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 .
A couple folks contacted me asking about this one. The seller is convinced this is a shortened wagon. I did try searching “2wd shorties”, but didn’t see anything about jeeps. I have tried to document very short wagons here, however the wagon in the photo looks standard to me. Anyone have insights?
“I have a 2wd willys wagon shortie Project no motor or tranny (the motor and tranny Sold) floor boards are rusted, i have seats that can go with it if u want them have to Many projects may part trade for two sparco race seats or ? Please do not email Dont call me telling me they didnt make them cuz thats Bull crap i got 2 sitting in my yard and i got paper work for one to prove they made it and do not flag my ad Look up the 2wd shorties and try telling me Im asking to much”
“This is a solid running and driving old Jeep. Body is in good shape. There is some rust repair underneath and the usual dents and dings.(not a show car) Newer F-head engine runs like a champ and no leaks. The seals leak on the tranny and transfer case. This does not effect the drivability, I just found it easier to refill every couple months as to a repair!(I’ve found most Jeeps of this era like to “mark their territory”) Interior has newer seats w/ seatbelts.(could use some seat covers) Has been converted to 12v. I also have the frame and doors for the soft top but NO soft top skin. I have more pictures available and please call with ANY questions. I’ve owned this rig for about a year and am only parting with it because I recently acquired a 1944 MB! Willing to trade for a mid-life crisis! I’m looking for an old muscle car 60’s or 70’s. An ’82-90 Camaro could work too.(no v6’s) Maybe a pop up camper in REAL good shape(no junk) or anything cool and automotive related NO boats I’m not looking to re-assemble a project or pick up a basket case. Call with any offers I can trade up or down with cash or other items(air tools, bang sticks, guy stuff) Mine runs and drives, yours should too! I am willing to do some work and have no delusions of grandeur. Just want to make fair trade.”
Jim spotted this good price on a pair of M-151s projects or parts jeeps.
“Pair of M151MUTTs one was produced by Willys which is a 63 model. The other was produced by Ford and was built in 66. Both are uncut. Neither run. The 66 has a title but the 63 does not. There are spare parts and a spare complete power pack which consists of radiator engine and transmission.“
“Call for all questions. If you text or email I probably won’t respond. I bought this Jeep thinking I would be able to use more of it than I can, so I’m putting some of the parts up for sale. I believe it to be a 1949 WILLYS Cj-3a . I’m keeping the body and wheels/tires . Mostly I will be selling chassis parts. Here is a list of the parts that I know I don’t need Frame with current 1949 WILLYS Texas title $450 Transmission and transfer case $200 Rear axle $100(SOLD) Front axle $100(SOLD) Disassembled but complete flathead L-134 engine (has slight ridge in cylinders) $150(SOLD) Radiator $30 needs work ALL 4 16″ wheels with 16″ NDT Military tires- old tires and some of the lug holes have issues. $400 for the set”

“Hi, I’m looking to sell my 1948 Willy’s cj2a jeep project. It is all original and in need of some work. It has all the parts except a battery, I even have metal for the bodywork. It needs body work including floors, assembly, and the frame needs to be fixed in a spot.
I, also have lots of extra parts, a plow and everything to use it, and a set of 1948 license plates. It doesn’t have a title because it’s so old, but it comes with a bill of sale.
I’m not really in a rush to get rid of it, I don’t really have interest in it anymore and I’d like to get something that has some more power. I am interested in trading for an El Camino, Ranchero, Brat, Rampage, old Dakota, muscle car, or maybe something else let me know, or just cash.”
This map only shows our route from Colville to Priest River, but we drove home late Thursday night.
I stayed up late Wednesday night completing emails and posts, so we stayed in bed until 10AM at Benny’s Colville Inn motel in downtown Colville. The motel was a solid 1 1/2 stars. We had a king bed with slightly uneven box springs. The bottom sheet wasn’t fitted, so it moved easily underneath us. But, the room was quiet, cool, and comparatively cheap. The lobby was unusual, part taxidermy showcase and part firearms museum. The staff was friendly, especially an older female gardner who began to talk to us and wouldn’t stop. I finally had to close the room door, albeit graciously, while she talked until she couldn’t see us anymore. She was a little off . . .
The other oddity we encountered involved the water. When we took our showers, we had the MOST difficult time washing the soap off of us. Either they softened the water too much or there was something else in the water, but neither of us could recall such a difficult time removing soap. Since we’d brought the soap from home, we knew it had to be something in the water (we finally had to use towels to feel clean of the soap).
At 11AM we pulled out of the motel, the temperature already in the low 80s. It was going to be hot again. We drove up to Kettle Falls, then turned to drive north toward Canada. Our first stop was at the Roosevelt Reservoir, a large body of water fed by the Columbia River, which winds through much of Washington State until it flows by our home in Pasco a couple miles away. One of the neat aspects of the Roosevelt Reservoir area is that the shorelines remain free of houses, giving the area a remote, peaceful feeling.
Roosevelt Reservoir behind us.
Back on Hwy 25, we stopped at every campground to evaluate them for future camping. Our favorite place was a small no-reservation campground called North Gorge. This campsite would have been perfect had we brought the motorhome. There were no other sites adjacent to it.
“1947 willy’s jeep

This looks like a nice rig. Seller would prefer locals buyers.
