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.
(07/04/2024) Glenn shared this low mileage CJ-3B with under 3000 miles.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/818041813678802
“All original no rust even has the original tires on it. CASH only no pieces of paper with flowers and your wifes name on it.2700 original miles”
Dave’s got this CJ-7 for sale.If you have questions, email him a swordbearer347 @ gmail.com (remove spaces from around the @).
“Offered here for sale is most probably the nicest, most original 1978 Jeep CJ7 there is. What is seen in the photographs is all original except for tires and steps. Body, paint wheels, all the chrome and the Warn #8274, 8,000 pound electric winch are all original. There is no detectable rust on/in the body. Inside, the originality continues with seats, dashboard, floor lining and mats. It has a four speed transmission with extremely low first gear. It has 57,413 original miles on it. The engine is the original 258 cubic inch 6 cylinder Jeep motor.
This Jeep has been a “show” Jeep and “garage queen” almost all its life. I’m the third owner as far as I know. The previous owner never had it off pavement. I’ve had it off pavement three times, gently. Flawless performance. It has never been allowed to be stored out of doors. Always garaged. Continue reading
This project includes a Koenig 550 barn-door hardtop (with data plate).

“Offered for sale is a 1960 Willys CJ-5 with a Koenig 550 hard top. It has the EXTREMELY rare optional vertical doors in the rear. The motor is a 1970’s Chevy V8.
It needs the front end rebuilt. I parked it with the intent to restore it about a year ago. It ran great. If you bring a battery, it might start, but I can’t promise anything. Needs pressure plate.
Also included in the deal is a set of steel wheels and some really nice mud tires. The front left tire has a slow leak and will go flat after a couple days, but you can air it up to put it on your trailer. (You’ll need an air tank, my hose won’t reach.) Let me know if you have any questions I hate to sell the old girl, it’s been in the family a long time, but I’ve faced the fact I don’t have the time or money to give her the love she deserves. Price is OBO Would be a great project, it turns a lot of heads on the road. 765-two78-8two26”
This late model 3B runs and drives with a Koenig hardtop. Looks like a good price.

“1948 Jeep 4×4 4cylinder. Great little deer lease Jeep. Nothing wrong with it , runs good. Not built for comfort and smooth ride but will go anywhere.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $3500.
Runs and drives, but is a project. The “top” or cover looks to be made of fiberglass. I don’t know if this was a one-off or not, but I could see this being popular with the folks jeeping in the desert back in the day (much lighter than a Muller Top for example).

“1953 “high Hood” has a Ford 302 V8 everything else is original. Runs and drives but it is a project. I drive it local and have taken it hunting several times. Good little jeep but I don’t have time to finish it right.”
This one has an unusual hardtop.

“1946 Willys Jeep, CJ-2A, selling for my dad, has snow plow, last time out running was 8 years ago.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2850.
I’m unsure how much value is here. The hardtop is unusual.
“For sale 1947 Willy’s overland Jeep been setting for a while needs restoration great project has clean Nebraska title 2850$”
Blaine shared this project. It appears to have a Sears Deluxe brand hardtop.
https://portland.craigslist.org/clk/pts/d/vancouver-1956-willys-jeep-cj5/7792380493.html
“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.”
This seems worth a look. Someone did a nice job of fitting that Ford hardtop onto the jeep.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/8539182559472910
“This is a legit ’43 Willys MB GPW (WW2 Jeep) with some killer, custom additions! It’s mostly stock, at someone point someone swapped in a ‘newer’ F-Head engine and added the hood bump to clear the carburetor. A cab roof and rear panel were cut from a ’32-33 Ford pickup and fit onto the MB, with the factory visor! The hard doors are home-built. It also has a custom rear step bumper, a couple 5 gallon gas cans in the bed, a draw bar for towing and a killer bench seat in great condition! The body is pretty straight and fairly solid, but there are some spots of rust. Mostly the floor supports under the ‘bed’, as it held water over the years. Unfortunately the F-Head engine is locked up solid… it’ll need a new engine. I do have a clean title in hand for it.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $21,500.
(05/18/2024) Nice looking 3B with some updates.

Blaine shared this rare Alaskan Postal Scrambler jeep.

