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 .
Listed as a 1944, it might be a CJ body on an MB chassis, but hard to tell from these pics.

“1942 Ford GPW Script Jeep chassis (non-running), parts and body (rusted).

Hard to tell the value here, but this has a few mods, including a beefy front bumper.

“Jeep Willy’s 1948 non running all is there .”
It looks like the body may have been stretched some (to fit the CJ-7 frame) and the gas-inlet hole covered over.

“52 willys project. Clean title. 87 cj7 frame. 360 engine. In pieces ran when parked.”
The body on this project appears solid. Add in the rebuilt engine and it might be worth a look.

“I got a 1969 Jeepster. It is missing the top. Other than that everything is there. I rebuilt the engine 8 months ago but haven’t had a chance to actually drive the car since I have so many so I decided to let this one go. You will have to tow the car if you decide to buy it”
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $12,500
(09/12/2020) No obvious rust.
“1948 ( title says 50, don’t know why but is a 48) 4×4 locking hubs high and low 2 and 4 wheel transfer case all work. 3 speed manual transmission fireball v6 engine. Runs great registration current. Hydraulic dump bed. Frame under bed super clean no dents or dings. Interior needs work. Needs wiring, lights not hooked up. Cool classic truck project that you can still cruise around while working on it. I have the step side panels just have them off. Was about to start painting but got another truck so letting this one go. ”
These hubs have seen some serious wear on their faces. Evidence suggests it was Husky that private labeled this hub for Allstate (more on Husky history here).
What is interesting to me is that the back side of this hub looks identical to the backside of the early Husky, Dualmatic, and Free-Lock hub, too. I don’t have enough information to compared the eternals of each of these, but I suspect that some of the Husky and Dualmatic hubs reflect evolutions (or copies) from the early Free-Lock hub.

Bottom of an early Husky hub (with more splines, but same underside design with the lock ring):
This version of the Husky hub, also appears to be identical on the backside (also private labeled with Allstate). See the rebuild of this hub here:
UPDATE: Price dropped to $10,500.
Ivan shared this rare jeep. It is a former fire jeep-wagon. It was likely part of a limited production model either from some Willys-licensee in Europe or a third party. It’s priced at 45,000 Plish Zlotych which equates to about $19,500 USD.

Tom shared this one. It is listed as a 1955 (likely a placeholder year). It lacks a title.

“Was being built by grandfather title needs to be obtained.grate starter jeep need to run ven an block numbers to get exact info.runs strong little rust.garage kept”
This looks to be a 1956 DJ-3A that has been converted to 4WD. The body looks repaired.

“Willys was not an option in the listing title. And they made me put mileage in but I really have no idea what the actual mileage is.
This is titled a 1956 CJ2a. I know it’s not a 1956 but probably much earlier. Runs well, it’s pretty clean and very fun. Has a coat of quality paint on it but not a quality paint job haha. I started tracing wires to get the lights and signals to work but ran out of time. If it doesn’t sell in the next few weeks I’ll get back to it and wire it, tune it up and the price will be changed accordingly. Runs and drives right now. $5000 firm.”
