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** $2500
(10/10/2015) The “h-top is made for going through deeper water”? lol. Runs and drives.
‘Hi-top model with Chrysler engine, h-top is made for going through deeper water without flooding out. We also have the cab that fits over the body. Comes with spare tire. Runs great, two speeds in four-wheel drive, this is the ultimate mud truck for your deep camp. Now near Ellisville but may drive it up to near Starkville MS.”
Needs some work.

Runs, but smokes.
“I have a ’48 Willys CJ-2A for sale. This is a recent barn find, it does have a PA title.
Runs strong, but still smokes a bit. Brakes need work, I haven’t inspected them. It seems to stop with the LF wheel after adding fluid to master cyl.
Body is typical of an old Jeep, but with way less rot than what you usually find.
Check out the pics and call/text me to come and see it. If this ad is up, I still have it. ”

“Hasn’t run in 10 years, ran when parked.
Great project for someone.
Title in hand”
It’s listed as a 1947 jeep.
“This a good, solid, no rust Willys Jeep…I has the original flat 4 that has been overhauled…the transmission is the 3 speed T-90 just rebuilt…brand new brakes and brake lines as well as new exhaust…the rims and tires are brand new super swampers…the interior was new last June…brand new alternator in August…
This is a solid fun vehicle …I will be honest it is not a daily driver has original suspension I added a 2 inch lift…it is great for parades or river running…I is geared super low and impossible to get stuck…I have the windshield as well but it will need new glass.”
http://omaha.craigslist.org/cto/5524544456.html
Runs, but no brakes.
“This is a nearly complete and very much original ’51 CJ-3A. The tub is very rough but the frame is solid. L-134 Go-Devil engine has original stamped 3A serial number and is still 6V. It starts and drives easily but has no brakes.
This is no doubt a serious project but if you are looking for a solid restoration platform this a good one.
Sold with bill of sale only. Delivery possible. ”

Dan’s got this racer for sale.
“This is a heavily modified and lightened 1972 Jeep Commando Racing Jeep. Full roll cage. It had an engine/transmission swap now sporting a LQ4 Chevy V8 Iron block w/ aluminum heads and a 4L80E transmission adapted to the Dana 300 transmission. Engine/transmission/wire harness/Computer came out of a running 2001 Silverado HD 2500 with 80000 miles on it. 4.10 welded differentials. Corvette radiator, fuel cell, exhaust, transmission shield, suspension seat come with the jeep. Need the electrical done, fuel line run, shocks, and tires. I am pretty sure brakes work but have not tested them yet. I was building it up for short track offroad racing (See cc4w.org) but ran out of time and work has gotten too busy for this season and so i bought another racing jeep. Have $6500 into it so far and will finish it if no one offers a reasonable amount. I’ll settle for $5000 to give me garage space and to see it go into another racer’s hands. ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $19,000.

It’s a project.
“This is a cool project jeep. The frame is straight and true. The motor turns freely and the tranny seems to shift correctly.
A lot of time and money already spent on this. The frame was taken to bare metal and coated with POR15 and painted flat black. All complete brake system as been replaced with new part, rubber and lines. The floor board were cut out and new welded in.
This is a project.”

