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 .
Earlier this year, Greg reported that a MB and trailer sold at a Mecum for $32,000. Now he has the pics to prove it. That’s dedication! 🙂
HOG spotted this setup. It might interest someone …
“This is an old army trailer we have. Currently there is an old Onan generator bolted inside the bed. I can remove the generator if you aren’t interested in buying that.
One trailer tire is flat. It may hold air when we fill it. This has the rotating pintal hitch.
Floor seems solid. The tailgate is pretty rough. I will email my phone number, if you resond to the ad. I do not have a title for this. Delivery can be made for a reasonable fee, but you must inspect and pay for the item first. Roy.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $600.
The seller thinks is a’56, which would suggest it is a DJ-3A.

“1953 but title says 1943. Has a 302 that was installed and I sold the fenders and grille that was cut for that engine. So now it has the right grille and hood but not cut so the radiator is not installed since I did not want to cut a hard to find jeep part. They only made this jeep from 51 to 53. It does have a M38 top with data plates for the top. Top is something we can deal on and does not go with the jeep. I paid $400 for the top. And the top fits 2A’s and 3A’s. The engine runs. I ran it before I removed the radiator and other grille. Sounded good. I do have the master cylinder for the brakes which is why I never drove it. Has the wrong hood since the M38 hood should have the snorkel and jumper openings on the passenger side of the hood. Body needs a lot of welding and the back wheel wells have seperated on the drivers side since the previous owner did not weld it and just used bondo and fiberglass to keep it together. Its not a lost cause but does need a lot of work. I may have a 4 cylinder which is not a M38 that we can deal on but it needs rebuilt. All in all with some spot welds and brake fixed and radiator installed it could drive. I just have too many projects and not enough time. I would consider partial trade for hunting items or a small trailer that can haul trash and my large 4 wheeler. Something with larger tires and newer with a ramp. As I said the top and 4 cylinder are something we can deal on. This is a rare jeep of the Korean era.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2800.
“This is a 1951 Willys truck that I bought as a project, but after a divorce and being a single parent, I find I don’t have the time or money to fix it up. It currently runs, but as with all old cars, could always use some work. It is currently registered till February. Does not have the original motor trans or rear end, they were converted before I bought it. It has a Dodge 225 slant 6 motor and trans, and a chevy rear end. There is noticeable rust/cancer on both front fenders and along the drip rail molding, and I suspect there is some in the bed, but it has been painted over. I also have a chevy 350 with a 4 bolt main, that I had intended to put in this truck, that I will sell with the truck. Please only contact me if you are serious.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500.
“This is a classic 1961 Willys Jeep Pickup Truck. Good running condition, great utility use! Rebuilt Ford-302 V8 Engine (with only about 2,000 miles). 4-Wheel Drive with Overdrive Transmission. New Tires and Brakes. Asking: $5,500.”
This appears in good shape.

UPDATE: Dexter forwarded some pics he received. This is pretty beat up. It was originally listed as a MB, however I think this is a mix of parts. The seller wants $800.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000
(09/09/2010) The seller says it is 1953, but it appears to have a CJ-2A body on it.

This appears to have a later model rear end and windshield. What’s that stick out the rear passenger’s side?

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800
(07/01/2009) This has a fiberglass tilt front clip and a fiberglass body. It could use a paint job at the very least.
“This willys has a fiberglass body w/ tilt front end, 350 4 bolt main, 350 turbo transmission auto. w/ 4wd , power brakes,power steering, tilt steering wheel, stewart warner gauges.”
This looks pretty solid.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000
(01/24/2010) It’s a bit dirty, but sounds like it’s in solid shape.
“-I have had it for about a year and a half i put a 4in lift and 34in super swamper ltb tires
-it has a 327 with ported heads, oversized cam, edelbrock carb and intake, newer distributer plugs and wires
-the tranny is a muncie 4 speed out of a 68 camaro, stock transfer case with the warn overdrive lever ( it has 4 shifters total)
-it has stock axles with 5.38 gears
I drive it down the freeway at 60mph and there isnt any shake to it. it has never broke down on me and runs very strong and has more than enough power (i have pulled the front tires off the ground a few times). I have taken it wheelin and it does great but the body has zero dents in it and absolutely no rust what so ever. The only difference from the pics is i put black wheels on it and painted the diamond plate corners black. The paint is in good shape but it does have scratches in the paint. I am sking 4300obo and will consider trades for 95 or newer honda or something like it.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $900.
(11/07/2010) This still has a little VEC left. SN# 14901.
“I have a project cj2a. It ran a little over a year ago when we started to take it apart to have the body redone. It needs new floor panels. The body and frame match numbers. I have everything for it. I personally just ran out of time. It is at the point where my mom wants it out of our garage. The frame motor trans are in great shape. The fenders are good and the windshield has good glass. It is #14901. Great project. I am asking 900 cash. I would consider partial trades but need at least 600 cash with the trade.”
This looks like it has an updated grille and windshield at the very least. It also has a rear PTO.
“1946 Willys Jeep transmission and motor rebuilt, pto. 5,995.00 obo Call Wally for more info 941-276-0393.”
