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 .
Brett found this unusually painted CJ-3A. I can’t tell if this is a well executed canvas of trees and limbs or an arbitrary splashing of paint.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $700
(05/24/2010) Besides a restorer’s touch, this needs a restorer’s bankroll.
“1951 Willys Jeep for someone into restoring autos… This guy has been sitting under cover but needs a restorers touch. I am selling this for my landlords.. original asking price was $1500 but the landlord has come to their senses and is letting me sell it for $700…. This fella needs to find a new home asap….

This might be a great deal, as it includes an overdrive.

(12/9/2009) eWillys’ reader Bryan is selling this rig. He’s got a pretty good collection of jeeps already!
“I am going to sell my 48 CJ2A in order to restore a 3A I have been wanting to rebuild for some time. This jeep is in very good condition. Original 4cyl 3 speed. with NDT tires and rims including mounted spare. Solid jeep not perfect condition but very nice. Jeep RUNS and DRIVES. Starter is acting up and fuel lines could be flushed as it has set in a shed for two years but was licensed and on the road in 2006/2007. I also ran recently with gas through carb. Belonged to an older gentleman who fixed up to drive in parades. Couple spots in floor board(Small)and one wear mark on drivers side paint but very good. I havent seen a cleaner original split windsheild frame and I have seven jeeps. Jeep has obviously been repainted at one time but nicely done and no visible bondo. Clean tailgate, frame, body ect. Possibly willing to help deliver at purchasers expense. Clean nebraska title with original serial num. and plate If you have questions, call me 308-325- 2858. No scammers I have more pics but serious interests only.”

I’m assuming this is a DJ-3A based on the year.

One of the bodies is a VEC body.
“I have 3 Cj2a jeeps for sale. The first is a rolling chasis with body and T-90 transmission and spicer 18 transfercase. I do not have the a hood or windshield. This jeep is very solid and straight. It has a little rust but nothing major for it’s age. The next 2 jeeps are tubs only. One is has had some repair nice repair work done to the floor boards and quarters. The other tub is in several sections and has rust. I am also selling an aluminum hard top with hard doors. These are very hard to come by. It is aluminum so there are no rust issues! Only serious buyers should reply. These are original jeeps and are only getting harder and more expensive to find. I may have a few other misc parts”

(04/17/2010) Lots of quality work on this ‘old’ willys. The builder made an unusual decision with the dash. Note the packaging, with the PTO and parts in a suitcase, stuff in mini filing containers, and more. There are a TON of pics to review.

This GPW has been in the family for 60 years. The owner is 96.
“This is a 1943 Ford Jeep. My Dad, 96 years old now, bought this jeep in California in about 1950, and has had and maitained it all His life. This was his pride and joy. He has pictures of all us kids in it, out on the desert in Calif, and in the San Bernardino mountains. The Jeep has been in Many Parades, toting World War II, Millitary Warriors. The jeep as far as I know is all original. He always talked about it being original. He has had it in storage the last few years. We started it up, but gas tank has a leak. He has a lot of extra parts, hood, radiater, wheels, gas tank, etc. It does need some TLC, but still in Great shape for a 1943 vehicle. The seats and motor, and other parts are stamped with the Ford, letter F symbol. We took quite a few pictures, from all angles, so hopefully this will help.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Here’s a nice Jeepster that includes an 8-track tape player.
“Parade car. This jeepster is an older restoration from Ohio. It was a Shriner’s parade car and was in the Jeepster Club of America. I have owned and enjoyed it for three years with no problems. It has a Buick V6, power steering and an automatic transmission. I’m sure the original mileage is over 100,000 miles but I have no idea of the true miles. It was obviously restored at one time but would need to be redone at some point if you want a show car. It looks good going down the road and garners lots of attention and thumbs up. Top is good with a boot and all side windows. It is the original color scheme which was a hard to get color. It has sixteen horns and a great eight track with your very own Johnny Cash tape! I can tell that it has had some rust repair in the past which is to be expected in a 60 year old Jeepster. Buy this just in time for your local 4th of July parade. Vehicle is for sale locally, I reserve the right to end this auction early.”
This looks like a good price.
“Koenig Iron Works hard top, tow bar, flathead four runs fine needs some TLC.”

“1947 willys cj-2a , motor runs strong (no smoke). new gas tank & lines , new fuel pump. new tires & rims. new distributor. some new brake lines & rebuilt master cyl. the frame and body is in very good cond.”
Here’s a nice looking conversion from a truck bed to a flatbed. It’s not a bad solution to a bad truck bed.
“1956 Willys Pickup; Converted flat bed; 289 Ford V8; New wiring, brake, muffler, gas tank/lines, radiator. Rebuilt 3 years ago. less than 500 miles.”
