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 $1900.
(12/01/2016) Video shows it ran a few months ago.
“I have a 1946 Jeep Willys CJ-2A for sale.

Has new carb, spark plugs/wires, battery and rebuilt starter. The hood has been cleaned up and painted. This will make a great winter project!”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(02/16/2016) It’s an interesting project.

Gary Holbrook, a long time member of the Jolly Jeepers of the PNW4WDA, shared this video. Not only does he show off his fascinating build, but he also discusses one of his club’s annual summer Back to Basics Rally in Oregon.
Mark just posted this custom truck over at sellajeep.com.

Bill spotted this free windshield.
“Please call me if you need a makeshift windshield. See pictures. It appears to have been shortened a bit, say two inches. I’m changing it out with a new one. It works but probably not with a rag-top fit. I think it will work fine with someone who doesn’t use a top.
You can tell it was cut off at the old pivot points and re drilld for new bolt holes and pivot points/attachment points.
You can have it if you pay shipping. It will be an excellent replacement for one that got crushed by a roll over. You can see on the photo where the two inch long bolts stick up and hold the latches.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8950.
Looks in good shape.
“This is an original, unrestored, and unmolested station wagon which was first purchased in Pueblo, CO and spent the majority of its life there. The PO brought it to Texas before selling it. The wagon still sports its original Peacock Blue color. Though worn, it still retains the matching interior seats, headliner, and door panels. Only the front seat has been reupholstered.
The engine is the then optional Super Hurricane straight six cylinder that is coupled to a manual three speed, two speed transfer case with manual locking Warn front hubs.
Updates include new brakes, wheel cylinders, and flexible hoses all around, plus a new master cylinder. The carburetor, starter, and steering gear box have been rebuilt. There are new tie rod ends and the steering drag link refurbished. The Warn hubs have been serviced to include new o-rings and gaskets. Additionally, there is a new gas tank, new fuel pump, new spark plugs, and a new factory correct wiring harness. The oil and oil filter have been changed as well as flushing the radiator and replacing the anti-freeze.
There are two small through rust holes — one on the right and one on left side fenders. Also, there are some small holes in the tailgate where it appears someone tried to pull out a dent. There are some lumps and bumps, dents, and minor surface rust consistent with a vehicle this age. However, it is in amazing rust free condition for an unrestored vehicle i.e. it has “age appropriate” patina.
The following items require attention at some point. The wipers and horn are not currently functioning. There is an oil leak coming from the engine pan gasket. The transmission synchros are worn which requires double clutching when down shifting.
These Willys Super Hurricane Six, 4X4 wagons are getting harder to find particularly in unmolested and virtually rust free condition. The mileage shown of 105,00 + is accurate according to the PO. Call, ask questions, and take it for a drive. You will be pleased. ”
UPDATE: Yes, not a misprint: 6.5HP … This has been updated with what might be a lawnmower engine. And what the heck is on the inside of the hood??
“1952 willys with 6.5 hp predetor
Runs and drives low and high gear forward and reverse shifts like a normal standard but without clutch. Sometimes the chain will fall off but if you take your time giving it gas it works ok.
Has radio and towbar for 2 inch ball just something for a decoration in the yard the kids can play with I guess. No title has vin.

RECENT PICS:
OLD JEEP:
Looks nice.
“For sales is a nice 1948 Jeepster. We searched a long time before finding this car outside of Philadelphia and bring it up to MA. It’s a great driver with the 3 speed on the column and overdrive.
A very nice older body off restoration. Runs well. Good mechanically, paint good, chrome is excellent. Engine was rebuilt at time of restoration. This is a good driver ready for family fun or is a good start for someone who wants to turn it into a show car.
Quick video of the car can be viewed here: https://youtu.be/rmX6l-yFIPY”
