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 $2500
This looks like a good price.
“1947 JEEP, 4cyl flathead, runs great, has headlights that work, 12volt, first 2500 takes away, clear title”
UPDATE: **SOLD**Was $2500.
This may be worth a look if the serial number really is #11936.
“CJ2A S#11936 ENGINE S#GPA-8864 (ANFIB ?) NEW TIRES NEW GAS TANK GOOD SEATS AND BODY $2500 OBO”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5200.
This appears solid.
“What you are looking at is a rare 1954 willys cj3b jeep. It comes with a powerful PTO winch. The engine is the original engine and runs perfectly with no smoke and great oil pressure. The transmission is also perfect. The jeep has been restored. It could use 2 new rear tires. 4 wheel drive works perfectly. The jeep has no title, but I do have a bill of sales and can write another when you buy it.
New windshield
New carburetor
New paint
New spray in bed liner
New spark plug wires
New rear universal joint.”
UPDATE: Back on eBay. The new pic shows this has bow holders…. very unusual …. After pondering the dash, which looks fine, I think if I were to do the dash like this, I would tack on tabs to the back of the dash and then drop in the gauge plate so that is sat flush with the dash.
(04/27/2011) This appears to have been extensively rebuilt.
“complete rebuild 231 buick v6 motor fully syncro 4 speed transmition dana 30 front end dana 44 rear end 373 gears power stearing power breaks 11″ break everything brand new duel fuel tanks new gauges new wires serious people only!!!”
UPDATE: Was $8900. **SOLD**
Mostly stock, but not “all very stock”.
“8 year old restoration with new steel body, lives inside all winter, but outside most of the summer. Fun to drive, and a real eye-catcher. As photo’s show, all is very stock- combat rims, military tires, blackout lights, shovel, axe and rear seat.”
Plenty wrong here .. i emailed the seller to inform them they don’t have a $21k vehicle.
“No description”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500
(09/12/2011) I don’t see too many hoods bent in that shape. I suspect there is a story there …. This might be a good price.

UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was on eBay.
(05/14/2011) This will need some body work underneath. The seller includes a large number of good images.

I’ve been exploring Manhattan today by foot. One of the places I wandered through was the M&M store at Times Square. I couldn’t resist photographing the jeep display. I may or may not have more posts later tonight.
Jonas wrote me the other day telling me he’s got a rare M-606. I asked him if the Data Plate was stamped ‘M-606’ and he said it was and that the speedometer is in KMs. He’s invited me to drop by and see for myself, so I hope to report on it in early October. Thanks for sharing! Cool pics, too! I love the contrast between the sky and the trees, jeep and grass.
He wrote, “I own a actual M606 jeep made by Kaiser in 1966. This is not a military CJ3B. It was exported (to Argentina I think) and then repatriated back to the US. Or it never left, nobody knows really. But It is here now and it is pretty original with all the features unique to the M606. I have acquired a Koening winch and hard cab for it in the past month and put a set of proper traction type tires on it.”
Roberto emailed me this unusual illustration. I haven’t seen much Mahindra artwork.
Brett spotted this CJ-2A. The front turn signals are non standard, but aren’t too bad for non standard ones. Anyone know the vehicle of origin? It has an OD.

It runs …. No pics provided.

Thanks and have a good day. 303-229-0727 I don’t have text.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1400
I’m guessing the wood piled on top of this jeep indicates it doesn’t run.
“1946 Willys jeep. Rebuilt motor. Project jeep.”
That’s a MB or GPW body that might not be too bad under all that surface rust.
“46 Willys Jeep, only second year sold to civilians, V8 302, project, not running, barn find, have 2 sets of tires and wheels, one set has Dick Cepek tires, SW guages, B&M shifter. 254 729-8473 $1500. firm or trade for nice mower.”

“1946 Willys Jeep 4×4
vehicle has no title,being sold for parts, bill of sale will be given
The jeep was running when parked 8 years ago for a hub issue, the hub was pulled and never repaired and the jeep has sat in the same spot ever since(hence the trees growing up around it). Jeep does not currently run, but all drivetrain components(engine,transmission,transfer case,differentials,axles) are fine. The drivetrain is the original Willys flathead 4 cylinder,3 speed tranny, all complete. The hood,front fenders,grill,tailgate and dash are in good shape. The tub(floorboard area) is completely rusted out. The frame is badly rusted on the back half, the front half looks strong and useable. The buyer will need a trailer,ramps, and a winch to transport the jeep, we can provide some assistance with loading if necessary. If interested, please call Scott at 512-844-3218, do not email.
The tow bar in the picture is not included in the sale of the jeep and will be removed this weekend.
Thanks for looking.”
