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.
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 $17,500. It’s listed as a 1948, but it has a VEC serial number of 22189.
(08/22/2019) Looks solid.
“1948 WILLYS MILITARY JEEP Rust Free, Restored, 4- Wheel Drive, Stock components, Converted to 12 Volt Electrical, Recent Paint Complete under carriage Also, New Interior, Stock Go Devil 134/59 HP 4-CYL, Engine, 3-Speed Manual And 2-Speed Transfer Case, Recent Military Type Tires Installed. Runs Great, MUST SEE. CAR SHOW READY”
All stock components? What about the replacement body?
Not to be critical, but so many of these so called restorations with the so called “CORRECT” replacement bodies, don’t have any of the original brackets, (Side pockets) mounted on the body as the original. That’s what I don’t understand about these guys, you call yourself a restorer, spend a ton of time and money, yet neglect to spend the small amount of time to detail such as this. I don’t get it, restoration means period correct, means having some skills to restore, not just buy new from China, India, or where ever.
Look up the Jeep Guy Restorations on Facebook, now there’s a guy I admire. Located in PA, a man with skills, yet gets very little recognition for his talent. This is not a sales pitch, just the truth.
And the “1948 military jeep” but with 1946 marker lights…
I think it is a nice looking CJ. If the owner is happy with it, I am happy with it. I think it looks nice.
Very neat work; I like the color which is the same as my 3B. I also think it looks better without
the side pockets.
Mike- you nailed it for that price range details do count. Even for personal satisfaction. Also for that price I don’t expect a 2×4 in front of the rear wheel.
Stop using “HIGH GLOSS CLEAR COAT”. It looks like the finish on patent leather shoes.
