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 .

“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.”
UPDATE: **Sold** Was $13,500.
“Frame off restoration includes: New suspension, Steering, Tires, Brake lines, Brakes, Wheel Cylinders, Master Cylinder, electrical and all components including lights, relays and switches. All body parts blasted to view, remove and replace any needed metal. New gas tank and lines. New gages and sending units. New water pump, fuel pump, alt (12v), carb, also radiator pressured checked and serviced. Original Go-Devil flat head four cylinder runs nice. Painted in military scheme and seats redone in canvas. Everything works including horn, dash light and heater. Many hours went into this little CJ and will make someone a nice parade toy or just to enjoy on the back roads. 1953 was the lowest production year for the CJ3A and NADA on a restored CJ3A is over seventeen thousand. My price is $13,500 firm. Please, No Trades, first come first serve. Clear North Carolina title in hand.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
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.
“CJ2a Mostly stock has Chevy 350 aluminum intake and 4 barrel carb, mag wheels otherwise stock.”

“I have for sale a 47′-48′ Willys CJ2A. Does not run but does crank over easily. I tried to get it running but then plans for it changed. Has new plugs and wires. This is a solid jeep. We purchased it to swap bodies with another jeep and found a better candidate. The front fenders are not rusted out on the bracing. hood is straight. Has the correct Carter W-O carburetor and it moves freely. All parts are there engine, transmission, transfercase, driveshafts, axles, wheels, tires, winshield, rollbar, ect. No title. Would make a great start for your winter project.”
Next updates monday morning.
Jiro wanted to share photos of his 1962 willys farm based pick-up with 31,000 original miles. It has a garwood conversion as shown in the brochure at the bottom of the post. Everything is original except that the oil canister has been converted to a standard oil filter set-up, and it is now a 12 volt system. Also, the original gas tank has been replaced with an all aluminum tank. Other than that all factory installed equipment still works and nothing was replaced.
As you can see, Jiro’s got a really nice place to drive it in Hawaii.
Paul spotted this CJ-2A made tiny by the huge power shovel. He spotted the photo on ‘Just a Car Guy‘.
I can’t tell how big this is.

Runs, however I have Carb and Fuel Tank off of it right now. I drove it on the trailer when I purchased it. Had an improper Rochester Carb on it that was leaking on the manifold.

Tired of it sitting and taking up space. Has new plugs, wires, spark plugs and electronic distributor, I’ll throw in, not mounted yet. Nice little Jeep. Has a Nissan lockable steering column in it.

(06/17/2014) “I have a 1954 M38A1 Military Jeep for sale. It has 20,000 original miles on it. I have gone through everything on the Jeep. I have owned it since 1986 but I don’t get to use it much anymore so I decided to sell it instead of letting it sit, when someone else could be driving it and having a good time. Hot August Nights is just around the corner.
This February 1956 explains how jeeps are used at a riding club at Iron Mountain, Michigan.
