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: **Status Unknown** Was $22,000
(11/11/2014) Lots of updates.
“High end restore of a no rust western Willy’s Overland wagon 1958….clean and straight with professional build, using a corvette 327 sbsc base and 4spd muncie trans… built and runs excellent. Much more invested. Very nice interior….zero rust body, and high end finish and paint.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
(11/24/2014) This runs and drives. It might be worth a look.
“Everything is original except top it has been converted from 24 volt to 12 volt. Original name plauqe. Runs good this would be a great resteration project! Sold as is”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $800
Jon forwarded this non-running project.
“1954 willys jeep model M170 military ambulance. Drive train is complete. I have extra pieces like top bows and air cleaner. The body is rough but repairable the engine is not running but is free turning. The original 24volt components are still with the jeep. The front fenders do come with the truck but are badly dented. The frame is extremely solid. This jeep does come with a Clean and clear TN title. Great for Father Son project. These jeeps are a rare 101 inch wheel base version. Many parts are available for this jeep including the sheet metal.”
Blaine found a flattie project and a Topeka project for sale and some other parts.
1. Flattie is $500. Dogs are worn, but the steel rims may have life. It’s sat for a long time.
2. Topeka Mower has Jeep running gear (T-98 4 sp.) limited slip dif.
I don’t know how rare these are, but I imagine there can’t be too many left.
“I have an M151 engine and Zenith carb. Which I believe have never been installed. The fellow I got it from uncrated it (nooooooooo!) a couple of years ago. Notice the picture of the valve and the original green ord. oil filter.”

“Good restoration project… all original parts… email me for more pictures. You don’t find them in this condition very often.”
UPDATE: Was $1800. **SOLD**
(12/10/2014) This stock truck runs and drives. It’s a good reason to visit San Juan Island, which is very quiet this time of year.
“I am selling my 1955 Willy’s pickup. It is totally stock . The original “Super Hurricane” six cylinder engine runs great without any smoke or knocking . The four wheel drive and trans shift and function smoothly without any clunks or grinds or any sounds at all. Cooling system hold water and thermostat works .Tires hold air.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4200.
(01/06/2015) Has an updated motor.
“Clean 52 willys m38 military jeep with a rare military hard top. Motor was swapped with Chevy 231 straight 6. Motor is from 62. Runs amazing and fires right up. Everything works and is turn key. Jeep is a real head turner and will take you ANYWHERE. Story behind the jeep was that it was in service during the korean war and was decommisoned from the military in 54. It was then used by the fire department as a utility truck and later sold to the public in the late 50’s. Whoever bought it from the fire department, professionally swapped the oriniginal 4 with the bullet proof Chevy 231. If youre looking for an awesome authentic military jeep, here it is. Clean title and street legal.”
UPDATE: Was $2600 **Status Unknown**
(11/02/2014) This might make a good restoration.

“1949 WILLYS CJ2A, 260 V8,3 SPEED, ROLL BAR, TOW BAR, LIFTED, TILT WHEEL, SPARE PARTS, RUNS GOOD. CALL CHUCK”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
I dont’ recognize the type of fiberglass body nor the grille. I can only imagine the windshield came with the body??? It’s an oddball.
“Willy’s CJ2 NO TITLE
Fiberglass body, fenders, hood that are old style and need some work
Engine siezed
Rolls fine, has axles, 3spd trans, transfer case
Frame can use a little work
NO TITLE”
UPDATE: Was $2000. **SOLD**
Body appears to have bondo (or something else) on the passenger side. Still, it runs and drives!
“Everything works. Title. Delivered anywhere in Chattanooga area. Extra set of fat tire wheels. Extra parts.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000
The photo makes it appear the jeep tilts forward, but I’m betting that’s an optical illusion, unless the front wheels are really really small. I don’t think they are that small.
“1948 Willy’s jeep, with 4 cylinder Pontiac engine, has title, and runs.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
No doubt this project is worth a look.
“Rare 45 cj2a. #217 of 1824 built in 45. Completely disassembled for storage. Body has rust but very saveable. I belive the motor is a 47 or 48 & is stuck. $1500 obo”
This has been for sale since 2012. Not a whole lot of value here.
“Been sitting for years.

Now powered by a flathead 6.
“Great running, solid Jeep. Flathead 6 cyl New brakes, hubs, drums etc. brand new tires (5), new steering joints, exhaust system, 12v with alternator.
This Jeep runs and drives well on the road and the 4WD works fine.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500
At least it has the tailgate. I’ve heard those are hard to find.
“Actually it’s the back half of the truck – bed, frame, differential, etc. I know – sacrilege! I didn’t do this and the person that did probably had a good reason.
Regardless – the bed/trailer is for sale. If you’re into Willys Forward Control Trucks you know how rare this is. The condition of the bed is fair but in my opinion restorable. There are certainly some bends and twists and even a very limited amount of cancer but nothing that can’t be fixed. I’m posting lots of pictures so you can see the condition for yourself.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $999.
Looks in good shape.
“sandblasted and primed,spins freely.very rare,rest of the parts are at www.capstanwinch.com”
Vintage set of 10 spline Warn hubs. Seller also has newer set for more money.
“I have two sets of Warn locking hubs. Both are for 10 spline axle shafts and six bolt flange mounting. They are compatible with many years of jeeps.
1. Plastic dial set is in perfect working order. They are also compatible with threaded axle shafts on early jeeps. No need to remove or cut off the shaft, they work with the nut installed. $50
2. Brass dial premium set (Warn part number 29062) are new in box, never installed. These are also compatible with all the same years of vehicles. If used on threaded axle shafts the threads will need to be cut off per Warn’s instructions. These retail for $210. I am selling them for $150.”
