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 on eBay.
This toy is about 8″ long. Seller thinks it might be a Kempro Kit toy.
“Here is a nice sturdy toy car. Unknown maker. Quite possibly was a Kempro Co kit.
It is well made, and has been played with. I love Jeeps and have had a few. This sat on my desk at the shop. Unpacking some boxes the other day, I came across it again.
It shows some signs of age, but otherwise is in very good condition. Nice hardwoods used. ”
The seller has several of these neat Willys Aero brochures. It’s not anything jeep-related, but it’s a neat advertising piece. This advertisement dovetails with Willys 1951-1953 efforts to push the WILLYS brand. At the start of 1953 Willys-Overland introduced the Aero Falcon, the Aero Ace, and the Aero Lark.

(04/18/2018) Chad spotted another California modified Flattie. It’s nearly identify to three other jeeps (same body updates, same dash, same custom windshield, same Muller custom top, etc). The differences are slightly, such as this one has a black rear bumper rather than a chrome one like the others.
Here’s the ad …
“I’m selling my willys jeep. I hate to see it go but i don’t use it at all. Its in perfect shape. So many upgrades to the small block 305 v8. I don’t need to get rid of it so no low ballers. I am open to some trades and reasonable offers. I dont need help selling it and cash only. No scammers or tire kickers.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $13,900.

Jon spotted this 3A for sale. That’s one odd hood scoop. I wonder if it has an updated radiator that needed extra space?
“Very good classic Willy Jeep Runs excellent Rare in the market New tires New paint”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
I believe this is an early Koenig hardtop.
“Hard top and doors for a Willy’s/CJ5. I originally had got the top when it came with a ’73 CJ5 I had purchased, but since then it’s been replaced with a soft top and doors, so this has been sitting in my garage while I debated whether to sell it or not. I believe it was originally intended for older models (50s to 60s models), but it installed okay on the ’73
The doors come with the top. Windows are intact.”
Seller has other CJ-6 parts for sale, too.
https://galveston.craigslist.org/pts/d/houston-1957-cj6-willys-jeep-koenig/6870684126.html
“Early CJ6 Willys Jeep Koenig Ironworks Hardtop. The doors and outer roof skin have been media blasted. I have all of the hardware for the door sliding windows and sliding windows for the side panels. The rear hatch is missing, I never had it and dont know where it is. Seeing that it would basically be a flat piece of sheet metal with a top hinge it would probably be pretty easy to make one. The top is in reasonable condition, and I believe would only need some minor repair, new glass, and a rear hatch door to be 100%. I am asking $250 obo.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $650.
Appears to need some glass
“Cj2a Willys Jeep hardtop talk about rare to find 650 or best offer. Also willing to trade for M37. Dodge Power Wagon parts”
It looks like this might fit a CJ-3B.

UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $2500.
(11/29/2018) This oddity reminded me of the Willys Sportif prototype (seen at bottom).
Photo before paint:
“This is a Rat Rod, bucket, vintage, or What every you want to call it, this is what it is.
This is a one of a kind never will you see this again.
It was built in 86 so I am to believe but I think it was built earlier as it appears to have pre- mig welder welds that look cool.
This was a full custom job when it was done and someone left it for dead.
This is a 41 Willy’s chassis.
(Registered as a 41) Continue reading
UPDATE: SOLD. Was $3500.
(05/14/2019) Has no parking lights and lacks “Willys” on the hood, so this could be a mix of parts.
“In good condition for its age. Runs and drives, has tow bar, need new wire to connect headlights. Have heater for it, not installed. Have spare windshield and hard doors. Only selling to buy reliable vehicle for work. 4wd works great, has a lot of torqu”

Here’s a collection of ads published in the Saturday Evening Post between 1950 and 1951. This will prove useful as you read through the post underneath this one.
This introduction to the Jeepster book is curious for its lack of any ‘Jeep’ branding. I’m guessing this booklet was produced in 1948?
UPDATE: The Rally is this weekend. I hope everyone has a great time!
This year’s Willys Rally occurs late this month May 24th-27th in Moab, Utah. Roberto Flores produced another great bit of artwork for the event. T-shirts with this design are available for purchase.
UPDATE: Sold. Was $675.
That’s to Steve for reminding me to post these Rapport dual wheel adapters. I’d forgotten.
“Dual wheel hubs for cj2a – 3a – 3b Willys Jeep. Comes complete with 1 set of right hand studs and 1 set of left hand studs. There are 2 chips out of the flange on one of the hubs but they do not interfere with its work ability( see the photo). Shipping will be the actual cost of shipping a 47# box to you location.

These are even harder to find than the M-677s.
“Up for auction are Two EXTREMELY RARE original Kaiser JEEP M-676s (Military version of the Jeep FC-170) built only one year for the Marine Corp and delivered in 1964. These are becoming harder and harder to find because only about 65 were estimated to have been built.
The first M676 ( Red ) Is a complete survivor and mostly original except for being painted red many year ago ,the red is starting to peel off which exposes the original Marine Corp olive drab green under the red. It also has the military wooden bench seats in the back of the bed, the wood will need to be replaced. The Cerlist diesel engine is stuck causing the vehicle to be in a non-running condition at this time I do not know any history of it. It will need the cab corners and wiring repaired or replaced also has side windows cracked, there are only one set of front seats frames available and will need be reupholstered. As any restoration project goes it takes time to complete. It comes with a clear title and military tags. I do not have the time or resources to finish this rare and really cool piece of Marine Corp History.
The Second M676 (Brown) is the parts truck which is only has the cab, frame, front and rear differentials. The cab and doors are in really great shape, unfortunately the back of the cab was cut and the windshield is smashed, and it is also missing the Cerlist engine and transmission/transfer case and other parts. It does not have a title or military tags since it is the parts truck.”
This might be worth a look.

“If you are looking for a great project, look no further.
The Jeep runs and drives. All wheel cylinders and master cylinder have been rebuilt. New clutch/brake pivot bracket. The engine/ignition system is completely converted to 12 Volt. Front wheel bearings and hubs have been cleaned and packed with new grease, CUTLASS hubs.”
Some better pics would be great. Appears M-38ish.

Has an MB/GPW head.

“$1,100 OBO!!! This is what know about this cool little Jeep. It has the flathead 4 cylinder engine in it still. It will turn over with battery or by hand, but I have never tried to get it started. Come with spare tire, extra hood, and a new tailgate. I got this as a little project and never really got around to it. Now my wife and I are have our first baby. So just need to sell it. I’m asking what I’m into it, minus some time and money from driving back from Colorado to pick it up. Call or text with any questions.”
