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 $2000.
This looks good for the price.
“I have a 1948 Cj2A willys jeep for sale
, 4 cylinders, 4×4, power steering, new alternator, new tail-lights, and it runs (4 extra ORIGINAL rims, and an extra ORIGINAL seat on the side, the extra rims and seat comes with it too) NO ROLL-BARS (sorry) SERIOUS BUYERS ONLY, NEEDED OUT BY THE END OF THE WEEK!!!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2100.
This includes an overdrive. I’m surprised this didn’t sell for $2500.
“I listed this Jeep a number of weeks ago for $2500, a very reasonable price, I thought. Several people looked at it but it didn’t sell. I have too many cars and even too many Jeeps. I need to find a new home for this post WWII Jeep. It has original four cylinder motor that was rebuilt at some point, new tires, an after market overdrive. ( previous owner used it as daily driver). the engine driven winch has a piece of metal broken off of it so doesn’t work. There had been quite a lot of rust on it. This was repaired with 18 gauge steel welded in. It has new paint. This Jeep will make a fun and inexpensive (compared to a all terrain vehicle) toy or a good working vehicle. I think the carb may need to be replaced or rebuilt because I have to keep choke out or it stalls”
This looks pretty good for the price based on this picture.

Well, it turns out that the name “Malt” actually refers to four specific jeeps: Malt 1, 2, 3 & 4. According to m201’s website:
Jeeps re-manufactured from WW2 parts at La Maltournée are often referred to as ‘Malt jeeps’. However, the term more correctly applies to four specially prepared jeeps, Malt 1, 2, 3 & 4. These were used at shows where they would be driven into the arena by a team of four men who proceeded to dismantle the jeep. The parts were then passed through a small opening before being reassembled on the other side and finally driven back out of the arena – all in less than ten minutes! Various special modifications made this possible, e.g. the bodywork being divided into two parts.”
I searched and searched, but could only find one picture of a “Malt” Jeep, which is at the m201 site. Note there appears to be a seam in the body at the rear wheel well so it can be disassembled (SEE PIC UPPER LEFT). The bigger question is, what happened to those special jeeps?
I suppose it is similar to competitions like this back in 2009: http://www.ewillys.com/?p=39373
Or the more widely seen parade jeep that is quickly disassembled and re-assembled.
Or like this competition captured in Olyslager Organization’s book “The Jeep“.
