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 is a good running, solid, fun 1948 Willys CJ2A. I have owned this Jeep for 21 years and originally rebuilt it in 1994 and militarized it last year. It runs, drives, stops excellent. It has a very solid body with Gillispie 319 paint. Under the hood it is clean and has been converted to 12v. The tires and tubes are less than a year old. The drivetrain has less than 2k miles on it since rebuild. Also included is a bunch of original Willys parts such as: an original 1942 MB grill, a back seat, 6v starters and generators, carbs, driveshafts, axels and more. This is a great old Jeep and I hate to see her go but really don’t have time to enjoy it like I should.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6200.
Steve forwarded this one. I think the grafting of the front end of the wagon gives this a unique look.

“I have an absolutely awesome 59 Willys Wagon Pro Street. It has a professionally built full square tube chassis and a Mustang 2 front end with rack and pinion steering. The 14 point cage was certified for 8.80s about 16 years ago. This was a drag car converted to a 9.0 second pro street car. It has a full roller, blown small block 400 punched to a 406 with an 8 quart oil pan, MSD ignition, E curve distributor and Wiend 671 Blower . Included are two 750 demon blower carbs and Dart 230 pro heads. Has NOS (never hooked up, never tried). The trans is a built Turbo 350 with a 3500 stall converter. Also has a 15 gallon fuel cell, wheelie bars and fan cooled oil and trans oil coolers under the rear. Dana 60 with 4.10s and detroit locker. Engine and trans have about 700 miles on them.
Wheels and Tires: Front and rear wheels are draglites. Rear tires are Mickey Thompson 33×19.5×15 Sportsman Pros. Front tires – Front Runners
HP? How does 650-750 sound?!?! And that’s without the 250 shot of nitrous! Can you say better than sex?!?!?
So let’s talk about what all of the above would cost. Buying the vehicle before engine and other grades – $30,000 with full square tube chassis, rack and pinion, etc. The engine alone would cost approximately $22,000 (with blower, etc.) NOS $1,000. Turbo 350 trans with stall converter another $1,500. Oil and Trans oil coolers $1,000. So all in – to build it yourself (AND THAT’S IF YOU COULD FIND ONE!) would cost you $55,000+!!!!!”
This has been upgraded to a 454.

This looks nice. Even better, it’s been broken in a little following its restoration.
“I’m listing my jeep that I have loved and continue to love, just trying to downsize a bit and refocus priorities. It has been a staple in my life for a while now and have participated in numerous parades and shows around Jacksonville. It is a 1944 Willys MB WWII jeep. It runs well and does not smoke. Has the original WWII flathead 4 cylinder w/ original 3 speed T-84 transmission. Brand new brakes/brake lines and rebuilt master cylinder, filled w/ straight silicone brake fluid. It utilizes an 8 volt battery and voltage regulator has been adjusted to charge it properly. Uses the original 6 volt lighting just burns a bit brighter. Has been running this way for over a year with no issues. Installed a new “original style” cloth covered wiring harness from Vintage Wiring of Maine, the best in the market. New original style fuel pump w/ the primer handle, new repro gas tank, new repro windshield frame. The tub, hood, seat frames; with the exception of the canvas, rubber and a few odds and ends, everything else is original WWII period. The hood number is original to the jeep as I found them under the paint and have photos attesting to this. It is a nice piece of history and an attention getter everywhere you go.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
This looks nice.

This looks to be a solid jeep.
“Rumor had it this Jeep was used in a few movies back in the day (anyone say: Kelly’s Heroes). The previous owner bought it and planned to restore it, after many years he was ready to let it go. He had rebuilt the Engine and put in a new Radiator, and converted it to 12 Volt system with Alternator. We bought it in this condition, pretty much “rust-free” but with a few dents and dings (Jeep in Dark Green-white wheels). We CHOSE to leave that, so it looked more like a Combat (Field) Jeep – not a “SHOW” JEEP!”

This vehicle was one of 3 jeeps that belonged to person and had nice weather proof shelter over head appeared not to have been abused or trashed” and limited use because of multiple “toys. This is not a patch plate or bondo special as some of these older Willys on ebay appear to be and even the under pasenger seat utility box is solid(rare).

The flathead 4 cylinder, T90 trans and spicer 18 TCase were all gone through and rebuilt by the Willys shop in Toledo Oregon. Everything was gone through.
