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 .
The front of this tilts down a bit too much, but otherwise this looks nice.
“Completely rebuilt and mostly original with a few added extras. Not a single bolt unturned. Bead blasted every part and painted with industrial epoxy paint. All bearings replaced, engine (flathead 4cylinder) completely rebuilt, completely rebuilt radiator rodded out, front and rear differentials rebuilt, transmission and transfer case rebuilt. EXTRA CLEAN JEEP!!! Dont want to sell but I have to due to the economy. You WILL NOT find another like this not even brand new. I personally did all of the work on this jeep and I completed all work to a perfection.”
This is supposed to be restored, but the driver’s side fender looks a little odd to me.
“RARE 6 CYLINDER ! THIS COULD BE YOURS ! Here is a restored 1949 Willys Overland Jeepster Convertible. It is 2 wheel drive, has a newer top and custom cover for when the top is down.

“This is a very neat truck. The first year for the Willys jeep truck production was 1947, This truck was the 972 willys truck ever built out of only appx 2600 .. Its a 2 T model. 2 wd. With the rare Column shift transmission. Flat head 4cyl motor. It is in remarkable condition for its age. These are prone to rust and this one is very solid !!!
I purchased this truck at the Iola vintage car show. My son and I have taken it to some shows, driven it around town and had fun with it. Now we want to buy a muscle car . These trucks as well as any old car are prone to rust, What impressed me the most about this truck was how solid the body was. This willys has never had the floors patched !!! Even the nicest old cars ive seen have had the front floors patched. This jeep has the orig floors. very nice body mounts underneath. orig Willys rocker panels, Nice door bottoms. Orig steel front and rear fenders. No rust in bed floor. The only body damage is on the tailgate,which is dented in the middle. They do sell new ones. I dont know how old the paint job is. Not a show job, but shines nice. Has some scratchs here and there. Wheels have been repainted, Tires are old, It think the spare is the orig 1947 tire !!! The interior has a new headliner. Orig cover on the upper seat back, and recovered lower seat, Orig steering wheel, The wipers dont work. Doors open and shut great. Lights all work great”
UPDATE: Price changed to $4000. Kudos to the seller for pointing out important issues.

Recently, Egon, from Lichtenstein, and I had been having a conversation about a Jeep project he’s trying to determine how to tackle. Once again, the google online translation software has been effective enough to allow a conversation to occur.
Egon recently sent me some photos of his projects. He’s done some very nice restorations. Danke Egon!
And here are a couple of great images of his Russian UAZ 469, which he says he took on a successful Elk hunting expedition in the Kirov region of Russia. It sports a 2500 cc engine and has a max speed of 75KM/H
“1948 Willys Jeep runs and drives great, Original 4 cyl motor and running gear, Upgraded steering, Upgraded brakes, Off frame resto a few years ago, Rear seat, Roll bar and Bikini top, Tow bar, Fun little jeep.”
(07/08/09) Here’s one for you Pittsburgh Steelers Fans!
“Very cool driver>>>>all original drive train and still runs like new. This is a good project or keep as is and use as a slow driver. No speed demon here as this was designed as a work horse with top speed around 50 mph. This is a good 20 footer and is a lot of fun. Take to Sand Lake and you can drive to town as this is what we used it for. Give me a call and we can make a deal as I am out of room. John @ 360 600-8213. Will deliver locally. It also comes with tow bar and you can Rat Rod it or make a cool Hot Rod too!”
“1947 Willys CJ2A. It needs work. I bought it about 3 years ago and just do not have the time or the money to restore it. It comes with a windshield but it is not original and it has a crack. It did work 2 and a half years ago but that was the last time I messed with it. It is not a military jeep. I have the title in my possession. $1000 or best offer.”
