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 .
This late 1940s brochure was produced by the Krause Plow Corporation out of Hutchinson, Kansas. The Company has a long history and is still in business today.
This rare brochure probably doesn’t mean much to most folks, but hopefully it’s important to someone.
UPDATE: Still Available.
(08/15/2019) This has a replacement body.

“49 Willy’s Jeep with a 4 cylinder Ford pinto motor. Air lockers front and rear. I have a bikini top and a soft top for it.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.
(11/29/2018) includes a never mounted soft top.
“Nice ’47 Willy’s in good shape with great road tires & new spare, tow bar, soft top (which I’ve never put on), upgraded seats in front and back and licensed as an Antique which means no more annual licensing fees. This unit starts well when used weekly (otherwise a bit of help – starting fluid might be in order) and she is still in need of some help with her braking system and some minor oil leaks. These projects were on my list of “to dos” but I have moved on so looking to move her along to someone who’s ambition is more than mine at this time. Great as is for a slow cruiser or to continue fixing up as an upgrading project. Asking $5,000.”
Again, I’ve run into email problem with my ewillys account. Please send any inquiries going forward to d@deilers.com.
The fuel and speedometer gauges do not work.

This M-170 has been modified, but there’s enough left to suggest it’s a 1952 or early 1953 M-170.
“I was told this is a 53 or 54 Willys. I don’t know if this is a CJ2A or not. Story I got was it was used in the 70’s to deliver mail in one of our mountain communities and then parked in the 80’s. Carb is gone so so way to try and start. Some rust spots. Motor is supposed to be a 327 Chevy. Not sure about the transmission or transfer case. Axles look stock. No title, just a bill of sale.”
The body may have a few dents. A ‘running when parked’ jeep. Seems like it’s in pretty good shape.

“Was running when parked. No trades or payments”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.
This may be an assemblage of parts, as it appears this has an MB/GPW body and a later model rear axle.

Looks like a good price. I will be around there next week and could pick it up/mail it if necessary.
