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 .
Seller notes this is built on some jeep drive train. It makes me wonder if it was a Topeka Mower chassis?

“I have a homemade loader, has 3cylinder Diesel engine. Rear steer, not sure of make of engine. Needs to have brakes hooked up. Runs and moves fine. I believe that the drive train under it is from a Willy’s Jeep. Has high and low range. I don’t know what the lifting capacity is or the total weight of the machine. I had it on my 6×12 foot single axle trailer without any problems.”

HISTORY
UMMis a Portuguese metal works factory and ex-automobile manufacturer based in Lisbon, Portugal. It was founded in 1977 with the purpose of manufacturing four-wheel drive vehicles for agricultural, industrial and utility applications. The UMM 4×4 design is derived from a prototype created by the French engineering firm called SIMI. SIMI had produced the Cournil, a rugged two seater boxy looking Landrover type of vehicle made with Hotchkiss-JEEP parts with Ferguson Diesel tractor allwheel driven mechanicals itself was originally designed and built by mechanical engineer Bernard Cournil. A civilian model was called the SIMI Entrepreneur 4X4. The Cournil Entrepreneur’s building rights were acquired in the 1970s by the Portuguese company União Metalo-Mecânica, part of the Mocar group and were renamed as UMM.
They became known for their durability, especially when in the Paris-Dakar rally the team was able to finish with all the cars that started. Many UMMs are still in use by utilities in Spain, Portugal, Cape Verde (in use by the national army) and France and also by the “Guarda Nacional Republicana” (Portuguese Gendarmerie), fire service and military, although the majority of their customers were private individuals.”

It’s supposed to run and drive. “Last of Willys MA Jeep”??
“The 1972 Jeep wagoneer is the last year that willys MA Jeep. This vehicle has a V8 motor, power steering, new radiator, new brakes , new tires, new muffler, new shocks, leaf Springs have been re-arched, and the rear window rolls down by a crank. She is rough to look at, but is fun in the mud!!!’
The rear bed has been shortened. There is a title “situation”. Still, it looks like an interesting project.
“1983 Jeep CJ-8 Scrambler project. Great overall condition. Factory hardtop, bulkhead and doors are in excellent condition, too. With little work this would make a killer rig.
Tub and rear frame have been professionally Bobbed (shortened) which leaves the factory wheelbase intact, but reduces the rear overhang and improves departure angle dramatically…ideal for rock crawling. Looks awesome!
Poison Spider rock crawler armor all around – rear corners, rockers with rock sliders, and front fenders. Body is in excellent shape. Paint could use some attention. Continue reading →
Hard to find these in this price range. It does have rust and may need a clutch.
“Clutch not engaging after yesterday, Plowed excellent all day, I assume it needs a new clutch. Needs to be towed
Very original/stock cj8 with rare 4cyl, all parts are excellent including top, interior, ect… just has a rotted body of course….. fenders, windshield frame, hood and frame very good. Drive as is for now and restore later with new tub ($2300 in primer)
Ran and drove great and everything works as it should except heater fan. Plow works excellent with recent overhaul of parts/fluid. Great acreage vehicle or restore project. New radiator and brake line.
I have done auto body for over 30 years and understand how rare these are and much more rare to find unmolested! Easy resto or driver…
Not ambitious about selling, so cash with no offers or texts!!!”
