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 .
A big thanks to Barney Goodwin for sending me this original Meyer Snow Plow poster. I doubt there are many of these around anymore.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
This “Good Roads Machinery Corp” snow plow was mounted to a CJ-2A. I’ve’ never heard of this model.
“Good Roads Machinery Corp snow plow. Removed from a 46 CJ2A I recently purchased. Manual hydraulic pump runs plow cylinder. Complete plow and mount. $500.00 obo located in Raton, NM”
On October 28, 1954, Kaiser Willys announced the addition of The Western Duty Snow Plows to the Special Equipment line.
TJ shared this plow from a CJ-7. Seems a reasonable price.

“Came off of a CJ7, bought it to put on my CJ7, but won’t work on my Jeep due to modifications I have done to my Jeep. Everything is there aside from the controller, previous owner couldn’t find it, but they are available from Meyer. It’s loaded on my trailer and willing to deliver within reasonable distance for fair compensation.”
Update: **Sold**. Was $995
Tis plow time (at least here it is).
“This is a complete 6′ plow setup with original brackets to fit the Cj2a and will fit Cj5’s up into the sixties. It is in very nice condition. It has an original 6V Meyer electric lift pump with solid cable. The plow and rig are located 10 miles from Hershey, PA. Please email me if interested and thanks for looking”

“Hy Lo Jeep Snow Plow parts removed from a CJ3A Jeep but may fit other models. Most everything except the blade. The hydraulic cylinder would move up and down before we removed it and other than that we know very little about these.”
1. Meyer’s Plow Harwich, NH $800
“For sale is an Original dealer installed option on a 1956 Willys Jeep Cj from 1956. I have paperwork and brochures from install date. Plow is complete and will come with parts needed. The jeep only has 13,000 Original miles that it came off of.”
2. Project Plow Hamilton, MA $200
“Selling a Jeep plow and lift. Came off of a 1953 CJ3B. Needs work.”
UPDATE: This video was shared in September of 2018. An oldie, but a goodie.
I saw this video for the first time yesterday. Near the end of it there are several jeeps featured doing non-farm chores. I’ve taken a few screen shots of them and added them below. The most interesting one to me is the red one with the extended rear (pic with guys carrying the washing machine).
We’ve run across these extended rears like this on a few jeeps over the years, but this is the earliest evidence of them that I have seen. The one on the back of the red jeep looks like to me like it was professionally made, leading me to wonder if it was a purchasable product.
Ted’s got these parts for sale.

“Willys Jeep CJ2/3A VEC Farm Jeep Newgren Single Bottom Plow Front Counter Weight. Condition is “Used”.
For sale is a Willys Jeep specialized equipment combo consisting of a Newgren brand single bottom land plow and front counter weight. The Newgren brand plow was designed to be used on Willys Farm Jeeps equipped with either a Newgren , Monroe , love , or Stratton Three Point Hydraulic lift or Hitch on back of Jeep. The front weight was mounted on front of Jeep as a counter weight to any of the specialized equipment being used on rear of keep with hydraulic lift.
The front counter weight weighs 265 lbs roughly and is in great shape.
The Newgren single bottom plow is also in very good condition for its age with original Newgren serial number tag still intact. This original Willys specialized combo would be a great addition to any correct Farm Jeep restoration or working Jeep.
These items are way too heavy to be shipped so local pickup will be best, I’d be happy to store them for a reasonable time period once they are paid for
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $225.
This is a B style Scheneker Plow (you can see some brochures for this model on the lower portion of this post).
“‘46 Willys Jeep snow plow worked fine but Took it off to do my restoration.”
I bought one of this seller’s Morrison brochure. It’s in very good condition. It is unclear how many of these he has. I suspect it’s from the late 1940s, given it only features CJ-2As.

“You are buying or bidding on a rare vintage early 1950’s “The Morrison-Built Rogers Sno-Dozer For Jeeps” brochure. This was originally sold as a plow and scraper and was from the late 40’s. They were later produced by the Morrison Railway Supply Corp. Buffalo, New York. This is 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ opens twice to a 11″ x 8 1/2″. This is in excellent condition.(see pics)”
I don’t have any brochures on the Fisher.

“Fisher plow for early CJ5 metal is in good shape as well as blade has a new rebuilt pump all hydraulic lines hood pressure”
Below are there additional Meyer-related Installation, service and instruction documents. First is four-page Form No. I-318R for installation of Meyer Power Angling:
Next is Form No. 1-119R9 for installation of snow plow lifts powered in several different ways:
Our good friend Boomer plans to do some snow plowing to help out his Minnesota neighbors. Rather than plow driveways (too much shit to hit, he says) he will open up all his neighbor’s curb cuts.
He’s snagged a Western plow blade attachment, but he still needs the blade. Does anyone have suggestions what blade length he should seek? 6′ or 7′ or 8′ or something else?
Thanks!
1961 Western Snow Plow Brochure:
These there documents should help someone service their ElectroLIft units for the Meyer Snowplows. Neither has a date, but I would guess these are close to 1960.
There are two ElectroLift control types, one mechanical and one electrical, so make sure you know what type you have. This first form provides installation instructions for the mechanical type. It is Form Number 1-101. Page 2 shows only. a partial electrical diagram. I’m not sure why only the partial diagram shows.
Below are Meyer plow install instructions and parts lists for various Jeep models, including CJs, trucks, wagons, FCs, and J-series jeeps.
First up in the two-page Form No. 1-103r5 for the CJ-2A-CJ-6:
Next is four-page Form No. 1-109r6 for trucks and wagons:
The Meyer Snow Plow brochure includes a large section about the ElectroLift. Labeled form no. 3-163, the brochure is a standard paper side with a half-paper-sized section that folds out horizontally to reveal more details about the Electrolift. There is not date on this brochure, but I’d guess early 1960s.
Note that the left side of the back of this brochure is the same as the image above. It’s the right side that folds out.
These two two-page brochures from Meyer once again highlight the company’s snow plows.
This first brochure showcases the Meyer Angle Dozer and is dated July of 1962 and is form no. 3-114 (though on the backside it shows 3-114 R2, suggesting the backside may have been a 1st or 2nd revision):
This second one is an undated form no. 3-283, but given it includes a Jeepster Commando, it is likely from the late 1960s.:
These two brochures offer optional equipment for Meyer snow plows. I’ve been unable to make sense of the Meyer brochure numbers.
Form No. 3-208 is a four page brochure that highlights optional equipment for Meyer snow plows.
This center section utilizes two pages:
This is the back page:
=====================
Form No. 3-217 is a one page brochure that highlights marker kits installed atop Meyer Snow plows to make them easier to see.
Given the early Wagoneer and the (25M63) printed on the back, this may be a Meyer Snow Plow tri-fold brochure from 1963.
This is the center, 3-page foldout:
Back page:
Looks in good shape.
https://binghamton.craigslist.org/pts/d/starrucca-snow-plow-and-frame-from-62/7224712316.html
“A good condition snow plow blade and frame off of a 62 Willys
CJ jeep. All parts included. You remove from Jeep.
Extra hydraulic pump. Some spare parts.”
This brochures shows that Meyer was well established in the plow industry before the arrival of the jeep.
