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 .
Drain holes have been filled, so it must have had some body work.
“selling my 1947 Jeep willys 4 cyl,4 wheel drive, 3 speed manual transmission,motor engine works great,located in Point Reyes Station,”
http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/cto/5766221159.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $550.
Seems like a reasonable price.
“Very rare 1947 Sears and Roebuck trailer. Perfect for Jeep owners or anyone with a small truck or car that needs more hauling capacity. Has Ford truck/Jeep lug pattern so you can put matching rims on it. Has drop downs like a commissary trailer. Bed is 46″ wide x 6′ long x 12″ high (inside measurements) and has a tailgate. Prior owners bought it in 1963 and used it for camping by putting side boards and a canvas tarp over it (support rods included). Comes with a new trailer light/wiring kit. Has heavy duty fenders that just need to be bolted back on. Has some rust but usable as is or do a full restoration. I was going to treat it Por15 rust stop and then plastic bed line it but figured I’d go ahead and sell it as is and let the new owner decide how to restore it. I have too many projects to mess with it right now. Permanent plates included. Come take a look and make an offer. ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $850.
It’s a project.
“CJ2A WILLYS jeep. Part out or rebuild. RAT ROD potential as it has an aluminum 215Ci Buick V8, four barrel manifold, mated to the jeep transmission and transfer case, axles and springs complete rolling chassis. Steering is intact. ID tags are on firewall but no title. Great even patina. No trades.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000.
(07/04/2016) Looks like a custom hood.
“1948 Jeep with an 83 Buick V6. Body is in great condition. 4 ton winch on the front. Removable top”
I was supposed to report on our trip, meeting Lloyd, and seeing Robin’s collection (and stopping by Montana Wheat). However, once again, I’m am exhausted from a long day of driving. The good news is that we made it back to Pasco and I completed some updates. 🙂
On Wednesday we have one more day of driving. We’ll be heading back to Seattle, to Auburn, to Yelm, and then back to Pasco. But, Ann will be doing some of the driving, so I’ll get the story of our trip up, finally.
Here’s Robin and I in front of his Model D (not T or A) jeep. Yes, there is a jeep under that fiberglass shell. It’s a vehicle I listed on eWillys not too long ago.
UPDATE: I’ve added engine photos to the bottom of the post.
Rusty was owned and driven (apparently very roughly) on a farm near Billings, Montana. There are numerous welds, necessary to fix the cracks that appeared. The hubcaps have all kinds of dents, as does the body, the grille, hood, and the fenders. No part seemed spared. According to Lloyd, the man we bought it from, he purchased at an estate sale. The fact was, the farmer who owned it refused to sell it while alive, so Lloyd had to wait until he died. Lloyd was told it ran until it was parked and that it was parked due to the man becoming unable to drive it. At least, that’s the story. Still, the engine spins, the tranny shifts, and the jeep rolls easily.
Glenn tells me this was manufactured in late 1955 and made available for sale in 1956. I believe the color is pine tint, not far from the sea foam green color I’d intended to paint Biscuit (before I receive the wrong color from the paint company, but that’s another story).
Here are more than thirty photos that show the good, bad, ugly. What I can’t photograph is the smell emanating from the seats. lol.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
Could be worth a look.
