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 .
(09/23/2017) This “1948” has a CJ-3A windshield and an early CJ-2A grille. I’m guessing it’s a bid of parts.
“1948 Willys Jeep most part all complete posting for a friend it’s solid very little rust and none all the drive trains in it motor will need to be overhauled”
“I have a good, pretty much rust free tub, 2 sets of fenders, a grill, one frame that the tub is on [has been modified somewhat but could be brought back easily] rancho springs, steering column, a hood that has been cut for a scoop, another frame that is rusted out at behind the rear springs but has front and rear ends, a trans and transfer case in it and a cowl but the rest of the body is gone and it has a column and box, later ball joint front end with no axles or outers. Also, if you pay my full asking price I WILL INCLUDE A TITLE FOR A 1945 CJ2A. But only if you pay full price and that is not negotiable at all. I also have a Ford 2.3 liter that was going to go into this project, it was propane powered and low hours, I will include it for an extra 300.”
I’ve seen this photo on Getty images, so they likely would claim that the organization owns the copyright on all of these images.
“1945 Press Photo Fisherman Uses A Jeep to Reach Distant Trout Fishing Areas. This is an original press photo. Jeep has a future in postwar America The versatile jeep, which has become known as the “Sweetheart of the Army,” has a future in postwar America, both as an agricultural and industrial machine. All kinds of special bodies, air compressors, and pulley attachments for postwar units can be used with the jeep. Here a fisherman uses the jeep to reach the far-back trout streams and lakes. In low, low gear it reaches these distant pastures which are always too far for the fisherman on foot. Photo measures 8 x 6.25 inches. Photo is dated 05-26-1945.”
Strangely, this 1956 Comic book (#31) on eBay features T-Man (Treasury Man) Pete Trask fighting a “Red Agent” in a Ford GP, while four issues earlier T-Man raced bad guys in a more traditional WWII jeep (see bottom photo). I wonder why the comic switched to an older jeep? Maybe we have to read it to find out??

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5200. Note the steering setup.
(06/28/2017) This runs and drives, though the seller indicates there could be some work to be done.
“1955 Willys Station Wagon 2wd with Ford 289 V8 engine and C6 automatic transmission. Power steering, A/C (needs compressor), tilt steering column, and custom interior. 2 sets of wheels, 2 sets of hub caps, 1 set of spinners, and 2 extra hoods. New tires, distributor cap, rotor, spark plugs, and spark plug wires. Steering and front suspension need work, but vehicle runs good and drives for short distances. You will probably need trailer unless local to Bryan/College Station.”
“This project has been largely completed and is a really rare and unique vehicle .I hate to let it go but have no other choice. The motor was professionally rebuilt years ago but has not been run. Everything needed to complete this project is with it .”
