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.
This has an unusual roof/roll bar. It appears there’s some rust near the driver’s side drain hole. Otherwise, it looks pretty solid.
“All original parts. Runs great. New tires. 8,000 LB Warn wench. Great vehicle for hunting and the outdoors!”
UPDATE: Was $7500. Status Unknown.

I think DUSTY describes this accurately. It looks pretty solid underneath the rust.

UPDATE: Was $15750 **Status Unknown**
(04/29/2010) I’m a little surprised the seller doesn’t mention this is a Slat Grille. This doesn’t have the in-dash jockey box.
“The vehicle has been restored. It is very nice, runs great. Registration and Safety just renewed. It has too many improvements to list. Located on Maui in Lahaina. I am willing to take serious offers.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000
(11/18/09) The Vin number would make this produced in 1948. This looks like a nice rebuilt.
“ I am selling my CJ2A. This has been recently restored. Body was removed and repainted. Color is maroon. Black undercoat on the body to help prevent rust. Restoration did not include mechanical. Vehicle had a partial 12V conversion when I got it. It now has all new wiring. All lights work. Added turn signals and brake lights. Horn works. Starter is 12V. It uses a borg warner 6V coil; but could easily be changed to 12V coil. Jeep would be street legal if you add the windshield; the seals for the windshield are included in sale. It didn’t need the motor or drivetrain rebuilt. Although I did paint the engine and rebuild the carburator. New gauges except for speedo.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
(09/03/2010) “for sale is a 1957 jeep/ willys forward control 150. this is the limited production (9 years) vehicle.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3995
(05/18/2010) This looks great. It appears to sport a replacement body. Not a bad price.
“1948 Willys CJ2A runs drives and stops. New brakes and lines 5 years ago; aftermarket steel tub, hood and tailgate, no rust on the body, original windshield. I do not know the mileage but have a clear Wisconsin title for it. I think it is an MB frame. I have used it as a toy on my farmette near Monroe, Wi. It starts up every spring but I just use it to drive locally. The tires are new, non directional with less than 100 miles on them. The pics were taken before the new tires. I bought it from a guy in northern Wi who painted it with a brush but it looks pretty good anyway. I have a new steering wheel and correct passenger seat frame for it, just not installed. Don’t need to sell but also don’t need the toy”
UPDATE: Was $15,000. **SOLD**
A reader named John is selling this nicely restored MB.
“1945 Willys 1/4T reconnaissance truck, JEEP, delivered to the military 3-7-45 and recently completed a tub-off restoration. All restoration work correct to original specs with primarilly original NOS parts and professional rebuilds of the motor, drivetrain, axles, diffs, tranny and TC. Era correct top quality canvas and rubber throughout and every detail of the restoration process was documented in scores of digital pics. Over $14000 in parts and services alone with receipts available. This Willys is a classic example of a combat jeep in the ETO circa. early ’45. ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
This looks good, though it has a broken passenger-side axle.
“90% finished ground up restoration. Including: gear inspection, complete emroned frame axles and running gear, new tires, rebuilt engine and transmission with aproximately 1500 miles on them, tub pan replaced with diamond plate, all wood supports removed and replaced with steel chanel, rubberized undercarriage, all new guages, fuel and oil systems upgrade, oversized radiator, saginov steering, clean wiring, custom bench seat, brand new Bestop soft top, and many many oem replacements throughout. Sweetest running willys around, super billit build, must see to appreciate.
Whats left/wrong: Needs paint, has some rust on tail gate and windshield frame (planned on getting new ones) rest of body is rust free, and done right, guages need to be put in dash, mirrors, and wipers need to be installed
The issue: I was playing with it on the coast and broke the passenger side rear axle shaft recently, and have decided I dont have the time or ability to repair the axle. This is a super common break with lots of online info, and replacement axle shafts are 80 bucks. I have put over 10 grand into this jeep over the past 8 years, and Im letting it go for 2500! Must see to appreciate, and MUST sell.”
UPDATE: This Sold.
It appears complete, but tough to tell the rough situation.
