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 $6000.
(06/03/2010) Here’s a 4×4 truck in the great state of Alaska.
“1954 Willys 4×4 Station Wagon. All original except conversion to 12-volt, and electric fuel pump. 6 cylinder L-226 Super-Hurricane engine. T-90 transmission. Warn overdrive.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7200
(07/22/2010) This is a good price for an East Coast Jeepster.
“1949 WILLYS JEEPSTER FROM ARIZONA. MOM’S WEEKEND CRUISER. ORIGINAL RUST FREE CAR. ALWAYS GARAGED. NEW PAINT, CLOTH OEM WIRING HARNESS, 8 VOLT BATTERY WITH ORIGINAL 6 VOLT SYSTEM, ALL NEW BRAKES, RECONDITIONED RADIATOR AND FUEL TANK.

I’m also hoping to publish a post in the future that describes how this family business started so we call all learn more about the company.
From the website: “Kaiser Willys Auto Supply, a family owned business for over 10 years, is dedicated to providing quality and reasonably priced vintage Willys parts and Willys Jeep parts and accessories for all 1941 to 1971 Willys and Jeep vehicles. In 2002 we built a 6,000 square foot warehouse to house more than 7,000 parts and to better serve our customers. We guarantee full customer satisfaction – our goal is to make every first-time customer a lifetime customer!”
Continuing with our museum series, Bill Maloney has captured a couple pics of this nicely restored 1943 GPW.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000. It’s an APU hood.
Brent spotted this ad. He noted that the body appears to be a CJ-3A, yet the grille looks to be a M-38 grille. So, I can’t say for sure if the foundation for this is a CJ-3A or a M-38. The bumper on this kind of looks DJ-3Aish as well.
“1952 Jeep Willy’s. Runs. Rancho 2″ lift, brand new Interco Super Swamper TSL SX tires.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $700
This might be a good price.
“Sad old Willys Jeep needs a new home! This is a major restoration project for someone. It has a clear title. I am posting this for the owners who are not Craigslist Savvy.”
This runs. Make an offer.
“runs with no brakes or gas tank 283 with saginaw sideshift 4 speed and saginaw steering text or e-mail with ??? my cell=360-219-7772 make offer need to sell trying to buy a house”

It doesn’t look too bad for the price.
“4-cyl. F-Head Hurricane engine. Engine stuck, possibly a valve. Divided windshield, curved front fenders, floor pan rusted, “black-out” lights, 2 front seats only, pinacle hitch, some rust in windshield frame, no title. Great for restoration. Call 434-309-1495 or 434-665-6393.”

This looks like a cool find.
“Looking to sell a fairly complete 1957 (?) Jeep Forward Cab truck with a wrecker on it. The engine is in it but the trans is removed. trans is in the bed of the truck. 810 691 0687”

Here’s a nice looking M-38.
“1951 Willys M-38. Nice original sheet metal was stripped to bare metal, epoxy primed and painted. New Beechwood top and seats. New Goodyear marked NDT tires. correct shovel, axe and spare fuel can. The motor was rebuilt in the depot in 1965, and not started until last year. $12,000.00 Or Best Offer / Divorce forces sale. Ryan 303-263-0641”

It’s missing the back half, but includes, among other items, the data plates and the column shift parts. SN#20499
“I have a 46′ Willys for parts or to restore, i was going to restore it and have more parts, please see pic’s. It has a low SN#20499 as it goes willys started the CJ2A line with SN#10000. I have no title but checked with DMV and as long as it has all 3 Tags as it does it can be licened. Or part it out a grill sells for $300.00 on e-bay, i dont have the time to part it out or restore it. jumped the Motor and had it running but will need to be rebilt. Extra parts: 5 Rims, 4 extra tires and wheels, 3 speed collum shift & steering box, extra hood marked willys, Gas tank, oil filter, 3 speed trany.”
I think this looks like a good, solid truck for the price.
“This is a nice old truck, not perfect by a ways and probably not a candidate for restoration to original but a good basis for a driver. The PO [Previous Owner] put an inline 6 GM engine in it but didn’t have to cut the firewall to do it, still has the T-90 transmission and Spicer 18 transfer case, Dana front (25/27?) and the Timken rear axle, 4wd works in both high and low range, no OD. As with many of these old trucks parts from one year ended up on another so the grill and gauges are not “right” for a ’49 which is the year on the title. Has aftermarket amp/water temp/oil pressure gauges in dash, stock gauges aren’t hooked up, it’s been converted to 12v.
Paint looks faded but OK not a pro job as there are a few runs/sags on the bed, not a rust bucket at all, frame is solid floors are solid. Truck runs (rough) drives/stops goes where you point it etc but will need a good going through to be a driver. I bought this 8-02-08 from a local here in Durango with big plans but ended up spending all my cash/time on my Wrangler. Every time I look at it I see Dana 60s/vortec V-8 and an exocage and I feel the truck deserves better but if that’s what you want to do with it so be it…..”
