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 $4000.
Needs some work.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500.
A reader by the name of Brent has this solid looking CJ-5 for sale. It’s set up for some hunting with the elevated rear seat. It doesn’t have a title, but will have a bill-of-sale.
“For sale is my 1961 Willys CJ-5. Some of the improvements over the last 2 years include new tires (already slimed), installation of Warn winch, custom built high rack complete with cooler storage (cooler not included), water jug storage, removable expanded metal trash can, spare tire holder, and a tilt-up floor. The carburetor has been rebuilt, electric fuel pump installed to prime the existing mechanical pump, hard wired battery tender on the inside wheel well, pertronix ignition (replaces the need for points in the distributor).
Five years ago we did a major overhaul which included the following (all new/replaced): master cylinder, valve job, rear brake hose, radiator, radiator hoses, thermostat, fan belt, ignition switch, starter, gas tank, sending unit, fuel line, new transmission, new transfer case, new steering wheel, new seats, new glove box, new fender flares, and finished with a flat OD green paint.
F-134 engine runs and drives good. 4WD works fine. No title; will provide bill of sale.”
Could be worth a look.

“Early 1947 CJ2A for sale. Will need trailer to pickup or we can deliver for a fee within 1 hr. Mostly complete, needs carb. Transmission is not locked up like most Jeep’s you find from this era. Motor will most likely need a rebuild. Converted to 12 volt. Great candidate for restoration or pull the flathead four cylinder motor and replace with a small block. Overall solid project jeep. Will be sold with bill of sale. Jeep could be bought without the motor if you are planning to use a different motor for your trail rig”
Needs work of some kind.

“RADE FOR OLDER RANGER DUAL CONSOLE BASS BOAT This is a great running, driving, stopping, 1952 Willys CJ-3A. I do have the title and intact VIN plate that match the Jeep. I have put quite a bit of time and new parts in the Jeep. New Rancho lift with shocks. New 31×10.50 tires. Pretty firm on the price. If it doesn’t sell it’s getting 4cyl diesel. Figured I’d post before I pulled the original Willys F head.”
Seller isn’t sure if it runs or not.

“7000 obo. Make an offer, the price is high but I had to start somewhere. Probably doesn’t run and I am not going to try to start it. Nice old Jeep”
This oddity might be a fun project for someone.

Looks like this has some version of a Porter & Reed hardtop.

UPDATE: Here’s a rare example of the S&B Corp’s All-Steel ‘Jeep’ Panel Body. This Buck & Sons Tractor & Implement Company MB/GPW had a cargo-wagon-like setup added to it. The company was out of Tacoma (where I lived for four years).
