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 .
Charles shared some Dutch Federal Police photos with jeeps emblazoned with KONMARECHAUSSEE.

Seller also has a couple CJ-2As for sale.
“Selling 3 1965 Jeep CJ5’s. All original, all run, too much to list. They are alot of fun in the woods, but no longer have time or room for them. Looking to sell all three as package, Do not want to part out or sell separate. They are fairly rare, and am not looking to take a loss on them. Only Reasonable offers will be considered. We also have a coulple 46 willys, but would have to be the right price on those. We have other vintage auto and odds and ends we are looking to get rid of, and are willing to talk if someone is interested. Phone calls only Please. ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000?
Maybe 2 CJ-2As, 2 CJ-3As and a possible DJ-3A.
“5 willys jeeps that roll and engines are not seized. 1 run and drive yr ago then been setting. 1 jeep is on blocks but full of various willys parts. all have potential of running. they have been in the barn for years exceptions of the one that was parked. It was on the deer lease it also has a winch on front. ALL JEEPS MUST GO TOGETHER AND WILL NOT MAKE ANY EXCEPTIONS!!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9500.
Looks good.
“1948 Willys Jeepster; Fine example of an older restoration. Runs well, overdrive works, mechanically sound. Some old parts included such as: heater, radio, fuel pump.”
UPDATE: **SOLD**
It doesn’t run.
“Well I’m sure no expert on Jeeps, but a guy I know, has had this FC-170 in a barn for the last 20 years, or so.
I ended up with it in a trade.
This is what I would call a “Barn Find”.
Here is what I know….
It belonged to a fire dept. in the mountains here in Colorado.
I believe the 66,147 miles are actual.
It was taken out of service waiting for a muffler system.
This jeep is filthy dirty, and just how I received it.
I have spun the engine by hand, and it “Turns free”.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
Drive as is or restore it.
“1955 pickup. 95% complete and original truck. A lot of mechanical work has been done. Perfect truck for a first time restoration job.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5200.
It’s not all original, but appears solid.
“1945 Willys Jeep CJ2A for sale. Hate to lose her but Im moving overseas. She is #10170 which you can research and see as the #170th CJ2A made after WWII. I rebuilt the transmission and the motor is great. Like all CJ2As this old there is a slight drip from the transmission housing. She has been up and running great for the past 2 years, I however have not been in El Paso for the past 6 months so the battery is dead and the fuel pump will need to be primed to get running again. After extensive research, there are a few parts that are not original, windshield is from a 1948, electrical is converted to 12V from 6V and the rear axle was upgraded to the 1948 model. This is an amazing find, and I don’t want to see her go- email or text with questions.”
UPDATE: **SOLD* Was $3500.
Not much rust evident.
“Antique 1957 Willy’s Pick-up. Has a small block V-8 Engine, power takeoff wench, This vehicle is in good shape for an Antique, the first $3500.00 gets to take it home or best offer.”

Includes an overdrive.
“1949 Jeep CJ-2A,Chevy 4 Cylinder 3 Speed With Overdrive Very Good Condition, Must See To Appreciate”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1250.
Currently in Mexico. No reason to believe it is a ’56. Seller’s photos seem to be backwards (I fixed the bottom one).
“Rusted, Spackled, painted multiple times by a moron, engine gone and needs replacement, 2 and 4 wheel drive with both high and low, three on the floor, awesome relic from yesteryear… only thing redone is the seats… many, many hours of work required to make Dora (named after someone with similar attributes) run again… Parked in my garage in Puerto Penasco (Rocky Point, Mx)…”
UPDATE: Still Available.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.
No key. Hasn’t run recently.
“1948 Jeep Willys for sale $3000 or best offer. We bought from one of our customers about 6 months ago. This jeep has been in their family since their dad bought it back in the day. We have a clear title, plate and manuals. They said it did run at one time and it is missing a key. We liked the jeep so much that we loaded it on our trailer. It definitely needs some work.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
It’s a project with a reproduction tub.
“I just dont have time for this project, This is an excellent willys jeep that is a great project. It has a reproduction body that is very solid, although it does have a small amount of rust but as you can see from the pics, its very straight. It also has a full soft top, and doors, and an excellent roll bar, good gas tank, the brakes work, new fuel pump, and has all the original parts (except air cleaner) . No leaks, I have serviced the entire willys and all rolling stock seems to be good shape.
The engine does smoke and i imagine you will need to rebuild it, but the engine is solid and original, and is not cracked. Also still on 6 volts, with a good battery. The clutch will also need some work, but that is easy once the engine is out. \
If you simply price some of the parts like a repro body, this is great deal on such a project.”
Still needs the steering and brakes finished.
“1942 Willys Jeep 4×4 3spd in decent condition lifted onto Rockwell 5 Ton Axles, 11.00×20 tires, small block Chevy engine
-the jeep does has a clean “rebuilt” New Mexico title
-will need tie rod and steering arm to complete the project along with differential brakes
****Any reasonable offer will be considered, I’m moving and cant take the project with me so I would be most interested in trades for firearms, ATV’s and of course cash”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
It’s a project.
“I have a 1951 willys for sale with a 302 V8 from a ford mustang. I have replaced the fuel pump with a new electric fuel pump, new plugs and wires along with cap and rotor, gas tank… This was intended to be a project and just never got around to working on it.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
Has the wrong grille for a 48.
“FOR SALE: 1948 Willys pickup, completely original, with engine, trans, and transfer case, everything there, very restorable or rod, as you want. any questions please call FRED. ASKING $2500.00 OR BEST OFFER”
No pics provided.
“I have a 1947 CJ2 for sale it has the original Hercules motor in it and runs very smooth. I use the jeep on my place when the weather is nice. I put all new front end bearings in it and tie rod ends. The box was extended about 18 inches when I bought it. The person who extended it actually did pretty good work when they did it. Not going to lie it does need some work if you want to fully restore it but that’s to be expected it is a 47 but for the most part it is in fairly good shape all the lights work and horn 4×4 works good both high and low range.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000.
“For sale 46 willys jeep. Jeep runs & drives. Needs battery & front breaks. Has new tires on the rear. Has soft top on it & has hard top to go with it. Have doors to go with soft & hard top. Has a stock heater in it. Asking 6000 or best offer.”
This June 1955 photo shows the huge cougar caught by four hunters using Willys Trucks and Wagons.
John spotted this video. There aren’t any jeeps, but there is some off road action in 1930s Fords. A fun video to watch.
“This evocative film from the early 1930s takes the viewer on a journey from Land’s End to John O’Groats, giving them to opportunity to see all manner of Ford vehicles from that period in action. This includes Ford Populars and V8s through to trucks, tractors and even boats — all using Ford engines. We see some impressive off-road action alongside nostalgic views of the British countryside along the way.”
