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 $8500
It looks like this jeep has had some interesting upgrades. I’ve seen a few other jeeps with the Ford 9 inch rear, but am not clear what the advantages of that are.
“Willys CJ2A Low Hood Flat Fender Jeep. Engine is a fuel injected 4.3 liter Chevy V6. Manual transmission, newly rebuilt transfer case, Ford 9 inch rear, winch. Asking $8500 or best offer. In Yakima, WA.”
A reader wrote to me asking for some input regarding some replacement electric windshield wipers. I couldn’t answer his question and, in fact, I’ll have the same problem once I install my electric wipers. Here’s what he wrote:
” I just bought the electric wiper conversion kit from Omix-ada, but the instructions are limited to the wiring diagram. As you can see from the picture, the shaft length would seem to cause a problem in a direct exchange. I have thought of cutting down the shafts(inner and outer) but wonder if I’m missing something easier. I have Googled the web to see if any one has discussed the conversion, so far no luck. I wonder if you or any of your readers has used these. Any help or comments would be appreciated. Thanks Phil”
So, if anyone has any ideas, we’d both appreciate it!
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500
“1945 Willys Jeep- It has a 4 cylinder engine which turns over, but it has an electrical problem somewhere so it is not starting. It has a rebuilt starter. It also has a tow bar, a roll bar, and dualmatic locking hubs. Needs brake job. I have the pink slip and it’s registered as a non-op. We have too many projects and need to sell this one.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1700.
I suspect underneath that diamond plating (I think it is diamond plating) is some wear & tear or rust. Otherwise, it’s a running CJ-3B that looks pretty good for only $1700.
“62 willys V6 3 sd alot of extras trans and case new shocks rancho lift.
This may be a pretty good deal if the bodies are in reasonable shape.
“1947 Willy’s and 1948 Willy’s. Both are complete the 47 has been inside for over 15 years and the 48 has been inside for over 12 years. Both should run with some tender loving care. The 47 has not been started or ran in over 2 years. The 48 has not ran since purchased over 12 years ago. Previous owner used it frequently and I purchased it for a project. Have aluminum hard top and soft top, too. Buy the whole works for $2500.00 You won’t be disappointed.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3600
What jeep isn’t complete without a CD player. Some interesting custom doors.
“231 Buick V6 electronic ignition. 33×12.50×15 tires on 10×15 rockcrawler wheels w/2.5″bs. Soft top from later jeep(doors need to be retrofitted). Steel half doors. CD player.”
This seller would like to trade his flattie for a wrangler. He’ll take cash too; the title says $11,000, but the ad says $8,000 – $10,000.
“Would like to trade my Willys & some cash for a quality, late model Wrangler with A/C, Auto, 6 cyl – Clean no junk please. My jeep is worth 8K – 10K”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was No Price

UPDATE: The winning bidder came out of nowhere and overbid the previous bidder by $1250 in the last 8 seconds, raising the winning bid to $4500.
Slat grilles are rare enough to make this worth looking at, but it’s certainly beat up a bit.
” I have a 1941-1942 Willys slat grill jeep for sale. It is in decent shape, I got it to run using a small can of gas going directly to the carb. The jeep has been sitting for some time and I didn’t want to trust the old gas tank. This was used as a hunting jeep. The previous owner who had it for 40+ years modified the back by cutting the rear panel at the seams, welding them to the sides and then adding a replacement rear panel…”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.
Note the Seattle Rump Bumper Jeep Club sticker on the side.
“Selling our 1949 Willy Jeepster. It’s a project car, it was given to us and we really don’t know much about it. We don’t have the time or money to make it a driveable vehicle. It has been garaged for the last three years. Four wheel drive. It is a convertible, there is hardware for the soft top. There is an extra hood that is in better condition than the one currently on it. The tires are practically brand new”
