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 .
Willys jeep between 1956-59- I think. Needs some TLC. Motor runs with new battery. Great project for deer lease vehicle. Need some work on the clutch & brakes as well a fuel tank/system. Has exhaust leak on manifold but can be fixed with new gasket.
Too Slow for this one, listing removed, but here are the details.
“Andy’s Picks”
Seller’s description
Jeep fj6 step van 2006 Chevy express 3500. Unfinished project, runs but needs front floors, steering, pedals and brake booster as well as wiring. 5.3l ls with 4l80e with stand alone harness, express front clip with 2x4x1/4” rear frame, lots of tig welding, built right. New fuel pump, lines and tank, Yukon 3rd row leather seat, and safari windshield frames. Driveshaft is in, new leaf spring bushings and shackles. 14 bolt rear axle, 8 lug truck. Started at my old work but switched jobs, and it doesn’t fit in my shop at home to finish.
100% to me this ad was fake, it’ was posted on Craigslist out of Brooklyn, NY but it’s in the incorrect area of the site for Jeeps / Willys and vehicles in general.
The photos and description shared are from a different site where the rig was for sale for double the price
1952 Willys M38A1 – $12,000
1952 Willys M38 Military Jeep. Fully Restored, museum quality, no rust, always garage kept. This Jeep served in Korea. Lots of fun to drive, starts right up. Everything works, Horn, fuel gauge, wipers, lights, all gauges, everything.
Too good to be true it probably is…. it is a nice looking Willys.
Don’s selling this CJ-2A, one he believes to be a former Shell station jeep (the tailgate suggests it may have been a service station unit). The blue on the tailgate matches the blue on other parts of the jeep, so it appears to be original to it.
“1948 Willys CJ2A Jeep Ex Service Station Jeep. Original body with a few small rust areas. A previous owned sprayed can painted the Jeep in a camo pattern and we decided to remove the camo paint back down to the original Normandy Blue paint. The grill is back to its original color along with most of the dash and tailgate. On the tailgate we discovered the wording “SHELL ROAD SERVICE” so this Jeep at one time was used at a Shell service station. It also has one of the 250lb front weights, four axle bumper spacers, and it looks like some type of lift was attached to the bed at one time.
New and Rebuilt Parts include: Wiring harness, battery cables, coil, points, condenser, distributor cap and rotor, plug wires, plugs, rebuilt generator, fuel sending unit, coil, keyed switch. Brake master cylinder, wheel cylinders, brake shoes, lines, Dot5 silicone brake fluid. Bearing and shaft for the bell-crank, tie rod ends, wheel bearing seals, wheel bearings serviced, drag link rebuilt.”
Quite possibly the nicest wagon it will ever find for sale.
Runs great. Chevy 350 w/ Holley Sniper fuel injection. GM 700R4 4speed Transmission. Dual reservoir brake system w/ front disc brakes. Dana 44 rear axle w/ large breaks. Extra large fuel tank. Front bucket seats. Bluetooth stereo with overhead sound bar. Four-wheel-drive with low range. Original speedometer works and is accurate but bounces a little at low speed.
I have all the Chrome trim for it, if you like that look.
UPDATE: Buz reached out to say this is still available. He dropped the price to $550.
Buz is selling this unique windshield frame for the M-38. He has the paper work from the Government and work order to document its origins. Contact Buz Kanzenbach via phone 757 403 9964 or email buzkan @ att.net (remove spaces around the @).
“Split M-38 windshield excellent shape. This is a rare item! Authorized By Order of the Army, The Secretary of The Army. When it was broken during the Korean War it was transferred from a 1 piece two a 2 piece, to save glass. I know of only 2 frames in existence.”
Here are a few others from the archives that might be M-38 split windshields
UPDATE: I was surprised to recently see a 1953 ad for a Farm ‘Jeep’ in the Nevada State Journal (March 05, 1953, pg 9). Remember that the Farm ‘Jeep’, along with the ‘Jeep’ Tractor, were models produced mostly in 1951 and 1952, along with a line of jeep implements.
As you can see from this timeline reproduced below from the CJ-3A.info page, there were very few Farm ‘Jeep’s produced at all and none in 1953, though a handful of CJ-3B Farm ‘Jeep’s were made (see CJ-3B page for more info on the 3B version). So the use of the ad is curious.
