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 .
In honor of Bruce Meyers. This seller will trade his (possible Manx?) dune buggy for a jeep with plow.

“1958 dune buggy. Runs excellent. Comes with tow bar and miscellaneous parts, extra paint, etc. $8k or will trade for 4wd Jeep with plow and winch”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4850.
Has some mods. The cut sides aren’t finished off quite the same; the passenger side is more finished than the flat, straight angle of the driver’s side. Overall, the look isn’t all that bad in my opinion. I think if there was care taken, with more material left on the front side of the cuts this might make an interesting look.
“Vintage 1972 Jeep CJ6 Runs good”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500.
(11/15/2020) Seems like a pretty good price.

As far as I know I have everything to finish the build. I have a crate full of Parts for the jeepster Original motor and transmission are gone so the project comes with no motor or transmission I was going to install v6 auto trans from a late model truck so it’s a blank slate the jeepster is rust free and in excellent condition needs very little to finish and I have a great start on it already since last posting I’ve finished the wheels and tires and have painted the frame as well as undercoated inside I’m getting ready to undercoat underneath and paint the Tub or main body Turquoise like the wheels. these are pretty rare old convertibles last picture for attention and how I was going to restore it located southern Indiana asking 4,000 firm what a deal located in Evansville Indiana and a fairly simple project for even a beginner”

“A Prospector’s Dream or a mini RV!
A unique vehicle for the right individual. A fold out six foot bed behind the seats, and a “kitchen” underneath. Email me for videos showing the set ups. A 1944 WWII surplus jeep purchased in 1954. It is a Willy’s 4 cylinder. I think it might be a CJ 6.
Needs new gas tank (has 2 tanks, if you want to replace both) Seals and belts are dry, but should absorb fluids back when added. It was started, but turned off to avoid running bad gas through the carburetor. All the mini-van modifications can be removed to restore to original jeep without too much conversion.
If interested E-mail phone number to pungoriver@live.com and I will call you for further information. If you like make a bid.
It has been garaged.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(04/30/2020) Has mods. “Aluminum” Buick V6? That’s a pricey engine if it is actually the TA aluminum block.

“Up for sale is my 1946 Willy’s cj2a. It has the aluminum Buick v6 in it. Frame is boxed. Sitting on good m/t 235/75/15 Firestones. Three speed split case with reverse. New battery, new clutch. Manual brakes manual steering. New seats and floor was bedlined.”

In 1950 the Jeep Station Sedan line was upgraded with the Lightening 6 engine. Apparently, that didn’t stimulate sales, as the Sedan model was canceled later in 1950. For some reason, there’s no form number attached to this brochure (I can’t figure out why some brochures have form numbers and some don’t). The four-page brochure opens horizontally. Since it didn’t fit on my scanner, I ‘scanned’ it with my phone, but it didn’t scan all that well. It doesn’t look as dirty in person as it does in the pics.
This April 03, 1942, photo shows Corporal Joseph Vober and Cecelia Marchio ‘demonstrating’ the new wacky-talkie that is installed in a jeep.
I didn’t learn much about either person pictured in the photo. Cecelia married, becoming Cecelia Maselic (Ceclia’s brother Daniel was a Marine in WWII and Korea). I believe Joseph Vober would go on to marry Evelyn Lau.
I *think* this Go-For-Digger brochure features the trench on the back of an International D-1300 1 ton truck. Can anyone confirm this model? This brochure is Catalog No. 1865:
As best as I can translate, the Swedes in this CJ-2A are celebrating National (or World) Children’s Day. Maybe the signs provide more information.
Looks solid.

“1947 Willy’s CJ-2A Rebuilt in 2018 Rebuilt Motor in 2020 All new… Suspension Cooling System Electrical Brake system (drum) NOS transmission (lucky ebay find) Exhaust Steering components minus tie rods (tie rod ends are new) and has orginial steering shaft New floor pans Converted to 12V with alternator Starter has been rebuilt Interco TSL Swampers The jeep is great little jeep for its age. Still needs a windshield inner frame and glass but those are available aftermarket.

“I’ve decided to sell my “flat rod” It’s a Ford GPW body, M38 frame with a rebuilt 302 and a C4 trans. Scout II front end with GM truck outers, Dodge truck rear end. I’ve got a lot of build pics on some Facebook groups. It’s all wired, starts, runs and moves, needs front shocks (I was trying to decide between friction and tube) and some minor finishing work, check everything’s tight, etc… Gauges, lights, signals, and horn all work. I don’t have a title but have a line on one through a guy from Washington state. Depending on where you are you might not need one. I know I’ll never get out what I put in but I’m thinking $10k obo if anyone’s interested.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $12,000.

“I have a very cool and rare Jeep Willys Fleet Van for sale. These vehicles went into production in the sixties for the use by the USPS. The van was bought to fix up and then COVID. It did start and run, but it has been sitting for several months and does not start now. It has an airbag suspension system that works and raises and lowers the vehicle. This is van will turn heads everywhere you go. Just needs some love. Let me know if you have any questions.”
Blaine shared this rare dually Gladiator. I couldn’t say if that’s a good price or not, as I don’t follow the Gladiator prices all the closely.
http://topclassiccarsforsale.com/jeep/395282-1966-j3000-gladiator-dually.html
“ENDANGERED SPECIES, 1966 Jeep J3000 Gladiator 4spd 4X4 DUALLY!
All matching numbers engine and trans. Clear VA title from 1976. If you are a Jeep enthusiast, you have got to appreciate the Jeep Gladiators….Tough and Mean. This rare Gladiator is equipped with the original 327 Vigilante 4bbl, 4spd and 4WD. A true work horse. The truck was purchased by a Virginia Beach Fish Market in 1966 and special ordered as a Dually and with the airplane tire option during that era. The original tires are still on the truck with minimum wear.
The classic jeeps from the 60’s are becoming more and more hard to find especially ones that are not completely molested or rusted out.Do your research and you will find that this particular Gladiator is highly collectible and most are in private collections.
I have had this truck for a long time and need to get rolling on other projects. Took me years to find a decent Gladiator worth restoring. The last pic of the complete jeep is not my jeep, just an example.Thank you for looking at my auction!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1300.
