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 $1200.

UPDATE: SOLD. See comments.
(10/24/2010) It’s got some rust, but drives.
“1948 Willys, 32,721 +/- on the odometer. Guy who had it before me parked it in his garage thinking he would do some body work. Sat for 12 years. I got it thinking I needed another project vehicle. Wife decided I didn’t. Dumped some gas in it earlier this summer and it fired right up. Drove OK but brakes need work. Tires are good including a spare on a matching wheel. Looks to me like everything is there with the exception of a seat-bracket and seat. The lights/trim wipers, steps, etc are in a box. Body has some rust (see pictures) but the frame and drive-train look solid and straight. I have a clear title for this jeep. With a little elbow grease this winter I think this has potential as a fun summer ride. Asking $1,100.00 but would entertain any serious offer.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8500.
The price is a bit high, but this would likely make a great restoration candidate.
“1949 Jeep Willys CJ-2A Drivin daily then garaged 6 years ago. Needs TLC. No top but otherwise vehicle is complete (rebuilt motor) and includes a extra motor. Not shown, but I do have the stock tires and rims”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1400.
The engine is out.
“1957 Willies Jeep civilian version. The body is in good condition over all although there is a small amount of rust in the front passenger fender (I’ve included a photo of it), the paint and interior are in fair to good condition and the tires have 75% of the tread left. It comes with the original Hurricane 4 engine which is currently not running because we removed the radiator to start the process of replacing the rear main seal but never got it done. It also comes with the original 3-speed manual transmission. For an additional $1,500 I’ll include a Chevy V8 383 stroker and a new turbo 350 hydro transmission with torque converter. Motor includes all accessories: carburetor, alternator, brackets and pully’s. Also take a look at my 1957 Military style Willies Jeep I have for sale as well. (It’s located in Lindon)”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
(11/24/2011) There are a couple other Willys in the background of the photos.
“Offered is a very rare Willys FC150 Foward Control Pickup. Needs restoration. Very staight and solid. Rear glass is missing. Motor apart. This will make a great project to restore or street rod.”
UPDATE: Now on Craigslist
(05/26/2010) Imagine my surprise when I looked at the last of the many images of this Jeep and learned this was a fiberglass tub! You don’t see many CJ-3B Fiberglass Tubs.
