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 .
This looks pretty good.

“1950 Jeep Willys. This Jeep is an excellent off-road and cruiser for around town. It has a Buick 225 odd-fire with a T-98 transmission and a Dana-18 transfer case. It has a set of narrowed Dana-44 axles front and rear with a ARB locker in the front and a Detroit locker in the rear, both with 4.88 gears. The rear axle has a full float conversion as well as chromoly shafts. The Jeep also has a new gas tank, so their are no rust issues. The engine has a Griffin radiator. Also new Maxxis 35×12.50R15 Bighorns with less than 500 miles on them. It has a power steering gear box that has already been tapped for Hydro-assist as well as a frame brace. The Jeep rides on “fiberflex” leaf springs that give it a really good ride quality as well as flexibility! !!!”
Here’s a highly modified M-38A1 spotted by Tommy.
“1953 WILLYS JEEP. Custom built with 350 Chevy V8 and 350 Turbo Transmission. The front end is from a later CJ model. The frame and tub look very clean and show very little wear and no rot. This vehicle has only been driven approx 2,400 miles since the engine/trans were installed and it was repainted in PPG bright red. It also has independent coilover suspension in the front, so the ride isn’t punishing. It has 20 inch chrome wheels with nice tires, a dual exhaust system, and custom guages. The previous owner also had a local Jeep fanatic shop make a custom soft top with soft doors (see pics). This Jeep turns heads and is fun to drive.”
(07/20/2009) Now that’s an unusual hood scoop! The rest of the jeep looks in great shape.
“1947, it’s 60 years old and obviously has some surface rust but in very good condition for it’s age. I have personally put a lot of time into this vehicle, last year i drove it to work in downtown bend daily for six months.

Engine is a 1950 ford Flathead V8 with a 3 speed ford transmission. Call or email available all weekend if you want to see”

There looks like some value here.
“I have a 1953 Willys CJ3B project for sale. 2 transmissions and a flathead 4 cylinder “Hurricane” motor on a stand. It currently has a Chevy 350 mounted out of an early 70’s truck. Not able to finish. Let me be clear that this is a project and cannot be driven home, you will need to bring a trailer. I do not have the title, I have a bill of sale and the plates that were on it. Asking $700 or best reasonable offer. Great restoration project or for parts. Will not separate, all needs to go together. I need this out of my garage.”
