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 $3000.
“1948 JEEP CJ-2A, PLOW, SOFT TOP, AND MANY EXTRA PARTS. GARAGE STORED WHEN NOT DRIVING OR PLOWING.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $850.
I’m not sure what’s wrong with this jeep, but it looks pretty good for only $850.
“Vintage Jeep 1951 in decent condition (rebuilt engine flathead 4-cylendar). See attached picture. $850.00 Firm. Email for any questions.”
This list of 30 images of epic failures from Jalopnik.com was funny. I’m sure we could all add a pic or two to this list.
“We’ve seen some pretty crappy DIY craftsmanship before, but these examples take the cake. What’s amazing is these DIY’ers know how to post on the internet, but not how to research.”
Here’s a couple images:
I was playing around with a new internet toy called cooliris (I was using a plug-in version for the Firefox browser) and came across this 1945 GPW spotted and photographed in Alameda, California by Jalopnik.com.
I scratched my head and stared at the hood. Do I like the diamond plating on top or not … hmmm .. I figure it’s there for a reason, as the top of the hood is likely trashed. After scratching my head at it a bit, I decided I liked it, not because it’s a work of art, but because it’s entirely practical. With a strong roll cage, a winch, and other improvements, this 4×4 looks ready for a jeeping adventure.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1300
This seems like a good price on a running M-38.
“Original L head, runs. It’s going to sit and rot with me so am selling. It’s in Grand Junction so easy to see. Yes title is good and in my name. Great Flatfender, military Korea timeframe with dana 44 rear T18 and T90. Trade for restoration work on my 1972 F-250 highboy, needs new wooden bed and various dent’s rust spots. May trade for trailer, or Jeep TJ parts, Dana 44’s, winches, bumpers”
Our eWillys Michigan bureau, lead by Brian (and staffed only by Brian), uncovered a treasure trove of images, most I haven’t seen before, of early jeep demonstrations, publicity images and more.
Brian writes, “the source is the Toledo-Lucas County Public Library and, best of all, it is free!!! Here is the Search link http://66.213.36.25/. To Link to the library image collection explanation, go here http://www.toledolibrary.org/collection/images.asp. I think one of the best sets are the Farm Jeep trials in New Hudson Michigan..Wow”
Here is some of the searches he has done: (Willys jeeps) (willys workers) (Jeep automobiles) (farm Jeep) (Willys factory) (Military).
Here’s some of the images found using the search term “jeep” — note that the term search term jeep doesn’t yield other pictures that I saw while surfing this site this morning.
I’m not sure I’d want to be in the vehicle in the pic below….
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1600.
Yeah, the body isn’t a pretty picture. But, the drive train sounds like it might have potential.
“A 1951 Willys jeep no title runs like a champ comes with 3 sets of tires and wheels all kinds of spare parts including heads axle shafts axle housings engine block… actualy 1 or 2 enginges that were stripped down the frame is straight and it is solid!! the body on the other hand has seen better days as far as i know it was last on the road in 1972 and been sitting behind a barn until a few years ago when the guy i bought it from got it running and used it to plow his driveway…the jeep came with the house he bought”
This seller thinks he’s got CJ-2A grilles, but they are really MB grilles. I count 3 grilles, plus a fender and a tailgate. Check out the ad for specific prices. These are located way up on the tip of the Olympic Peninsula.
“I have several years worth of Hot Rod, Rat Rod, Mopar, Muscle Car and Jeep parts. Please don’t ask if I have something else if it is not pictured here. This is what I am willing to part with right now. All prices are OBO, but please do not insult me. …”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
Here’s a great price on a running CJ-2A with a working snow plow. The top is rather funky.
“For Sale a used 1946 Willys-Overland Motors CJ2A Jeep with hydraulic snowplow. Runs great, solid engine and drivetrain. Needs minor exhaust work. 54,810 original miles on engine and drivetrain.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000
It’s hard to find a running CJ-6 under $2k, let alone at $1k. Of course, the ad doesn’t say it’s running, but I can always hope.”
