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: **SOLD** Was $3500.
For the condition, this looks like a good price. There just aren’t that many DJ-3As in good condition for sale out there.
“Pretty clean 1962 Jeep flat fender, 2 wheel drive, has top, runs and is driveable. This is NOT your normal rust bucket, 99% rust free!! Please call my brother, he is the owner.”
Unclear if this runs or not. There is supposed to be little rust.
“M38 which needs restoration. 99% rust free body. Spare parts included. Must see in person. $1500 FIRM. 636-296-0199”

UPDATE: The seller contacted me and wanted to update the listing. This CJ-3B has an OD rather than a PTO. Also, the seller has a good deal of images here. Finally, the engine is out, so it doesn’t run. This looks like it would make a great stock restoration projection.
(07/28/2010) “I purchased this jeep about 5 years ago with the intention of restoring it but have not had the time to do so. It has an overhead valve 4 cylander motor and lots of parts. It also an Overdrive.”

(08/03/2010) This looks like a good price.
“1947 Willys Jeep – CJ series. Original motor & transmission. $1000.00.”
UPDATE: **SOLD*** Was $1800.
This looks like a great price.
“For Sale: 1961 CJ5 Jeep with 231 v/6 Buick engine. 235 X 75R-15 Tires. Runs and drives good.”

Looks pretty stock.

“

This looks like a great price.
“1951 Jeep Pickup; inline 4 cylinder; All but done. $1500 or best offer. ”

This might be a good price despite its not running status.
“I have a 1947 Willy’s Jeep for sale, The Jeep is not running and am selling because I don’t have time for this project. I have the title in hand. It would be a great project for someone. The model is a CJ2A it is not the orginal motor and has an extra set of tires, I am asking $1000 or best offer, Can help deliver in the Cedar Rapids area, ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1400.
I’m not sure I’d say the body is in “great shape”.
“An old red and white jeep willys the body is still in great shape the engine has most parts needs some work perfect piece of history needs new windshield. ”
It sounds like this has seen a pretty thorough rebuild.
“This is a fully restored and parade ready willys 1951 m38 jeep, korean war era. the jeep has been restired, and is rot free, new decals, new brake system, rebuilt steering box, new shocks, new tires, new exhaust,new side steps.

Looks in good shape.

This looks like a solid truck, though it needs the wiring finished and there is some rust.
“1949 Willys Jeep Truck, 4×4. flat 4 motor, 3 speed column shit. I have converted to a gm alternator and 12 volt battery. Tires are good and body is in great shape. The only rust is on the bottom of the doors. Truck starts, runs and drives, but needs a tune up and wiring finished.”

UPDATE: Still Available
(07/10/2010) The seller says it is a daily driver.
“This pickup is original except for seat and changed to 12 volts. motor was overhauled 5 years ago. it’s a daily driver. 406-549-6248”
http://montana.craigslist.org/cto/1835548901.html

I’m assuming both run, drive and stop based on the “all-in-good-working-order” comment.
“1948 green Jeep CJ2, engine, transmission, running gear, frame, all in good working order. 1949 yellow Jeep CJ3, engine, transmission, running gear, frame, all in good working order. Engine needs valve job. Both Jeeps would be great for a frame-up restoration. $3000.00 for both.”
http://wausau.craigslist.org/cto/1877222744.html
Status Unknown. Was $1400.
“Anyone have interst in a 1947 CJ2A (serial #129382) with Jeep-a-Trench option. Unit is complete but chains are all locked up due to rust. Pictured is the well pulling attachment on the front of the jeep. That has been removed and is not included in the sale. The rest of the jeep is mostly complete including the following options: pto controler, shaft, rear gear box, 90 degree gear box (minus the drum), top bows, ag weight, and governor (minus the governor handle). The engine is siezed but has no noticable cracks. Jeep does not have a title. The body is ruff but not a complete basket case. Jeep rolls easily but the steering column is frozen. The wheels still turn side to side by hand so loading on trailer will not be a problem.”
Probably a simple fix regarding the alternator issue.
“This jeep runs and drives great but not holding charge, i think that it may need a new battery also needs new brake lines. I have new top and doors for the jeep, and lots more. CALL MIKE AT 1757-695-0383.”
http://easternshore.craigslist.org/cto/1877147070.html
This seems like a good price to me.
“This jeep was reconditioned in the late ’90. For the past two or three years it has been parked in my barn. As a result of not being run the fuel pump has stopped working. With a $30 rebuild kit and a complete cleaning of the fuel system this jeep will run fine. It has been used primarily as a show vehicle being displayed in various parades and events. It is in excellent condition and would make a fine addition to someones militaria collection. The markins are from the Korean War era and the unit was reconditioned to represent this period.”
