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 $4000.
It’s got some dents, but it appears solid.
“Willys Jeep 1950, This is a great jeep with some TLC it would look great, all running gears work and purrs like a kitten. New soft top and seats are not ripped. No rust area that I could see.
some body dings but for a Jeep that is 63 years old it is in great shape, this is a flat fender jeep and well worth the price.
If you have questions please ask or better pics ask for what you want to see.”
Several people sent me a link to the Hemmings article. The seller is claiming the jeep was a crate jeep. The notes by the folks that commented underscore my feelings.

UPDATE II: A seventh Deliver-All is located in Morris, Illinois, at the True North shop (see on Google).
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800. Since this was sold I’ve gathered additional information on the Deliver-All. The video below shows the jeep engine and what may be a T-90. A custom(?) transferase was adapted to the back of the transmission to provide front wheel drive.
Here’s an ad that’s currently on eBay as of 07/22/16:
Photo from Pinterest of 1946 Marmon-Harrington Deliver-All van:
A good example of the logo:
This was the original ad from 2013:
“1947 Marmon Herrington DelivR All step/delivery van. Only 6 [Ed note: now 7 as of 2019] known to exist. This truck has sat for 25 years but the engine still runs. check out youtube video. look up 1947 Marmon deliver All. The truck is front wheel drive with independant rear suspension. It is powered by a 4 cyl willys engine and a 3 speed manual trans axle. There is some rust issues but not what you would expect for a midwest vehicle that was stored outside. Somebody converted it to a popcorn/ Cheese curd vending vehicle some time ago. No Title but have previous registration cards so that one can get a replacement title.
I bought this truck to make a hotrod out of it and put a late model driveline in it. When I found out how rare it is I thought I would alow the purists out there a chance at owning and restoring it. If not I will proceed with my Hot Rod Plans. Speak now or forever hold your peace. ”

On Wednesday we spent the day touring Hershey.
It’s not clear to me why the passenger sits so low in the Crosley.
We started out our morning in Hershey, Pennsylvania, by driving to the Antique Automobile Club of America’s museum (aka: AACA). It was Brian who first suggested we visit it. The museum is actually two museums, the AACA’s collection uses the upper two floors and the Museum of Bus Transportation is on the bottom floor.
The outside of the AACA Museum / Museum of Bus Transportation.
The Kissmobile was gone when we left the museum, so I was glad we stopped for a picture before we went inside.
The contrast between the two museums was interesting. The AACA’s exhibits are highly crafted. The volume of vehicles they show isn’t large, but each car is is placed within a context. Even the colors seemed coordinated with the backgrounds. Here are some pics of the AACA.
Matt alerted me to a man named “Metcalf” from Pirate 4×4 who is “documenting his 2000 mile round trip in his flatty. 1000 miles up, 4 days of wheeling, 1000 miles home”. Anyone willing to travel 1000 miles through Utah, Idaho, Montana and Colorado at a top speed of 53mph is a brave man indeed! Note the picture below. That’s the jeep outside Moab. I wish I’d thought of that!

Kyle Butcher has launched a new jeep club. He asked me to share that information:

ANYONE IS WELCOME TO JOIN AND PARTICIPATE IN EVENTS. THIS IS BASED OFF OF PRE 1970 JEEPS AND EVENTS ARE DESIGNED FOR THOSE VEHICLES.
I was looking through some pictures related to this post and spotted this CJ-3A with a Jeep-a-Trench and snow plow in a wrecking yard in Santa Rosa, CA. I don’t know if it is for sale, but it might be. It’s no wonder the back tires are flat!
UPDATE: Was listed at $10,000. Status Unknown.
$6000 for the jeep and $4000 for the winch. As best as I can tell, the winch looks WWII to me.
“Very nice 1946 Jeep Willys CJ2A 1st year for the civilian jeep with authentic WWII Braden Capstan winch. Runs great has 18,000 miles pretty much all original. Has sat in a barn for most of its life. Minimal rust nothing to worry about. 3 speed manual tranny. 4X4 works great. Comes with 2 tops and 1 set of doors. This jeep is a blast to drive you can fold the windshield down or leave it up. The winch is a fully operational and genuine WWII equipment. Asking $10,000.00 complete or will seperate if you just want the jeep or winch. $6,000.00 for the jeep and $4000.00 for the winch.”
The body looks nice on this rebuilding wagon.
