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 .
Perhaps this just needs to be better photographed.

(11/03/2010) This sports a fiberglass body and an unusual (probably fiberglass) hood. I’m not sure what the axles are from.

(09/03/2010) The large dashboard speedometer and the cutdown entrances for driver and passenger suggest to me this is a DJ-3A body. Also, the windshield looks like the front portion of a DJ Hardtop. (see what it is supposed to look like on the CJ-3B).
“Custom Jeep Willys. 10,500 OBO gets this awsome jeep. New 3 spd T-90 Transmission and Dana Transfer Case, Tilt wheel, Power Steering , 2.3 Ltr Engine. Too much to list. Must see. Serious enquiries only please.”
A reader named Ron wrote me the other day. He spotted a great deal on a restorable truck at a great price and now has a website with pics of the early work (I’ve included a couple pics below). Click on the photogallery to see all the pics. Ron already has a 1971 CJ-5 and his son a 84 CJ-8; you can see pics of those vehicles in the photogallery as well. Congrats on the find and good luck with the rebuild!
Ron writes, “We are in the middle of the off frame restoration of the 61 Willys. It was purchased new in 61 by a lady with a farm in Connecticut. She ordered it with a snow plow and a hydraulic dump bed. It only has 22,000 miles. I bought it from her grandson.”
Here’s the truck before restoration. It looks like a good starting point.
Here’s a look at how the rear of the dump bed frame looks.
“I have an old willys jeep that was going to be a project for the hunting lease that never got started. So with to many projects and not enough time it has to go. I do not have the tittle for it the motor and trans where gone when I got it. Body is very rusty started to remove front clip to install and engine but never finished. Green grille was purchased to replace the yellow one. Axles are original and frame looks solid.”
The best parts might be those aluminum slot rims and tires.
“1950 Willys Overland 2dr station wagon 2 wheel drive.no drive train , needs attention around rear door, floor in front , metal fabrication work. “sold as is ” OBO call my cell phone # 419-569-0973 Thanks for looking !”
“Maroon 1946 or so CJ-2a rolling vehicle. Comes with F-head motor, not a flathead, and f-head 134 four cylinder. I have the original trans and trans-case installed, with original axles. It has a windshield frame, no glass. There are two seats in reasonably good shape in the jeep. Lots and lots of misc. spare parts- clutch, brake, generators, oil filters, etc. I have a t-90 transmission also available if you want it. The tires are new firestone radial mud and snow-oldie style, which would really look right on a stock rebuild of a jeep or willys wagon. The chrome wheels are not what I would have on a jeep, but the tire/wheel comb is holding air without leaks for a year now. The two front fenders are in need of some patch/repair work, but are repairable. The whole body has been smoothed over with bondo. The maroon hood is complete, I have another hood which was skinned over with sheet aluminum and has a hole in the top for f-head conversion or tall v-8 air cleaner. Second pile of parts is a wrangler chassis-all boxed- with a cj-5 rear tub only. It has a GM 4.3 marine engine mounted in place. Asking 200 for this green pile.There is NO paperwork on these piles of parts, just a handwritten bill of sale from me. Calls ONLY @ 530-906-1797 ask for Mark. Thanks.”
