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 .
Ann says they tilted the camera for this shot. I can’t tell for sure. This photo was featured in the March 1955 issue of the Willys News and shows Vice President Hickman Price descending a steep gradel in a CJ-5.
Here’s an unusual piece.

May need a transfercase rebuild and a new clutch, but I still think this may be a good price.
1952 Canadian military M38 “jeep” built buy Ford of Canada.
A direct copy of the Willy’s American built M38 with a few custom features for the Canadian Government.

The Good:
Runs great! Has a Jasper rebuilt engine, Starts right up and is quiet and smooth.
Brakes are in excellent shape. New master cyl and 90% plus brake shoes.

UPDATE: This was listed on BAT’s auction, but only reached $11,600, less than its reserve.**SOLD** Was on ebay
“This Jeep CJ-3A is a restored example that was featured on BaT in January of 2014. Power is supplied by a L-134 “Go Devil” four-cylinder and 3-speed manual transmission. The seller states that the previous owner purchased the jeep from the second owner in 2003, and restoration work was completed in 2004. It has been co-owned by the seller and a business partner since 2014. Just under 21k miles have been driven since the completion of restoration work, around 500 miles of which were driven during the seller’s ownership. Details of the restoration include replacement of the body tub, sandblasting and refinishing the frame, a new top and interior, and detailing of the mechanical components.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7000

“Fun Jeep Lifted, 33inch tires, 302, 3 speed”

Are the headlights recessed? There’s something different here.
“This jeep has been on my farm and doesn’t get driven. I just sent it to the mechanic and had a new starter installed and some wiring repaired. The jeep looks good, has the original engine, but the body has some obvious previous repair work performed. I never had a title, this vehicle is old enough that it can be sold with a bill of sale.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500.
(10/15/2017) Almost original condition with a few minor changes.

UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $6000.
(07/21/2017) Craig shared this one. Seller wants $6000 for all the jeeps.
“I have 4 Willys Jeeps. ’49, ’60, ’65, & ’69. I have titles to all except the ’69. The ’49 alone is worth the price of entire lot. I want $6,000 for ALL. I will NOT separate at this time! I may sell the ’49 by itself but prefer to sell the whole lot. Please don’t text me asking me for a book of information back and forth. It’s much easier to CALL! I can also help with transport AFTER the deal has been made. I am willing to trade the entire lot up or down for a TJ or JK Jeep. May be interested in other trades but Jeep preferred. I thought I would have time for a few projects but that has changed so I’m selling them all. It would honestly be easier to come in person and check them all out. Missing parts here, extra parts there, etc. PLEASE no calls or texts after 11pm.”
