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.
No key. Hasn’t run recently.
“1948 Jeep Willys for sale $3000 or best offer. We bought from one of our customers about 6 months ago. This jeep has been in their family since their dad bought it back in the day. We have a clear title, plate and manuals. They said it did run at one time and it is missing a key. We liked the jeep so much that we loaded it on our trailer. It definitely needs some work.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
It’s a project with a reproduction tub.
“I just dont have time for this project, This is an excellent willys jeep that is a great project. It has a reproduction body that is very solid, although it does have a small amount of rust but as you can see from the pics, its very straight. It also has a full soft top, and doors, and an excellent roll bar, good gas tank, the brakes work, new fuel pump, and has all the original parts (except air cleaner) . No leaks, I have serviced the entire willys and all rolling stock seems to be good shape.
The engine does smoke and i imagine you will need to rebuild it, but the engine is solid and original, and is not cracked. Also still on 6 volts, with a good battery. The clutch will also need some work, but that is easy once the engine is out. \
If you simply price some of the parts like a repro body, this is great deal on such a project.”
Still needs the steering and brakes finished.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
It’s a project.
“I have a 1951 willys for sale with a 302 V8 from a ford mustang. I have replaced the fuel pump with a new electric fuel pump, new plugs and wires along with cap and rotor, gas tank… This was intended to be a project and just never got around to working on it.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
Has the wrong grille for a 48.
“FOR SALE: 1948 Willys pickup, completely original, with engine, trans, and transfer case, everything there, very restorable or rod, as you want. any questions please call FRED. ASKING $2500.00 OR BEST OFFER”
No pics provided.
“I have a 1947 CJ2 for sale it has the original Hercules motor in it and runs very smooth. I use the jeep on my place when the weather is nice. I put all new front end bearings in it and tie rod ends. The box was extended about 18 inches when I bought it. The person who extended it actually did pretty good work when they did it. Not going to lie it does need some work if you want to fully restore it but that’s to be expected it is a 47 but for the most part it is in fairly good shape all the lights work and horn 4×4 works good both high and low range.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000.
“For sale 46 willys jeep. Jeep runs & drives. Needs battery & front breaks. Has new tires on the rear. Has soft top on it & has hard top to go with it. Have doors to go with soft & hard top. Has a stock heater in it. Asking 6000 or best offer.”
This June 1955 photo shows the huge cougar caught by four hunters using Willys Trucks and Wagons.
John spotted this video. There aren’t any jeeps, but there is some off road action in 1930s Fords. A fun video to watch.
“This evocative film from the early 1930s takes the viewer on a journey from Land’s End to John O’Groats, giving them to opportunity to see all manner of Ford vehicles from that period in action. This includes Ford Populars and V8s through to trucks, tractors and even boats — all using Ford engines. We see some impressive off-road action alongside nostalgic views of the British countryside along the way.”
