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 looks good on the outside (though the tailgate appears a little odd). The cab needs some work and wiring.

“I have a nice 1959 Jeep truck for sale. I have done some updates over the years. Updates include relined gas tank, brakes, hoses, belt, plugs, tires, tow bar, paint, etc. I had it painted back to original as best as I could.
It still needs a parking brake cable and a vent window is cracked. It has low mileage and was a barn find when I bought it. It was all original and had only surface rust. It is what attracted me to it. It has the strong six super hurricane engine and does not smoke. It runs strong and the clutch is good. I was told it is a rare 1 ton model. I have a clear Texas title. The only reason I would sell it is I have a CJ-2A also and do not need two Jeeps. I think it is better than a new Razor, mule or any other ATV since it is in another class for the money. I have a bus bench seat for additional riders in the bed. Please call for a showing or test drive.”
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was listed on eBay.
“Here is a classic that I hate to part with but its time to spend some quality time traveling.

This looks in good shape.
“These 47 Sedan Deliverys are hard to find, especially in this condition. This vehicle is an older hot rod that has a 1964 Chevrolet 327 c.i. 4bbl. with a Turbo 350 transmission and B&M shifter. This power feeds a 57 Chevrolet 3:56 positraction rear end. This panel has power steering and power disk brakes on front from a 72-76 Camero. Has Steward Warner gauges and tach, updated upholstery and good tires. Tires are 14” front and 15″rear with beauty rims and baby moon caps. It still has the planar front suspension wih the transverse leaf spring and needs new shocks, which are redily available. This is an older hot rod that has many updates incorporated into the running of this vehicle. The paint shows a little wear and it needs a new passengers side windshield and door window as seen in the pictures. The side windows have been updated to one piece with the removal of the stationary vent windows. This vehicle is licensed until May of 2013 and is comletely road worthy. Drive it while you refresh the cosmetics and enjoy the “hot summer nights”. Asking $6800 but open to offers. No trades and I have plenty of projects. Call Hap at (559) 960-6771. I will not respond to text so don’t waste your time, call if your really interested.”

(07/24/2012) Except for the giant hole in the dash, this looks pretty good for the price.

“This 1961 Willys Jeep has the following features;

• 4 Wheel Drive
• Warren Hubs

This great jeep was owned by a local Ford dealer for hunting at his Tahoe cabin.”
This appears to be a solid jeep.
“1946 Willys
23,936 Miles
Runs great, shifts great, 4WD and 4WD Low gears work great.
Current License in California.
This is what I know. Willys built this model Jeep for the Military only from 1942 to 1945. Then in 1946 Willys offered this model to the public. However very few were sold because there was a glutton of Jeeps available through Military auctions.
Was this a Military or Civilian ? I don’t know.
This Jeep has spent almost all of its life on a ranch on San Diego County.
I just purchased a brand new fuel gauge that needs to be hooked up.
The only thing this jeep needs is a passenger side seat frame to match the drivers side.
And maybe a straight front bumper.
The value of these Jeeps are all over the place. This is no show car but it may very well be the best running and most reliable Jeep around. . . .”

Clutch is frozen, but otherwise looks solid.
“1948 Willys jeep CJ2A that has sat for about 4 years. I put new plugs, battery, master cylinder for the brakes and clutch, new fuel pump, and cleaned carburator and the the tank. The jeep runs and the motor is still strong. The jeep has good tires, rhino lined, new seat covers, seat belts, warn lockouts, tow bar and gun rack. The only think that is still wrong with jeep is the slave cylinder for the clutch is froze up from sitting. I have grown tired of working on it and putting money in it and decided to sell it. The guy I bought it off used it to take to Colorado and assured me that four wheel drive and transmission was all working good when parked. I went thru the gears and the transfer case goes in and out of four wheel easy. The last time it was on the road was 2008.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8500
(05/23/2012) “The jeep is in great running condition, and still has the original L-134 inline four cylinder that starts right up and drives, no problems. The jeep shifts three on the tree. Two wheel drive. Shows 97 miles on the odometer. Always stored inside and the condition reflects that. It was partially restored by the previous owner, and received new paint and upholstery. Tires are in great shape. Let me know if you would like to come and see it.”
Rob was waiting for family in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, while on vacation when he spotted this nice looking truck.
He writes, “I went out into the parking lot to see if I could find some old Jeeps and there it was in the parking lot , nice looking truck. Did not find the owner. Hope the pictures turned out. Rob.”
This has a V6 in it right now.
“For sale: 1943 Willys Military Jeep , has V6 engine in car now, but have the original 4 cylinder engine on a stand. New interior , new tires. Runs good. Best offer.”

This FC supposedly spent it’s life running the railroad tracks. No railroad wheels left according to the seller.
“Hello Gearheads. Here is a very restorable, rare vehicle for your consideration. A ton of great parts, or easy restoration. It is a 1962 Jeep FC170 truck that is in great unrestored condition. It of course is 4wd, with a snow blade, ( hydraulics have been rebuilt )… Great driver that runs like a top. Only 72,983 actual miles. Ex- railroad truck that spent its life running up and down the tracks, has instruction plate, but no wheels for running the tracks ( sorry to all you hazzard boys ) Has new radiator, water pump, brakes, new brake and fuel lines. Completely rebuilt bed with a substantial metal plate floor ready for the toughest thing you can throw into it. Original red paint under primer, all wiring original and proofed with everything working. needs only tires for state inspection. easy to bring to tip top condition or use as is. Give me a call with any questions.”
This looks like a solid M-38. It still runs 24 volt.
“I am selling my 1951 military willys jeep. The tub is all original as is the motor and it has O rust. The floors are as solid as when they came off the production line. It is set up with the 24 volt system and has 2 new batteries. The tires and tubes are in brand new condition and i do have a spare tire and rim. It comes with a as i was told old new stock canvas top. The bows on the jeep are new and yet need to be painted. The wiring in the jeep does need to be redone as it is the original wiring. the wiring is good for starting and stopping the engine. The engine is solid and starts and runs beautifully. The high and low 4 wheel drive work great as does the 2 wheel drive. The jeep has a couple spots that for some odd reason were spray painted black but that is a easy fix with a can on military match spray paint. I am a ww2 reenactor and i was going to use this jeep but i decided to go with a motorcycle instead. If you have any questions please feel free to call me at 616-450-2194 ask for Tim. If you are a craigs list scam artist dont waste my time with your ass wipe offers. thanks for looking”
