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 $5500.
This appears to be in reasonable shape.

My kids and I were visiting my Aunt in Seattle yesterday where she owns a houseboat (in this case, defined as literally a house built on floating logs or concrete blocks with trapped air) on Lake Union in Seattle. My son wanted to go rowing, so we climbed into a row boat and checked out some of the local scenery. We hadn’t gone more than two docks of boats when I spotted this boat named JEEP tied up to a local houseboat. How could I resist taking a picture of it?
For those movie fans who liked Sleepless in Seattle, it is a couple houseboats to the left of this picture (it is not pictured).
UPDATE: As I wrote to Dan, I spaced and forgot to add links to the rebuild of Dan’s Grandfather’s jeep. We’ve been following the rebuild here and here. Too much playing with my kids, fixing my mom’s computer, pulling stumps out for dad and the dave-do list is growing … I think you get the picture.
Dan shared this story with us hoping to encourage other readers to share those oddball stories involving jeeps. That made me realize I still have a few to share, so I’ll write up a couple and share them as well. Thanks for sharing Dan!
“One day my grandfather decided to transport his two horses in a single axle trailer behind his Jeep. While going down the road he noticed that something was wrong. The engine rpm was increasing, but he was slowing down.
After pulling onto the side of the road and looking things over, he noticed that the horses had moved as far back in the trailer as possible and that was lifting the rear tires off the ground.
He thought about it a moment and, deciding he was already half way there, he put the jeep in 4wd and finished off the trip.
When he was done he swore he would never do that again.”
If you have a story to share, please send it to me (d@ewillys.com) and I’ll likely post it.
Based on the header in the pic, I’m guessing this is running a buick V6.

“1951 or 1952 (unsure) Jeep Willys. Not much rust, runs. Good deer lease ride”
Here’s a parts jeep out of Richford that has seen better days.
“Old Willys Millitary Jeep………….. Rough Shape……………. NO TITLE………………
What you are buying is a parts vehicle. The axles are free turning, the transmission and transfercase are all right. The motor is complete, but has set up since comming here. The body is rough, So what you are buying is the running gear. 30 years ago the hedge rows and back lots were full of these old jeeps ……. Find one today….. The Transmission Alone….. Would cost what I’m asking for the whole unit. (607) 539-6899”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $12,000
This looks nice enough, though the front springs seem to be sagging a bit.
“immaculate 1950 willys cj-3a jeep. mostly stock few parts added foor comfort and looks. around 800 miles on ground up rebuild. truly is gorgeous, i need it gone asap so $11,999 or an offer i cant refuse will take it home.. also interested in partial trade for some kinda 4 wheel drive truck or suv.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This GPW is for sale by Matt at Edmund Angelus Automotive (view some of his work here). Matt has done some fabulous flattie rebuilds.
“Item up! A ’44 Gpw. This is an ALL NUMBERS MATCHING unit!!! This unit also has less than 26-k original miles and under the hood it is very much in tact. If you are a PUREST, or not,k and looking for a GPW to restore, it does not get much better than this. Believe it or not, i am having a bit of separation anxiety about selling this one. This one is my baby, the one i spent Two Years trying to buy from the previous owner. You Know the type, Hords of Jeep parts, yet you have to approach them with a Lunar Lunatic Shemelment on Just so you appear to be from their same dimension. The only problem is returning to the real world with the part or said jeep. The motor does run! It will move under its own power. The cons are as follows….”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This has some interesting features. The wide rimmed fiberglass body with no tailgate is unusual. I’ve only seen the wide rimmed fiberglass bodys with tailgates. The exhaust feature is something I haven’t seen either. It appears to allow the drive to automatically switch between a direct header versus a muffler. My concern with this jeep is the roll cage attached to the rear wheel wells instead of the frame.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2400.
Here’s what might be a great price on a CJ-2A with an Overdrive. It isn’t running, but maybe it wont’ take much to make it run.
“1948 willys cj 3 super clean no rust complete with extra flathead 4, hood wheels, warn winch and overdrive, new seats, soft top, not running.”
