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 like a very nice restoration.

I haven’t seen one of these for sale in a few months. There were several buyers looking for one.
“This is my 1961 or 62 not sure Jeep FleetVan. It has the original F Head 134, but engine is stuck. Van comes with a complete good running Fhead that was removed from a cj in favor of a v8 swap. The van rolls and steers good, brakes kind of work. The doors open great, and all interior covers are there. So far the only missing Items I can find are the front bumper and orginal seat. Two side windows are shot, but are flat glass and easy to replace. This van would make a cool parade rig, or advertising for a business, maybe even a mini coffee/bagel delivery van. Please feel free to ask any questions, I will try to answer them as soon as possible. I can haul the van on my car trailer to spokane or moses lake if needed. Sorry, no tittle. Good luck.”
It’s got some classic slot rims and a PTO Winch. It looks like a great price.
“Sale is for a 1956 Willy’s Jeep CJ5- $1500.00 or best offer and as is condition. Jeep has a 1972 in-line (straight) 6 cylinder Ford Bronco motor, low gear ratio, PTO Wench w/approx. 2000′ of 5/16″ wire cable, electric fuel pump, new leaf springs with a 2″-3″ lift, new seals on the transmission, transfer case and rear differential, new muffler.
Jeep exterior and interior needs paint and the seats need to be re-upholstered. The wiring could also be updated. This jeep is a strong runner but it is not good for use on public roads due to the low gear ratio (top speed approx. 45 mph) and age. This jeep would be great for hunting, off-roading, climbing, etc. The jeep has a tow bar attached to the front so it can be pulled to your destination. Keep reading for information from NADA Guides.”

UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $6000.
This includes a trailer. It looks like a good price. I would think that an accurately restored M-38A1 would have a split windshield?

Mark spotted this project. As Mark noted, this appears perfect for those bondo-challenged rebuilders among us.
“I have a nice 1948 Willys Jeepster project up for auction. The owner of this car had me store it for him over 3 years ago and I haven’t heard a word from him since. By now the storage fees out way the value of the car so the car now belongs to me and is for sale. There is no title for this car due to this situation and that’s why its listed in this section. NOW THE GOOD. The car was painted at a local car dealership and then moved into my climate controlled shop and has been here since, just like you see it. It looks like it was painted yesterday. Body is great, all of the yellow and black painted parts seen in pics are ready to reinstall. The frame was stripped and repainted black when the body was done. A great car to start putting back together. Other parts include the engine, radiator, convertible top frame, seats, moldings, glass, tons of small parts, etc. We were told it was all there when it arrived. Not being an expert, it’s hard for me to say. I cannot find a VIN number, frame numbers etc, but all seems to be original as we were told by the last owner. The interior of the body is still in need or restoration. the dash was stripped and primed inside. Under the cowl is super clean. The underbody around the floor pans has not been painted but has been mostly sanded clean. I believe a RH rear fender was replaced or worked at one time due to “new” looking exposed metal in the inner wheel well. I would be glad to answer any questions if I can. Other pics also availible. Feel free to ask. Car is also availible for personal inspection in my shop Thanks!”
UPDATE: This was a great price at $2000. It appears sold.
Brett spotted this one. With the plow setup and some good looking tires, this looks like a good price. The body doesn’t look all that bad to me.
“This is a 1942 Willey’s Jeep. It runs great and has the original drive train. It has not been licensed since about 1964. It has been used to plow my driveway, so it runs between 4 and 15 times a year. It has been serviced every year. The body is in pretty rough shape but is fixable for the right person. It comes with a 7′ snow plow and I don’t want to take it off.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** $10,500
(04/17/2010) It’s a nicely maintained old Jeep. The underneath of the body looks great!
“This Vehicle was owned by an older Gentleman for the last 24 years, It looks to be meticulously well maintained and cosmetically redone on the body . The paint appears to be new at some time before i got it , I waxed it and it was the first time anyone had ever waxed it, not that it was neglected I think he just did not get too it before he passed away. This jeep was always stored in a garage and covered before I bought it. Also the interior seats were recovered in a tan vynle , note I did see one small 1/4 inch tear repair on drivers seat looks like a good repair, also the rollbar is upgraded to around 3″ version with a new black bikini half top, The electrical system was also converted 12 volt with a one wire alternator , with new taillights and marker reflectors . Front bumper looks new with a new brush guard with accessories running lights and brackets for the tow bar that bolts to it, also new headlights with chrome rings and screen guards also stainless grill screen guard. All the gauges fuel temp amps and oil are new ,original speedo The original wipers are not hooked up or on . I was told they weren’t working but go with vehicle. New Goodyear Wrangler tires and white spoke rims .The body by my inspection does not appear to have any rust or ever had any rust repairs that I can see from inspecting from looking underneath the body. This Willys starts and runs excellant runs real quiet cruises nice at 55 -60 mph also has a tachometer. Has all dash 4×4 stickers and plates . The motor runs strong and does not emit any smoke upon starting or driving. The trans is very tight and does not grind or howl when shifting or driving. overall This jeep to Me seem real nice driver. The brake system has also been upgrade with a power booster assist witch is mounted on the drivers inner fender in engine bay. and seatbelts were installed front and rear.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8500.
