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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
I always laugh when I see the “it ran when parked” comment.
“This is a WIlly’s jeep that is a project. I just want the thing out of my garage. My husband bought it from my brother five years ago and promised to have it running within a year. Now I just want my garage back. $1200 OBO…price is not firm
When the jeep was parked it was running with the new motor, but it needed new wiring. The jeep does have the hood, tailgate, and door frames…”
The seller is in the rockies somewhere ….
“I have for sale a 1948 Willys Jeep that I have owned for some time. I no longer have time to restore it and am looking to sell it to a good home. The motor is newly rebuilt and has only a few miles on the rebuilt motor. I have an extra block, head and two crank shafts to go with it as well as lots of extra parts. I am asking $3500 but will entertain any reasonable offers. Call me with any questions, no trades please. More pictures available upon request…..Make me an offer I cant refuse. 719-221-2210”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3900.
Looks good!

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4200
This looks nice. It’s got some nice upgrades.
“48 Willys CJ-2a in beautiful condition. Buick 3.7 V6 with 4-barrel carb, original twin stick T-case and 3-speed transmission, power steering, heater, full cage with nice paint. Nice new top and 31″ tires, bikini top as well. One of the nicer flattys you’ll see around and gets lots of compliments. Moving to Utah and can’t bring it with. Runs perfect.”
The pics aren’t the greatest, but it sounds like this is in excellent shape!
“1965 Willy’s Tuxedo Park 20Th Anniversary CJ 5 These jeeps are very rare!!! 225 cu V-6. Holly 400 cfm 4 barrel carb on an Edelbrock manifold. Headers, Overdrive, Full Cage Roll Bar, 11 inch Brakes, Duel gas tanks, Front locking hubs,Tilt and Power Steering and an after market heater. Here are some pictures. I`m going to put it up on a lift and get some pics of frame and running gear for those of you that want more. It`s never had a break or crack in the frame. I even have the original key that came with the jeep when purchased new. It had a single shift transfer case that my dad changed the shifter handles on. You know how those old school folks are. This jeep was set up right. It has a long stroke motor with small primaries in the carburetor for good low end torque and good gas mileage and secondaries for good performance. Its the only 225 I’ve ever seen with a 4 barrel. Not to say they’re not out there. It has 39.000 original miles. With a little cleaning and a nice paint job it would look like new. It has a little dent in the hood and at the bottom of the door. When I say little I mean very little.This jeep was my fathers and he took very good care of it. He passed away 2 years ago and its been sitting outside. It was in the garage for the first 42 years of its life. Its going to be hard to see it go. I would like to see it go to someone who would take care and enjoy it like my dad did. I will send you more pictures if you want. Thanks for looking and hope you like what you see. Steve. My Email is Jeeepin@yahoo.com”
UPDATE: Mike has informed me that this sold. I”ll leave this here so the comment thread stays intact.
Mike writes, “It has a new 12 volt motor with a core that was fixed at a shop. It is nice not rusted or beat up.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
“This old military jeep is in excellent condition for a 63 year old vehicle – runs great, but needs some brake work before driving. Bought as a restoration project that never got finished, so the jeep also comes with a lot of parts and extras … (extras listed) ….”
UPDATE: Now listed on eBay for $3800
This has got a fiberglass body.
“4×4 fiberglass body with steel grill hood and windshield frame, flathead 4 cyinder, runs great!, will consider trade or part trade for a full sized p/up with 8 foot bed road worthy. some work needed O.K.”
UPDATE: There were two projects, but it appears now there is only one.
“Willys Jeep Project – CJ3A Tub on a CJ5 frame. Tub is straight, perfect floorboards. Brand new Hurricane 4cyl with T90 trans and T18 Transfer. Dana front and rear. Great Crawler project. For more information call (530) 743-7215 or reply by email. $1000 OBO……?”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $10,500.
I found this ad interesting because the seller says he got an appraisal of $12,500 from Southern Motors (a car seller?). It appears to be restored, however the pics make some of the parts of the body look a little rough (it could be the pics). The drive train and transmission sound stock to me.
“1948 WILLYS Jeep, 406 CI Motor, 4 BBL, 194 Camelback Early Corvette Heads, 3 Speed Trans, 538 Axle, Completely restored inside and out. Engine and Transmission rebuilt less than 500 miles on rebuild. Lots of power. New LTX Ms Michlin 31 X 10.5 R 15 tires.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
It’s got what appears to be a CJ-3A or 2A grille that has been modified into a CJ-3B grille.
It’s a running CJ-3B for only $1200. It’s worth a look.
“Great hunting vehicle. Has 8000lb ramsey winch, runs good needs a little tuning.”
I spent the day pondering a new design for ewillys. One goal was to get more of a script for the ewillys brand that I could use to create t-shirts, etc with. Also, I wanted to reorganize things a bit. Finally, I want to more tightly incorporate the dynamic areas into the overall design (similar to what I have tested in the current design). NOTE: I haven’t filled in anything in the sidebar, but most of the side bar info on the current design would appear in the sidebar of the new design. click on the pic to get the full effect.
Troy forwarded me this great pic of his son Tyler dragging at the PNW Summer Convention. Tyler is 18 now and Troy writes, “I HAVEN’T HAD TO RIDE WITH HIM AT THE RACES SINCE HE TURNED 16…. I MADE A BIG MISTAKE THIS YEAR AND RODE WITH HIM ON THE X-CROUNTRY…..THE KIDS GOT IT, BUT @#!%&##@ HE SCARES THE HELL OUT ME…LOL.” You can see both the race jeep and troy’s other jeep here. Looks fun!
I didn’t get many specifics on this build, other than it is a barn find that was carefully rebuilt and is located in or near deer park, washington. There are lots of great details on it. Thanks for the pics Michelle!
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $12,000

