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 $6800.
This looks like a solid rig.
“I have a 1954 Willys Jeep! This Jeep has had the entire Chevy small block 350 rebuilt.
Brand new tires and rims. This Jeep is a hard one to find! Most of the work is done. The body is very straight and no rust!! This Jeep would make an excellent Rock crawler, Hunting machine, or an everyday driver. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was listed at $18,000.
This includes the Fording system.
“Original condition, Fording system, Tow Bar, Military Radio, M-1 rifle rack, overdrive. 98% original. More pics.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2795.
(01/10/2013) This needs brakes. It’s listed as a 1968, but the dash suggests this is a pre 1956 model.
“CJ3B I AM NOT SURE OF THE YEAR, JEEP HAS HAD A FRAME ON RESTO. THIS IS A DRIVER NOT A SHOW JEEP. MOTOR RUNS STRONG ALL GEARS WORK HIGH AND LOW.
I REPLACED MOST OF THE BAD BODY PARTS. THE TIRES HAVE NEW TUBES BUT ARE OLD. THEY WILL WORK FINE FOR OFF ROAD USE. JEEP DOES NOT HAVE BRAKES I STOPED WORKING ON IT TO BE ABLE TO SELL AT LOW PRICE. YOU WILL NEED TO TRAILER. NO TEX MESSAGES I AM TOO OLD FOR TEXING”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500
This runs most days, but does need some things fixed. The top looks in great shape,
“Looking to sell my 1973 CJ-6. Like the CJ5, but 20” inches longer for more capacity/capability. Has 304 AMC V8, runs. 3 speed on floor. Dana 44 rear. Motorcraft 2bbl Carb was rebuilt and vehicle started/ran reliably before it was put in storage 10 years ago. Steel doors and hard top in good condition for age with minimal rust. Brand new Rancho stock height leaf springs on all 4 corners. 4 corner man-power drum brakes, and power by armstrong steering. This Jeep is a survivor. The body is straight and worth repairing/repainting/restoring. No title, and i have no plans to get one, i will, however, write a bill of sale. NH title will work if you want to make this truck road legal. Make no mistake, this is a PROJECT Vehicle. I am asking $2,500 to get what i have in it, although i am willing to negotiate a little, but please, no offensive offers! they only made 50k of these from 1955 to 1975, and 95% have been scrapped or wrecked. Very few remain. The Gipper had one as his ranch jeep. Search these jeeps on the interwebs and see what people are doing to them to make them cool, capable offroaders. I also know what they are worth, both unrestored and restored. I am just out of ambition with 10 other projects looming…This could be your next project!
Needs the following: Distributor acts up, sometimes it allows the truck to run, other times it doesn’t, easy fix im sure. Transfer case stuck in 4HI. Needs miscellaneous body mounts and perhaps some hat channels (typical for these CJ’s). Needs tires and wheels, but if you are building a custom jeep, this is the least of your concern. Im sure there are other things i am forgetting.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000.
This 3B appears to have a replacement body that’s in good shape. Someone poked the steering column through, rather than under, the dash.
“1953 WILLYS HIGH HOOD JEEP. 4.3 litre chevy V-6 motor. like new rubber, close ratio 4 speed trans. runs excellent and looks great too. $ 8000 / offer may also do trades for equal value vehicles or part trade and cash differance ”
No pics provided.
“1953 Willy Jeep $3500.00…new tires, new carburetor and runs good, starts every time. Perfect hunting jeep!!! My cell number is eight three zero three eight five five seven five five…I have picture!!!”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was Make Offer.
It’s worth something, but unclear just how deep the rust is. Too bad it sat in the barn, because it looks pretty stock.
“FOR SALE A 1946 WILLYS JEEP.. BEEN SETTING IN A BARN FOR OVER 30 YRS..IT’S ROUGH BUT MOSTLY THERE FLATE HEAD MOTOR. WHEELS ARE LOCKED UP . AND NO TITLE.. BEST OFFER!!! THANKS”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
This includes an overdrive. It might be worth a look.
“Complete small block V8, overdrive, needs work been sitting for a little while. It ran when I parked it where it sits. Steering linkage needs to be fixed.”
Brian invited me over to his house to meet Brian and see the a new Barn find: A 1943 MB. They found just outside the tricities area. It’s got some hat channel issues, but otherwise is pretty solid. It’s also has an engine that Brian got running today. It’s a great find and, except for a lot of very cold wasps, will make a great stock MB. Since they live nearby, they’ve promised me a few additional adventures that include hunting for jeeps. I look forward to that.
Here are a couple photos taken by my favorite photographer (Ann of course). In front of the stock MB is Art’s recently purchase M-38, which looks and runs great. A former Navy Seabee, Art has decorated his jeep to reflect his time in the Navy. Behind that is the ‘barn find’ and then behind that is Brian’s flattie.
And here is one Brian and Art took early of their jeeps on a hill somewhere in the hills somewhere near Kennewick.
Roberto shared the following, along with his newest drawing:
“I send you one of the comics drawn for French bimontly magazine “4×4 Story Spécial Jeep”, translated to English, This is the comic published at issue 46. The subject of the comic was the employ of the jeep during the vintage of wine at France. After WW2 many army surplus vehicle were employed by civilians and of course, at the areas devoted to the well known French wines. In fact, there was at least one winery commercialised a product called “Jeep”. One video at “You Tube”:
