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 .
It runs and drives. Can’t see much from the pic, but it looks stock.
“Military Jeep. willys. 1953 M38a1. This awesome jeep is all original with gun mount and bo lights . It runs and drives. some rust on the floor and needs a little work on rear quarter panel but nothing bad. Awesome off roader or hunting rig. I will post pics later. 503-593-9451”

UPDATE: **SOLD**. Was listed at $600.
It runs and I see no rust.
“Runs good
you may call
please no text messages or calls after 8pm”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5200
It’s not a perfect restoration, but might be worth a look.
“F/S: 1946 Willy’s CJ2-A $5,200
This Jeep runs and drives excellently. It has new wheels and tires, fuel tank, master brake cylinder, and a 12 volt battery conversion (much more reliable than the old 6 volt systems). The Jeep has fresh oil, brake fluid, clean oil/air filters, new spark plugs, and freshly packed grease fittings.
The Jeep is a blast to drive. The 4×4, in combination with the big tires and small wheelbase, makes it a beast off-road. The “Go Devil” four cylinder motor is true to its reputation as being reliable and powerful. Also, it has a Power Take Off in the rear that can be used to power farm equipment like a generator, wood splitter, or winch. A working PTO is a rare option to find in these Jeeps.
Overall, this is an excellent old jeep. Keep in mind, though, it is almost 70 years old. It is great for cruising around town, back roads, or off-roading, but it can’t do highways. It can be driven home locally, but I would recommend transporting it over far distances. Transportation can be arranged through me for a serious buyer.
*The headlights and one brake light recently stopped working, but I have the parts to fix them and I hope to have it done before selling it.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
The body doesn’t look like a M-38 tub. It’s missing the fuel inlet. Maybe it’s a mb/gpw tub?
“CA registered till dec 2013 jeep. 231 v6 with long flow headers. 3 speed with twin stick and warn overdrive. new best top tiger top cost $900. full roll cage jeep is complete and is a true m38 tub. I am 3rd owner since it was bought from government. low miles . has tow bar. great hunting rig and eye turner.”
Eric is looking for a 2A radiator and shroud. He’s in Virginia. You can email him at sundial@swva.net
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
This still needs some work. The brakes aren’t quite ‘right’.

UPDATE: Sold on eBay for $8000.
This seller calls this a M606 styled CJ-3B. It appears in good shape.
“Very nice, original unrestored 1964 Willys CJ3B in the service skin of the Vietnam war period. These jeeps (last of the Willys Flat Fenders) were sent by the hundreds to Vietnam They were not used tactically by the U.S but in security roles and staff duty vehicles in garrison around Saigon ect.
This vehicle in in very authentic configuration as the 3Bs put into service during that war.
Original condition with no rust or rust repairs ever..
The 134 F head motor powers this vehicle, transfer case and lockouts operate perfectly. There is a chipped tooth on the 1st/reverse gear that makes
a noise in 1st and reverse but does not effect the performance of the vehicle.
It has a military canvas top and windshield cover.
I am the 3rd owner, the 2nd owner was the original owners son who took possession of the vehicle only 4 years ago just before I purchased it.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $700.
Tony has this motor for sale. It last powered a 1946 CJ-2A.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
(03/14/2013) This may be a good price if the suspension was modified to crazily.

(01/19/2013) This has some interesting rims. You might check to see if this has a title before driving out.
“THIS IS FOR A 1948 CJ2A RANCH JEEP. HAS BEEN USED ON THE RANCH FOR 40 YEARS. A NEW CRATED F – HEAD ENGINE WAS PUT IN THE JEEP YEARS AGO. EXTRA PARTS ARE 2 TOW BARS, GEAR BOXES, 4 USED TIRES ON RIMS, AND OTHER MISCELLANEOUS PARTS.”
You don’t see a DJ-3A (albeit modified) show up on a t-shirt too often! I spotted this shirt in several Moab t-shirt shops.
UPDATE: on Paul’s project:
Paul has continued to complete work on his project. He shared these links and photos for your view pleasure:

Nate’s simple reasoning for installing two carbs on his L-Head (I had two YF carbs and plenty of time) belies his good understanding of how why the carbs add more power (see his explanation in the thread comments). As usual, very nice work Nate!

Nate’s buddy is looking for a good L-134 block for his jeep. If you think you have something, email Nate at bolducn20@aol.com. You might remember Nate from the CJ-3A projects he has tackled.
“I am looking for a flat head 4 cyl 134 cubic inch engine for a Willys jeep, mainly a good block for a CJ2A, 3A, MB, ect. Will buy either a complete engine or just a block.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This is a beautifully detailed Jeepster.

“1946 Willys Jeep. NO Top included, Well maintained, Runs and drives if as new. Rims and Tires look brand new.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This has no title. It runs.
“This 1947 Jeep Willys was purchased in 1986 and has no title. it does however have a colorado VIN inspection and was cleared. it can be titled in any state … just needs some paperwork done. the VIN inspection and a bill of sale which i will provide. it was used very little for hunting on private roads so it wasnt titled in colorado. it was a project my grandfather wanted to do 25 years ago. it runs great has a Buick V6 231. it has chevrolet steering. the brakes work … just need to be bled as it has been sitting in a shed for some years now but i have been running it and with some TLC it will be a very nice vehicle again. we have a spare tire for it but it was flat so it is at the repair shop now being fixed.”
This appears in great shape, though the pics aren’t the best.

Lots of mods on this crawler.

Fronts are factory cut the rear are cut to clear mud faster. It has twin stick transfer. I just put 500 in new parts as in battery brake calipers, new nuts for spindles and new front brake pads. Plus all the new Gage’s and switches. This is fully caged all the way to frame. Geared very low low enough you can walk next to it. It has a 318 with auto trans there is no 1st gear in trans but you don’t need it at all with the gearing it has racing seats and 2sets of seat covers. Much much more. Asking 6500. That’s jeep look for a built buggy like this they’re going for 9000 and up. Call or txt 812/604/4845. The rear is air controlled as in height wise. It’s alot of fun.”
http://evansville.craigslist.org/cto/3694358829.html
UPDATE: Was $5000. Status Unknown.
The rear has been lengthened. However, unclear when this mod was completed. There have been other mb/gpws with lengthened rears. However, the bench seat are definitely an eyesore.
“Take a gander at what I have here………..The previous owner did a nice custom job adding 16″ to the overall length with bench seats!!! This one of a kind Ford GPW jeep has a Kaiser Supersonic flat head 4 cyl that runs and drives. This is an awesome trail buggy/ two-tracker ( and summer is right around the corner) or a nice rare find for someone who wants to restore an original one. I have the original title from the first owner when he bought it in 1962.
Serious inquiries, equal trades, and reasonable offers will be pondered, looking for black rifles, Kalashnikovs, Ammo, a nice motorcycle who knows”
Hard to say how much value is here.
“Box Frame
Complete Original Drive Train
Brand new front fenders (2)
New Tailgate
New windshield frames (inside and outer frames)

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
I’m gonna guess that was a VEC CJ-2A body. It’s rough.
“1956 Willy’s Jeep. Has all the parts on it, except the steering wheel. Would be a great project, motor needs to be gone through. Bought it for $3,000 for my son, he went with a truck instead now I need it gone. Willing to take a lose on it, $2,000 is a great deal.”
