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: **SOLD** Was $1500.
No pics verify this is a CJ-6, but there looks to be parts value. Seller is uncertain about title.
“1956 jeep cj 6 runs and drives have ny registration guess that’s like a title for up there will trade for mason dump”
There’s value here.
“Engine was pulled in 1988-1990 for a rebuild and never made it back in. As far as I know, the trans/axles are still in good working condition, just have been sitting covered in the driveway since then. Frame has some serious rust issues around the front leaf spring rear mount. Hubs turn freely, as does the input shaft of the trans.
Pulled the body off this week as I am building a new frame from 2×3″ and dropping in a fuel injected 2.3 Ford/m5od and a set of YJ axles, so it’s better if I just start fresh.“

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500. This is likely a 2A body and chassis. The rear full floating axles could be military or an update to the 2A axles.
“Old Jeep, No Drivetrain. Has both front and rear axles, but no engine or transmission. Former owner started converting to small block Chevy, got as far as losing powertrain and torching motormounts out of frame. (yes, an idiot)
Your turn to make something like a sand buggy or rock crawler out of this. NO TITLE, Bill of sale with the serial number on it from me to you.”
UPDATE: Was $3500. *SOLD**
“Solid body w/no rust but not perfect . Mid 80s GM iron dukes 4 motor , run excellent . Rebuilt carburetor. New master cylinder , brakes are in very good shape . Good BF mud terrain tires. Smittybilt winch. Brand new tow bar . Has late 70s jeep rear and front end. This was updated right, make it a lot better on the road , cruise 60 mph no problem , you’d be rebuilding the original flat heads if you tried that . Home made bikini top . No trades”

Runs and drives, but needs brakes. If you email, put “Red CJ6” in the subject line.

I found this illustration of a Rube Goldberg (yes, of the Rube Goldberg machines) drawn jeep from the September 1946 issue of Mechanix Magazine. I’m not quite sure what the UNO on the grille means.
Below is the full page: Continue reading
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Steve found this cool photo. It shows Milwaukee Brewer outfielder Johnny Price putting on a pre-game exhibition of catching balls using a jeep. The local dealer, Laurel C. Worman, arranged the event.
“This is an original press photo. Photo measures 10 x 8.25inches. Photo is dated 08-17-1945.”
Marc forwarded this article and photo that highlights the use of helicopters with jeeps.

Daniel Flanagan is located in the UK and is hoping to find a MB or GPW project. If anyone thinks they have a project that would interest him or think they can help out, email me or comment below and I’ll hook you up with him.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Looks solid. It’s got the wrong grille for a ’46, but that’s minor.
“Own a piece of postwar history! This restored CJ2-A is ready to parade the streets of your neighborhood. I have been the curator of this rolling museum for over a decade and due to some recent life changes, it is now time to pass the baton. As with any old Jeep there is always something to tinker with; but this Willys is road ready. Please call or text with questions. Thank you for looking.”
Looks in great shape.
