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 $2200.
Runs and drives.
(05/26/2013) “1951 willys cj3a needs brakes rebuilt runs and drives could use a tune up needs body work but it is 60 years old.”
UPDATE: **SOLD**
“This is a genuine set of the rare Renegade 1 Kelsey Hayes Jeep wheels. They are the real deal “deep dish” 15×8 Renegade 1 wheel with all 4 KH tags still in tack with the correct part number KH-79005. These only came on 1970 CJ5s that were ordered with the Renegade 1 package. Production number of Renegade 1 wheels have been rumored at only 600 making these relatively rare wheels. You can google “kelsey hayes renegade 1 wheels” and there you’ll find the examples of these wheels with a little history. These wheels are in incredible original condition with no rust, the paint is in excellent condition as well. These have a 5 on 5 1/2 bolt pattern and will actually work on any Jeep CJ 1946-1986.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
(10/21/2012) “Firm on price!!!!! I have a lot more into this vehicle than asking, I have reciepts to show all repairs, I have manuals, some extras, poly fuel tank, new carb, battery, fuel pump. I also have 4 military tires with the rims”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(05/18/2013) “Up for sale is a 1946 Willys CJ2A. It has approx. 28,000 original miles. This truck is in very good condition considering its age. The truck runs great, get in turn the key and start it up. All of the gauges work, lights work, horn works. This truck would make a great restoration candidate, just needs a little TLC.”

J Metz forwarded this picture and article from Yahoo. This just seemed like an appropriate 4th of July photo.
I stumbled upon an article (unclear how old it is) about Bianchi Orchards in Red Bluff, CA, that included a reference to Willys Jeeps. Apparently they have several jeeps: a 1951 Willys Jeep (truck?), a restored Jeep named Guido, and two older pickups affectionately known as Happy and Big Blue (unclear if these are trucks or not).

Here’s a family photo with a Willys Overland truck:
Charles was wondering if anyone knows who supplies these radiator covers?
The yellow one runs. Neither looks like a 1956.
“I have two willy’s jeeps for sale

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $16,500
Looks real nice. The seller notes W/O only made 3 Sedan Delivery Wagons in 1951. Actually, they only made 3 4WD Sedan Delivery Wagons (see model 473 SD & VIN 451 CA1). There were other 2WD Wagons made. Since this is converted to 2WD, the novelty of the VIN seems undermined. Cool wagon though.
“16500e a 51 willys sedan delivery they only made 3 in 51 from the vin numbers it has a corvette 283 with and auto tranny 59 corvette frontend and also the rear.
The body is in nice condition its a California car any question please email me
Im asking 16,500. this is what I have into it at this time looking for a 30 pick up driver
Just replaced king pins and control arm bushings”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4200.
This militarized CJ-2A appears solid.
“I drive this jeep on weekend, top speed 50mph, high and low transfer case, 4×4, it all works, 4cyl, needs restoration or fun to drive around in the mountains or on a ranch, this thing will climb anything.”
This looked great on the outside, so I was a bit surprised to see the Ford engine on the inside. I’m sure it’s a fine engine . . . I just wasn’t expecting to see it.
“This is a military M-38 1/4 ton jeep, made in 1951 by Willys for the US Army. The M-38 was produced in the smallest numbers of the flatfender jeeps, and is highly collectible. I have owned this jeep for 16 years and have done almost every necessary repair in that period of time. When I purchased the jeep it came with a Ford 2.3 litre replacement engine instead of the original Willys L-head. I decided to keep that engine as it had better performance. The engine has been rebuilt, the transmission replaced, the front end has been rebuilt, brakes rebuilt, it has been re wired (12 volt), has new wheels, new gauges installed, a complete Beachwood Canvas enclosure with side curtains and doors, the correct military radio (not hooked up) with whip antennae, rifle mount on dash, pioneer tools on the side, and many other things that make this an ideal parade vehicle. Everything works. It is a very dependable daily driver. I keep it in excellent condition. The only repair that should be done is to replace the floor pans, which have some decay. This jeep is made to look original. However, the Ford engine and the ramsey electric winch on the front are not original. If the buyer is interested, I have a spare Willys L-head engine that has not been rebuilt that can go with the jeep.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500.
This is still a project.
“Willys jeep with freshly rebuilt motor. Locker rear axle, soft top, pretty clean and body straight. Over drive, low gears, power steering, winch, 33 Inch tires with spare and chrome rims, needs the head gasket replaced because the machine shop gave me the wrong one. I just need to pick it up and put it on.”