It appears this frankenstinien CJ-3B ran into an old style apartment radiator.
“I have a willys jeep for sale, I am guessing it’s about a ’52, it comes with a hard-top, it has been converted to a Ford 6 cylinder with 12 volt and HEI ignition”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7995.
Not much specific info about this M-151A1.
“This 1964 Kaiser M151A1 was designed by Ford Motor Co. with guidance for the US Army..s Truck Automotive Command. Development work began in the early 50s and after several years of experimenting with different framing materials as well as suspension options the Willies or Kaiser M151A1 was born … Our mechanic has completed a full inspection of the vehicle and is more than happy to go over it with you.”
UPDATE: New pictures added.
This is a good looking rig and, given the upgrades, the price seem good. It looks like it was a club vehicle.

“I’m moving and must sell my classic 1946 Willys. I have replaced the fuel system and part of the oil system in addition to the thermostat. This is a great Jeep that will go anywhere. The prior owner used it to hunt, I have primarily driven it around town and in the foothills. Contact me with any questions. “
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3700
While the outside on this looks very good, the engine is frozen. The seller presents a variety of comparison prices to make the case for the price.
“After much agonizing, I’m selling my 1960 Jeep FC170 cabover pickup (flatbed). Good body, presentable interior, nearly new tires. All original running gear: 3-speed, two-speed transfer case, locking hubs. Hurricane 6-cylinder engine is frozen (rod?). Clear title, current license. This will be a very easy restoration for a collector, or can be a real workhorse with either the same engine or with a 350 swap (adapters are available commercially). Why sell it? Running out of time this year, with too many family medical issues to deal with, and enough other 4×4’s that this one isn’t really needed. Call for more info or pictures. ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2300.
“All original with F head motor and spare. Ran a few years ago. Engine smoked but ran good. Comes with top and doors. Jeep is very complete and clean, with little surface rust.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1900.
This looks in pretty good shape. If it gets running easily, this might be a good deal.
“For Sale–1947 Jeep CJ2A, Original and complete w/ top. Not running, but will run. Pictures on request.”
Here’s an M-38 that’s seen a few trails.
“1952 Willys Jeep for sale runs but has knock all running good no rust”
