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 .

Cool Air Police jeep. What an interesting hardtop, too.
“1942 Ford GPW(Military Jeep) Ready for restoration. Very little rust. Its been in a barn most of its life. All parts original except headlights. Engine turns and should fire up. Ford script is visible on most parts. Has a large PTO driven winch. 16″ rims. Willing to trade for small tractor with loader, atv or utv. We have a title.”
The body was stretched from it’s CJ-6 size, making it not so much rare as it is custom. A neat jeep though. It’s not clear to me, but I think this was a CJ-6 stretched onto a Scrambler chassis?
“One of a kind very rare. Use it like a truck or a Jeep. No smog required. Clean title, pink in hand. Professional Custom stretch CJ8 Scrambler. Factory 304 v8, t18 4 speed stick shift, model 20 t case twin stick, 4.0 low range. Dana44 rear, Detroit locker, 33 spline shafts, rear warn hubs, front Dana 30, ARB air locker, both with 4.88 gears. On board air engine driven compressor. 4″ lift kit, 33” BFG mud tires. Runs and drives excellent. Lots of power. I have full soft top and full soft doors plus half soft top and half doors. It comes with a very nice tow bar and lift jack. Lots of money invested in this jeep. Very easy to tow because all wheels unlock.
This is great jeep to own for jeep enthusiasts. My price is firm. “
Seller is a little off on the WWII history, but still there is some value here.
“4 Willys jeeps and parts for sale. The Green one is a ’59 CJ5, the engine is not installed and needs to be reassembled. The red and gray Jeeps are ’46s and both have the drive trains installed and are assembled. With very little effort, both of these could be running. The orange one is a ’48 and the engine is not installed. It needs to be assembled, but all the parts to make a running jeep are there. We also have 2 F Head engines and TONS of parts that go to the jeeps. The gray one has a clear title the other threes titles have gone missing some years ago. We are hoping to sell everything together, make us an offer. Would also consider selling individually if the offer is right. These Jeeps were originally made during WWII as military vehicles. This is a great opportunity to own and bring back to life a piece of history. More Pictures available.”
“For being 74 years old this old girl is in pretty good shape. This has been in our family for about 45 years has been stored under cover or inside most of it’s life. Sorry to say that it has not been run for the last 6 or 8 years but has been inside a dry storage shed that whole time. Has less then 24,000 miles on it comes with a second set of axles, another window frame and old style gas cans, and one of the original seats. Motor was rebuilt in the 70’s but it only has been used to hunt with and has probably less then 2000 miles on it since the rebuild. Still a six volt system, my father ran an 8 volt tractor battery in it. Usually you find these in a field missing a bunch of stuff, rusted out and missing the motor.”
(10/30/2015) “54 Willys Jeep CJ3B runs good. Road legal. Has had work done on it but still need a little TLC. 350 Chevy motor conversion. Original over drive. Cruses nice at 55. Selling to pay for college.
Gas tank in back.”
“For sale here is a 1949 Willy’s Jeep. I inherited it from my dad, who had plans for restoring it. Being a student I do not have the funds to restore it. I don’t know much about it other than it was a barn find from Indiana. So it does have some rust damage to the body. It is a rolling chassis. It was fitted for a small block ford engine and transmission. Both of which are still in the chassis. Comes with original Willy’s hood and tailgate. I have also a small block ford long block for it as well. I believe it is the 302 with a roller cam but I honestly have no idea. But the long block was purchased from a ford salvage yard and my dad intended on putting it in the jeep at some point. I will throw in this motor and whatever other parts I have for the Jeep, included in the asking price.”
