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 .

“Runs… / Drives…

There appears to be some minimal value.
“I have for sale 2 willys jeeps. The blue jeep is a 1952 cj3a with a “CLEAN TITLE” . It runs great and has brakes. The frame is in excellent shape and the drive train is completely operational. All this jeep needs is a new body and some wiring and it would make a great jeep. I have personally drove this jeep down the road and it drives great and seems reliable for a willys of this age. This is a second owner jeep. The red jeep is a 1948? and I have “NO TITLE” for this jeep. It has no engine but does have the transmission and transfer case. It is a parts jeep only.

Marc spotted this jeep. It has a good story.
“I’ve had this great running little jeep for several years. I’m thinking I may want to pursue a different hobby so it may be time for my Jeep to move to a new home. I purchased this from a friend of mine (WWII aircraft mechanic) that used it at Centennial Airport to pull vintage airplanes around the hanger. The reported history is it was originally purchased by the US Navy in Hawaii and used as a shore patrol or similar right after the war. Although there were many Army jeeps in the area, the Navy purchased a few right after the war directly from local dealers (sounds like a mini-stimulus program). I verified this info from a WWII Jeep forum on the web called G503.com. In any event, the story goes it was in military service for a few months but then was surplused and ended up in New Mexico. There are brass plaques attached that reference 1946 dates of service. It spent the 50s-70s or so there until it was purchased by a local, well known construction company CEO. It ended up at Centennial Airport here in Colorado and WWII veteran guys and that is where I found it. Long story short (well, kind of short), I ended up with it. I have used it to run into town, pick up kids from school, parades, and even taken it from the bottom to the top of Trail Ridge Road in Rocky Mountain National Park and even on the highest paved road in America. Although she was breathing heavy at the top, she made it without missing a beat. The bottom line is this little guy never left me stranded even during high-altitude testing! It’s been kept inside for at least the last 20 years and hasn’t seen off road use.
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $1200
It hasn’t been started in a while.
“This is a nice clean jeep—been inside for years
Mostly original except Chevy steering column and steering box—also GM alternator
Have not tried to start—-everyhting looks good—motor complete
Price is $1200.00 firm and no trades”
The body doesn’t look complete. It looks like the steps and the bow holders are missing.
“This is a complete jeep willys body has all been gone through fixing all the rust just needs touching up. Comes with clean title. Has a Chevy 4.3 that had a advance adaptor going to a jeep t14 tranny and Dana 20 transfer case. Does not run motor is loose and free. I changed the wheels to a almost new 31″ tires with chrome steel wheels. It had a BRAND NEW lift kit the axles also have perches on top and bottom so can be under or spring over axle. Any questions please call or text. 763 439 2338 No Trades”
