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: **Status Unknown** Was $2500.
It’s a project.

Runs, but rough.
“Civilian Model – Starts and Runs

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1900.
(02/13/2015) Runs and drives. Could be a good price. Needs fuel pump.
“1946 Willy’s jeep for sale I’ve had this jeep for over 20 years and I don’t do anything with it anymore I’d just rather see it get used runs and drives still has the original flat head in it. The motor and rear end were rebuild in 2003 probably haven’t driven it 150 miles on the farm since then. Body is dinged up has some rust but still drives. The fuel pump went out due to it sitting in the barn so I have a electric one on it at the moment. Do not know where the title is at the moment if i have to get one for you it will take the full asking price plus lost title fees.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500.
(01/08/2014) “Own a piece of history. This is one of the original Jeeps. This is what the Wrangler and the CJ7 and CJ5 were created from. It’s a CJ3B frame and F-head “Hurricane” engine under a CJ2A body using a 3″ body lift. It has been garage stored for the last 12 years after the rebuild. The soft top and doors are included. Also, comes with a Factory Service Manual”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9500
(12/05/2014) The bumpers and column shift appear to be present.
“Extremely rare 1964 Tuxedo Park Mark 4, CJ5a. This was a seperate CJ model and not just a trim package introduced in 1964 to be a transition vehicle aimed at capturing the civilian market. Complete and in very good condition. New tires, rims were sand blasted and powder coated and seats were professionally reupholstered. 37,000 original miles Only 7000 were every made by Willys. Very few original, intact Tuxedo Parks remain. Hurricane engine runs great. No rust through on the tub. Must be seen to appreciate. $9500 or best offer.”
UPDATE: Still Available
(10/17/2014) The body looks rough.
“1950 Jeep CJ-3A. The engine was removed a while back. We do have another L134 here that could go with this for extra $$. The rest of the drive train is still intact. This was brought in as a parts Jeep to go with the other 1950 CJ-3A we have listed, but we think someone might be interested in resurrecting this one as well. ”

This September 1957 article from Willys News highlights an 11 mile jeep race as part of the World Championship Burro races that year (Burro races are still held). The course was originally from Leadville to FairPlay over Mosquito Pass, but heavy snows shortened the course from Alma to FairPlay.
If I read the article correctly, Denver’s Mile High Jeep Club had 600 members in 1957? No wonder it was considered the largest jeep club in the world!
This map roughly highlights how far the race was. Cutting the race back to Alma shortened it considerably.
UPDATE: Was $8500. **SOLD**
“Classic 1959 Jeep Willys Wagon 4X4 This Bad Boy was built/restored in 2008 using newer running gear, axels ect. Has a great running sounding AMC 401 V8 with some nice H.P. parts backed by an auto trans .has a lokar shifter. .TCI power brake set up, power steering with a Ididit tilt column nice duel exhaust with flow masters and more you get the point.. Must see to Appreciate and Yes I do have a clear Utah title. The asking price of just $7,500. is very fair and yes I will look at offers I may take some part trades.”
