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 .
(05/16/2018) “1948 WILLYS CJ2A JEEP HARD TO FIND
RESTORE STARTED BY PRE-OWNER , ORIGINAL ENGINE,
134 CID L-HEAD ” GO DEVIL MOTOR ” ORIGINAL RUNNING GEAR,
6 VOLT SYSTEM, NEW STARTER, NEW SEATS, NEW STEERING WHEEL,
NEW IGNITION SWITCH, NEW WINDSHIELD, NEW BRAKES,”
Needs some wiring, but runs and drives. Seller also has some other parts.
“1960 Willys CJ-3B. All original with the overhead 134ci engine. Runs, drives and stops. Needs seat belts and electrical work to be legal. Headlights, stop and turn signals do not work. I do have the title.
I have a number of extra parts to go with it as I was going to do the Buick V6 conversion. Including a 1978 Buick Odd Fire 231 V6 engine, spare T-90 trans with long input shaft, adapter plate for the T-90 to Buick, Buick bellhousing and exhaust manifolds.
I also have the original metal hard top, two new fenders, BFG Mud Terrain tires, new black wheels, Rancho springs, SM-465 trans and bellhousing, extra cj-3b frame, a cj-2a frame and a set of axles I think from a Willys wagon.”
UPDATE: We read through the ER Docs notes online this morning. We discovered that there was mention of the uterus going through the muscle wall. Why the ER doc did not mention this to us, I can’t say. But, when we did the research, we found her symptoms match that diagnosis. We now feel we are onto something. She’s been making calls all morning to arrange a local emergency hysterectomy with a local gynecological group (we think we have VA approval for this … still working the system). Now, we are just waiting on return calls.
Original post: Just a few updates today. We spent most of yesterday in the ER with Ann doubled over with lower abdominal-area pain. Just like our Nov 20th ER visit in Seattle, the docs could find no clues as to what is causing it. There’s no infection, no signs of any internal organ problems, no increase in white blood cell counts, etc, etc. So, they concluded it’s a uterus problem (and she did have surgery on it last month), but offered no specifics. They said it something they said they couldn’t address, and they sent us home late last night with pain pills. Frustrating!!!
“These Jeepster Convertibles are very rare, records indicate that fewer than 3,000 were made from 1967-’69. I purchased this Jeepster in 2015, from the second owner in Grants New Mexico. He was a WWII B-17 navigator who flew over 16 bombing missions over Nazi Germany, and wrote a couple books about his experiences (Google Flak Happy, Authorhouse).
Anyways, he purchased it in 1971 in Patterson, California from a new Chevy dealer. He used it as his family car for several years, and even pulled a 16′ travel trailer for family vacations. I have several slide show slides (remember those?) of his travels with the Jeep back in the 1970’s. In 1986, he brought it to New Mexico, where it has resided ever since. Being a southwestern vehicle its entire life, there is very little rust (primarily surface rust). The Jeepster has 92,000 original miles. Continue reading →

It’s priced at $6k, but the seller is willing to consider offers. Thanks to TJ for spotting it!
“Purchased in 1978 from the Phillipines, this stainless steeel kit has never been used. I am guessing it is from around 1944 but buyer is to verify if that is important to you. Purchase does not include any type of title or other paperwork. This vehicle has never been registered.
It is in excellent vintage condition. Please consider all photographs as part of the condition. The body has some small scratches that could be buffed out. Continue reading →
Home of the “Original Sheepherder’s Bread”, Erick Schat’s Bakkery (not a misspelling) in Bishop, California (not too far from the eastern entrance of Yosemite National Park) has a beautiful wagon parked out front.
This photo is a stock photo from the internet, so there are some lines and “A”s across it. I cleared some off, but some remain.
UPDATE: I mistakenly listed this as a 1954 ad. It am told it was actually a 1956 ad.
Andy spotted and bought this 1956 CJ-5 ad on eBay. The jeep has an odd look about it. I think it’s the 1) skinny fenders, 2) thinner than normal hood and 3) odd grille. It makes it feel a little bit like some kind of CJ-4 (though the actual CJ-4 has flattish fenders). The headlights on the grille in the ad look more like 7″ headlights on an MB grille.
“1956 Willys Jeep CJ5. Six cylinder Studebaker engine, three speed transmission. Engine was built with new block, pistons, rods, head, carburator, and many other new parts. Engine balanced. Approximately 4 thousand miles on engine, rebuilt transmission, transfer case, and all new brakes. 8000lb. Ramsey pto winch. Looking for a 1957 or 1958 Chrysler or Desoto. Might be interested in a trade.”
