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 $400.
This looks like a great price and a fun restoration. It would be useful to see just how this was stretched. This could be a rare CJ-2L. This it the 5th one I have heard about or seen in the Pacific Northwest. You can see other stretched jeeps here. This looks like a good price. This almost looks like an old lefty, too.
“It’s all there but will need complete resto.Was stretched by a previous owner.Wheel studs are broken on front axle,so will not hold wheels. No title.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $200.
Here’s an unusual CJ-5 body.
“Jeep CJ-5 body, Stretched 1 foot in the door. Floor and sides armored. Willy’s tail gate. Only $200 Or Best Offer.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $1500.
(07/15/2010) The seller doesn’t mention that this body has been stretched. I wonder if those are actually chrome headers rather than stainless headers.
“For Sale. 1948 Willys CJ2 with PTO. •1966 Buick 225 V6 – Runs good. •Stainless steel headers & exhaust system. •Oversize brakes. •Lock out hubs. •New master & clutch slave cylinder. •Valid clear title. •Missing data plate. •Needs to be rewired + minor mechanical.

I can’t remember where I ran across this photo, but I found it on my desktop waiting it’s turn to be shared with readers. I thought it was a great example of a stretched mb/gpw. I haven’t ordered the book yet, but you can find the book at Amazon here for $34.16.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5995.
Here’s an unusually stretched CJ-2A.

This was bought. Interestingly enough, it’s registered as a CJ-2L. You can learn more about it here.

1946 Willys Jeep stretch ….$1850.00 o.b.o. No emails please….Come check it out and make an offer!”
UPDATE: Was listed at $10k
It was stretched fairly nicely in the back compared with the patch between the hood and grille in the front.
“This custom 58 Willy is powered by 350 4BBL Chevy Motors, Turbo 400 automatic transmission, Chevy 1/2 ton front and rear axles, rancho schocks custom made leaf springs, new break system, new steering system, heavy duty full cage roll bar, Mickey Thompson 35×12.5 tires. Plus a box of new stuff that is ready to be installed. $10,000 or OBO!! This is truly a one of a kind!! A must see!!! ”
I’d like to take a closer look at this one. I suspect this might be an ambulance or troop carrier of some kind.
“1948 willys jeep with a Ford bronco v6 engine. Was running and being used when an axle broke. Has been parked since, about 10 years. Comes with lots of extras including tranfer cases, transmissions, a hard and a soft top, blade hardware and odds and ends.”
” This is an incredible find! 1948 Jeep Willy “hard-shell” ambulance. Includes siren and light. This is the perfect restoration project for the Willy/Jeep collector or the person who must have that incredibly “head-turning” must-have collector vehicle.”
