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 .
Looks like a well done build.

“1951 Willys Jeep for sale. Tons of new parts. Awesome little Jeep to wheel or cruise around town. Chevy 350 with auto transmission. New gas tank, carburetor, windshield wiper motors, radiator, alternator, all new custom wiring. Price is firm and don’t need to sell so serious inquiries only.”
This is part of an estate sale. It is listed as a 1946, but it looks to be a GPW based on the tool box lids and front crossmember.

“1943 Willys, not running, body could use a little work but is in great shape for it’s age and compared to others I have found. Steering column was changed out for a power steering setup, but may not work. Windshield cracked. No headlights.
I have been told that it has a Buick V6 engine, a 350 Turbo transmission, a stock military transfer case and front end, and a Dana 44 rear.
All tires are bad and must be replaced, so it must be picked up by trailer (Can roll onto trailer with effort).”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $9400.

“This is a REBUILT 1946 Willys CJ2 per the title. I have clear title.
This is part of an estate sale, and not my own personal vehicle. I was told that it needs a starter, but it does run outside of that. I am only repeating what I’ve been told by the family. The mileage has not been verified. The Jeep is a cream/tan in color. There is not hard top or soft top and it has been sitting outside exposed to the elements with no cover. I cannot make any statements to how the Jeep or its components runs or operates.
It is your responsibility that either you or your mechanic inspect the vehicle to verify the specifics you are seeking out of this vehicle.
It is located at the estate property in Washoe Valley, NV and can be seen by appointment only. Please message Brandy with multiple times you are available to meet. Upon confirmation of the land owner’s availability, then I will confirm with you a meeting time/date.”
Listed as a CJ-3B windshield, given the lack of a channel, this might have been a DJ-3A convertible windshield.

“Here we have an awesome Jeep FC170 4 wheel drive truck. FC = forward control, like a cab over or COE. The 170 designation is for 170 inch wheel base. Someone started making a tilt/dump bed on the back which you can see in the picture. Realizing I have too many projects, a few of them need to go. Awesome looking little trucks. This is a project, and it does have rust. Come see it for yourself. No engine or transmission. I purchased the truck exactly as you see it. Feel free to ask for more pictures or specific pictures. Open to offers and trades, what do you have?? Text is best, if you call and I don’t answer, text or email me and I’ll get back to you. No voicemails and bad cell service!
Camper shells not included.”
UPDATE: The consensus seems to be that this bolts to the back fo the transfercase like a type of PTO, but no one has recognized it yet.
David picked up this gear box at RFJP’s shop. Anyone recognize it?
