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 $200.
These appear to be some chrome headers in good shape.
“New (never installed). Ford 289 / 302 headers to jeep. May fit other applications.”
The seller has either the model or the year wrong on this jeep.
“New paint, runs great. Custom seats, new top, custom wheels worth $1200 themselves. Drives great. Nice seats that makes it a nice ride. Worth a lot more than the asking price and would cost a lot more to restore one to this conditon. This is a head turner. Looking to move and need to sell. Serious buyers only.”
This is a pretty high price for a project that still needs the engine rebuilt (among other things done). I’m kind of wondering what part of this is rack n’ pinion.
“Must sell asap due to medical reasons. CJ3B High hood jeep. This is a project car and would be really nice once finished. Dana 60 rearend, front disc brakes, rack n pinion, top loader 4 speed, boxed frame, engine needs rebuilt 69 ford 302.
Asking $3500 or Best Offer. Please call Mike (971) 404-4047 anytime”
The grille and other parts might be older, but the body looks like it is newer. Note the tailgate in the rear and the gas inlet on the driver’s side, suggesting this is more likely a CJ-2A body or later.
“World War II Era Willys Jeep, 14,000 miles, Flathead 4 cylinder engine, 4 X 4 works great, Tires in good shape, Runs Great goes about 50 miles an hour, wouldn’t take much to get it to its original condition, Chris (435)659-0292”
Happy New Year everyone (at least somewhere it’s the New Year). New Year’s day marks the official one year anniversary of eWillys.
Over the past year I’ve met lots of new friends from all around the world, written about 1400 posts, nearly finished my own jeep, and only pissed off one reader (that I know of :-)). I feel like I’ve successfully hit my goals this year: to create a website that follows the older jeep & jeep parts market so that I and others can better understand the market demographics — what’s for sale, how much they cost, and more. Along the way, I’ve tried to make it interesting, amusing and educational.
Based on the feedback I’ve received, you all seem to be enjoying the site thus far. My 14 year old son swears to me that one day he was walking down the street in downtown Salt Lake City and heard two guys talking about the eWillys website and how much they liked it, which he thought was pretty cool.
Over the next year, I hope to continue to deliver interesting information, improve the site (especially those drop down menus which stick within firefox), and expand the content in new directions.
Finally, I really really appreciate all the readers who have provided endless helpful feedback, suggestions and information. I try to keep this site updated on 24/7 basis as best as possible and sometimes I make mistakes in the process, so always feel free to drop me a line, and I’ll respond as quickly as possible.
Have a wonderful 2009 everyone!
– Dave
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
This looks good for a $1500 running jeep. I’d drop in a battery and starter before buying though.
“1948 Willys Jeep CJ2A,the Jeep will need a new starter,a battery to make it road worthy. The engine is in great shape, the tranny and the 4×4 are in great shape,the brakes system is in good shape,the jeep has new military tires size 16″,the steering system is not original and the tub will need some welding,but it is drivable as it is.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500
This seems a great price for a good looking CJ-5.
“61 willys jeep 2” lift rebuilt 225 v6 @ transmission, 8000 lb. pto winch $1500.00 “
UPDATE: These sold for $1200 on 01/06/2009.
Two jeeps for one price. The jeep pictured looks pretty stock and the body appears fairly straight.
“1948 and 1947 willys jeeps as a pair. there is enough parts to build one whole jeep. the 48 is the good one with a reworked body in very good shape and good running gear, one engine is cracked and the other turns over good. Idont have pics of the 47 but it has a good running gear too and the body is shot. this is for 2 jeeps and one title. please call with questions any time. no shipping. as is where is phone 740 707 6422”
UPDATE: This sold for $2,025 on 01/06/2009
I think the body on this looks in very good shape. It looks like with some polish, the paint might be in pretty good shape underneath all that dust.
“1947 CJ2 Jeep 4 cylinder. 4 wheel drive, high and low transmission. Runs and drives great. Mechanics in working order. Converted to a 12 vikt. Body in good to great condition, no major rust. Under carriage/ frame in good shape. Inside is very solid, seats are nice, most of the gauges work. This Jeep is ready to drive and have fun in. But doesn’t have a battery in it currently….”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2400
