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 .
I don’t know what the usually run.

PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY:: It’s not clear to me why this DJ-3A is listed on a UK site or whether this is a real ad, but it’s an interesting DJ-3A none-the-less. What I think has happened is that the description and photos may have been scraped from eBay. I looked for this jeep on eBay, but could not find it.
“First of all. must start by saying that this NOT a post office jeep. In 1955 &1956 Willys put out this vehicle & called it a Jeep Dispatcher / Delivery vehicle . deal for use in congested metropolitan areas. To me it’s just a cool little jeep. This jeep had a frame off restoration a couple years back. t that time the original owner changed the transmission from a manual 3 speed synchromesh to a turbo 350 automatic with a 6 volt system. The original transmission is included. very nut &bolt was saved just incase to switch it back. The jeep is in great shape & runs good. Just had it inspected in may 2013. can’t think of anything it needs. esides maybe a tune up. $500. Paypal deposit is required at end of auction. Balance to be paid within 7 days with postal mo. ank check or cash. Buyer is responsible for arranging shipping. I’ll be glad to assist in loading or working with you.

Nick’s got this project for sale.
“For sale is a 1946 Willys CJ2A project with a title. I have begun to get the Jeep running again but don’t have any more time. Was told by the last owner it was driven 5 years ago. This would be a great off-road toy or farm rig.
Engine is stuck. I pulled the head off, and checked the head to ensure it’s within head gasket tolerances. Engine was soaked in ATF for a couple weeks. I rewired and used the starter to bump the engine over a few times, and the pistons moved about an inch. It still needs worked. Good news is the engine isn’t completely seized in place.
Piston condition looks decent overall. 3 pistons look great and 1 has some pitting on the top. From its current rotation, the cylinder walls are all clean.
Frame is in good shape except for the driver rear which is shown in the pictures. The rest is solid with no rust-through spots. Front frame horns are straight. Body is rough as seen in the pictures. 2 tires hold air, 2 tires leak. Slight dry rotting but have almost new tread which are fine for off-road use.
Clutch pedal shaft was stuck but a prybar on the throwout bearing will move the clutch free. I worked the pedal shaft a bit.
You may come view this in a heated shop, and we have equipment to push right up your trailer. Feel free to call/text anytime of day.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2200.
(11/14/2017) Runs.

“1952 USMC version. Running condition and partial rebuilt. Own a piece of military history made in America. I personalized this to Olive Drab like the Army Jeeps, but the true USMC version is painted in Mountain Green, which is just a dark green color. With some minor work, you can have this ready for the July 4th parade or just a weekend vehicle to show off.
Seller was trying to sell these. Now he just wants to get rid of them.
“I have a bunch of random parts from rebuilding/working on my 1960 Willys wagon, I was trying to sell them, now I just want them gone.. It’s got a 1970 Ford 250 in it so there is stuff for both. There are a set of stock shocks, mismatched locking hubs, a generator, water pumps, some coils some distributer caps, some plug wires, miscellaneous hardware… All ranging from beat to hell to brand new. A great deal at 100 bucks but you have to take it all! I’m just tired of storing it all so come and get it!”
