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: Still Available
(09/17/09) This is apart, though it’s unclear to me if it is completely apart.
“Up for grabs is this 1959 Jeep CJ3B. I bought it last year with plans to restore it but realised i don’t have the knowledge, time or $$! I took it apart with plans of sand blasting and repainting, but prior to that it ran pretty good. Clean title, renewed plates. Email for more info. Make me an offer, this jeep is a rare find!”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4450.
Here’s an unusally modified CJ-2A.
“1946 CJ2A (flat-fender) HUNTING JEEP 4 WD. THE ONLY THING NOT REBUILT ON THIS JEEP IN THE LAST 5K MILES IS THE ENGINE WHICH DIDN’T NEED IT. ENGINE STARTS EASILY, RUNS SMOOTH. 90% TREAD ON 32 INCH ALL TERRAIN TIRES AND FILLED WITH SLIME. LIGHTS WORK, GAUGES WORK, (PTO WINCH ENGAGING LEVER IS BROKEN), DUXBAK CORDURA CAMO SEAT FABRIC, 2 DOG DOG BOX FOR QUAIL HUNTING WITH SEAT AND TOP STORAGE COMPARTMENT. RECIEVER HITCHES ON FRONT AND BACK BUMPERS. TOWBAR, MANUAL LOCK-OUT HUBS. 3 SPEED MANUAL TRANNY. GREAT HUNTING RIG. I DROVE THIS FOR 7 YEARS ON A HUNTING RANCH AFTER BUILDING/OVERHAULING IT WITH ABSOLUTELY NO PROBLEMS. DON’T HAVE A PLACE TO USE IT ANY MORE”
Dan just picked up this SM420 pretty cheaply, but it has a remote shifter rather than a tower shifter. Anyone have a SM420 Tower they don’t need? If so, leave a comment below and I’ll make sure Dan get’s your message.
Dan notes this tranny came from a M-561 6×6 (note inscription on serial number). Here’s a link to Olive Drab which describes them.
UPDATE: Was $2500. **SOLD**
This sports a nice looking winch. This might be a good price. I suspect the engine is a buick 215.
“1947 willys with aluminum V8, moster winch and softtop.Too much to descibe,runs nice.Call Mell for details.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $800
Here’s a great deal. This includes an overdrive and a PTO! The roll cage looks good, too. I’m wondering if this also has the hudson steering, as that steering wheel looks similar to a hudson wheel.
“I am selling a 1940’s ( not sure of the exact year) Willys w/ no title but will do a bill of sale; Would be a great project to restore!! Very solid body w/ minor surface rust, no holes, just a few pin holes here and there; Has a Buick 225 V6 which has a rod knocking; has a good T90 Transmission w/ a good Spicer 18 Transfer Case; Plus some extra parts to go w/ it like a Transmission and Transfer Case, Hard to find WARN Overdrive and PTO; Is NOT Driveable but does run/idle; If you have any more questions”
This includes an overdrive, but it’s still a project. The seller is moving.
“This jeep would make a great hunting,wheeling or restoration.has 4″rancho suspension lift,shackle lift,almost brand new 34X10.50 super swampers and wheels,warn over drive worth 6-$800.00 alone,bed lined inside tub.engine is a buick 231 oddfire v-6 runs great.Needs windsheild bolted back on, and some electrical work head lights tail lights and the roll cage needs bolted back in seats not in picture but now in jeep. moving soon must sell $2,000”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000
It doesn’t run and looks rough.
“
No Title. Was told it runs but haven’t heard it run. Needs work. Good parts vehicle or project vehicle.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500!!!
(09/20/09) This has got a wide rimmed, slanted dashboard fiberglass body. It also has the rear wheel well extended slightly.
“1948 Willys CJ 2a Jeep with a clear title. Ford 302 engine that runs great, and sounds awesome! Griffin aluminum radiator, Twin stick transfer case, New master cylinder, New headers and mufflers, Fiberglass tub (body), Fiberglass fenders, Factory metal/steel Hood (stamped Willys), Extra Fiberglass hood …”
I found this dually earlier this week, but now can’t remember where. So, if anyone happens to know, send me the link and I’ll make sure the website (or jeep owner or both) gets the credit due them.
Speaking of duallies, here’s an flashback to the 80s Drag Racing scene with an old racer courtesy of OffRoadAction.ca:
UPDATE: Was $4000. **SOLD**
It looks like there’s some rust near the driver’s side step. It appears pretty stock.
“1951 willys jeep for sale OBO.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000
“
This jeep has been in the family since around 1957. It has always been kept in a nice dry barn and only used occasionally, mostly just to drive around the property. It runs fine and I just drove it to a jeep show last week. The brakes need a little work as well as some of the light bulbs. Asking $3000 or best offer and would like to sell soon to make room in the barn for other items.”
