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 $2900.
This appears to have a variety of updates. It might be a good price.
“This work in progress has a 283ci crate engine, MSD electronic ignition, Bosch distributor, new tires & brakes.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500
Looks good. This was listed for $3000 in January, so I’m wondering if it was bought and is now being resold.
“Nice sound ride, clean body. Strong 327 V8, power steering, tow bar, newer Rancho suspension kit, 31/10.50×15 tires. READY 2 PLAY.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
I think DUSTY describes this accurately. It looks pretty solid underneath the rust.
“1951 Williy’s Overland 4×4 station wagon with 289 and 3 speed transmission. This vehicle has been barn stored for the last 10 years and his minimal rust and damage. The engine is complete and was running when it was put into storage. This is a great project vehicle with almost all original parts and equipment. 2,500 OBO.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800
This looks like a good price. Seller must sell this weekend.
“1953 Willys jeep Call for info first 1800 takes it home must sell this weekend.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
This might be a good price. It includes a plow.
“LAST RAN IN 1981, NEEDS GAS TANK. SOLD WITH BILL OF SALE…SAME OWNER FOR YEARS…. HAS MATCHING DOORS AND SNOWPLOW!!! RARE”
UPDATE: Was $15750 **Status Unknown**
(04/29/2010) I’m a little surprised the seller doesn’t mention this is a Slat Grille. This doesn’t have the in-dash jockey box.
“The vehicle has been restored. It is very nice, runs great. Registration and Safety just renewed. It has too many improvements to list. Located on Maui in Lahaina. I am willing to take serious offers.”
UPDATE: Still Available
(03/08/2010) This sports an unusual paint stripe.
“This is a 1942 Ford GPW that is in good running condition. The body has a minimal amount of rust and is in very good shape. If you have any questions please email me at cofc2004@gmail.com”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000
(11/18/09) The Vin number would make this produced in 1948. This looks like a nice rebuilt.
“ I am selling my CJ2A. This has been recently restored. Body was removed and repainted. Color is maroon. Black undercoat on the body to help prevent rust. Restoration did not include mechanical. Vehicle had a partial 12V conversion when I got it. It now has all new wiring. All lights work. Added turn signals and brake lights. Horn works. Starter is 12V. It uses a borg warner 6V coil; but could easily be changed to 12V coil. Jeep would be street legal if you add the windshield; the seals for the windshield are included in sale. It didn’t need the motor or drivetrain rebuilt. Although I did paint the engine and rebuild the carburator. New gauges except for speedo.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
On a trip to Bonner’s Ferry, Idaho, Dan discovered this unusual project. Underneath all the modifications is a 1943 GPW. What’s amazing to me is that, all things considered, it doesn’t look all that bad. Someone certainly cobbled together a variety of vehicles, along with a healthy supply of diamond plating to keep this vehicle on the road. No doubt it was better than sporting a soft top in cold weather.
