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 $11,000.
Appears solid.

“Up for sale is this 1950’s Jeep. I don’t know a lot about this, just looking to get rid of it. Contact me for more info or to come see it.”
This appears to have a replacement body, as it’s a mix of M-38 and MB styles. Also, it shouldn’t have full-floaters (though I think there are a useful add).

“1951 Willies Jeep with extras.”
Someone has fun with this build.

“Purchased The Willys in 2018 from a farm. The Body was mostly Rust free. Then we purchased a 1986 Monte Carlo with a Ponitac 400 Engine and 200R4 Automatic Transmission. We proceeded to remove the Monte Carlo Body off and Move the Willys Body to the Monte Carlo Frame. The Pick Up bed has been Custom Made. Looks like a Wrecker but the Wrecker is only for looks. There are new tires and Wheels not shown in pictures. It looks and runs good. Currently registered and inspected in NH. It is currently located in the shop Orange Mass putting the finishing touches on it.”
UPDATE: Still Available.

“I have a 1946 Jeep willys for sale. As you can see from the pictures the front end it taken off since I pulled the motor that it came with and was going to replace it with a Buick 3.8. Jeep is in great shape for how old it is. Everything you need to get it back together is all there. Floor needs repair in one spot. I was going to do a brand new tub but decided not to. Frame is immaculate. Comes with a 3.8 turbo Buick. No rush to sell. Negotiable”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $5550.
(05/13/2021) This has an old NH registration, but no title, so sold bill-of-sale.

“Willys CJ-2A serial number puts it from 1946. Have a bunch of new parts to go with it and two original fenders that are in better condition than what were on it. Was running, Plan was to reseal engine and make it a military replica, but had a new kid, so projects all took a backseat. Rather have this go to someone who use it vs it sitting here for years till I can finish restoring it. Hood and fenders and radiator are off, where I was went I ran out of time. Pulled the head to inspect valves and cylinders, look great. No idea why the listing say automatic transmission, obviously a standard, but no option to change it. As for trades looking for quality bench top lathe and or milling machine. also on the lookout for 6′ brush hog for the tractor or a good wood splitter. or if you have a offer doesn’t hurt to ask. Will be on bill of sales, has old registration from previous owner when it was played in NH.”
UPDATE: Still Available.

“50’s military Jeep converted to a plow rig and grader. Has power up and down grader blade on rear of Jeep. Plow on front , hydraulic up and down. No turn pistons on at the moment but the lines are there to install. Plowed twice with Jeep. It’s a beast. Took in trade. The guy I traded with said he noticed a clicking noise in front end. Removed cover and said one tooth missing from ring gear. I haven’t been into it to see what is going on. I plowed with it in 4×4 and it was fine. Needs 4 glow plugs installed which I have. It’s a diesel. Motor is a 4 cylinder Ford Has a roll cage. Cool rig for a camp or farm. Well built. Firm on price. Thanks for looking. Runs excellent. Has small fuel leak on very top of injector pump. O-ring on top shaft. Easy fix for someone who is mechanical. I have a plow truck. Just don’t need this. Come check it out.4 new tires. Will consider a trade for a decent quad with plow”

“Original, Runs Good, New Tires”
Just a couple updates for Friday.
Gary informed me that Lawrence Elliot of North Carolina passed away recently. Lawrence was a long time jeep mechanic, who owned jeeps up until he passed. He also rebuilt bell cranks, installing bearings into them to improve their behavior.
Ann, Maury and I had a chance to spend time with Lawrence and check out his jeeps back in 2018. Below are Lawrence and I posing at the back of his Willys Truck.
Jim’s got his wagon for sale. He’s unsure of the year. It includes a Western Snowplow and a Ramsey PTO winch. You can contact him at 815 419 8445 or jbloughus @ gmail.com (remove spaces around the @).
