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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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: Price dropped to $2000
(06/28/2010) It’s priced a bit high given the amount of work left. It’s got some old school steel wheels.
“This is a project jeep. It has rebuilt Ford 289 engine ready to be put in. It has flat front fenders and a hood.”

(04/09/2011) This tub is half CJ-3B (front) and half DJ-3A (rear).
“Yes, it is still for sale, I have had issues getting my phone messages. If you have called and didn’t get ahold of me, im sorry, feel free to call back. I am moving out of state and don’t have room on the trailer for this project.
I am selling my 1957 Willys CJ3B project. I have been slowly getting this thing built, but I just don’t have the time to finish before I leave and no room to take it with me. The Tub is a mix of CJ3B cowl with a ’56 willys DJ3 / MB tub (the DJ cowl was cut up and gone before I got the tub) sitting on a ’70’s 2wd mail jeep chassis with a Dana 44 rear axle and stock 2wd front axle. The 70’s mail jeep chassis has the better steering and is stonger around the engine area then the CJ frames, has out board mounted rear leaf springs and brand new 31×10-15 tires.
I was building this jeep for the sand dunes, so the original 4cyl is long gone, I will include a rebuildable chevy 350 v8 and chevy short shaft th350 automatic transmission. Neather are mounted and they do need rebuilt
So for $700 you can have an old jeep project…or buy the wheels, tires, engine and trans and get the rest of the stuff an a bonus. Let me know if you are interested, I have the title in had, not yet notorized. Eli-509-230-7239”

UPDATE: Was $3500 **SOLD**
(12/19/2010) lThis needs additional work.
“I have a 1947 willys cj2a. it is a project.

UPDATE: Price dropped to $2850
(03/07/2011) This has a variety of mods. I’m unsure of the transfercase setup (someone recognize that?). I have to say I’m a little surprised this runs the early C shackles.
“FOR SALE: A 1948 jeep willys mudder. This was built strictly for the mud. Has a small block chevy with a power glide tranny. The guy I bought it from says it has a full size blazer running gears. You won’t see one like this one! Smokes when first started up. Rough as hell, cool as hell! Call 618-473-3208 or 618-402-9717 for more info or pic’s.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800.
(11/17/2009) This includes a brand new top, a rebuilt dana 18, a limited slip in the rear and extra parts. This might be a good deal if the rust isn’t too bad and it runs.
“I have a 46 2a for project for sale. Complete minus radiator, wiring, distributor, drivelines will need to be modified, sheet metal needs some finishing ect. The Good: 225 buick V6 with novak motor mounts, rebuilt T14, rebuilt dana 18/20 i cant remember with factory ebrake, dana 27 front, later model dana 44 rear with new limited slip both axles have been gone through, new 2.5 rancho lift kit wtih rs 5000 shocks and u bolt kit, bucket seats, besttop tiger top never installed but dustly I think I have the hardware for the top somewhere, The frame has only minimal surface rust otherwise painted black, the body is complete and very straight for age with some rust mostly if not all surface though, roll bar, good bias ply mud terrain tires 30/9.5/15 i think.”
It was running 30 year ago. It has been stored a while. It might be a good restoration project. This appears to have a Worman half cab.
“For sale is a good condition 1946 Willys Jeep. It has been garaged for 30 years and was running then. Has power take off for plow, and 4 new rims still in the boxes. Body is in good condition with minor rust. Great classic Jeep ready for the right person to restore! $2500. **MUST be able to pick this up in GLEN COVE, LI!!**”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $150.
(03/29/2011) It looks like at least 2 tires come with the rims.
“I HAVE A SET OF RIMS WILLY S AND JEEP 5 LUG OR ROCK CRAWLER 11-15 LT AND TAKE RIMS 175.00 TAKES IT CALL OR TEXT 909-452-0640 AND I HAVE T 96 TRANS AND REAR END”

A couple years ago, a son by the username korywayne created this for his father for father’s day. Pretty cool!
UPDATE: Still Available
(09/14/2010) This looks like a great price.
“1952 WILLYS JEEP M 38 Runs great! The body is in excellent condition! Here is what has been altered: The second battery box (which was removed and bonded over). This was done before I received the Jeep. The 24 volt system was removed and the 12 volt put in its place. Also, I added power steering! The motor is a Buick V6 225 that was taken from a scrambler and placed in the jeep. It can climb a tree! It has a 3 speed transmission out of a 1968 CJ5. The transfer case is from a 1968 CJ5 as well. Both the transmission and the transfer case are the same make that used to be put in the earlier willys. I’ve also got a few extra parts for this jeep that you can have at no additional cost. Just to be clear this jeep is completely off-road ready! It doesn’t smoke at all and there are no unusual noises. My number is 928-607-1120. email, call, or text. I have additional pictures. Come take a look!!!”
