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 .
Sounds like it runs and drives?

“Restored 1946 Willys CJ2A, cloned to look like a WWII MB Jeep
Runs and drives as it should and passed MA inspection.
Lots of fun to drive , everyone will waive and salute, great for parades.
Sold as is seen in the photos , there is no top for this jeep.
The Jeep is stored inside with climate control on a trickle charger.
These old jeeps are not meant for highway speeds and you can expect 45 MPH
I will help with transportation arrangements and loading if needed.”
This one has an unusual hardtop.

“What you’re looking at is a 1956 willys cj5 with a clear title, I’m selling for parts or a project. Though it is a little rough around the edges, this old jeep is very complete and stock minous the seats and my favorate part, the engine. Very early in its age, the 4 cylender was removed and it was hotroded with a Studibaker champion flat 6. It does run but needs a little work to make it drivable. The brakes need gone through, right now the pedal sits on the floor. It needs a water pump. It’s got a new fuel pump, new points&condenser, new coil, new ignition switch, new muffler. The body is in rough shape but could be repared. My plan was to preserve it the way it looks and get it back on the road but I have too many other projects. I’m asking $3500 for it but I’m open to cash offers only. No trades.”
It’s a project. Thanks to Bill for sharing.

“I believe this is a 1943 Willy’s mb or gpw not shure. It was a working project but i found another hobby and ran out of funds. So I’m selling as is, has a new set of tires and has been sitting for about 3 years. Has all the seats that need upholstery. The engine runs but fuel tank has a leak , the clutch needs adjusting and never got to it. I put new gages and rewired electrical, like I said it’s a working project, the frame has a serial number 50675 stamped on it . I have no title for this vehicle, so I’m selling as salvage. I also have extras that will go with the sale , 2 gal. Military green paint new, also have another extra engine like the one on the photo placed on an engine mount see photo, also the original radiator and a set of 5 rims for that type of vehicle, and lots of other parts. All go with this sale. I am retired and and will be moveing to a smaller home cant take everything with me so selling all as is.”

“Cj2A tub. Left sided spare tire bracket, called a “left tub” I was told there was only around 10,000 made but either way it’s a half way decent tub that will get your project moving. Better suited for a driver or rock bouncer, or if you’ve got the time it’s restorable.”
UPDATE: price bumped to $10,000.
(03/21/2024) This has been stored and hasn’t run in a while. Seller must sell. Price listed might just be a place holder.

“1955 Willys Pickup customized from Willys Jeep Station Wagon, 1978 Corvette 327, 1982 GMC S10 Chassis, & T5 Transmission
This unique vehicle combines the classic charm of a ‘55 Willys with the beauty of a woody wagon, and powered by a completely rebuilt 327 engine.
The concept and work has been done by a lifelong craftsman and classic car restorer/enthusiast. This project took careful planning and hundreds of meticulous hours, over a span of eight years.
This video covers Short Cut, a concept compact throwback jeep that lacks a top and doors shared by Bill. The video also describes this jeep as “cheap”, but I suspect the price-point on one of these would still be substantial. If this ever went to production, I expect buyers would be looking for top options at some point.

Thanks to bill, here’s a short video showing a lineup of stainless steel jeeps for sale in the Philippines.
Bill shared this video of a guy walking through and driving a Massimo mini-jeep. I’ve seen ads for these posted in various FB and Craigslist ads, but this is the first video I’ve seen. At $2500 through Tractor Supply, they aren’t a trivial purchase, but I have to say they do look kind of fun!
UPDATE: Forgot the link …
