate is installed upside down and backwards …
“YOU ARE LOOKING AT A 1951 WILLYS JEEP M38 ARMY GREEN WITH ARMY GREEN INTERIOR, HAS GO DEVIL ENGINE, ALL DECALS , GAS CAN, SHOVELS, POWER TAKE OFF LOCKING FRONT HUBS, CANVAS TOP IS OFF . THIS JEEP IS PROFESSIONALLY RESTORED. FOR MORE INFORMATION CALL 631-218-1300 OR EMAIL AT: AUTOPETENY@AOL.COM.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2800.
It does run, but needs work.
“1952 willys M38 jeep , original condition, some rust but very solid. Needs master cylinder rebuild, runs and goes. Have 4 stock rims to go with it. Asking $2800.00”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000
“A 1951 Willy’s Jeepster Roadster that was restored in 2003. Has been in the garage for the last 3 years. Convertable Top, Great Paint and the Original Hurricane 6 cyl engine. Call for more details.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500
This looks good.
“You are looking at a Real nice 1950 Jeepsteer. She has a rebuilt Overhead engine and manual transmission! Give me a call so we can talk about how we can make my car yours. I feel that my price of $7,5,000.00 is very fair for a collector car like this one with the potential that this car has.”
If this just needs the carb cleaned, then it might be a good price.
“For sale is a jeep with a hardtop, needs about $500 of work, brake lines,carb kit, rear springs and exhust. had it running a while back but needs carb kit to start better. Steve 218-261-0263”

UPDATE: I suspect this was junked and the now a seller is selling the parts. http://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/pts/1957602943.html
This might be a good parts FC.
“GOOD FOR PARTS BRING A TRAILER VERY LOW MILE TRUCK/JEEP HAS PLOW AND DUMP BED SEATS CENTER MOTER COVER VERY NICE SET OF DIFF’S AND TRANSFERCASE.HAS A 1959 CHEVY V-8 IN IT NOW WITH TRANS.”
Runs and moves.

http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ank/cto/1923629229.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
This seems to be missing a body.
“1947 Jeep. New seats, manual trans, twin stick transfer case, Detachable tow bar, Has ford Pinto 4 cylinder motor That ran last time i drove it about a year ago, only problem is that it needs a fuel return line to the fuel tank because it floods out at idle. comes with stock steel hood (stamped Willie) and aftermarket fiberglass hood. Great projet!”
This needs some work … I’m less certain an average Joe could do a great job with this unless they expend an unaverage amount of money.
“I have a ’42, Ford GPW, real deal WWII jeep. Frame and body are original as is the glove box door. Serial numbers are the same in all three areas. At some point earlier in its life it had a small ford straight six installed. I got it to restore. But after an accident my health is holding me back. So I hope that someone else can bring it back to life. Look at this way no compound curves, no fancy expensive rechromimg polishing. The ” average Joe” could do a great job on this little piece History. Questions, wanna take a look? Ph. 209 599-6044.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500
Here’s a good looking flattie with a fiberglass body. This might be a good price.
“the jeep has a 4 cyc ford motor 3 speed trans. 4×4 all works good the body is fiberglass all in good shape has a heater late steering gear box highway gears”
This also includes a rebuildable MB/GPW of some sort. No pictures of that.
“1948 CJ2A Willys Jeep in excellent shape. Ready to drive away or pull with attached tow bar. This price includes one more rebuildable older (1942) model.”

UPDATE: Was $4500. **SOLD**
“1960 Willys CJ-3B; IN GOOD SHAPE; RUNS GREAT; ”

This doesn’t run at the moment.
“1946 Willys Jeep CJ2A Service Manuel Included. 3 Speed Stick Shift. NOT RUNNING. Motor is all here but it is apart. Newer Tires. If Interested Call And Make Me An OFFER. ”
Looks ready to roll.

http://siouxfalls.craigslist.org/cto/1925338354.html
UPDATE: Price dropped to $1650.
(07/05/2010) This looks good, though it needs the gas tank replaced.
“Selling a 1947 Willys CJ2A. Runs good and the 4 wheel drive works great. All lights work, headlights, tail lights, brake lights, turn signals and dash light. Heater works great. Steering is sloppy, interior floor could use some work, seats torn up (not original). Fuel tank removed, using portable boat tank now. I do have two fuel tanks, but they need work. Inner windshield frame needs work or replacing. Have extra windshield frame, modified to single glass. Windshield wiper motors need replacing.
