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 .
Tim’s been working on this M-170, bringing it back to stock. One feature he really likes is the Metro Engineering and Manufacturing Top, which was extended to fit his M-170. Tim’s searching for some M-170 seats (probably the same as M-38A1 seats?? Can someone clarify this??).
“I’ve converted the engine back to 24 volts. The unique thing with this M170 is the top. It’s an M38a1 (I think) top that was cut and stretched 20 inches next to the door. Who ever did this did a great job. I like this better than canvas tops. If some one needs measurements contact me. One photo has the tag info on the top.”
“It’s with great regret that I have to sell my jeep Willys before I could get to it. I have another build that’s going to take all of my attention this year. Literally selling this for exactly how much i have in it which is $3200 firm! I have $1000 in new era correct rims and tires. $700 in restoration parts and paint. As well as a new gas tank. Clear TN title. 1947 jeep Willys drum brakes are disconnected or inoperable. I have only found a couple surface rust spots on the frame. Which is amazing for a cj2. Previous owner said the jeep drove to here house two years ago on its own and was under a tarp ever since. Overall great shape, will be worth a lot even partially restored. Do a broad search you won’t find a better deal!”
“In garage for a few years and one cylinder froze up on me. Everything else is good. Comes with a spare chassis with block. You will have to haul it on a trailer. Make me an offer.”
“1947 Willys Jeep CJ2 body. Has the two front fenders, tailgate intact, NO hood, grill, frame or motor. $500. It has issues on the one side, the passenger side, they added sheet-metal and Bondo. ”
(04/15/2017) Cargo area has a diamond plate floor.
“My uncle has decided it’s time to part with his jeep and has asked me to help him sell it. It is a 1952 willy’s cj3a. 4 cylinder motor, spicer dana 44 posi-trac rear end, t-90 transmission with a warn overdrive. It also has a pto winch. The heater and wipers work. He has had this jeep for along time, at least 30 years and probably longer. He has told me that he rebuilt the motor, painted and undercoated the body since he bought the jeep. He had to have done this sometime soon after he acquired the jeep because I don’t recall him doing anything like that for some years. He is in his 80’s. Anyhow this jeep runs like a top.
I went for a short drive the day I took pictures and it’s incredible to me how smooth everything ran and shifted and also how quiet it was. I didn’t see any rust in any areas other than where your feet sit on the floorboards. The rear of the tub has been replaced with diamond plate, before my uncle owned it. Included are the rear seat and all the bows for a top as well as the door frames. The jeep also has a am/fm radio and a cb radio. I took about 15 pictures which I can send to serious buyers. The jeep is located 2 hrs from my house, so I can’t show it to everyone and will have to plan showings out in advance. Serious inquiries can call. Thanks for your interest. Mike”
