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 $7500
(11/30/09) The seller has two other old jeeps, yet can’t say what year and model this is? It looks in good condition.
“Old Willys Jeep- 4×4 WW2 body style- Runs and drives good. Currently have two old Jeeps and I need more garage space”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500.
This CJ-3B has some WOW factor to it. If it is as nice as this picture indicates, I’d say this is a good price. That sure looks like a Texaco insignia on the side. There’s likely a story that goes with this Jeep.
“For Sale: 1963 Jeep CJ3b with original drive train , has 7K original miles. Jeep runs very good and 4wd components work well. Jeep has the original Hoenig half top and doors. I have the original plow and frame, which are currently off the vehicle. Vehicle is registered in Connecticut. Serious inquiries only please”
I’d like to see some more pics. It appears in good shape, but the color is a bit blurred.
“1942 gpw military jeep in real good condition new tires new seats 4500.00”

This is a beautiful restoration / customization.
“In addition to all of that, this JEEPSTER runs like a champ. The seats are very comfortable. The Dodge Dakota V6 engine runs smoothly, burns no oil, and is free of undercarriage drips. Power steering and cruise control add to the enjoyment of driving. It is more than capable of highway speeds and climbs the Nevada mountain ranges with ease. All of the chrome trim is without blemish. There is no underside rust. There are no dents, dings, or gouges. The top and side curtains are in good condition. The tires are nearly new.
However, there are two things that need to be done if the buyer wants to put it into show condition. While the paint photographs well, it is not flawless. Close inspection reveals cracks in the finish. The Spoke wheels need to be re-chromed.
I can no longer afford to keep my Jeepster and an airplane at the same time. I love driving the Jeepster, but I put in hundreds of hours building the airplane, and it is the one I have decided to keep.”
UPDATE: This is back on eBay. I’ve added a few more pics.
(11/03/09) This looks good.
“You are bidding on a 1947 WILLYS CJ2A. Frame off rebuild 10 years ago, garaged & summer driven only since. Original except for front hubs, tires,. top and added roll bar.”

John spent this past fall and winter doing some cosmetic restoration to this great looking GPW. John says he’s keeping this GPW for a while, so please don’t send him any sales inquiries. Thanks for sharing!
See all of the images of his GPW here
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
The drain holes have been plugged, which I suspect means there’s been some work done on the passenger and driver’s side areas of the body.
“You are 1946 Willys in great condition. This truck has been completely restored and looks and runs great. It has always been garage kept. We are selling it due to lack of room. This truck needs a good home. Transmission in great condition. Own your own piece of WWII history. This truck is as is, there is no warranty. This is pick up only. Happy Bidding.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
This looks in great shape.
“

UPDATE: Price dropped to $4500. The top two pics are the newest. It appears the seller no longer has the ‘bogger’ tires.
(12/12/09) It looks nice.
“I have a 1948 jeep willys for sale it has a buick 3.2 liter v6 with the original 3 speed transmission. it has a new besttop cover along with new chrome wheels and tires have very few miles on them.

Bruce surprised me today with some pics of a Fire Jeep. He noted that after reading the section that includes Fire Jeeps, he thought I might be interested in seeing a couple pics of Art’s Jeep. After reviewing the pics, I asked him for permission to publish them. Bruce was kind enough to contact Art, who in turn has been nice enough to let me share them with you. If you haven’t seen Art’s Jeep on the CJ-3B page or at one of the Willy’s reunions, then you are in for a treat.
One of the more interesting factoids I ran across while doing a search for Art’s Jeep on the internet was a discussion on the CJ-2A Page Forum regarding Bill’s effort to include Art’s Jeep in a Calendar of Fire Vehicles. It turns out that Daimler Chrysler wants a piece of any Calendar pie for showing a Jeep Grille (specifically, a $500 guarantee and 12% royalties).
So, that got me thinking. What about Jeeps on pay websites? Could Daimler, for example, begin asking for royalties from a site like the Jeep Forum, which has paying members, on which plenty of images of a Jeep Grille exist? At this point, my opinion is they can’t, because they haven’t enforced their rights (if they even have them) to do so. But, I’m gonna research this more.
Anyway, here’s some pics of Art’s Willys. Thanks for sharing Art 🙂
This looks sharp. It looks like the dashboard was smoothly modified.
“This is a COMPLETELY restored Willys Jeep from 1946, the first year of the CJ (Civilian Jeep). It has a clean Texas title and is registered as an antique auto. Every part of this jeep has been reconditioned, refurbished or replaced. The original flat-head 4 cylinder engine has been totally rebuilt with new pistons, rings, bearings and seals. The 3-speed transmission and transfer case have both been rebuilt including new bearings. The front and rear axles have been rebuilt with new seals, bearings and shims. The front and rear bumpers are custom built with hitch receivers. All the wiring is new, with six AutoMeter gauges in the dash. The electrical system has been converted to 12 volts. This Jeep comes with a new Bestop folding soft top. There are a few more improvements from stock, such as a 12 volt alternator in place of the original 6 volt generator, and new, more comfortable seats and seat belts. This Jeep also comes with a big stack of receipts and technical documentation including reproduction factory owner’s and service manuals. Call Grady at 214 681-9420”