Seller is parting out.
“I have a 1960 Jeep FC-150 that I am doing a quick part out on. The cab/doors/bed are all pretty rusted, and windshield and driver’s window are broken, but there are still parts on her that are worth saving including:
axles
door handles
window cranks
glove box
seat frames
sun visors
engine cover
trailer hitch
front bumper
steering wheel
dash
gear shifters
interior trim pieces
Passenger glass, rear glass, both quarter glass
If you need something, give me a call and I can see if it is still there. Unless it is something small, I don’t really have time to remove anything, so it will be on you to get it off/out. But give me a call and we can discuss availability and price.
Right now, the frame, tailgate side emblems and possibly the engine/trans are spoken for, and this weekend I am considering cutting her nose off to keep around the house. In a week or two, what is left will go to the scrap yard.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1400.
“For sale a 1948 Willys CJ2A. This is a project jeep (with matching numbers) that I just have not had time/interest to play with so I am selling it off. The condition is just as the pictures show. The good parts are the new tires and the engine was made running a month ago, replaced the points, plugs, carborator, and was mid-conversion to 12V. Many parts need replacement but there are still some good parts and a CJ-3A frame that is rusty but not rotted can be thrown in the mix. What you see is what you get.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $1400.
(02/13/2016) This might interest someone.
“1953 high hood; clear Oregon title; project jeep that I lost interest in; rough but fairly complete; price includes $500.00 of new parts including 12 volt hi-torque starter, fuel pump, carb rebuild kit, oil lines; jeep has been disassembled and some parts refurbished.”

Here’s another batch of photos courtesy of Charles.
original photo korea .. looks to be an M-170.
Christian shared the news that the jeep-group he started is heading to Italy this year. He wrote, “Right now we’re about to prepare for a trip down to Italy, where they celebrate the Liberation (Liberatione) on April 25th and a group of Jeep-enthusiasts started una colonna della liberta in 2006. Every year it takes place in a different region of Italy. This time it’ll be in the Padova area. We’ll roll down to there with a group of 11 Jeeps to join the Colonna with its about 150 WW2-US-military-vehicles.”

Glenn spotted this unusual rig.l
“Selling my good running Pinz because I am not using it as planned and I’m building a house. Purchased in 10/14 from Colorado. Prior owner painted the vehicle and did not treat surface rust beforehand (see photos). Original 4-cylinder. Speedo/odo is disconnected so mileage is unknown at present. Shifts smoothly through all five gears and transfer case works flawlessly in all three positions. Portal axles. 24 volt system with dual deep cycle batteries wired in series. Has newer all-weather cab top. Rear top and sides are original, but more than serviceable. Interior in good shape. Legally registered in CA. If you don’t know the breed, a little research will tell you all you need to know. No trades.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3200.
“Selling my 1952 Korean war military M38 jeep. Runs very good and shifts fine. Engine does smoke but has 12-13 p.s.i. oil pressure at idle warm so I suspect valve guide seals are in order. See compressions below. Many new parts including brake master cylinder, all wheel cylinders and pre bent brake line kit. ($250.00) Brakes work great! New correct fuel tank ($450.00) Original included with purchase. 12 volt, 3 wire alternator conversion. New12 volt gauge package. Ammeter, temperature, fuel gage and oil pressure all work. New head gasket with cylinders inspected with no scoring or cracks. Mating surfaces hand stoned and new high quality fel-pro gasket installed. Compressions are 110, 110,110, 106 respectively. Engine has original overhaul tag still installed as shown. A lot of stuff goes with this towards restoration. Has a 24 volt wiper motor installed that does work if hooked up but it is a little slow as it is now a 12 volt system.
Front floor boards do have some rust but it is in no means a “Flintstones Mobile”. Rear floor is good. Cowl battery box is in great shape. There is a small rust spot below driver’s door as seen. Ex Air Force “Personnel Services” jeep that was than delivered to the Civil Air Patrol. It has been modified to except a civilian top. Even has a heater that works great!! Comes with the 5-15″ civilian tires and wheels that are on it, plus 6-16″ military wheels as shown in the pictures. There is NO body filler on this and only very minor dents. Windshield glass is in like new condition with no fading. Paint is ugly but if you have some imagination you can see the potential. Frame and bumpers are in great shape but the front will need minor straightening. All lights are working as they should, including “Black out” marker lights but the right rear tail light is wired to the left so that they both work at the same time versus the military configuration that only one side worked at a time depending on the light switch position. Horn is functional but not connected as it is missing the rod that goes in the steering column. Can easily be made as the specs are on the interweb. This is one fun vehicle to drive! Be the first one on your block to have one!! Sold with bill of sale only.”
Has a bunch of updates.
