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 .

If there is anything else you don’t see please ask and we will look for it. 100% WWII engine. I am guessing 1943 based upon the serial number but not sure. Stand comes with it.

This Essential Special Service Tools brochure by the Miller Manufacturing Company appears to have been first published in late 1945 or early 1946 (I’m assuming this based on the Willys-Cars-Trucks-J sign on the cover). It was then updated with this second edition in December of 1948.
These aren’t best scans, so I’ve had to do repairs in Photoshop. I’ve actually had this digital brochure scan for several years, but finally had a chance to assembled the scans yesterday, after Maury noted that this has the Willys sign, which would make it the latest document we’ve found with the Willys-Cars-Trucks-J sign on it. There’s a companion brochure for Trucks in the post below.

I can’t remember seeing a trailer with that type of dump slot.
“1952 M100 Jeep/Willys cargo trailer. It has a 2″ ball coupler (non-stock), it has a slide rear panel off the back end (can be redone to original or use a tailgate design), 6-round plug for a connector, needs rear taillights replaced. Other than that, its pretty much original. Good to decent bed with no rust holes, good floor, drains still work, original folding standing leg, original parking brake handle and its usable, minimal dents from 66 yrs of use and original id tags (painted over). Tires are in good to great shape, bearings/seals as well (last pull was 5hrs and had no excessive bearing heat).
Many use these for camping, expedition overlanding, complete a restoration of a Jeep, Willys military setup, etc.
KS requires no title for small trailers. I will provide a bill of sale.”

Adam is selling this combo of CJ-5s.
View all the information on LetGo
“Two CJ’s. One from the East Coast and one from the West.
Long story short… I bought the ‘67 from CA with the intent to use it for parts for the ‘68. The CA Jeep was in such great original condition I opted to restore it instead.
Both are V6 3 Speed. Both run though the green one would need some assembly to get started and significant body work to get back on the road.
Message for more pics and info.
Jeeps are being sold as a pair. “
Has five patches on the outside of the body.

“1948 willys Jeep. This is a great fun little Jeep it was built back when everything was built to last and when Jeeps were tough as tanks. This Jeep has spent most of its life cruising around the back roads of Nelson county and only shows 90,000 miles on the speedometer, it was modified in the mid-50s and a homemade very well-engineered hard top was added along with removable doors and heat from a mid 50s Dodge and has remained virtually the same since.
It runs and drives great and is very dependable with loads of new parts, it has new brakes, new tires, new exhaust and the carburetor was rebuilt, all of the gauges work as well as all of the lights. It shifts through the gears perfect and the four wheel drive works great too. I can’t really think of anything that it needs. This little tank has some minor rust in the rear tailgate and a few spots around the rockers but it is far from being a rust bucket it actually has a really cool look to it just like it sets the scratches, rough paint, chipped paint and small amounts of rust give it character. If you’re looking for something fun to just play around with and cruise the back roads, take up into the mountains to go camping, hunting or something fun to have around your property this would be a great Jeep.”
Here’s an odd item.
https://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ank/pts/d/shafer-pig-rack-for-early-willys-pickup/6867579098.html
“Pig rack for Willys pickup, been in storage for many years. Very unique item. Has sliding rear lift gate. Came off ’52 Willys that worked the stockyards down in St. Paul MN”
No pics provided.
https://lansing.craigslist.org/pts/d/wyandotte-cj2a-full-metal-top/6881744875.html
“Full Metal top with doors, came off a 1946 CJ2A, I think it is aluminum, it has a “Cyclone” emblem on the tailgate, it has driver side 6 Volt fan, and 6 Volt dome lights on both door posts. Glass has been replaced with plexiglass, metal is weather beaten but in fair condition.”
Unclear if seller will sell any parts at this point, but you never know.
https://kansascity.craigslist.org/pts/d/kansas-city-ford-gpw-willys-mb/6888087648.html
“I have an assortment of parts, engines, frames and accessories – enough to build two full wwII style jeeps. I also have a 1951 DK trailer, whole and complete, as well as a 1942 MB trailer in parts. Im looking to sell it all eventually, or one vehicle at a time. Im putting this ad out there to gauge interest. Not sure what Im asking just yet, and I can provide pictures as asked.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $1400.
