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 .
This appears solid.

Congrats to Hugh for completing his fiberglass build. Just in time for summer! Next on his plate is a M-151 Mutt project.
Hugh wrote, “Just got my fiberglass bodied cj2a back from my cousin who painted it. Chose olive drab because we figured if we scratched it off road it wouldnt break our hearts like a shiny paintjob would. Well i consider this jeep done so now we can start on the 48 cj2a with the m151 mutt drivetrain. That jeep is going to be an interesting project.”
Seth discovered this one-of-a-kind boat for sale. Perhaps the builder was inspired by the Panther water car?
“This is a 1972 All Fiberglass Jeep CJ5 Tub built up on a Fiberglass hull. It has a 50hp Johnson outboard on a custom bracket with power trim & tilt. It has all nautical lights for running at night plus all the vehicle lights work including head lights, tail light and blinkers. This is a 2014 build.
So let me tell you, this thing is an absolute blast, grab a friend turn up the stereo and you will be turning heads everywhere you take her and you can take her anywhere because its great in any water due to the two 12 ft wind surfing boards that act as outriggers so its real stable and not tippy at all plus it has a full windshield. This thing is custom everything from the beautiful paint job to the detailed shifter console and dash board.
Also comes with custom fitted boat trailer.”

(04/09/2013) There can’t be too many Parkette bodied jeeps with a Bobcat hood in Ohio. The cage appears to go down to the frame. It looks identical to the roll cage in the first picture in this post.

Ed Bray and his parents raced jeeps for years throughout the West. They built two Fiberglass Bobcat bodied race jeeps. In fact the family was friends with both Paul Parker (Parkette Fiberglass Body manufacturer) and Fred Weis (Bobcat Fiberglass body Manufacturer).
Their first jeep with a bobcat body was built on a military frame and powered by a 327 with 365 HP. Below is Ed’s mother at the start of a race in Calgary where she won an obstacle race. A year ago Ed spotted this jeep, still powered by the same motor (he recognized the sound), driving in Spanaway, Washington.
The next jeep the family built in 1976 started with a factory ordered CJ-7 frame. They stretched a Bobcat body 13″ and installed a Chevy 350/350 LT1 motor set back 8″ with a B&M Turbo 400 w/reverse manual shifter. They added a Wagoner 44 in the rear and a Scout 44 in the front. They raced the jeep in SCORE events, ran the Mint 400 four times, and tried the BAJA 500 in 1980, but DNF’d. The first picture below is from Riverside and the second from the Mint 400.
Ed’s father Don died in 2001. Ed has been refurbishing the family CJ-3A that started it all.
The body and front clip looks like fiberglass to me.
“Was planning on restoring it but i dont have the time. I have the motor out of it and tore down. Has potential. Call or Text at (518)-320-5090”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
It’s a project. That could be a Bobcat Fiberglass body.

Started as a project three years ago and haven’t touched it in a while. Motor ran good when I started working on it. Has a ton of new parts. All new brakes, lines master and wheel cylinders.

This fiberglass bodied jeep includes an overdrive. It hasn’t been touched in a while, but there appears to be value here.
“53 Willys Jeep. Project. Set up for small Chevy. 3 speed manual tranny. Dana 18 with Warn O/D. Fiberglass body. Stock Dana axles. Stock Willys frame. Has not ran in probably decades. Purchased by my late Father in the early 90’s, and put where it sits. Original Vin plate intact. Hasn’t been tagged since 1988. Definitely a project. Will NOT part out.
Was told the little Chevy in it, is a 327. But I have no way to confirm it. If interested, you would need to come look at it. Like I said, it’s a project. It’s being sold as is. Have not been able to find the title, but I am looking. It existed at one time. $1000 obo. The Vin alone is worth….”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $350.
This has never been used.
“I have a Fiberglass jeep body from Malotte that has never been used. Fiberglass is in great condition and is the race model so its very light. Jeep body is already pre-cut to be lengthened in the right areas, but you can just use the stock lengths as well if you don’t want to do that. Body has never been painted.
First $350 obo gets this unused race jeep body
This body costs over double that new”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
(06/06/2012) This has been converted to 2WD. The body is all fiberglass, though it is the type with the rear wheel well fender flap molded into it.

(02/18/2013) I believe the body is fiberglass and the front clip is metal. This has a rear PTO I believe, too.
“This Willys Jeep is ready to go anywhere, has the original 4 cylinder godevil in it, PTO works great, 2 new front seats, new tires, front half original, rear half fiberglass, it looks great and runs great lots of fun to drive and gets thumbs up every where we go, Is converted to a 12 volt system. asking 8500, clear title in hand, Thanks.”
