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 .
No updates for Sunday. We toured the backroads of the Washington’s Palouse area on Saturday. On Sunday we’ll be heading up to Spokane. From there we haven’t decided where we are heading. So, no updates tonight or Sunday, but I’ll make sure there will be something for Monday.
On the jeep hunting front, we found and took pics of a great old fiberglass racer in parked in ‘downtown’ Benge, Washington.
Here’s a photo from Steptoe Butte State Park, a place that has a 360 degree view of Washington’s Palouse area. We just happened by the entrance; I’d never heard of the place. Here’s Ann, I and Zollie (short for Zoloft) looking north over the surrounding farmlands.
This looks solid. It is listed as a ’46, but with the spare tire on the driver’s side, it may be a “lefty”. This also has the wrong grille for a ’46.

“1953 Willys Jeep CJ3b. 4 cylinder overhead valve. New fuel pump, newer barrey. Runs drives. Calls only Will not answer any text messages. Local sells only. Will not ship.”
“1965 Jeep CJ-6. Strong four cylinder motor. Runs and drives great. Ready for use either at the deer lease, on the beach, or as a daily driver. Barn kept and ready to go!”
This looks like a good restoration project, but the engine is stuck.
“1952 Jeep M38 This is one of the nicest M38’s to come along in a long time. NO RUST! Solid all the way around except for the large transmission cover panel. I have included a different one to replace it.
If you have ever wanted an easy project that would result in a top of the line restoration, don’t wait.
Very complete, only missing a few minor cosmetic items. The engine is stuck from sitting. All the 24V electrics are intact. This jeep originally had the arctic heater package on it which is why the cowl vent panel is not on the windshield.
“1942 Willy’s frame with fibroglass body.
No title, bill of sale only.
There has been alot done underneath the jeep. Please look at the pictures.
Front fuel tank not included.
I do have a set of 4 paddle tires and rims for the jeep if interested for an additional amount.”
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was on Craigslist. No price provided.
(10/08/2013) Some serious money was spent on this build.

(10/06/2013) This looks nice. I wonder if this was originally a lefty? If so it’s a ’48.
“For sale is a 1947 Willys CJ-2A. It was completely restored about 8 years ago. Complete frame up restoration including an engine rebuild. Nearly everything is original. Body had floors replaced and frame had some reinforcing. The whole jeep is painted in POR15 products–the body is painted in their 2 part epoxy. Electrical was converted to 12 volt. Has original glass fuel pump and oil filter. Head is actually stamped Ford from an earlier military jeep. Tires are in excellent shape. As with any vehicle so old, there are some little things that can always be done.”
