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 .
I thought this looked interesting. It is a shortened truck on a CJ-6 chassis. Not a bad fit.
“1949 Willys pickup. Shortened 18″, on cj6 chassis, cj7 front and rear axle with all new brakes, rewired with LED tail lights, power steering, power brakes, tilt. Needs finishing and needs some carburetor work from sitting. Rims and tires pictured are not included.”
“1943 Ford army jeep with title. Truck was originally purchased after Korean War, painted red now its olive drab is peaking through. It has not ran in years but was parked due to grandpa passing. I want to trade this for a 1/2 ton short wheel base1947-55 chevy truck in an original state other words no v8’s subframes, etc. I want to keep it 6cyl and original front end. Please contact me with what you have. I’ll post a pic of what Im looking for.”
(12/13/2013) This is a mix of parts, but looks nice.
“This is actually a 1942 Ford GPW Jeep with a MB Willys Slat Grill and engine. Strangely enough, the original owner saw the slat grill and had it titled as a Willys, but the frame serial number is a `42 Ford. It has many “F” Script parts. I have intended to change the grill out and re-title it a Ford, but have been procrastinating on that. I bought it in 2008 and converted it to 12volt. It still needs some work, but it is a good reenacting and parade jeep, which is what I intended its use to be. Several extra parts to go with it including: new rear seat cushions, extra Jerry Can, Garand Rifle Scabbard, OD Tarp, Canvas Windshield Cover, Gussets, Manuals, etc. See the attached photos. I am asking $9,500 OBO.”
“Here is a unique project vehicle. 1958 3/4 ton Kaiser Jeep FC-170 Forward Control Pickup. I’ve had this since 2000 but several other projects have taken priority. I have several 4×4’s and was considering turning this into a slammed 2WD cruiser truck, but I now need to thin the herd. This is a pretty solid starting point. Set up for a small block Chevy/TH400. They have been pulled but are still available for additional cost. I traded original 9′ bed for a beat up one, intending to use the base to create a flat/stake bed. All 8 pieces of glass intact except for passenger door window, which is easy to have made. Comes with additional NOS windshield with rubber included ($500 10 years ago) Also comes with these add’l parts: front fiberglass fender flares, set of 5 stock wheels with zero miles roller tires, pair of stronger Chevy axles- corporate 10 front w/discs, 12 bolt rear, both 4.56 gears. (or upgrade to pair of 3/4 ton Dodge 44 HD front w/flat knuckles for xover steering/ Dana 60 full float rear, both 8 lug 4.10 gears), set of steel 8 lug wheels. 327 Chevy small block w/TH400 negotiable. Clear title, pink in hand. $2,500 w/o options.
I also have a ’65 Jeep Wagoneer in another ad.

(02/24/2014) I can’t tell for sure, but this stock jeep looks like it might have a rare set of “Hublock” hubs. My second guess are a set of rare Allstate hubs. Runs and drives.
“Looking to sell my 1948 CJ2A Willys Jeep pulled from a barn. It is all original, and runs like a champ. Started and drove in 0 degree weather and made it around town in 14″ of snow. Just replaced headlamps, distributor, plugs, wires, shocks, etc”
“This is a very cool classic Willys CJ-2a Jeep. This particular Jeep was modified very early on with a high-side kit and Expedition rack to serve as a Forest Service fire trail go-anywhere rig. The back seat was removed, a utility lock box placed, and the Expedition rack built to hold two 5-gallon fuel cans w/a locking strap, Hi-lift Jack w/same, and a full-sized matching spare tire. It was painted Fire Engine Red way back then, and has a wonderful vintage patina that really goes with the overall vibe of the rig.
“Up for sale is a 1952 Willy’s Army Jeep. Good condition. Motor only has a few hundred miles on rebuild. New tires. Clear title. Runs and drives. Needs a little brake work. Would be a great one to restore or use as is around the farm. cash only no checks. No shipping. 618.397.97zero zero”
On this year’s trip we’ll have a few different items you can buy from us as we travel. If you want the items mailed to you, we’ll figure out a way to do that, too. Just email me (d @ ewillys.com). Everything is first come first serve.
The purposes of these items should be pretty obvious: 1) help raise money for our trips, 2) provide unique, vintage jeep items you won’t see elsewhere, and 3) to promote the community of vintage jeeps. For me, it makes the whole eWillys adventure more fun.
SHIRTS are $20 each: They shirts are good quality material that is 60% ring spun cotton and 40% polyester. They are light and very comfortable. The image is based on a WWII bond-drive image printed on an envelope.
1. Olive Drab: I only have Large and X-Large.
2. Gray: I have a couple of Smalls, Mediums and XXL. Mostly, I have Larges and X-Large.
BOOKS are $20 each: Of course, don’t forget about my books. We’ll have copies of both. For those that don’t know, Finding Virginia is personal journey of mine, including my history with jeeps and more. The Amber Panels is an adventure/fiction novel based around the real Amber Panels. Of course, jeeps find there way into it, too.
One of the reasons for we are detouring down to Sante Fe, New Mexico, is to visit the Bataan Museum. WWII in the Pacific and the Philippines will play a role in book three, tentatively titled October Gold. POSTERS are $10 each: Not many left, but we’ll be carrying some of these with us as well. These are professionally printed 18″x12″ posters. I have varying amounts of each. Want more than one? We can make a deal.
