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 .
This New York Car show happening in July hopes to bring in military vehicles this year.
Larry wrotes, “Our little town puts on a real nice car show, vintage, hod rods, rat rods, trucks etc. This year its a 2 day event due to the fact its the tenth year anniversary of the car show. If you go to the web site you will see the great things the sponsors do with the money. This year the Ulster County Veterans purchased a home for the vets and the funds received will be donated to them. The sponsors are great people plus JEEP dealers. The sponosors asked me to get as many military vehicles as possible for the show, as a show of gratitude for the vets and there new home.”
Marc spotted this unusual bed extension. I think this is a non-newgren extender that’s been customized.
” ***I had this listed 2 weeks ago. It attracted almost 50 watchers but no bids at $400. I have nothing to compare it to. So I will let the market set the price at $200 and above.***
Extension bed or extension body for vintage Willys CJ Jeeps. During the Jeep craze following WWII, Willys and several other companies were making all sorts of Jeep accessories. One of the coolest was the Extension Body or Extend-A-Bed. Some were made “knocked down” for assembly by the owner. Others were made “welded up” and ready to bolt on. This bed extension is “welded up” and installs with only 8 bolts. I do not know who, when or where this bed extension was made. There is no maker’s tag present. The floor and sides are formed from one solid piece of heavy sheet steel turned up at the sides. It took a heavy metal brake to form this steel. The body is braced and welded. All bolt holes to mount to the jeep are present.

This ad was forwarded by Marc. The seller indicates the “Front 1946 Tag is not included in auction” (very end of description). I’m not sure what that means.
“You are bidding on a restored CJ2A, I have owned this Willys since 2003/2004. I purchased it, drove it about four months; took it apart and cleaned, painted, replaced, busted knuckles, said things I thought I would never say, etc. I finished up about four years ago and have been driving and adding things here and there. I only have put about 100-150 miles on this thing a year, I drive it to the hardware store, to get a haircut, and to work. Since I have had this Willys it has never been in the mud, rain one time (got caught out), never driven on salty winter roads here in the east (have drove in the snow in the field and woods behind the house, goes great) I really hate to sell, but it must go. Below is a list of the stuff I have done, I’m sure I have forgotten some things. I have done everything but the engine rebuild, I had it hired out. I have hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars in this Willys
This Willys runs and drives great, always starts the first time. It has been very dependable
Its not restored for a showroom with everything correct, its done to drive and use.
I have more Pics, request by contacting me. If you want a pic of something let me know I’ll take it.
Feel free to ask any questions
Here is a video link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66z0qdcHllE pulling a trailer load of brush, two-wheel drive, low range.
The body was completely stripped down (body removed from tub) / sand blasted primed with 3 coats of PPG epoxy primer, no body work has been done (there is no filler/bondo/etc. on the body just black primmer)
Original Meyers Half Cab, never painted in original primmer, has original Meyers Sicker. I uncrated this top when purchased. Shown in pics all installed (during summer months I remove the doors and rear glass section, makes something like a bikini top, keeps the sun off your neck)
Original Warn Overdrive Unit (WARN Shift Knob), Works Great – installed with the hard to find/expensive adapter so that the front PTO can be used.
Koenig Front PTO with Winch, Works great removed cable to install winch rope, just haven’t got around to it. (needs break arm, can still use without)
“Being offered is a good solid 1964 Kaiser Jeep 4X4 with an all steel body. This is a great looking and running Jeep with stunning curb appeal. The truck has a 4 Cylinder motor with a 3-Speed transmission with a floor shifter. The Jeep starts, runs, drives, and stops well. This is a very desirable year in Jeep history that will take you back to a time when life was much simpler and vehicles had style. (lots more info on eBay)”
” Nice Willys Jeep 1947 +/-

with power take-off
Rebuilt – no rust – runs and drives like a dream!!!
Road worthy and registered until May of 2014.”
“Full ground up restoration on this Jeep. Everything was rebuilt or replaced with new parts. This was built by a gentlemen and helped by a renowned military Jeep expert in Oregon. We do have some of the paperwork, receipts and photos of the restoration in progress that will go with it. It has very little mileage on it since the restoration was complete. It’s been in a few parades and car shows but that’s it. Every works great and drives nice. Over $22K was spent on the restoration project. This is a very nice WWII Jeep. $17,500/OBO”
