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 .
(10/15/2012) “Restored and almost original, first year of the civilian jeeps. In great condition and well cared for. Runs great and is quite a head turner on those summer weekends. Street legal, three speed manual trans. High/Low range transfer case, 4X4. E-mail for info and pics.”
“1948 Willys Jeepster, sold as is , for restoration and or daily driver , was on storage without use for some years, bought for restoration upon impulse as I always wanted a jeepster but now I realized I still have three more projects ( 72 vette, 74 TR6 and a 1928 ford street rod) which I should complete before attempting a new project so need to make the space in the garage The jeepster has rust on doors and frame, put a new fuel pump and the engine starts and runs , will need carburator cleaning and refreshing see video on Youtube: Jeepster 1948 Ocala to hear the engine run,noticed that shifter lever got stuck and was easily released by moving the levers that go from the steering column to the transmission so some adjustment may be needed and or bushing . Jeepster is ideal for restoration and or use as driver as is a complete car with all its components, running engine, transmission, rear end , complete body, bumpers ,lights, rims , trim, side curtains and top,. front and rear seats are in good condition as well as the door panels. only visible dent I found is in the front apron behind the front bumper as you can see on photo . If want to use as driver, since car has been out of the road some years ,although it starts trasmission engages and brakes work , it will need complete mechanical inspection refreshing to assure safe use on the road to include but not limited to brakes, suspension, shocks, tires,steering components etc. therefore Jeepster will need to be trailered to its new location.”
No restored to perfectly stock condition, but looks real nice.
“4 Cyl flat head, 3 speed, Warren overdrive, all original, no rust. Very straight body with new upholstery and new military blue paint. Runs and drives good.”
It sounds like there’s a little more work to be done. Looks good.
“47′ Willy’s jeep with rare half steel cab, rims have new powder coat, new tires and tubes. This is a restoration project that includes new and used parts. Jeep is looking for a home that appreciates history and some TLC!”
“Total frame-off restoration completed in 2000, driven less than 1500 miles since then. Harvard Red (original ’46 Willys color), rebuilt transmission, differential, fuel system, etc., new clutch. Converted to 12 volt electricals. Aftermarket soft top with doors and windows. Always garaged. Runs like a top. Not a rock climber — but a great street vehicle.”
