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: Price dropped to $1300

Located in El Monte, Ca, on Rosemead between 10 and 60 frwys in Los Angeles, the American Society of MIlitary History Museum is has been preserving vehicles since 1962 and is a California Non-Profit Educational Organization. The museum has 178 vehicles, including tanks, jeeps and more.
Brian shot these pics, with his father and son shown in the image below. He reports that the museum has some really cool military stuff and was a great place to visit. He also notes that the owner, Craig, could use volunteers to help restoring the vehicles. Thanks Brian!

This looks like a solid Willys, but I can’t quite see it as a “great work of art”.

“Price is for both. Have titles. One has a Willys tail gate. More than enough parts to build one running truck with lots left over. Contact me for more information.”
Both need work.
“Two (2) 1960 vintage Willys Jeep Pick up trucks.Trucks are both in need of restoration, and 1 motor runs very well, the other we have not tried to start. Both trucks were purchased to aide in the restoration of another 1956 Willys truck but the extra parts were not needed.
The Green truck has a GMC box on it and the Blue truck is the original jeep bed. The Blue truck has the nice running motor.
There is another Jeep Willys pick up box that can go along with these trucks.
If you have any questions just send me an e-mail and I will reply.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800
This is a column shift. This might be worth a look.

This appears solid.
“I am selling a 1947 willys cj2a jeep. The jeep is in great shape with very few dents and there is hardly any rust in the jeep. the floors are solid and in good shape. The jeep has 5 new military 600-16 tires, has new carburetor, fuel pump and all the fluids in the jeep have been replaced. The motor was rebuilt several years ago and runs great. transmission shifts through all the gears and 4×4 works good also. Jeep has a nice snow plow on it along with a set of chains.

“1962 willis jeep needs gas tank to run phone ”
No pics provided and needs some work.
“The older brother to the other CJ2A I am selling, this one is titled and under non-op status. It is also nearly complete but needs to be gone through stem to stern to make it road worthy. It has a few rust issues, unlike its brother. My intentions were to build one but they are both so good, each deserves a new life. I can send photos. If you buy both, plus all the extra stuff listed in the other ad, I’ll toss in a Postal jeep frame, an extra CJ2A frame needing only minor work, an extra bell housing and transmission housing and transfer case housing, gas tank, and other odds and ends all for $5000. That would give you a great start on a fleet of CJ2As!”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $2200.

Bill forwarded this MB/GPW. There have been a few updates on this. I didn’t know there were lighters in WWII jeeps! That must have been handy for keeping their cell phones charged, too.

I’ve seen the name ‘Willys’ murdered, but maybe never as badly as this seller has. The title for the ad is “1941 jeep wyllis”
“exellent condition call for info or text 805 861 81 36”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
Don’t worry, this had a fresh rebuild when parked.
“its a 1947 willy’s jeep its been sitting for a while motor is complete its the flat head 4 cylinder and only had 10 miles on a fresh rebuild when it was parked, also i believe it is already converted to a 12 volt style alternator. has a manual transmission with a twin stick transfercase only thing that was wrong with it when it was parked was it was grinding going into gears because the clutch was not engaging properly, needed adjustment. does not run but shouldnt take much to get it goin
not sure what it is worth in this condition will ask 2000 OBO do not be afraid to make a cash offer or trade offer will consider anything interesting…”
