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 .
John snapped these photos from the MAAM WWII Weekend in Reading, PA, this past weekend.

I don’t think I’ve seen anyone redo a jeep with this paint scheme.

UPDATE: This brochure sold on eBay.
I don’t know just how rare these brochures are, but this is currently priced at $93 and there’s already a bid! The vehicles were only built between 1952 and 1954, so I’m not sure there was a 1955 brochure?
“Pages: 12 (fold out)
Language; specs in English, German, Italian, French
Print code: –
Size: 27 x21 cm (10½x8½)
Condition: good (4 out of 5, if 5 is mint new). Please notice, light miscolor on front is due to photo.
Remarks: 2 clean binder holes
Ships w/ top-quality airmail at 7$ within EU (European Union) and 11$ rest of World (including US/North America) (NEVER experienced any shipment problems). Combine with 1 or more of my other auctions, and it gets quite inexpensive. Shipment will get to you within 1 week or less. If you prefer, we can also arrange special shipping.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2250.
This hasn’t run in a while, but it does have both a rare dualmatic overdrive & an even rare sticker on the dash.
“I am selling my 1950 Jeep CJ-3a, civilian model, with 52,000 miles. We are moving and it needs to be sold. It has not run in about 5 years, but my dad drove it pretty often before that. He said he needed to work on some part of the engine, but he didn’t think it was anything major. He never got around to it before he passed away. The body has a few spots of surface rust, but I went over the entire thing and there is no major rust anywhere. The body is in great shape. The seats are original and you can see that it’s been garage/barn kept for the past 20-30 years (at least). It belonged to my grandfather until his death in 1988. There is a cut-down soft top for it that covers the front seats, but it has been modified because the original top was in bad shape. I have some replacement parts that my dad collected over the years as well. I also have the title which is clear.”
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Were $3800.
Both jeeps include rare Blue Star Aluminum Tops. One jeep runs and one doesn’t. I thought these jeeps were for sale on eBay at one point.
“2 1951 Willys Jeeps, one runs, drives nice and one is complete but motor stuck. Both are all original with clear titles. Twin Valley , Minn trades ?? $3800.00 for both. Will make one nice 1951 original CJ3A Jeep with a lot of spare parts to sell.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $12,000
Seller will not ship.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $100.
The hood and hubs alone look to have value.

It runs.
“For sale 1948 Willys jeep with plow. Starts, runs, does not include battery. I have owned this jeep for 35+ years and have hauled cordwood with it and plowed my driveway.

Will accept best offer.”

The body’s been patched a bit. It’s listed as a 1948, but also listed as a CJ-3A.

Nonrunning project.
“ bought several of these cool, pug-nosed Willys Jeep FC170s, FC150s and a BUNCH of related parts to get the stuff I want/need for my own project. This one is rough, but in my opinion, restorable. I’ll sell this truck complete (with title), or will consider selling parts for the right price.
This is considered a 3/4-ton pick-up with a Dana 44 closed-knuckle front axle, and a Dana 53 rear axle. The truck rolls free (axles/brakes are NOT locked up), and the drivetrain (engine/transmission/transfer case) is still installed, although I have no idea as to the mechanical condition. Engine is the Super Hurricane inline 6-cylinder mated to a T90 3-speed manual trans.
The frame looks good on this truck, and the cab appears to be repairable, although it’s arguably rough (common for Midwest vehicles of this vintage). Someone retrofitted what appears to be a ’50s GM dash into the truck, and did a pretty good job doing so. If you’d prefer to go back to a stock dash set-up, I have interior parts available.
NOTE: Parts in the rear of the truck will be cleaned up before it’s sold.
I have a few FC170 vehicles available, along with a nice FC170 rolling frame, a couple FC cabs (one FC170, and one FC150), and lots of parts. If you’re looking for a custom project, consider putting one of these classic FC cabs on a late-model chassis, much like I’m doing with my project: http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/jeep-non-hardcore/1558953-jeep-fc170-patina-rod-mutt.html
Located in Cedar Springs, Michigan (49319), just north of Grand Rapids.”
