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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.

On November 10th, Dan Horenburger passed away. Many of you know him for his unique Forward Control collection, which he showed off at the military FC show this past September, and some who got to know him, knew him for his warm smile and friendly disposition.
Dan and my paths crossed in multiple ways, from Wisconsin and carousels, to Wurlitzers and jeeps. He kept tabs on our travels and often shared advice on what we should see. He once explained how he’d cut his teeth on trading and hustling by reselling items from the Saddleblanket company in El Paso, which made that a must-stop place for us to visit. When we visited his LA place in 2014, he was generous with his time, sharing his various passions. He’ll most certainly be missed.
I’m told Craig Brockhaus and Jesse Ybarra are assembling a more complete remembrance of Dan that they will publish soon. Until then, here’s a short obituary of him:

Well, it isn’t a 1948 grille. If I brought this home I’d be sleeping with it on the porch!
“Incredible bar made from a Model T bumper, a 1948 Willy’s Jeep grill, and a top constructed from 150 year old barn boards”

Appears to have a DJ-3A grille.
“Selling jeep willy it is in perfect condition it runs great and has no leaks. With orginal flat head engine and stock gear with over drive good for offroad or just cruze down the beach.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500.
Maybe some parts value? Has a SN plate indicating it is a 2A, but that’s all I can see.
“One of two:
I have a 1940’s willys CJ-2A for sale.
This one does not have an engine but is complete otherwise.
Selling as is does not have a title.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $650.
This looks to have a set of Warn summer hubs. It’s got a CJ engine. It also has an interesting rear cargo area. Sure looks to have parts value.
“One of two:
Early model Willys jeep for sale:
This willys has an engine but is not running.
Selling as is without a title”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
Runs and plows.
“1953 Willys Jeep. In line four cylinder. All original. With working plow. Less than 17000 miles. She’s rusty but runs and drives. She’s only just been taken off the road. Owned by a 92 year old.
The Jeep is being stored in Stamford, NY, approximately one hour from Albany. ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1850. Includes a PTO winch.
“1964 JEEP CJ5 WILLYS 4CYL,STANDARD SHIFT,HIGH AND LOW RANGE.RUNS AND MOVES.NEEDS SOME TLC.LOOKS TO BE HOMEMADE CAB.4 WAY ELEC PLOW WORKS GOOD ALSO HAS WINCH ON FRONT.”
My initial reaction was that this was pretty rough, but it might look more solid in person that in the pics. For example, the rear cargo area looks in good shape.
“Mostly original Jeep. Rebuilt engine and lots of other work done. Ready for off-road fun.”
