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 .

I’ve been enjoying some fun time with my kids during the past week; driving the jeep has become one of the favorite activities, despite the freezing temps. I finally got brave enough to let Karson drive off in it by himself (well, only around the block). So, here’s a video of it for those interested.
One of the things I’ve been noticing as I watch the video is that the jeep slopes backwards more than intended. But, that doesnt’ trouble me too much, because I had planned to change out the stock XJ springs for some XJ springs with a 2″ lift. Well, either that or I can mount the springs over the top. For now, they’ll work fine though.
UPDATE; **SOLD** Was $600.
Those appears to be the mudflaps hanging from the back.
“NO TITLE, Serial Number 88306, Drive train is fine (axels, trans, engine, brakes, transfer case) has PTO with no lever or propeller shaft. Good oil pressure. Set up to simulate an MB. 60+ year old Body is far from perfect. 8 inch wide wheels with dry-cracked tires. Good to run on a farm or for hunting and trail riding. Mud Flaps & Tow bar goes with. Must go soon. Advertised locally. Drive it on your trailer and get back home to have some fun. $600”
It’s a parts jeep, but note the solid steel rims. This may be a good price.

$550 Cash Only. Call Andy for further details”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1100.
Includes antlers? Maybe you get the “it’s a jeep thing” sign on the back as well?
“In the vicinity of a 1947 Jeep Willys that runs great around the farm with at least one forward gear + reverse; 6 cyl Buick engine; have another Jeep, (not pictured) similar age as well , stock engine and all gears – contact:”
It’s hard to tell much from the pic.
“1946 Willys CJ-2A. Original drivetrain with flathead four cylinder engine. Clear AZ title, not registered. Body has some rust but it has mostly been repaired (needs paint).
Comes with towbar, removeable shade (golf cart top that clamps to the roll bar), and service manual.
Many upgraded and/or new parts within last several years (the Jeep has rarely been used during this time):
– Transmission (three speed) and transfer case rebuilt
– Steering box rebuilt with all new parts, one-piece tie rod conversion, new steering wheel
– Brand new gear-reduction starter
– 12V electrical system with GM alternator, headlights work
– Flush-mount taillights installed but not hooked up
– Carburetor rebuilt, adjustable fuel pressure regulator
– 7.00-15 tires (much easier to find then original 6.00-16)
– Rebuilt master cylinder, and new wheel cylinders
– Re-lined transmission parking brake and new cable (comes with it but not installed yet)
I have owned it for eleven years and used it for hunting and four-wheeling. It could be made street-legal fairly easily, but with 60 hp, 9″ brakes and 5.38 gears it is much better suited for off-road use.
I am selling it because I no longer use it and have too many vehicles. I will consider offers, and will also consider a trade for a big quad or a smaller RV travel trailer (no cars or trucks,etc). Please respond via craigslist or call Al at 490-1963. I can send several other pictures upon request.”

“This is a ’53 Willys Jeep that has been in my family for many years and was in running condition when parked in the barn about five years ago.It has it’s original Hurricane flat head four cylinder engine that always ran really good and I’m sure it would again with a little TLC.This Jeep has not been off of my family’s farm in over twenty years and is still in pretty solid shape as it has always been kept in the barn.I can’t guarantee it’s mechanical condition but would only imagine it would still run with a little work.Thanks for looking and good luck!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $800.
“1946 Willys CJ2A – I never have had the time or money to restore this Jeep. This Jeep has an International 4 cylinder engine in it (not original). I had the engine running in 2000, but blew a gasket or something and haven’t done anything to it since then. If you are interested in a restoration project or building a great offroad machine, this would be great for either. Body has minor surface rust and some bad bondo from previous owner. Additionally, new floor pans were installed at some point. Come and take a look. I will try to put up pictures at some point – it currently is serving as a shelf in my garage so not very photo worthy!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500

I just love the fact that this was the seller’s daily driver for years.
“My maroon Willys station wagon that has been around Port Townsend for the last eighteen years (parked in front of Hilltop Texaco for five of those) is now for sale for $5000. This was my daily driver until five years ago when I decided to make it 4 wheel drive. I have collected and built absolutely the best components to accomplish that but too many other projects have taken over my time. It currently has a tired but functional Chev 350 and a turbo 350 tranny with a Lokar shifter with e-brake and a positraction Dana 44 rear. I just installed the rechromed bumpers, the rest of the chrome is good. The wood runners in the back are in excellent condition also. It has the hard to find original seats that I reupholstered several years ago. Components that I have to go with it are; rebuilt 700R4 trans that was mated to a NP 205 (all gear, no chain) transfer case, Dana 44 front and rear differentials, new loaded calipers for the front, Advance adapters Saginaw power steering kit, an extra set of five original 16 inch wheels with old Michelin tires on them, a new tailgate hinge and tailgate lower repair section (which it really does not need) and a complete rear clip from a “barn door” (side opening doors) vehicle. I have collected boxes and boxes of spare things like speedometers, door handles, windows, steering wheels and so much other stuff that I can’t remember all of it. ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500

UPDATE: Price dropped to $1175
(11/7/09) You can’t say this seller hasn’t tried to give you a complete overview of this jeep. There is a total of 37 images. It’s rough, but it is a column shift 2 wheel drive with a tailgate. It’s supposed to run well.
“Willys Jeep dj3a Overland this is the 2 wheel drive model with L-134 engine with three speed on the column. Not just a L-134 engine but a industrial L-134 engine. This engine runs real good as you can see in the video plus the oil is super clean like someone went through this engine. As you can see in the video I pulled the dipstick out and you can see how clean the oil is. And that was after a half an hour of running plus driving it in the yard….”
