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 $2800
(09/03/2011) This appears to be a pretty good conversion, though it is only 2wd.

(09/11/2011) It looks pretty original.
“1948 willys CJ2A. Runs great!!! Pretty much all original except seats. Snow plow and tow bar.”
Wade shared these two photos with me yesterday. He writes, “We were walking a site in Mission Hills of San Diego and saw this jeep at the end of a cul-du-sac in an older house’s driveway. Also is a shot of my nephew and their jeep. Thought it was just a good jeep shot.”
Here is his nephew and their nice looking flattie.
And this is just sad, even for a DJ . . .
HOG spotted a great Willys hubcap thread over at the International Full Size Jeep Association Forum.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
For $500 there might be some value here.
“We have a 1960 Willys Jeep CJ-3B. Needs new tub, which I had plans to do but never got around to. This has the much desired F-Head engine. Husband says the underside is in wonderful condition. Hood embossed with the Willys logo. It has been stored in the old barn for years. Not currently running. This one is priced to sell, it’s worth this price in parts alone!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800.
Motor does not run, but the fuel pump is thought to be the problem.
“I have a 1948 willys cj 2a jeep with soft top and soft doors. Does not run at this time! Motor does turn over believe to be fuel pump and i have a new one I’ll give ya. Needs work but body and floor pans are in good shape. I DO HAVE A TITLE. I was told the motor and transmission have been recently rebuild do not know if thats true or not but transmission feels tight. Not perfect but for the money and having a title its worth every penny was going to fix it up and drive it around but decided to start on another project instead. asking $1800 make an offer cash talks”
UPDATE: Was $2500. **SOLD**
“Has some body rot on the door and along the edge of the roof, would make a good rat rod project. Runs perfect!!! Has a Chevy V6 with fuel injection and a 700R4. The front seat has beat reupholstered and looks great. Its been sitting for a while but I fire it up every week to keep it fresh. Your could drive this thing to LA and back with out a problem”
There appears to be value here.

HOG spotted this one. The front end looks a little heavy, but this might be worth a look.

Craig forwarded this ad. I think the seller meant that he “un-seized” the engine.
“I have a RARE 1957 Jeep FC 150 4X4. It is a really cool old rig. It has a lot of surface rust and it goes through on the drivers side floor and the passenger side back corner of the cab. Otherwise solid. I have un-ceased the motor, torn it down and repainted it (not to be pretty but to keep from rusting) I have everything needed to put it back together and get it running EXCEPT : New Clutch, Muffler, and exhaust. The rest is there! I also have a gasket set, new motor mounts and the original shop manual! I have web sites to get all the parts you need to restore. I am selling because it has sat for over a year without me having time to work on it. Cool rig I would love to see it on the road. They go for about $5-7k when they are all done. HAS TITLE!”
