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 .
Kind of a funky paint job, but otherwise sounds solid.

It looks like this was a pretty complete rebuild, though it isn’t quite 100% stock.

(06/30/2012) Here’s a nicely restored former Forest Service CJ-6.
“1974 Jeep Cj6 with 304V8
This Jeep is a barn find that I picked up when I lived in GA a few years ago. This CJ6 is a former US Forest Service vehicle so it is a rare survivor. The jeep sat in a barn for over 20 years and I repaired alot of things to get her on the road. All of the parts that I used were stock or NOS when I could get them. The only items that are not stock is the 2.5 inch lift springs and the 33×9.5 BFG All Terrains.
I have spare engine, axles, and many other parts that will go with the Jeep. This is prime canadate for someone to own a piece of history that will only go up in value.
email me with questions or for more photos”

“In the mid nineties I did a complete body off frame restoration of this M38 over a period of 4 years spending hundreds of hours. Every part was sandblasted and refurbished with NOS and new parts used where needed to restore to original.Included is a full winter enclosure with doors and side curtains.Also included are copies of the TM9-1804A, TM9-8012, ORD 9 SNL G-8012 and an original copy of TM9-1804B dated 1952, also original jack, handle, lug wrench and canvas pouch. The engine was rebuild with new rod and main bearings, valves reground, new pistons and rings, all new gaskets and seals. The transmission and transfer case were disassembled and necessary parts replaced and new seals and gaskets. Same goes for front and rear axels and drive shafts. New brake cylinders, lines, mastercylinder and shoes were installed.

The blackout light on the fender and all blackout lights are functional, new windshield glass and weatherstripping added, new welting added between body parts, new shocks front and rear.
Every effort was made to restore as original as possible. Since restoration I have only put about 20 miles on it mostly trailering to car shows. In 1996 It won the peoples choice award at the Ga MVPA rally in Helen, Ga. It has always been garaged. I have the original Tenn clear title dated 1980.

Doing some hub research today I ran across images of “Big Red“, the CJ-2A that lives in the Clackamas, Oregon, facility of Warn Industries. It’s a beautiful looking jeep that I plan to visit one of these days.
If you haven’t been to the Warn website, stop by the history page and check out the picture of the two odd jeeps taken early in Warn’s history when the shop was located in Seattle. I contacted Warn about the photos, but they couldn’t provide any additional information about the jeeps. I’ve never seen the body and frame modifications like those any where else. It looks like it turned CJ-2As into a truck.
This is actually one of two trucks. Both sold quickly.
“1955 Willys fire truck. A rare piece indeed. It was left alone in a storage unit since 1986. It has 3100 miles on it. The body and interior are really nice on it. With some mechanical work this baby will the hit of the parade! Siren and light work! Complete with hoses, ladder, ax and even the lantern. It does run and I have moved it forwards and back. And put it in 4×4. I tuned it up, changed the oil, flushed the gas tank. However, these are the things I know it needs: has no brakes, radiator, water pump, PTO universals.”
