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 .
Brett spotted this. It’s pretty rough. Lots of pics.
“About 5 years ago it was driven around the farm Motor was rebuilt in 1974. I’m helping a disabled gentleman who still owns this and doesn’t know how to use a computer. Text or email with an offer.”

This includes a PTO and snow plow. Looks like a good price. I haven’t see too many of the Bonanza II hardtops.
“I have a ’61 willys jeep that needs some TLC. A project that never got started. It has an inline 4 cyl, manual tranny with hi/low range, pto winch and a snow plow lift(I still have the plow if interested). A little bubble of rust under the driver door, frame looks good.

It runs and includes a plow. The hardtop looks in good shape too.
“1961 Willys / CJ Jeep – 4 speed manual transmission, factory 4 cyl. eng., mileage unknown.
Runs but not well, might need a carb rebuild / tune or something, As you see it is how I bought it, I bought last year to use as plow truck for my property but am sick of tinkering with it I just dont know enough to fix it. Has Factory plow set up on it (works), the engine does not knock, has newer clutch, tires are ok, 4wd works, transmission seems good.
Interior is pretty much gone, body has rust, not the prettiest thing but parts wise and mechanically there is alot of good value here. It needs brakes, battery, radiator, maybe carb rebuild, knowledge and some time. Would be great for parts or with effort a good plow truck
Email me for contact info or any questions, thanks.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200 without the V8
(11/13/2010) That top looks like an old Sears & Roebuck Aluminum top, rather than a custom top.
“This is a old military jeep that someone has put an old ford flathead V8 in.Has some rust issues and a funkey homemade top.No title but the same guy has owned it since the beginning of time,comes with bill of sale.”

It is rusty and rough, but appears complete.
“Old Willys came with the house when I bought it. I was told it ran up until the previous owner died in ’07. Make me a reasonable offer and she’s yours. I just don’t have the time to mess with it. Trades for 4×4 quad or sled considered.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000. Might have a Porter & Reed hardtop.
(09/29/2010) I can’t tell much about it from the pics. It appears pretty stock.
“The jeep is in fairly good condition i cleaned it up a lot with the power washer. Needs a battery and tune up and should start rite up, it was running last time it was parked but was sitting in a shed for a couple years. It still uses a 6v battery. I was in the process of restoration but i just dont have the time and money to do it. Is a great restoration vehicle for someone thats not in tobad of shape. It still has the winch on the vehicle and i have the door pieces and other bars that came with it. I also have the original title for the jeep.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2250
(11/13/2010) There might be some rust on the sides of this.
“1948 Willys CJ2A – $2250 (OBO Elk River). Ready for Restoration. Appears mostly original, front bumper was replaced with stronger unit, it was once used as a plow jeep. Has aluminum roof unit, dual underdash heaters, very nice treads on the tires. We bought this two years ago, it has been sitting in our garage, we’re moving and hope it finds a good home. It ran when put away, motor turns fine. More photos available upon request.”
A reader named Andy contacted me the other day about a flatfender that he purchased. He was told it was a former airport Jeep. Anyone recognize some of these mods? How about them rims!
Andy writes, “No data tags inside the body, but need to check the firewall tomorrow. The guy I bought the jeep from says that he saw another one with the same wheels on it at the hunting camp where he got this jeep …. There is some use of aluminum in this body, goes hand in hand with the airport shop mod theory …. It appears that the patches in the floors and sides were not really needed at the time they were done.. the body was still very sound in those areas. Looking in the wheel wells, you can see the original not rusted body covered by a layer of metal from the top. I think you may be right on the combination of manuf. top with some airport shop ‘extras’. Those doors sure are unique, I have not seen such before ..”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500. This could have a Porter & Reed hardtop.
“This is a 1948 Willys Jeep. It is my grandfathers jeep, and is in great condition. It is parade ready. The tires and brakes are good and the engine runs fine, and has a heater inside of the cab. Its a great vehicle to drive around the farm, go fishing in, and showing off in town. The cab is obviously not origional, but in good condition and has its advantages. Great for any veteran or anyone who has great respect and passion for this era, as my grandfather does.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500
The seller of the body has thrown in a running CJ-3A for combo price of $2500. I have to say, I’d really like this combo. I think that’s a good price.
“1952 jeep. runs and drives.comes with new fiberglass body. $2500.00 or maybe make an offer? teach the kids how to drive.family resto project,who knows”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2100. Has a Kelly hardtop.
I’m not sure how many CJ-6s there are in Canada, so this might be a pretty rare vehicle.
“1964 Willys CJ6 has swapped in 302 engine. It’s complete but needs work, not drivable.
Fors 302 with T90 transmission and Dana 18 transfer-case with warn overdrive. Has old metal hard top and doors. Front bench seat no rear seats. Includes spare CJ6 frame with diffs and a F-head engine also have another complete F head. This jeep has valid BC registration.”

The hardtop looks in great shape. It appears there’s another CJ-5 right next to it.
“

This looks to have a solid Beck Hardtop. This might not be a bad price.
