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 .
Has some body rust. Will need some work. No title.

“I have to many projects. It is a 1946 Willys cj2a. I pulled the engine and transmission. The motor is a 4 cylinder Chevy, I think it’s out of a mail jeep or a 1960s nova. The transmission is bad, I took it to a shop and they said it would be cheaper to buy a refurbished T90 and transfer case. The brake lights aren’t working, I checked the bulbs and they looked fine. I have the pink slip. $4000 obo 9one6 three 9 seven 3 six 55 Will trade for a Suzuki sidekick/tracker, dirt bike, or a Rokon”
UPDATE: Still Available. I am surprised this hasn’t moved by now.

(07/20/2022) Andy spotted this unusual forklift. I’d have to guess it is a modified four-wheel-drive truck?

“One of a kind 1947 jeep Willy’s forklift. 61 Ford falcon engine . Fuel line and hydraulics need replacement. Needs new tires. Serious offers only my grandpa built this himself and used it on our farm for many years .. feel free to ask questions”
TJ spotted this nice example of an early CJ-5. It looks like a good restoration candidate or get running and drive as is. The seller just wants it gone. No title, though you can get a new Oregon title here. Based on the speedometer and reversed springs, this is a mid-to-late 1955 or early 1956.

Thanks to John for sharing this one-of-a-kind low-mileage jeep: 1731 miles … just stop what you are doing and check out these pics! Sadly, no engine pics are included. This jeep will be auctioned October 14-15th. Thought it is listed as a 1952 model, the serial number puts this as a 1951 model.
Some of the implements are unused!

“Chassis No. 451GB117583
This four-wheel-drive CJ-3A Jeep was ordered in January 1951 from Wiley Brothers and Lewis Packard-Willys of West Chester, Pennsylvania, by Arthur Knorr. A producer of Milton Berle’s Texaco Star Theater and the Miss US and Miss Universe pageants, Mr. Knorr would occasionally escape to his wife Ruth Gray’s family home on Halfmoon Valley Road near State College, Pennsylvania. The Jeep was ordered to support any and all possible maintenance needs on the Pennsylvania property. Accordingly it was outfitted with all the options, including a Ramsey cable winch, both front and rear tops with side curtains, floor mats, a hood lock, a radiator cover, and a heater/defroster – but also a dump trailer, power take-offs in front and rear, a pulley drive, and a hydraulic implement lift, running attachments that included a Timken buzz saw, grass cutter, ‘bush and bog harrow’, and hydraulic 6-foot snow plow!
Later model Dualmatic-style-Free-Lock hubs. The name was originally part of the Free-Lock Hub Corporation
Ann’s longtime friend invited me to look at a jeep yesterday that they just inherited from her uncle. They were confused about the model, so hoped I could identify it.
From the front, the jeep was clearly an early M-38A1 (turned out to be a 1953), with the hinged grille and early fenders. The dash was also correct, the correct large hole fuel inlet, and it had the early M-38A1 cowl with screws. However, it also had a tail gate that didn’t appear added. The body itself was in great shape, yet the body wasn’t mounted using all the holes, in fact some holes were missing. The cowl also lacked both the “JEEP” stamps along the side of the cowl AND the passenger side indent common for M-38A1 bodies.
Thankfully, the uncle had kept receipts, one of which was an invoice for a replacement body. Aha, that’s why it did not have JEEP or WILLYs stamped anywhere.
But, more interesting to me than the jeep, was that another document they had was an original set of instructions for Free-Lock hubs (more on Free-Lock Hubs), the style that looks just like the Dualmatic hubs. This is the first time I’ve been able to document that at some point Free Lock branded hubs were made exactly the same as Dualmatic hubs.
As you can see in the two images below, we have basically the same set of instructions for both hubs, with one that is labeled Free-Lock and the other Dualmatic. The Dualmatic is dated “8-28-74”, which the Free-Lock has hand written instructions, which I believe indicates the Free-Lock hub instructions were from an earlier date.

These two pics show a few more details, including that there are two sets of screws on opposite sides of the hub.
Maury shared this pretty rare Willys-Overland watch. Base don the design, I’d guess this is from the late 1940s. The seller describes this as a “dash clock”. He does listed other models of watches that look to be “dash clocks”, but to me this looks more like a pocket watch. Anyone know more about this item?

“Up for auction is this vintage Willys automobile dash mounting clock. It is in great working condition! Wind up mechanism. I do not have the mounting bracket.
Measures 2 1/4″. Selling as shown”
I’ve never seen one of these. Is it a vintage item or was it produced more recently?

The interior could use a little work, but it sure looks sound for the price.

“This is a 67 jeep wagoneer, it’s in pretty damn good shape for its age. All original nothing has been messed with really. Super fun to drive and just a cool vehicle. It has a little bit of a cooling problem and the filler neck needs replaced for the fuel tank. Found them online for $35.”
This looks like a clean build.
