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: Price dropped to $7470.

UPDATE: I’ve updated the information on this. John’s looking for someone who appreciate this pretty stock M-38A1 that John uses on a daily basis. It’s named “JW” for his uncle JW, who taught John how to drive in an MB many years ago.
You can contact John directly via email at John_cooper67 @ yahoo.com (remove the spaces from around the @) or phone him at 870 688 1775.
“This has been my “daily driver since 2014. Everything works. $14,000 or reasonable offer.
It includes two tops (a modern Bestop and a canvas summer top) and tire chains.
It still has an F-head.
Everything is original.
After it’s military service, the jeep was painted white and used as a civil defense vehicle, Then, it was painted olive drab and used as a prop in the movie Selma. I purchased it after that.”
UPDATE: I’ve added the updated scans. This is actually a nicely illustrated brochure. I don’t think my scans really captured the color.
Here’s a brochure I’ve never seen that I just purchased on eBay. My guess is it a late 1940s brochure. I’ll update it with better pics when it arrives.
Neither jeep has front frame horns, so it’s not clear exactly what years these are. Both appear to be militarized CJ-2As or CJ-3As in very good shape.

It’s curious this CJ-3B has an aftermarket body that includes a battery box in the cowl. Thanks to John for sharing.

“1953 willys 3B WITH PAPERWORK. Project car but it’s all there. Engine will need to be overhauled or replaced. Winter roof and full second set of galvanized wheels. Tub has not been drilled for pedals and is in great shape. Frame is decent. Some new parts like clutch and engine gaskets”
Gary shared this running CJ-2A (includes video of engine running).

All original, CJ 2A with the iconic Go Devil engine. This little Willys has all original drivetrain. It runs great! Starts, steers and stops as it should. New clutch. New gas tank, new fuel pump, and rebuilt carburetor.  New tires on some sweet vintage deep dish wheels. Clean Colorado title in hand. We bought a side-by-side for my wife, so I need to liquidate a little of my Willys collection to help the bank account recover.”
I haven’t had much time for jeep play, as the property, cows and gardens have required and will require a great deal of my attention over the next week. Next weekend we will be welcoming two additional 1000lb steerings that get slaughtered in August or Sept (hopefully), while our three young heifers need to be moved to the neighbor’s pasture where they will spend the summer bulking up for slaughter (or sale) next fall. And, so much more!
So, there will be limited, if any, updates for the upcoming week. I’d say I’m taking a vacation week, but it won’t be much of a vacation!
As for the steering, I welded the floor notch into the floor cover and welded a shelf to the frame for the heim joint. I still need to drill the holes for each of the shaft couplers, get a stock rubber replacement boot for the Rack and Pinion joint, and paint some of the parts, but otherwise the steering is ready to go. Once I get the stock seat installed, I’ll revisit the height of the steering wheel; I may need to shorten the steering column and shaft by a couple inches. But, that’s an easily done thing after everything is together.
I have a plan for running these brake lines along the interior of the frame (not inside the frame), but I will likely wait to redo them until after I pull the cab. So, these lines will be clamped and more neatly run once the steering is in place.
What you see for the bracket holding the V-dog is a 3/8″ angle piece welded vertically to a 3/8″ thick horizontal angle piece held to the frame by three bolts that were already there. It’s a snug fit, but there’s just enough room to make it work.
You can see some of the welds underneath the frame that need to be cleaned and reworded.
I added a slot to the Heim Joint bracket because without it disassembly would be difficult.
My longer transfercase cable should be here Monday or Tuesday, so the transfercase shifter will be the next install. Once that’s in place, I can install the new gauges and build the new transmission cooler bracket. All that will be followed (or coincide) with the new gas pedal setup based on the late 1960s VW bus. Then comes the e-brake and, finally, the wiring.
I’m sure this was a service station jeep at some point. It’s got a PTO tow setup in the rear with what looks to be a Koenig half cab? I might have a big push bumper in the front. While the listed price is $10k, it sounds like the seller is really just looking for best offer.
