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 .

“1954 Willy’s Jeep with Koenig Iron Works hard top. 47k miles. I drove it onto the trailer, will need to be trailered from my house, unless I get to it. Original components(almost original) 12v conversion. Great Jeep to project or parade.”

UPDATE: Price dropped to $16,000.
(06/18/2022) The pics suggest this is a good restoration. This has a rear PTO gearbox.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1623696148201363
“I have a 1948 CJ2A with rear PTO. It’s all restored to original. The restoration was done roughly 15 years ago but looks like it was done less than that. This was all done recently as it sat for so long: New fuel pump, plugs, wires, cap, rotor, condenser, oil lines, fuel pump to carb line, carb was completely rebuilt, new master cylinder, bell and crank for the steering. I’m sure I’m missing a few things. Have new wheel cylinders but haven’t installed them. Comes with tire chains, a bucket of carbs (3-4) a crate of other parts and a hard cab that needs to be finished. Runs and drives. $18,500. Open to trades”

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
Appears in great shape.

“A little bit of rust in the bed and a little on the front grill, it runs just fine. Mileage is guesswork. Almost 100% original except the bed is welded diamond plate, painted red to match. Interior is in excellent condition. New tires and new battery. Spent her life first on a small farm taking produce to market and then sat in the interior of a Jeep Sales Room as a floor display and driven rarely in local parades. We have a written history but it exceeds the limits on this platform”
Looks in good shape.

Bill shared what looks to be a good price on a Jeepster. This was also highlighted by Barnfinds: https://barnfinds.com/reliable-rare-cruiser-1950-willys-overland-jeepster/

“Low miles barn find Willys Overland Jeepster convertible. Runs and drivers great(for what it is) new head gasket, new brake master cylinder, new fuel pump, and more! Reliable rare cruiser. Car show favorite.”
John shared this Surrey that has been sprayed with a lighter coat of paint. I discovered I have pics of this from at least a decade ago that were part of Bruce Agan’s archives, so it’s been this color for a while.
https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1960-willys-dj3a-surrey
“This 1960 Willys DJ-3A Surrey is one of a reported 1,000 examples produced between 1959 and 1964, and approximately 200 of the 1,800 miles shown were added since the vehicle was purchased by the seller in 2011. The body has been repainted light pink, and it features 15″ steel wheels, a rear-mounted spare tire, and chrome bumpers as well as vinyl upholstery that matches the pink- and white-striped removable top, spare tire cover, and sides. Power is from a 134ci inline-four paired with a column-shifted three-speed manual transmission. Now showing 1,800 miles, this Surrey is offered in California with an owner’s manual, original sales paperwork, and a clean Montana title in the name of the seller’s business.”
UPDATE: This may be an M-201 (at the very least it has some M-201 parts). Thanks to Gaston for pointing it out.
John shared this auction for an MB rebuilt in Europe, along with a trailer.
https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1944-willys-mb-4
“This Willys MB is said to have been refurbished in Europe and was imported to the United States before it was purchased by the current owner in 2017. The truck is finished in olive drab green with US Army–style graphics, and power comes from a 134ci “Go-Devil” flathead inline-four paired with a three-speed manual gearbox and a dual-range transfer case. Equipment includes 16″ steel wheels, military tires, a rear-mounted spare, turn signals, a folding windshield, a tan soft top, a rear pintle hitch, pioneer tools, a jerrycan, seats with tan canvas cushions, a dash-mounted rifle holder, and radio equipment. The accompanying single-axle utility trailer is equipped with taillights, a canvas top panel, and troop-style seating with tan cushions. This Willys MB and trailer are now offered by the seller on behalf of the current owner with canvas doors and side panels, an inoperable rifle, and Arizona titles for both the Willys and the trailer.”
The ad states this has combat rims, but they don’t appear in the pics.

“I have a very nice, mostly original 1949 Willys Jeepster VJ2. It runs, stops, and drives very well. It has the original seat covers under protective covers, the original floor mats, again under protective floor mats, and the original interior panels, working heater, instrument cluster, and even the original radio that works. It has the original L134 engine with the 3 speed transmission and the overdrive. The top is after market, but it is custom to accommodate the very rare glass rear window. The beauty wheel trim rings and the hub caps are also original. It has new modern tires. All the chrome work is original and in amassing condition. It has a very small rust area on the passenger side floor behind the front seat. I think this one belongs in a museum or in a private collection that can do it justice.”
This low-mileage (less than 18k) late-model Commando was shared by Bill. Looks ready to go. It is featured on Barnfinds.com.

Dan shared this nice looking CJ-2A with a Kelly 23 series hardtop. This HiBid auction ends with a soft close in 23 days. This does have some unusual looking hubs, which I imagine are just a cover over the original hubs?
