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: Price dropped to $1200.

The Taylors of Walnut Hill, Kansas, were featured in the March 1948 issue of Country Gentleman. They owned the Walnut Hill Hereford Ranch. I googled the ranch, but it no longer appears active under that name.
According to the article, “Tom Taylor bought his his CJ-2A jeep with some misgivings, but the jeep is probably his favorite piece of equipment. He now declares he wouldn’t know how to farm without it.”
Closeup of the CJ-2A
The article also notes, “The most original item is their repair-trailer, a wheeled frame of six-inch tubular steel which serves as compressed-air tank, carrying its own power, equipped for spray-painting, lubrication-pressure, welding and acetylene-torch cutting.”
Custom trailer for welding, cutting and mobile power. It appears the CJ-2A has an bed extender along with an extra tall rear seat (custom seat?).
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
And now I lay myself to sleep, atop a Waco Army Jeep . . . There can’t be many of these pillowcases left.
“This is a MILITARY PILLOWCASE FROM THE WACO ARMY FLYING SCHOOL IN WACO, TEXAS, CIRCA 1943. I COULD NOT GET IT ALL IN MY LEGAL SIZE SCANNER SO I SCANNED 5 IMAGES OF THE PILLOWCASE AND ONE IMAGE OF THE POSTAL BOX IT CAME IN. THE BOX WAS ADDRESSED TO LENA JANE RUSSELL IN CORSICANA, TEXAS.. AND BOX WAS FROM PRIVATE C. J. BELLRINGER OR BELLVINGER ? IN WACO, TEXAS. WHEN YOU LAY THIS THING DOWN, IT MEASURES APPROXIMATELY 20″ x 20″ IN SIZE.”
Does anyone know if this was really used in a showroom?

“1977 Jeep Mitsubishi, in original condition and excellent shape. The top is immaculate, the interior in excellent shape and no rust, dents, or scratches. The tires are cracked because they are from 1977, they are the OME.
There are no leaks, it does not need anything mechanically either. Everything is functional on this jeep. The original tools and Owners Manual are included in the sale. It is registered in British Columbia Canada. This Jeep is unique and in unbelievable condition, springs and other components have no rust and the body/tub is rust free as well.
This jeep was always garaged, never driven in snow, never offroaded. The plastic top windows are clear and in excellent shape, the top frame is mint and complete.
It has High/Low, 4×4 & 4×2 Tranny & Transfer case that work flawless
Has a posi-trac rear end.
The fuel economy is exceptional. (Approx. 25-30 MPG 2×2) (In 4×4 & extreme conditions less)
Basically this is a CJ3B body with far better running gear, motor, power, heating system, with defrosters, that the early Willy’s with the overhead cam hurricane motors just did not have
Everything works on this Jeep – Radio, Turn signals, everything. Being a 100HP, it is REALLY snappy and it is a 4-speed and will cruise effortlessly at 60-65MPH without overdrive and without Warn locking hubs, which can be installed.
The master cylinder brake system, helps the truck brake much safer than older jeeps. The heater works perfect and makes this truck usable in winter months. This truck is much easier and safer to drive than the older CJ2 Cj3.”
Has some rust issues, but runs.
“For sale is a 1955 Willy’s M170. This is the ambulance that the mitary used along side the M38A1. The only difference is the frame is extended to accommodate stretchers. It has the flat head four cylinder motor and a three speed transmission. It has hi and low range with four wheel drive hi and low. It does run. The only problems are on the passenger side floor board and fender as you can see in pictures have started to rust and the floorboards will need replacing eventually. The place on the side could be bondoed and painted up. Also it comes with extra parts. A transfer case, a transmission, and some other miscellaneous stuff. I have about $3000 in the jeep but need it gone so I will consider offers. My number is 334-703-0945. Call me if you have anymore questions.”
