About eWillys
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.
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 .
Recently bought a CJ-2A project that has a F-134 engine in it. According to the previous owner, the F-134 was an industrial Jeep crate engine installed after the original L-134 got tired at some point in the 80’s. The original engine came with the project and I intend to rebuild & use that one in the restoration. Therefore, I have no use for this engine.
Engine has been sitting dormant for a while but it does run. Compression test results: 1: 90 2: 80 3: 90 4: 95. Compression test was done on cold engine and valves have not been adjusted. Will come dressed with carburetor, distributor, oil pump, fuel pump, coil and exhaust manifold. No starter, generator or front engine mount plate included.
This Jeep tornado engine is in a 1963 gladiator truck. I am selling it only as a core because when I found this truck in a barn in California it had been sitting in that shack for 40 years and as you can see in the pictures the hood was removed and I’m sure water got in there. So it’s just the parts engine. I’m sure hard to come by but still I have no idea what the condition is. $400 you come pull it out

This was a rare barn find indeed, one of the first Jeep pickups, although they kept that body style up through the late seventies. It was pretty sad when we found it flat tires all around and it’s been sitting for 40 years. So we got some good rolling stock on it, and it has an Arizona title. The steering wheel seems to be locked up so it can’t turn, no radiator, it has the original tornado 230 6 cylinder engine unknown history on that. It has a three speed on the column but they tried to convert it to the floor and it looks like they had problems with linkage. But it’s in neutral so that’s good. I crawled underneath everything’s there all the drive lines everything’s there. And this has the smallest back window you don’t see that much. Floorboards are rusted out you’ll have to put new ones in but other than that it’s decent. It’s a project that’s for sure it needs a lot of love, but we’re letting it go pretty cheap $2600 cash and it’s your project. Might consider a trade for a tractor with a loader bucket on it.
Willys 230_OHC Tornado Powertrain
$850 OBO Clinton MS
230 Up for grabs, early ’62 it says, would need some numbers off the unit to confirm. Some of these early ones are in need of some upticks. Recently I was able to compile all of the TSB that we gathered for the 230 into a nice document it was a really fun project getting those refreshed into a new format. It’s up on OWF you can search the tag 230_OHC and you will see most of my stuff over there related to the Tornado, so many knowledgeable folks over there have shared a ton of stuff with me very thankful.
I have too many of these around 12 or 13, so there is some value here, it does retain the original Air Cleaner, I had so many of those I was able to actually pay it forward and donate one to a really cool build. Then found homes for the rest, I have enough for my driving rigs.
But this actually retains the original bracket those I have never had an original but Tim out in CA was nice to hand make one for me from his and have that.
There are some very specific code words you will need to learn to get access to this one.
Jeep 230 Tornado engine with 3 speed transmission and rebuilt Dana 18 transfer case pulled from a 1962 Willys Wagon.
Running when removed. Has a rebuilt Holley 2-barrel carburetor. Compression is good on all cylinders except one (has been sitting 20+ years). Fair condition overall — good core for rebuild or project.
Before replying, please read this:
I’m getting lots of fake/bot messages on here lately. To show you’re a real local buyer:
1. Tell me specifically what you plan to use it for (jeep project, parts, rebuild, etc.).
2. Include the code phrase “Clinton Tornado guy” at the end of your message.
3. Mention when you could come pick it up (I’m usually free weekends).
I will ignore “Is it still available?”, short replies, or anyone who jumps straight to asking for my phone/email without answering the above.
Local cash buyers only in the Clinton area. No shipping, no trades, no out-of-state deals. Price is $600 firm but open to reasonable offers from serious folks.
More pics available upon real inquiry. Come check it out in person.
Very clean nice running Willys Super Hurricane 226 engine. runs quiet and doesn’t smoke at all. Complete fan to flywheel, starter to manifold. Come see and hear it run before I put it on a pallet.
Willys Jeep L-134 engine and T-90 transmission
$500 Calhoun, GA
Not a T-98 but the seller is parting ou a family collection so fully understandable, the T-96 looks to have only 4 bolts on the top cover, a t-90 has the same 6 bolts. Another 2WD set up for someone. I’m not up on the casting numbers of fthe L134. Good price IMO.
A pretty much complete Willys Jeep engine and transmission. One cylinder on the block will probably need to be sleeved so I dropped the price. The transmission is supposedly a column shift T-98. The casting number on the cylinder head is 840161. From my research this engine/trans combo was used from 1944 to 1953. This was in my Dads collection of stuff so I know little about it. Please inquire with questions and I will do my best to answer them. Thanks.
