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 .
No drive train, but still looks to have value.
“This is a rolling chassis 1975 CJ6 Jeep. This was left in our lot when we purchased the building and the previous owner used it for mockup for custom made parts. There is NO TITLE and is sold as is with no engine or transmission. Great project parts jeep for someone.”

This edition of the Toledo Blade celebrated the 50th anniversary of Willys Overland. It includes some jeep photos. It isn’t cheap.
“Rare find, this issue was devoted to the Willys Overland Co, celebrating 50 years of business. The entire paper has celebratory ads to the Willys Co. Includes history of the co, as well as advertisements for Jeep and Willys cars. Has both sections, 48 pages. Really nice shape for a newspaper this old.”

“I am selling my 71 cj6. This is a one of a kind vehicle and I can guarantee nobody has one like it. I have completely built it from the ground up. A cj6 is from the factory 20” longer than a cj5. I took this cj6 and cut it down the middle from front to back and widened it 14.5 inches! Yes that means it took two of everything to build this jeep, two grills, two hoods, windshield frames ect. The body sits on a 73 chevy blazer frame with 3/4 ton axles and 37 in tires. The engine is a 5.9 12 valve cummins out of an 89 dodge pickup. If you know about diesels then you know that this engine is as reliable as they get, best diesel ever made. It has a tf727 automatic transmission that was rebuilt less than 2000 miles ago, in fact the entire jeep has les than 2000 miles on it sense it was built. here is a parts list.

(09/28/2016) This Vincent Van goes.
“This cute little delivery van started it’s life in 1962 working for the Post Office as a mail route delivery van. It is on a jeep chassis, with a jeep 4 cylinder engine and automatic transmission. It is right drive and has roll up door in the rear – both very handy for delivery purposes. The running gear is good and the body is almost perfect, no dings or dents. 1 small rust spot! The paint is called Torrid Teal!! Recent application of clear coat. All glass is okay – one window has a small crack but solid. Interior is in good shape. Interior and exterior lights all work. Has a basic PA system for when it was an ice cream sales vehicle (not complete). Please e-mail if you have questions or need further information.
Current license and clear title.”
For some reason there appears to be a serial number tag on the outside of the passenger front frame rail.
“Willys 1945 MB Jeep

I wouldn’t gamble on that paint being original (get it, Reno … gambling … yeah, kind of a dull jeep night!). There were two green colors offered by W-O in 1953, Willow Green Poly and Woodstock Green Poly. I don’t think this one is either.
“Incredible find. Classic Willys with original exterior paint,with no rust and original interior. Extensive mechanical overhaul with new STA tires. Stored indoors for the last 30 years. Runs good, looks good.”
http://reno.craigslist.org/cto/5846370616.html
Doesn’t run, but rust doesn’t appear too bad.
“Features:
Original 4-wheel drive running gear
Early 327 CI Chevrolet engine
Mostly all there
Comes with tow bar
Condition:
Does not currently run
Engine turns, not seized
Decent condition overall
Some rust at back tailgate and some under doors
Fairly straight, small dents on driver side

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
It’s a project.
“1962 Willys FC170 4wd. I was planning on restoring this over the winter, however don’t believe that will happen. The frame is solid and the engine is not seized, but it does not run. Due to the year of the FC, it never had a title. I spoke with the NYC DMV prior to purchasing this project and they provided all the necessary paperwork required to register the vehicle once it is ready for the road. This is the late style cab to assist in the air flow for the engine cooling.
This is a project jeep. The cab needs work, however I purposed looked for a flatbed style to limit the amount of sheet metal work required.
Definably one of the more unique Jeep designs and would be a blast once she is completed. ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $250.
It runs.
“1951 Willys Jeep engine and transmission and overdrive for sale. Four cylinder 134 ci F-head. Regularly driven and used– doesn’t smoke or make any bad noises. All systems working including the overdrive. Been converted to 12v.
My apologies for not being more clear: this is being removed from a 2 wheel drive Willys wagon. There is no transfer case. The overdrive is engaged by a push-pull control under the dash.
Will be available in about a week. You haul, its in the Eugene Springfield area.”
Needs work.
“This posting is for a 1954 willys jeep. Frame off restoration was started needs body work and paint jeep is solid. Comes with transmition no motor 90% complete email jimmy with any question and I will call u back asap”

UPDATE: Price dropped to $3500.
It’s a project with a Sears hardtop.
“Letting go of my ’44 MB. Awesome rolling project with a unique piece raily to never seen. This one has a hard top! It is an aftermarket hard top sold by Sears in the early 50’s and is prett rare as I have never seen another one on an MB. Has Buick V6 with cast iron block, great reliable engine. I have a few boxes of other spare parts to add in, seat pads, stick shift boots, brake cylindars, etc. Needs an altenator and a new front passenger side axle. Both easily findable after market parts.
Has been garaged since I got it from my uncle a few years back. It was in working condition when he parked it about 20 years ago and sat outside under a covered roof during that time, so pretty well preserved with very little rust issues. Other than someone stealing the altenator off of it, it is all there.”

Needs some back brakes adjusted, but looks like pretty stock.
“1964 Willys CJ5 Jeep 4X4, 4 cyl F-head, 3 sp trans, 2 sp transfer, Ramsey PTO driven winch. The speedo says 22,000 miles but its not an A title. New tires, Fuel/vacuum pump, carburetor, Cleaned the tank, new hoses and belt, tune up, blower motor, removed the front end and rebuilt it, all three seats recovered, lock out hubs. It came with and original Willys 1/2 cloth top with doors but it was trashed but I saved the hardware and the cloth if somebody can use it to make a pattern more power to them. This is a 50 mph vehicle. It is also about the most unmolested CJ I have ever seen. Have you ever seen one with the original tail lights? First for me. Still has the canvas on the tail gate chains. No rust, even in the hat channels. The bad is, whoever had a jerry can holder on the drivers side like on the pass side and they must of caught it on something and slightly damaged the body where it mounted (in pictures). It needs a replacement glove box insert ($20) and glove box door button which believe it or not is not easy to come by for an original one for a 1964. Also needs the back brakes adjusted, I don’t have a hub puller to inspect. Runs good, goes down the road good, everything works. I bought this to avoid firing up my diesel to run to the store around town. Comes with a tow bar and that same whoever had a trailer plug in the front for towing. ”
Looks in good shape.
