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 $8800.

“1947 jeep fully gone thru new shocks brakes clutch some gauges. Springs upgrades, 1958 f head engine installed. No top. Clean Montana title. Must make appointment to see it’s 20 miles away from me located in Troy Mt.”

“This is a complete frame of rebuild. Front and rear diffs new motor tranny clutch and transfer case. New brakes break lines etc. Has a 4″ suspension lift and a 2″ body lift to clear the newer F head motor. 5 brand new wheels and tires. Raptor lined complete bottom side of body and complete inside of tub. This was a rust free unit to start with. New paint wire harness and gauges. Super fun to drive but with 588 gears doesn’t go real fast. Only 60 miles since resto-mod. With over 20k spent! Asking$9750. Would consider trades. Hot rods classic cars. Can ad money for the rite trade.. Please call Danny with questions (509)993-783nine”
This looks to be a DJ-3A body that originally had the open sides, but someone filled them in. The body looks to be on a 4WD chassis, but I can’t make out what chassis that is.

“1960’s Jeep Willy’s – Home built kit made”
This sure is an unusual build. I doubt there will ever be another ….

“All Clemson fans take notice!!! This is a custom built truck. This truck was used years ago with the football team as well as others. This truck has been in many parades and tailgate events. I discovered this truck a couple years ago and had to have it. This truck is built from 5 different vehicles. The list is as follows: Titled as 1981 Jeep J-10 truck 4×4 chassis, 1946 Ford car front, 1970’s Mail Jeep cab, 1955 International bed that has hydraulic lift, 1951 Ford truck grill. She has an in-line 4.0 Jeep 6 cylinder engine. Power brakes and steering. Runs quit like a Singer sewing machine. Travels straight as an arrow at 70 mph. One of a kind and wins shows everywhere she’s entered. Be prepared for many questions if you’re the lucky person to be the next owner. Build cost was estimated at over $20k and I believe it. Great fab work done! Message me only if interested in buying please! Title in hand”
It looks like there may be parts value here.

“Selling a super clean 1946 Willys CJ2A. Was a hunting rig in Eastern Washington in the 60’s and 70’s then parked in a garage for 30 years. Rescued it from storage last year. Does not run, has an overhead valve motor in it that’s stuck. What’s neat is that it has a super clean body, no major rust at all. Was going to pair this with my other CJ2A but just don’t think I’m going to get to it anytime soon”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(05/30/2023) Listed as a 1942, odds are it is a CJ-2A (appears to have the dash ignition holes).

The side vent on the passenger side suggests this is 1959 or later.

“Willys DJ3a, not sure of year. Has 13″ 4 lug wheels i believe came that way from factory. Looks like it has a heater. comes with extra hood. No engine, rolls and steers. No data plates. Been in barn for 25 years.”
Happy Father’s Day everyone. Blaine shared this photo and information about his father. The image shows his father shortly after the purchase of his brand new 1959 CJ-5.
Blaine adds, “My Dad is Leon Higginson, a Pearl Harbor survivor (service info and obituary). He was not on a ship at the time of the bombing, although he was on Ford Island.
The CJ5 was the replacement for a Ford GPW, which went on to a new owner who used it later to tow a parade float and overheated the engine during the parade. I don’t know what parade.
I don’t think I remember ever being in the Jeep as I was 3 years old when he bought a new 1962 Scout. Maybe “Jeep” was ingrained in my memory unknowingly by that time. I remember going to the dealership to pick up the Scout (and to say again, 3 years old).”
I have continued to make progress on the racer.
√ overhead control panel
√ center bar in front (primarily as a conduit for bringing the wiring up to the overhead control panel)
√ seat mounts welded in place
√ mounting bar for shoulder straps (I realized just before I was going to weld in the seat mounts that I didn’t like my original plan for mounting the shoulder straps, so I designed something different.
√ tach holder
√ top drilled and temporarily attached .. need to pull off to clean top and for painting cage.
Next,
1) weld mounts for the side bars and netting
2) finalized body mounts
3) finalize front clip mounts
Getting there ….
