About eWillys
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.
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 .
On July 30, 1953, newspapers across the country ran full-page or nearly-full-page ads announcing the combination of Kaiser Frazer and Willys-Overland into Kaiser-Willys. Maury spotted an actual ad, though not full-page, from the Minnesota Morning Tribune that is for sale on eBay: View all the information on eBay
Here’s an example of a full-page ad below that was published in the Philadelphia Inquirer:
“Several old Jeep Willys in various states of poor condition
CJ-2A has decent metal but is a project. Has rear PTO. Engine is free, oil in block. Gear box shifters move freely but transmission shifter does not. Tub needs work but is salvageable. Has original Willys seat, can sell seperate.
CJ-3A has Arctic Top, driver door is off but I have it. Engine is free, oil in block, fluid in radiator. Tub is shot.
One other rolling chassis with engine, also a CJ-3A I believe. There is another CJ-3a with front hood and sheet metal. Has engine but manifold is gone, open to weather likely no good.
Have at least one each Dana 25, 41 and 44 axles, with driveshafts attached that do spin. Three transmissions, two have gear box shifters that slide, gear shifters are seized.
Other miscellaneous parts.
$3000 or best offer for the whole lot. Willing to sell items or Willys separately. I can help load on your trailer with my tractor.”
“Selling my 1948 Willys Jeep CJ2A. All stock with brand new tires, freshly powdercoated rims and a powdercoated roll bar. Bikini top. Runs and drives but needs a little time put into it. Took a long time to get all the title and everything worked out and lost love for it. Very minimal rust.
Title is finally clean and in my name. Plates in storage at Kapolei branch. Pretty sure all it needs to get safety is the fluids topped up, the rear light rewired and the fuel gauge installed.”
“1943
Ford
Willys
$5000
Rebuilt motor installed keen set or hili coil needed front Sparkplugs stripped, surface rust two holes at the driver and passenger foot have a second motor broken on the pallet next to it”
“Here is your chance to own a piece of history. As they say, They don’t make them like this any more. 225 Buick v-6, t-14a transmission, Dana 18 transfer case and a Warn Overdrive swapped in from a late 60’s CJ-5.
The engine is healthy and has a rebuilt Holley 2280 carb with no choke, new intake manifold gaskets, new t-stat and new electronic ignition and coil, the trans and transfer case got new bearings 2 years ago. New coolant gauge installed last week.
A Dana 44 with open differential pushes the rear and an Dana 25 with new axles, Spicer I-joints, and new bearings and seals 2 years ago on the knuckles. New blinker switch, tail lights, and wiring this summer.
A full roll cage keeps you safe and I do have a full soft top and doors to go with it. A Warn 8274 winch is up front to pull your buddies out. Nearly new 33×12.5×15 mud terrain tires. This is not a rust bucket nor a near mint Jeep. It was my daily driver until 2 yrs ago. has sat way too much since then so time to sell.”
“Our jeep looks original but has had everything rebuilt and or new…. engine, transmission, brakes, steering, fuel system, tires. She purs like a kitten…. starts first turn and drives great”
“19xx willys jeep . Runs and has title. With so many Willys experts messaging me about year and model, it is a 70+\~ year old jeep. Need brake lines. Has rust but not terrible. Has hard top and hard doors. Only reply to offers, will delete all others. If post is up it’s available”
“WW2 military jeep. Never sectioned or wrecked. Very minor / easily repairable rust on side panel seams (see in pics). Needs hood repaired and original style windshield. Engine is the F head from a latter willys. Original hood will fit without the hole.
We purchased it in Barstow Ca. from the original purchaser in 1997. He used it on his farm and had purchased it from Fort Irwin in 1966.
Fuel system was gone through last year. All other systems are up to date and ready to drive. That is except the brake master seems to be low on fluid. Other than that, she runs and drive great.
Just don’t need or drive it enough to justify keeping it. Besides. My new shoulder doesn’t like either steering it or working on vehicles anymore.”
