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: Still Available.

“1958 Willys Run good. It had a restoration many years ago. Possible trade. Pm. For details”
This Commando has an unusual dash setup.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1230976524956311
“It has a Buick 350 swapped into it, which runs surprisingly well. It has never failed to start, even after sitting for years at a time. It runs and drives, but needs steering attention and brakes redone. Body is in overall, decent shape. Top is in rough shape and is only on to protect from the elements. It has an original dash, and dash pad, along with a new steering column. There is no wiring, other than what is necessary to start the vehicle. It will come with a new wiring harness, from “Painless Performance”.”
One is very rough.

“Listing my 46 jeep cj2a or 3a plaque is faded. It has a manual transmission and a 351 ford v8 in it. Bought it to build into an off-road rig but haven’t touched it in almost 6 months.

This FC-150 just sold for $25,000 at a Bring A Trailer auction. Lots of good interior photos.
https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1961-willys-fc-150/
“This 1961 Willys Jeep FC-150 has been refinished in green and yellow and features a front winch, dual side mirrors, and a drop-down tailgate. The truck is powered by a 134ci Hurricane inline-four linked to a three-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. Further details include a side-mounted spare tire, a cab heater, locking front hubs, and vinyl seating surfaces that match the exterior color scheme. It was acquired by the seller in 2018, and subsequent work included performing fluid services and replacing ignition components. This FC-150 is now offered with a bed cover and transferrable New York registration in the seller’s name.”
Now that I have the longer, six foot cable, I had a chance to continue with the transfer case shifter. The bracket that was provided by JB Customs, caused the shifter cable to run into the engine, which didn’t seem like a valid strategy, so I roughly calculated the angle, then made two cuts into the aluminum bracket. This allowed me to re-mount the bracket and then bend the bracket into the right position, but maintain the correct bracket-end distance.
Here are two pics of the original bracket:
This pic shows one of the two cuts plus the new angle. Even with that small bit of metal holding up the bracket, the shifter could easily shift through the gears. So, next I’ll repair that gap.
Here you can see how the cable angles upward, the veers toward the driver’s side. I haven’t determined where I’ll be securing the cable.
The shift boot needs to be reattached under the bezel. The bezel is the original bezel with the colorful surface sanded, which turned out to be exactly what I wanted. I’ve painted it red since this pic was taken.
Here’s the shifter all the way forward. It’s surprisingly (to me anyway) easy to shift.
Next up I was going to build the final parts for the transmission oil cooler and fan bracket, but I have misplaced a couple pieces that I created and now can’t find them. So, I’ll work on the 1.5″ gauges next. Then, the gas pedal.
This rare model of an early 1960s Willys Wagon by Authenticast just sold on eBay for $184.45.
More pics of the blue one in a moment. In 2022 there was a red version for sale with an asking price of $425. I don’t know what became of that one. You can see pics at the bottom of this post.
Now, back to the blue one.
Listed as a 1952, it’s not clear if this is actually a 3A or a CJ-3B chassis (or something else). The body looks to be a very rare Parkette CJ-3B body kit.
https://www.jeepwillysforsale.com/1952-jeep-cj3b-w-turbo-400-in-la-pine-or/
“Cj3b, high hood, 350 chev. Holly hi rise, weber carb, accel hei, turbo 400, b&m, cj5 running gear, everything underneath is rebuilt
Painless wire kit, best top safari top in great shape, l have a brand new extra passenger door, new seats moved back4″,tilt steering, all gauges work, 12 gallon gas tank, new warn hubs, new rear driveline, never wheeled, stored inside

Looks promising.

(03/21/2024) This jeep was built from a galvanized body and has a fiberglass Bobcat hood.

“Very nice 1946 Willys CJ-2A for sale. Mechanically VERY sound. Motor completely rebuilt 2,100 miles ago. Runs quiet, cool and very strongly. Zero knocks or pings. Locking hubs in great shape. Recent brake work done. I would drive this jeep anywhere (and often do).
Tires in excellent condition. Spare has never seen the road. Bestop top and doors included. Mirrors, seatbelts and brake lights/turn signals added.
At some point, a previous owner converted the windshield to a single pane and added electric wipers. Judging by the wiper mechanism this was done a long time ago. I have most of the hardware (not the inner frame) to convert back to the spilt windshields. Could easily be restored from parts available here for not a ton of money.
Many spare/extra parts/repair and service manuals included.”
Craig’s got this project for sale.
