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 $300
Some old desert dogs on the front and old terras on the rear. The rims with the terras look pretty good. Given those additions, I wonder if the drive train was upgraded with anything like posi.
“project JEEP frame was sand blasted. some rust some rust already fixed. no motor, trans, tcase. nice rims with 31-15.50-15 terra tires.”
UPDATE: Status unknown. Was avaialable for $1200.
This might be a good deal.
“1954 Willy all original except Chevy 350 motor. Been sitting all year and hard to start. Will need carb cleaning. When running everything works great. Make offer, leave number.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $250
There’s some value in the parts.
“I bought this from an acquaintance who needed the money. It would make a cool project, but not for me. I’m from the west where this kind of rust means the vehicle is long gone. Since moving here I’ve heard people describe this condition as “restorable” or “just a lot of surface rust”. Yeah, except both sides of each surface have rusted to form holes. It ran as of a year ago when I parked it here in the weeds, but while taking pictures I noticed the carb has been uncovered all year. It has push button start, and sounded like it was running on 3 of 4 cylinders when it ran. Plenty of blue smoke to entertain the neighbors with.
Before too long it will get hauled to the salvage yard, it’s worth $250 in steel to me, hence the price. But I’d rather see it go to someone who’ll use it or at least parts of it. I have a clear title from 1989. Brake line is missing, carb leaks fuel. It might be handy for some extra parts though, the grill and hood are decent, and there’s an extra grill included. It also has the PTO drive included. I have no idea if it’s complete, I just know I have a small steel pan with gears in it that bolts to the underside to run a PTO. I also have the original Willys tailgate, which would make a better garage decor than a tailgate because of rust. But it looks cool. The tires in the back are from my Ranger, they are about the same size as the Jeep’s and in better condition, they’ll go with the Jeep also.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2300.
This might be a good price.

This includes an overdrive and appears in great shape.
“1953 willys nice tires wheels 4 cyl 3 speed overdrive runs good needs paint”
It’s still 24 volt and probably pretty stock all around (except for the seats and center console). Looks like a good price.

It appears solid.
“Runs great, all original, great collectors item, nice condition, DONT PASS UP THIS DEAL, GOING FAST HURRY CALL FOR MORE DETAILS!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2700.
(Apr 4, 2009) My first inclination is that this is an M-38 body due to the cutouts on the passenger side. However, there’s no opening for the gas tank on the driver’s side. So, I’m gonna guess this might be an aftermarket body replacement. There are interesting shutoff valves on the rubber tubing that feeds water towards the heater core. Not sure what they are for. There was an Overdrive with this, but maybe it was sold?
“1946 Willys CJ-2A, Buick V-6, 4-speed, Dana 18 transfer case, power steering, soft top and doors, heater, newer seats front and rear, newer fuel tank, chrome rims with 31 inch all terrains. $3000 or trade. More vehicle features: 2 Door; Four Wheel Drive; Manual Transmission; Dana 44 Rear; Full Size Spare; Locking Hubs; Oversize Fuel Tank; Oversized Tires; Roll Bars.”
UPDATE: Was priced at $2500.
This might be a good price. Note the seller mentions the paint isn’t very good.
“New plugs/wires/cap/rotor/points runs great!Lights/blinkers/wipers work.Newer seat covers in great shape.Newer headliner sagging in spots.New 7.50×16″military non directional tires on 16″ pickup rims with a original 15″Goodyear military tire on original yellow rim as spare(original owners manual shows vehicle with this style of tire)Bad paint job over original paint.Very complete as far as original bits.New tailights and headlight rings and grill pieces.4 wheel drive works.Spent most of my time cleaning the vehicle up and finding correct items and installing some new wiring.Needs a parking brake cable and a fix on the heater.Definetly a attention getter.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This is listed as a 1949 CJ-2A, but this appears to be a DJ-3A (note the dash and the front bumper for starters). The VIN number is particularly strange, as it looks like it has two different type of numbers. Note how the 2nd set of numbers is very light and of a different font than the first set of numbers. Something seems amiss to me.

Here’s a pic of the VIN Plate.
And a couple other pics
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $900
Here’s a wagon down the road from me that needs work.
“1951 willlys wagon project. Not running. Includes extra parts.”
