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 .
“This was a project, totally rebuilt by my husband. Sadly he doesnt drive it anymore and it really deserves more dignity than sitting in the driveway. It will run, needs one part replaced (I believe an oil filter but my husband can give you ALL specs on this gem). All work done by my husband, who is a mechanic by trade.
If interested in more information about the jeep, respond to this post and he will get back with you. This jeep is located in Alexandria, Va.”
“Has been converted to a Buick nailhead 425 engine. Warn overdrive, koening power takeoff winch. Vehicle has been in storage for many years. Runs but needs some engine work. Good rubber, good body, good interior. Solid cab with no rust, but bed has rusted areas.”

Isn’t the front bumper mounted upside down? Not that it is a big deal, but just wondering.
“This 1946 jeep has to be seen to be appreciated. It has had everything replaced from wiring to brake lines. The emergency brake has been completely rebuilt and has the original 134 engine that has also been rebuilt. All new gauges, fuel tank ,fuellines, lights, tires, and rhino lined under and inside. It also has a roll bar. The upholestry needs to be replaced but I have a place in Texas that does the original front and rear. You really must see this to appreciate. ”

Here’s another CJ-5 that’s got the Jeepster Commando grille.
“1957 Willys CJ Jeep. Oldy but goody. Original 4 cyl engine -runs good. Electric fuel pump. 12v alternator. May need a starter and a clutch before long. I have replaced the old split rims and put on radial tires. Also have replaced original lock outs with new Warn lock-outs. Use it as it is or would make a great project to restore or use for parts. Phone 308 three four 8 twenty-two 0 5.”
“1946 Willys Jeep CJ-2A. Runs great. Body rebuilt by the Sears Oil Company in Rome, New York using heavy gauge steel. Plow included and the all brakes work. It has been converted to 12 volt system. This Jeep was used by Rome Memorial Hospital in the 2012 Honor American Day Parade that is why is it painted on Military colors. I am asking $2000.00 and at that price I am breaking even on what I have into it so the price is firm.”
Yes, the readers of “Finding Virginia” now span from the Northern reaches of Norway, thanks to Even, and to the Southern region of South Africa, thanks to Claus. There are even a few books at points in between the two!
Even wrote to tell me he was sharing his copy of my book with a friend of his named Reider Haugen. He added, “Reidar is among many Jeepers in Norway that keep himself updated with Ewillys every day He is also one of the members of Flatfender Fellows here in Norway. I brought my sample of “Finding Virginia” for him to have a look as you see from the picture.
Reidar is almost done with his very nice Willys Utility Delivery with a GM engine and some Scout parts underneath. This is going to be a nice daily driver next to his Willys Pickup Truck sporting a Volvo engine. Remember we are close to the Swedes . . .
In the middle you can see my Jeep Cj-7 Golden Eagle that I have owned for excactly 24 years today.
Now you know how far your book has spread around the world! We both wanted to thank you for the best webpage ever for us Jeep-enthusiasts”
