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 .

“1950 Willy Overland Jeepster, an older restoration done over 20 years ago but still looks nice. It runs and drives nice, except 2nd gear pops out of gear when you release pressure off the accelerator pedal. I am not a mechanic but I think it may need a clutch adjustment. Excellent condition top and side curtains, no holes or rips. Nice black and red exterior and interior. New tires with Willy’s hubcaps. Converted to 12 volt for convenience. Priced very fair for a collector and fun classic car. I will be posting pictures in a few days or so. No low ball offers please! ”

The August 11, 1958, issue of the Sydney Morning Herald featured a long review of the CJ-3B, whose parts were imported into Australia and then assembled there. You can review the article at Google news as it original appeared or read my re-arranged version (for space purposes) below. The reviewer’s biggest complaint was due to the way the jeep is converted from left to right-hand drive, leaving the gearshift to the left of the transfer case shifters.
From the August 11, 1958 issue of the Sydney Morning Herald Page 5.
Marc spotted this photo. Can anyone interpret the markings on this jeep?

Nice looking jeep with updates.
“1952 WILLYS JEEP. I AQUIRED THIS JEEP IN A TRADE WITH GENTLEMAN THAT HAD OWNED IT FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS AND HAVE A FOLDER FULL OF PAPERWORK OF THINGS DONE TO THIS JEEP.
THIS IS A 1952 WILLYS JEEP ON A 1962 MAIL CARRIER FRAME(WHICH I WAS TOLD AND DOING RESEARCH IS STRONGER). THE BODY IS ORIGINAL BUT EVERYTHING ELSE HAS BEEN UPDATED OR UPGRADED SOMEHOW.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This CJ-2A looks in good shape.
“For your consideration, a very nice and clean example of an early cj-2a.. appears to have been restored quite a few years ago, but I cannot be certain as to when it was done…. Actually the paint appears to be aged consistently, along with the original weathered oak hood blocks.. Seats are the original leatherette grey fabric , and are in nice shape, along with the original rear seat.
Frame is excellent, along with the bumper and gussets that are original to the jeep. There is no rust to speak of, besides some paint missing on the drivers flor due to gas being spilled there. Furthermore, there is mild surface rust on some of the underside areas, but thats to be expected with a vehicle of this age.
UPDATE: Was $5995. **Status Unknown**

“Mint condition, 1953 Willys Jeep with all of the Army decals. You do not find an army jeep in this condition often. This jeep looks like it just came off the show room floor prior to going to a Mash movie. All stock except for the front wheel hubs. I drove it in the Daffodil parade and taken it to car shows. It is a head turner.”

It runs, but needs work.
“This is an original fire dept truck,ole no.5, it shows 22k miles,i think they are right but you be the judge,it does need restored. If I prime it it will run,I think it needs a fuel pump,carb rebuilt,it does not smoke ,the brakes are down, the hydraulic pump on blade does work,This is original paint so it is not like you are going to run into anything hidden,it does have some rust spot,cab corner outside are good but are rusted inside,the inside bed has surface rust,but no holes,The windshield is broke but does have a good one to go in,tires are good,doors fit real nice and tight,The front drive shaft is out and I know nothing about the 4 wheel drive,the seats need redone,,I took the original off,springs are good,the tail gate works fine and not all dented up,Now just think about it wouldn’t this be a neat truck for a plow company advertisement,,It is for sale locally,,”
UPDATE: Was $20,000. **SOLD**
(08/28/2014) Looks solid.
“I am selling my 1945 Willy’s MB that I restored in 2005. Since the restoration the Jeep has been driven 3000 miles and is in perfect running and driving condition. Every part on this jeep has been replaced or re-built when the restoration was done.The only bad thing about the Jeep is that it has some minor bumps and minor scratches from being driven, stored , shows and parades. With that being said it is not a trailer queen I have enjoyed driving it every one of those 3000 miles. The only reason I am selling it is because I don’t have time for it and keeping it stored is not doing it any favors. I would love for this Jeep to go to someone that will use and enjoy it.The Jeep includes the working Radios, and plenty of gear to go with it to make it authentic. The DOD on this Jeep is 7/11/1945. The Body is a reproduction but the frame and most of the hardware is either NOS or original. This was an original radio jeep and the old body can be included with the sale if the buyer wants it. The restoration was photo documented and I have all receipts to show that I am asking much less than I have in it. The Jeep has a clean VA title and YOM license plate that can be registered to the new owner.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $2200.
(01/11/2015) The price might make this worth a look. The steering wheel is a hoot.