“For sale 1 Alaskan postal truck 1 of 250 made right hand drive 4wd 258 i6 999 3 speed automatic dana 300
Under 70,000 mile jeep spare tire included some extra parts if interested in a Ford 9 inch swap we have a housing core available but that will cost extra.”
There might be some value here. Great vintage slot rims. It looks like it has a pretty good roll cage. No engine at the $2000 price.

This jeep lived its unused-life in a heated garage. This jeep only has 1500 miles and that’s believable given the condition shown in the pics. Thanks to John for sharing this one.
https://hymanltd.com/vehicles/7548-1962-jeep-cj-5/
“Purchased new by Rhode Island-based Scarpetti Oldsmobile for exclusive use as a snowplow, a letter from dealership owner Edward Scarpetti indicates that the odometer’s current claim of around 1,500 miles since new is to be absolutely believed.
A lifetime of storage inside a heated garage—except during snowfall—is evident in the exceptional original condition of the well-preserved paint and overall patination. Both the dealership’s hand-lettering and white-wall off-road tires are believed to be original as well, alongside the rarely preserved metal hardtop from Koenig Iron Works of Houston, Texas. The white model 520 “Jiffy Full Cab” top features removable doors and a built-in, high-powered backup light for plow duty, and presents a delightful contrast to the Jeep’s bright President Red paint.
Other than the removable hardtop and a period-correct, dash-mounted Oldsmobile badge from the late 1950s, this CJ -5 is unmodified and features its original 2.2-liter (134 ci) powertrain. CJs were roundly the most capable factory off-roaders of the 20th century, and this CJ-5 is no different with its two-speed 4×4 transfer case and locking front hubs, all backed by the original three-speed manual transmission—more than enough hardware to tackle any early CJ rally or enter sympathetic service as a ranch shuttle.”
This was listed at an estate sale just over a week ago. The sellers thought it worth $25k, but obviously it isn’t. It does look to have a column shift and tool indents.

“1946 Willys Jeep, Rare, great project vehicle. All original parts. Will take best offer. It is worth about 25k
Come see it in person September 6th, 7th, and 8th, 9-3during our estate sale.”

“1946 cj2a engine is rebuilt with new cam and lifters, bored with new pistons, crank was turned,valves regroups and everything else that goes with a rebuild. I got this out of a clean dry garage where it had been since 1981. I have all the parts to put it back together that are not in pics. Radiator, generator, starter, carb , full exhaust some of it is new. My next move was to do brakes and engine components. This Jeep has a rare Sears and Roebuck hardtop kit from the 60sinstalled on it. I have two extra engines and some other parts that I will sell after the Jeep goes. Price is $6500. Send me your number and I will call. I’m willing to get as many pictures as you want for serious buyers. “
This appears solid and includes an early Koenig hardtop and a plow.

“1952 Jeep with snow plow and extra parts. Bought for an ice fishing rig and no longer use. Runs and drives like it should. Open to reasonable offers. Listing for my Grandpa.”

There may be some value here. The hardtop looks to be an early Koenig model.

“Original 1948 Willys body including cab, doors, hood, tailgate, and grill Located in Gillette, WY $1500 obo”
TJ spotted this CJ-5 with a Sears Deluxe hardtop and Warn winch that’s part of an estate sale.
https://portland.craigslist.org/wsc/pts/d/banks-automotive-estate-sale/7778264678.html
“956 Jeep CJ. Rusty floor pan.”
I suspect the cargo area bed has been patched or rebuilt. This has a Beck or Kelly hardtop.

“1954 Jeep CJ-3b Runs excellent. 6 volt, 134 F-head. 3 speed manual. New battery, wheel bearings, master cylinder, and brakes. New carburetor, with old one included. Looks to be all original drivetrain. Frame good, body is ok, patches. Has transferable registration. Plow works, used last winter.”
The warn winch plus the Beck hardtop (with original data tag) may mean there’s some value here. No title.

“Remember driving it when I was a kid in the pasture I know it needs transmission repaired doesn’t have title as is will trade for a adult fourwheeler no I will not give out my number I’ll answer all your questions on messenger”
John shared this CJ-3A. It’s a bit rough, but maybe someone can use some parts.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/3837509063187895
“Just rescued from the farm! Way cool, completely original plow Jeep with a Koenig Iron Works hard top. Engine is stuck, but I don’t think it’s badly stuck because the carb is freely functioning. This is a great foundation for a restoration and priced right.”
That’s about the shiniest sears-branded hardtop that I’ve seen.
