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 $3500.
Maybe an ex fire-jeep?

“1953 Willys Jeep CJ3A. I think i am the third owner. I have owned it for 23 years or so. It has less than 500 miles on a frame off rebuild. Rebuilt running gear, suspension, steering, steering box and column, oversized brakes, drums and wheel cylinders, master cylinder, and new brake lines. Rodded original radiator, installed overflow tank. Rebuilt Harrison heater and rodded core. Installed 12 volt 3 wire alternator, totlal rewire of vehicle, rebuilt starter motor, converted all lights and guages to 12 volt, and installed fuse strip. Has roll cage, Lincoln electric bucket seats (but have originals, see photo) fold and tuck rear seat. Has full soft top and doors, bikini top and 5 new tires and wheels. Original scripted metal body, fenders and hood. No dents (to speak of). I did not repaint body, because my wife would not want it “scratched”. Has been garaged with all 3 owners. I have all receipts and many of the old parts that were replaced. Willys listed these as a “1/4 ton truck”.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3650.
(04/20/2015) Includes a Warn OD.
“Excellent running 1946 CJ2A. Very original, drives right down the road with no squeaks or rattles. Lock out hubs and 4WD works just fine. Headlights, tail-lights, turn signal and interior lights, horn (vintage) all work as designed.
I bought this a few months back, and since then have done the following: new tires, new fuel pump and regulator, new Solex carburetor, new shocks, new exhaust system front to back, new instruments, new transmission cross member and motor mounts. I changed the intake/exhaust manifold gasket, set the valves, changed the plugs and wires, and timed the motor. Engine, transmission, overdrive, transfer case and differential oils all changed.
The L134 flathead makes good power, does not smoke, has good oil pressure and runs cool. There’s an enormous winch mounted on the front, which I have been told is WWII vintage for moving aircraft on the runway.
Body has the usual dings and rust typical of a 70 year old Willys.
I am selling to get a more highway friendly Jeep, although one can drive this 60 MPH if they wish.
Email me your phone number and I will call you. Reasonable offers are welcome. ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
This may be worth a look. It appears it’s covered most of the time.
“I am selling my 52 willy’s jeep. I wish I knew more about it, just know I don’t have time to finish her up and make it the treasure it is. It was handed down to me. I do know it’s all original besides electric fan and fuel pump. It does not start right now, but it did before I towed it back to Emmett. I believe it needs new battery and tune up. Hasn’t been started for probably 10 years. It’s an awesome truck, some rust but the right owner would have her looking great. I’m asking 3500 call or text if you’d like little more info or look at it. ”
UPDATE: Was $3000. **SOLD**
No pics provided.

(05/13/2015) Looks pretty original.
“Great Korean War vintage 1952 M38 Jeep. This is military surplus, not a CJ-2 civilian model. Very fun to drive, unrestored, all original except for a new gas tank. New batteries, 24v system. Great to run around the farm or put in a parade. Dull OD green, not a shiney finish to attract the enemies’ attention. My wife did not like driving it near as much as I did.”
