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: Was on eBay. **SOLD**
(09/01/2010) The exhaust comes out the front.
“I am selling a 1956 willys gas truck runs and drives needs brakes and water pump. colorado title nice truck.”

(08/28/2010) Now that look like a giant Tonka toy!

Mathew spotted this. Available for sale in Monroe Center, Il, this unusual piece of Willys history is something I’d never seen. After some research, I discovered another one of these that sold for $4000 a couple years ago, though it was powered by a ford 2.3 liter engine.

Here is a slat grille MB converted into a truck. I found it at the U.S. Military Forum. This was as custom conversion using tin and wood.
You can view the entire thread here.
UPDATE: This appears SOLD, but was listed at $800.
I could be wrong, but the slopes and cut of the passenger and driver’s sides look very similar to a Willys MA, thought maybe a Ford GP as well?. This has been hacked up a bit, but it’s worth a look. Check out what appears to be an emergency brake as well.
“Clear title has orignal old style pink slip non op for 20 years but probably off dmv record now… 4×4 ran when parked 10 years ago”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
Here’s an unusual flattie.
“1947 Willys Jeep body mounted on a Chevy S-10 2wd chassis. Front power disc brakes. Chevy 383 stroker motor with roller rockers and forged domed pistons. Turbo 350 trans. Runs and drives great. Needs lights wired and windshield to be street legal. Lots of new parts. I have a title for the Willys Jeep. $2500”
UPDATE: This was $700 .. now $1200
(10/10/2009) It’s not street legal. To call it a “great project” might be stretching things.
“CHEVY V8 350 W/350 TRANS NEW BRAKES FRONT AND REAR TOP COMES OFF NOT STREET LEGAL GREAT PROJECT WHATEVER YOU WANT TO USE IT FOR RUNS GOOD DOES NOT SMOKE NEW BATTERY AND WIPER MOTOR TAG IT AS A ANTIQUE AND YOU DON’T HAVE TO HAVE IT INSPECTED LOTS OF POWER CALL BILL FOR DETAILS 757 6422202 (THIS IS NOT STREET LEGAL AND ALTHOUGH IT RUNS DRIVES AND STOPS IT IS A WORK IN PROGRESS AND WILL NEED TO BE TRAILERD!!!!!) …..”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8500.
Here’s an aluminum flattie body on a modified Ford Bronco chassis. As I mentioned in a post last week, the vented hoods are very rare. I’m not sure if that’s aluminum or steel.
“Unique aluminum bodied CJ2 Jeep. This is a professionally built for off road, but very streetable CJ2. It is a real eye catcher. It features a highly modified 1974 Bronco chassis with 4 wheel disc brakes, dual master cylinders, urethane bushings, power steering, trans. cooler, power steering cooler, etc. It sits on, like new, 35X10X15 Goodyears. Power is supplied by a fresh 351w ford with edelbroch manifold and newly rebulit edelbrock 4 barrel, connected to a modified c-4 trans.and headers. It is an older construction, but is done right! I prefer cash, but will consider a trade for a nice cj or wrangler or ? and cash. ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
It runs! And includes the lawn chair I imagine!
“No Body, Runs, Drivable,Kaiser Super Sonic Motor,4 Cyl,”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.
Assuming the data plate belongs to this jeep, I’d guess this jeep to be a late ’46 at the earliest — not that it really matters given the custom mods.
“NO TITLE NOT SURE IF IT WAS BUILD BY SOMEBODY OR IT IS ORGINAL WITH THE BED.WHEN I BOUGHT IT THE OLDER GENTELMAN SAID IT IS A 1945 BUT I’M NOT SURE WHAT YEAR IT IS IT’S AROUND THAT YEAR FOR SURE. HAS A FLATHEAD 4. HAS 3 SPEED TRANS IT RUNS AND DRIVES IT JUST DON’T HAVE BRAKES.HAS LOW AND HIGH RANGE 4 WEEL DRIVE ALL WORKS DO HAVE WINDSHEILD TO GO WITH IT.”
