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: **SOLD** Was $7500.
Buz spotted this nice looking Tuxedo Park IV. Looks like it’s a good price, too.
“I have a 1965 Jeep CJ-5 Tuxedo Park Mark IV for sale. This is a rare Jeep with a 4 cylinder engine with a 3-speed transmission on the column. It has 4 wheel drive that works great with Warn lock out hubs. Also has a roll bar. Spare tire is in great shape. The top is in good condition.

The engine sure does look nicely rebuilt.
“Up for trade is my 1952 Willys M38A1.
I purchased this jeep in SoCal last year and brought it to NJ when I moved here. This willys is clean and daily driver material. In the past year I have:
Rebuilt carburetor
new fuel pump, new fuel lines & filters. Cleaned out gas tank
New water pump & thermostat
Full tune up
New lightweight land cruiser starter
New headlight switch
Fresh fluids transmission & transfer case
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4600.
Needs a few items, but sure looks solid.
“Here’s a most affordable RARE antique vehicle, made by Willys for farm/ranch use.
This little truck’s teeny 134 c.i. engine runs very well, top speed about 45 mph in high range. Same running gear as a similar era CJ, but it’s mid-engined, giving it great traction in 4wd. The little flatbed has a massive set of springs supporting it, 15″ tires are good, paint/body are decent.
Included is a 6′ Western snowplow, power lift only, that is currently not installed but its frame can be easily re-bolted. With chains on all wheels, I’ve pushed fresh snow high as the windows. The cabover design lets you see right where the blade is, for tight spots.
Strong Points:
Has a high Cool Factor. Everybody likes the Jeep.
Starts right up, and roars right off — is a good runner; a great repair manual and minor spare parts included.
Great running gear — no leaks, brakes are very good (for it’s era).
Driver’s window is just right for hanging your elbow out.
Weak Points:
Windshield has major cracks on the right side and both side glass is plexiglass (been that way since before I bought it in the late 80’s – I did see an ad recently for a cab with intact glass for $100, so this is solvable).
Runs hot in the summer (needs a bigger radiator fan and vents in the bed’s headboard), needs a speedo cable made up.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
Looks like a good price. Love the old angle top. Looks like mismatched tires.
“1 owner family owned since new. Only 44, XXX original miles. Runs and drives. Everything in operational condition. Good for hunting and off-road. 3 speed manual, Hi/Low Dif. Call or text with any questions or to make an offer. $3500 obo.”
This is currently on display at the National United States Armed Forces Museum.
“Fully restored 1954 m38a1. Radios not included serious inquiries only. Clear title.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3900.
This might be a good price.
“Up for sale is my 46 Willys jeep cj with a small block chevy 327ci. The conversion was very well done with manufactured conversion plates (not homemade), motor mounts, correct size radiator. This jeep runs and drive great. I have driven it down the Interstate at 70mph no problem (warn over drive makes a huge difference). Over all I would consider it to be in average shape cosmetically and great shape mechanically. At one point in time someone had spend a large chunk of money on it and rebuilt the entire jeep to be a custom. The drivetrain including axles, transfer case and transmission are out of a 1971 jeep, which means it has the very rare DANA 44 with one piece axles. I pulled a valve cover and the engine is very clean which leads me to believe the engine was rebuilt when conversion was done. As far as everything different it has from stock…
– SBC 327 Chevy
– Aluminum intake
– 750cfm carb
– MSD coil
– MSD distributor
– Oversize radiator
– WARN overdrive
– 3 speed tranny
– Dana 44
– New roll bar
– 31’s on chrome rims
– Steering stabilizer
For being a 1946, there is minimal rust. There are no rust holes on the exterior of the body, just a few surface rust spots. The only major rust hole in the jeep is in the floor of the tool box. The paint is not perfect by any means but is not horrible. There are a couple heavy bondo spots. The last issue with the body is the floor boards have kind of been piece together, it is real cheap to buy new floor boards though weld them in. I have brand new Goodyear wrangler tires going on it this next weekend. Also I have a nice one piece steering arm that I will include with it. Jeep only has a bikini top but that’s all you need on a classic. The jeep has been stored inside.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000

This militarized CJ-2A looks solid.
“I had long wanted a Jeep MB like the one I used during the Korean war. I have restored several vehicles through the years and in 1994 I began searching for a Jeep to restore. Turns out these Jeeps are quite rare, and even those few I found were never exactly equipped like that Jeep.
At that point I decided the only way to duplicate that Jeep was to build one. I started with two parts Jeeps (a non-titled 1945 and a titled 1946) and went about testing the condition of components, disassembling the parts, cleaning and painting and listing those items I still needed. All original Willy’s engine and running gear are retained. The bodies of my donor Jeeps were fairly rough and the decision was made to fit it with an exact duplicate, all steel reproduction Jeep MB body. It is absolutely rust free. This Jeep is Michigan titled as a 1946 Jeep.
