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 .
That’s one odd front bumper.

It’s got a variety of mods.
“1949 customized Jeep Willy’s. Has a cj5 motor in it, actual miles unknown but most of the stuff on this Jeep has been replaced or rebuilt. This Jeep has thousands of dollars in custom work and parts. New heavy duty steering and power steering added also. It’s a really cool Jeep.”
Looks promising.
“I have a 1948 willys cj2a for sale. This jeep has a pretty clean body and NO rust. We originally bought it with the intention to do a v6 swap and change the suspension. We completed two other projects and we’re running out of space. It does not have a motor but it does have the transmission and transfercase along with several other parts.”

This is a mix of CJ and WWII parts. The top may be a Beck or a Kelly.
“Sold as a project vehicle to willing rebuilder. Rough shape but good drivetrain. Motor free turning but has no battery, starter not working.”

Might want to check the studs on this. At least one is missing a nut.
“Rebuilt corvette 327 Turbo Fire engine. Starts right up, Original manual transmission 4×4 rebuilt .16inch wheels , needs minor TLC.”
More work to be done, but there could be value here.
“1950 Willys cj3a Jeep. This is a 95% complete jeep with original flat head 4cyl. “Go devil” engine. It is not running needs valves replaced but cylinders look good. I have a box of parts for it as well ( including the original seat brackets that allow passenger seat to fold fwd.) comes with a new tow bar. Tires will hold air for a day or so. I do have Colo. Title for it. Not interested in parting out as it only needs a few things to be complete. Asking $ 2200/obo.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
It’s a project.
“I bought this Jeep around 2012 from a person in Ivins who had it sitting in his yard for 25 years. He replaced the engine with a known good running engine when he first got it. He turned the engine by hand a couple of times a year to keep it free.
I put a lot of work into it around 2012/2013
I lost interest, and it has literally sat outside here in Ivins since 2013. It’s still in similar shape, but I’m sure there’s a bit more rust.
For the most part it’s pretty clean. I scrubbed, and painted the engine, transfer case, and tranny. I got most of the crud off the frame and other parts too, so it’s ready for mainly mechanical/body work at this point.
(I have an album of about 200 pictures from 2013 when I did the work. It won’t allow me to post it here, email me for the link. It shows a lot of detail of what has been done.)

UPDATE: Price dropped to $2500. It’s been painted since it was listed in early 2017. It may have some early Free-Lock hubs.
