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 .
Listed as a 1947, this has a windshield with he square bow holder bolt heads. It also has three dash plates. The body has been repaired and drain holes removed. I don’t see a bolt head on the passenger side pan for the bolt that would secure the body to a frame mount.
“For sale 1947 CJ 2A has PTO 2.5 inch Rancho springs and shackles. New exhaust. Locking hubs. 8000 lb Ramsey winch. Runs goes and stops. It comes with a bolt on stiff hitch. $10,000”
(08/18/2018) It’s supposed to have an overdrive, but I don’t see an overdrive shift lever.
“1945 willys MB parade ready to go… overdriver trans so you can go on the highway orginal 4 cyl flat head. with tow bar and trailer to put it on . pretty much every thing brand new .”
I bought these two items off of eBay. If I understand correctly, these are mats, produced by the Congress Electrotype Company, were formed from an original engraving. They were then placed wrapped onto a cylinder with other mats to form a newspaper (or magazine?) page. A metal mold is then created from that, which is used to print the pages.
I had erroneously assumed when purchasing them that they would be thick, heavy metal plates (before I understood how the process worked), but they are actually extremely light and pliable. I assume these were extras, never used? They may be a paper mâché of some type (they are that light), which was one of the processes historically used, or something similar,
I’ve taken pics from above and at an angle to show the depth. I have to say that I’m not really sure these were worth buying, but I doubt many survived (these are the first I’ve ever seen anywhere).
“1950 Willys Cj3a, 231 Buick V6, T90 3spd with OD. Rebuilt Starter, Carburetor, New water pump, Radiator, New Best top needs to be installed yet. Runs and drives sound, Would Trade for a Three or Four Horse trailer Slant Load or 5600 Cash”
“This wagon has no rust! All windows are in perfect shape. All lights and switches work minus the fuel gauge and speedometer. It has a 327 SBC V8 engine that starts right up with zero smoke. It has a 4 barrel carb. Power brakes. Power steering. 350 automatic transmission. Front disk brakes. An updated rear end but unsure of make. This thing was done correctly by an older gentlemen and built as a cruiser. It has dual straight pipes. GM steering column. No headers or loud exhaust. It is a great driver just the way it is. New tires. It’s not perfect or I would be asking 15k for it.
Open to trades or trade plus cash. No lowballers. Come look at it and make me an offer.”
