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 $5000
“my step dad passed away and now im helping my mother sell his jeep willys. not sure how long he has owned it but can tell you it was longer than 12 years. it has always been stored inside while he owned it. since him and my mother have been together in 96 it has been driven only bout a dozen times. maybe once a year. was always taken good care of. i do not know the extent of what kind of resto was done. the frame appears to have been painted at one time…..”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1700
It appears a good deal of work has been done throughout the frame, suspension and drivetrain. It also includes a second V6. If you can get it started, this would be a very good deal I think. While it’s missing the driver side step, I think it that won’t slow it down in the trails. Nice aluminum slot rims.
“To many projects, got to get rid of some. Jeep used to run would probably fire up with a little work, haven’t tried yet. This jeep is super flexy, it is spring over in the rear and under in the front. Frame has been beefed up with custom bumpers on both ends. It has a older 231 V6 with a rebuit turbo 350 automatic. Wrangler springs, 30 disc brake front end with a lockright and a 20 rear with 1 piece axles and a welded dif. Full cage, 3a windshield, power steering, full harnesses, ok tub and good full top. Have a newer 231 that goes with it. With a little work it will be a nice offroader. It has 33 swampers on it now the price above is without these wheels and tires. You can have it with them for 2200.00. Jeep has been sitting for about 5 years. It is titled with collector plates.”
William, a reader from Costa Rica, contacted me this weekend with a question. After exchanging a few emails, he offered to share his project with readers. The 1st picture was taken in April of 2005 and the second in November of 2007. He has made some nice improvements that have made this jeep look much better. You can see all the pics here at cardomain.com. Thanks for sharing William!
Here’s an early ’46 CJ-2A with a column shift and the driver indents. This appears to be in excellent shape. I don’t think it’s a bad price. I’ve added a second pic below to show both the column shift and the state of the floor, which looks excellent.
“1946 WILLYS CJ2A, Restored 1946 Willys Jeep, new yellow paint, street legal, titled in Florida(Collector car), custom new bikiny top, new tires and tubes, fun to drive. ALL ORIGINAL. 3 speed manual, colum shift(DJ), used by mail courriers on WWll. Purchased from original owner in Colorado. Original papers to prove it. Included many NOS spare parts. Call me and check it, you will love it. I’m finishing an M38 1951 all military……”

UPDATE: Lee just bought this Jeep. Congrats!
This restoration looks beautiful, though if this is really a ’45, then I think it should have the column shifter. It’s beautiful and I rather like the burnt (?) orange. The one element I don’t like is the ‘all wheel drive’ plaque on both sides of the hood. It’s also missing the rear soft-top bars holder on the driver side.
“The vehicle IS titled as a 1943 though the serial number on the vehicle matches the code for a 1945. The transmission is a 4 speed.”
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $3500.
Looks pretty good.
“1948 Willy’s Jeep, 4 Cyl, 3 Spd, 4 Wheel Drive, Mostly Original, Runs Great, Body Fair/Good. New items; Brakes, Wiring, Lights, Gauges, Fuel Pump, Carb. A Classic Jeep. $3900 O.B.O. Located in Orange City Florida (just south of Deland).”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $900.
This is a great deal. The cages themselves are worth $150 a piece. I’d be willing to bet that the white jeep has my fiberglass seats in it. Get this while it lasts.
“1 jeep has a 302 Ford Transfer case needs work. 2 jeep has no Eng. or no Trans. $900 for both. Will separate or trade for CJ Parts. ”

If the paddle tires are in good shape, this could be a good deal.

I’m not familiar with the “Offroad Adventures” publication. Instead, as usual, I stumbled upon it while looking for something else. It’s a compact 2 pages article with a variety of pics of cjs accompanied by different hydraulic implements. I’m not a big fan of the myvirtualpaper’s interface, but the pics are still cool.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2848.
That’s a big winch on the front of the jeep. I’m not familiar with it.
