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 .
This looks solid.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This ad was forwarded by Marc. The seller indicates the “Front 1946 Tag is not included in auction” (very end of description). I’m not sure what that means.
“You are bidding on a restored CJ2A, I have owned this Willys since 2003/2004. I purchased it, drove it about four months; took it apart and cleaned, painted, replaced, busted knuckles, said things I thought I would never say, etc. I finished up about four years ago and have been driving and adding things here and there. I only have put about 100-150 miles on this thing a year, I drive it to the hardware store, to get a haircut, and to work. Since I have had this Willys it has never been in the mud, rain one time (got caught out), never driven on salty winter roads here in the east (have drove in the snow in the field and woods behind the house, goes great) I really hate to sell, but it must go. Below is a list of the stuff I have done, I’m sure I have forgotten some things. I have done everything but the engine rebuild, I had it hired out. I have hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars in this Willys
This Willys runs and drives great, always starts the first time. It has been very dependable
Its not restored for a showroom with everything correct, its done to drive and use.
I have more Pics, request by contacting me. If you want a pic of something let me know I’ll take it.
Feel free to ask any questions
Here is a video link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66z0qdcHllE pulling a trailer load of brush, two-wheel drive, low range.
The body was completely stripped down (body removed from tub) / sand blasted primed with 3 coats of PPG epoxy primer, no body work has been done (there is no filler/bondo/etc. on the body just black primmer)
Original Meyers Half Cab, never painted in original primmer, has original Meyers Sicker. I uncrated this top when purchased. Shown in pics all installed (during summer months I remove the doors and rear glass section, makes something like a bikini top, keeps the sun off your neck)
Original Warn Overdrive Unit (WARN Shift Knob), Works Great – installed with the hard to find/expensive adapter so that the front PTO can be used.
Koenig Front PTO with Winch, Works great removed cable to install winch rope, just haven’t got around to it. (needs break arm, can still use without)
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
This includes a drum pulley.

“Full ground up restoration on this Jeep. Everything was rebuilt or replaced with new parts. This was built by a gentlemen and helped by a renowned military Jeep expert in Oregon. We do have some of the paperwork, receipts and photos of the restoration in progress that will go with it. It has very little mileage on it since the restoration was complete. It’s been in a few parades and car shows but that’s it. Every works great and drives nice. Over $22K was spent on the restoration project. This is a very nice WWII Jeep. $17,500/OBO”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500.
A new paint job ought to make this jeep shine.

Here’s another nice looking restoration, but it has a GPW body (or at least tool lids).

Exceptional?

“this is a 1945 willys army jeep. intact a little ruff but no holes and original. this is the good one not the civilian one it has glove compartment rear spare tire holder rear fender boxed dash brake handle..etc. I have gotten a few quotes so I have an idea what its worth.. serious only will consider trades…”
The body appears to have a little damage on the front driver’s corner, but otherwise looks solid.
“Up for sale is this rare Jeep FC-150 truck. This vehicle I extremely rare, and a great project for anyone with creativity, and time. The amount of things that can be done to a unique car like this, are infinite. I no longer have the time to invest in this truck however. The Engine still runs strong, and the transmission, and 4×4 work surprisingly well. I registered the car last year and then non oped it when I realized I was not going to move it anytime soon, so you do not need to worry about ridiculous backed up fees. The car does need work as it is a project, but it is definitely a good start. There is significant rust, but it is a 65 year old car so that is expected. What needs attention at the moment to get it running appropriately are the brakes and a battery, but other than that there is nothing necessary to make it a movable car. Like stated the 4×4 works well also. The lights work fine as well. I will include original seats that I bought separately.”
