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 .
(01/26/2012) “*1942 FORD GPW* Too much to list: Fully restored from the ground up. Ford Flathead engine completely rebuilt and machined with only 132 miles on it. 12 volt electrical system. All new canvas (beach wood). The Axles have been rebuilt, the tranny and transfer case have been resealed. Complete steering system has all been rebuilt. New reproduction Ford radiator. New paint, tires, braking system, hoses, wires, etc. You name it, it’s been replaced with new Ford parts and ready to go. Allot of detail and time went into finding new “F” (Ford) marked parts, all the way to the bolt heads and tires for this restoration.”
I was looking up some PTO parts when I landed on the Jolly Jeepers website. According to their website, the Jolly Jeepers is Oregon State’s oldest jeep club, having been founded in 1962. Two of the jeeps owned by members are custom 6x6s. You can see more 6x6s here.
Coincidently, just before publishing this post, Blaine happened to send me pictures he took of one of these 6x6s at the Orphan Car Show hosted by the Studebaker Drivers Club in Oregon City, Oregon, this past Sunday. I’ve seen “Gator” listed both as a DJ-6 and a CJ-6, so I’m not entirely sure what the base platform was.
This just cracked me up. This may or may not have willys parts.
“This is a homemade truck with a early Willys 30s front axel and willy Flat head 4 cyl motor that runs great..Was told it was use in a saw mill down south.. This thing has 2 transmissions a 3 speed backed to a 4 speed something very mind boggeling…The truck will drive and stop.. Use for fun or take to shows as it gets alot of attention..
Does not have a title and can possibly delivery…… PS will need a battery”
“An older Hobart 250 amp welding generator driven by the industrial version of the Willys 4-134 flathead engine used in the CJ-2a Jeep and the MB. Brush-type generator. Electrical side was working last time I ran it 5 years ago, but the engine uses oil badly and needs and overhaul. Parts are readily available but I have too many projects. See photos. Engine is complete with generator, carb, starter, fuel pump, and should run with minimal effort. The electrical side has the main DC welding output and also a 120v dc convenience outlet for a grinder or light. See the gray machine in the photos. Cables not included in sale. $250 as is where is or make offer. Loading and delivery available at reasonable rates.
Also for sale is the green 400 amp welder. This is driven by an electric motor. Machine dates from roughly the 1950s and works well but does require 3 phase A/C or a converter box. I ran it on a converter which works fine as long as you don’t run it at full output. $200 as is where is or make offer. Loading and delivery available at reasonable rates.”
I’m not sure what’s wrong, but it looks very solid. I think those are the same fiberglass seats I have.
“Must sell this 1948 Willys CJ-3A, $2000 OBO, Body/Frame in great shape, roll cage, 289 Ford V8, headers. Great project flat-fender. No reasonable offer refused.”
The seller will take $500 off for proof of being a veteran. Looks like a good price.
“I have a complete M38A1 Willys Army jeep from 1954, it is complete! With the original data plates and all the parts are there including top bows and seats, Has new military canvas driver seat as well as the rear bottom seat cushion. I can finish the cnavas job on the other seats if you so desire it. I have spent the better part of 16 months bringing this old Army veteran jeep back to its military glory. It has all the hard to find accessories and attachments. All Five tires are original military tires, as are the rims. I just installed a rebuilt T-90 transmission this year, a complete new old stock exhaust system. This jeep needs some paint and your markings and you are ready for parades, vfw functions or just to jeep around with. I have a box of extra parts that will come with it. Currently the jeep is in 12 volt, I have all the parts to convert over to a complete dual battery 24 volt system. This is the most complete M38A1 offered. Has all the original lifting shackles and front bumper that has not been molested or cut. New ties rods installed, new steering bellcrank, two new front brake cylinders. The fuel tank is original and has already been gone through and restored so you will not have to worry about a fuel tank leaking. Comes with two fuel cans (5 gallon military one is dated 1977 the other is new old stock from 1955) Also comes with two gallons of the correct semi-gloss paint you will need to finish the restoration. If you have any questions call me at 580 six four seven 00 four five. She stops drives and runs. I have put alot of work into this old work horse. But the wife says I can only have one jeep. So now is your chance!
I also have two original manuals for this jeep that come with it as well.
If you are a korean war veteran or veteran period, with proof, I will take $500 off the asking price. And last but not least, I will deliver this jeep to within 100 miles of zip code (73543/Geronimo, OK)”
