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 on eBay2000.
Andy’s got this parts or project for sale.
“Late 40s willys CJ2a. Fair condition but complete. Good source of parts or restore. Sorry no title just bill of sale thanks and check out my other CJ‘s for sale”
I just purchased this Tour Jeep postcard off of eBay that shows an FC-170 tour jeep in the Virgin Islands in 1968. I searched for additional information on FC jeeps in the Virgin Islands, without success.
Back in 1987 (like 10 lifetimes ago!) I toured St. Thomas in a tiny Suzuki Samarai and in the back of a taxi. The FC would have been a much cooler way to see the island.
The Clemson 4-Wheeler Center shared this vintage 1978 Hinkle’s brochure. Hinkle’s billed themselves as the world’s largest jeep dealer.
The center seats shown on page 9 for the CJs was something I don’t think I’ve seen. I also thought it was interesting that the company listed X-style and PCV-style Desert Dogs, but not the standard type.
Tom shared this rebuilt CJ-5. I haven’t seen an early KS speedometer with that tall of bezel (outer circle). Maybe it is the light color of the outer ring that is throwing me off.

“This is a jeep FC 170 flatbed truck, these are very rare. Unfortunately this one is in rough shape, I bought it years ago planning to fix it up and its only become a yard ornament so its gotta go. The frame is solid but everything else is very rotten. The motor is not original it is a chevy engine but not sure what model. It would need to be towed on a flat bed, does not run.”
Has a Chevy powertrain.
“Jeep FC170 with chevy drivetrain (305, th350, divorce tcase np205?) Frame is the best I have seen on these old jeeps besides the crossmembers being cut up by a previous owner. But is rusty but it’s straight and solid enough to weld and repair. Comes with some extra body panels from a parts cab to get you started. Good glass all the way around. Engine turns over, but needs a new starter. Was told it runs but I cannot confirm. $2500 Firm Maine, delivery available, hold only with $250/week Deposit.”

2) This is on Flickr. Apparently, this photo was taken at the Le May Museum, but we never saw it there.

UPDATE: Price dropped to $2500.
Thanks to Andy for sharing this one. It has a PTO, rear gearbox, and a drum pulley. The shackles are on the front of the front springs, so this might not be a 1955. This appears to have early Husky hubs.

“1955 Jeep Willy’s with PTO runs and drives . Pro works as well”
Unclear how much value is here.

“RESTORATION PROJECT
Shown by Appointment
PRICE IS FIRM”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
(11/23/2021) Seller is listing this as an FC-150, but it looks to me like an FC-170.
“Project Willys Jeep
Flathead 6 cylinder engine runs good” 
Bill shared this fascinating video of a CJ-6 owner in Pakistan attempting to find a part to fix his jeep so he can ferry goods and passengers along a dangerous rode towards a land-locked village in the mountains of Pakistan.
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $7500.
Appears worth a look.
“Willys Overland. CJ3B.
3-speed manual,
4-wheel drive
No rust.
Clean title.
Origina.
Tires are good.
It starts and runs good.
Many extra parts available.
Rolling chases with motor and transmission available”
The seller also lists prices for buying them separately. The 2A is listed as a 1952, but it looks to have some 2A attributes, such as the radiator, so the year may be incorrect (Or it is a 2A+3A).
https://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ram/cto/d/saint-paul-jeeps/7549428180.html
“2 Jeeps, 1-1952 CJ2A $3800, and 1- 1952 M38A1 $6200, both have many many new parts, I got them both and were not running, my goal was to get them running whicih I did, now it’s time for someone else to take them to the next level, both start, run and drive, would take $9500 for both,”
