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 $4000
This appears highly modified.
“302 ford v-8 ford truck trans new jeep transfer dana 44 axel.”
This is a nice looking truck with a low mileage engine.
“
1951 Willys-Overland station wagon, 31,200 miles on the engine. Originally from Colorado used for every day driving. Has a Flathead 6, 3 speed with overdrive column shift. Very solid body, recently finished the headliner inside, there’s a small crack on the rear driver side window, and the speedometer gave out this August. I drive about 200 miles a month on it. if you have questions feel free to call or email me. (734) 731-4353 . It’s ready to drive home to a new owner I’m just tired of this wagon and need a new classic to drive.”
Less than $1000 for a running truck with a plow blade. Looks like a deal.

It’s a project.
“Up for auction is my 1949 Willys Jeep CJ3A. This is a project that I just don’t have time for, due to Deployments. This Jeep runs, the tranny shifts, and the 4 wheel drive works. I do give a guarantee. Just hook up some fuel and a battery this baby will start. I discarded the body because it was too far gone to repair. You can order the body and practically every part for this Jeep through companies like Kaiser Willys. I have purchased a new grill and steering wheel along with other misc. parts. The window frame is in OK shape and will need new glass, it’s flat and will be easy to replace. All this Jeep needs is to be sand blasted painted and ready for body. I will help in the shipping process, I would consider delivering within 250 miles of Fort Campbell KY for 1.00 per mile. I also have a V8 conversion kit for this Jeep if interested. Happy Bidding please e-mail or call me @ 910-309-1623 for questions.”
UPDATE: price dropped to $3800. Unsure if it is still Available.
(09/06/09) It looks good and straight. The price is looking pretty good.
“Fires right up & runs/drives great. New tires, trans rebuilt, new clutch. I have a brand new (correct) COMPLETE windshield assy (minus glass, but w/all weatherstripping) and a brand new (correct) tailgate that will go with the sale. I also have NOS gauges, tail light, front markers. Clean title.
Also interested in trades, depending on what you’ve got. Car/truck/classic/Jeep/OHV – let me know & we’ll talk about it. Not interested in basket cases or projects with a long way to go though. (Trailer not included in sale). ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $350
“1959 Willys Jeep, cab over, 4×4, good for parts or project. mostly complete, not running, no title. $400,”
I found the image below on eBay. The bidding has ended, but I”m sure it will return. I thought it looked very similar to Brian’s CJ-3B (or former CJ-3B — did you ever sell it?). After located a pic of the CJ-3B, I concluded it must have been used as the model of the drawing.
One image below is the drawing and one is a shot of the CJ-3B from the CJ-3B page (See more pics of it there — It’s a beauty!).
According to an old ebay listing, this particularly drawing is a run of 250 prints of a drawing by artist Duke Edwards. I didn’t know who Duke Edwards was, so I did a google search and found the information below from the ‘Automotive Art Gallery‘.
“Duke has been “doodling” for almost 40 years but had limited his clientele to friends and local car clubs. Since making his work available to the public, he has received international recognition and has pieces on museum display as well as in private collections. For just “doodling” Duke is amazingly talented.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4100
“New Aluminum CJ3A JEEP body on a new 1973 CJ5 powder coated frame. This frame allows the use of a V8 engine. Powder coated Dana 44 rear, Dana 30 front, and Dana 300 Transfer case, are geared for the new tires installed on the polished aluminum wheels. A complete new power disc brake system is still in the boxes. New parts include a new fuel cell, fuel line, wiring harness, body mounts and suspension parts. All the parts for this project cost over $17,000, not including the powder coating, windshield frame and original front grill. I don’t even want to think about how much was spent on powder coating parts. I will offer delivery within a reasonable distance. Call for a list of all the new parts included with this offer. May trade. Call me with what you have.”
UPDATE: Here’s some before and after pics from when Jim owned this jeep. This is one of Jim’s vehicles that he rebuilt. This is likely no longer for sale.
This includes a roll cage that can be bolted in or taken out (as it is in the picture).
“1960 Willys jeep CJ5, original condition. Stock 4-cylinder, 3-speed manual, high and low range transfer
case. Full locker axles front and back. Has lock out hubs. Yes I’m sure it can out climb a Billygoat.
Beautiful full canvas top with canvas doors. Full roll cage that can bolt in or out. Working tailgate with chains. 16 inch wheels with beautiful 7.50-16 agressive 10 ply tires that really make the look. Fuel and water cans on the back. Axe and shovel also. High lift jack on the front bumper. I have a complete new stock exhaust system not installed yet. Nothing really wrong with the exhaust that is on it now though….”
I like this one for those rear tractor tires. It ran two years ago!

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
This ad has the longest series of keywords that I have ever seen — longer than the Ad itself. That said, the jeep itself might be a reasonable price given it drives.
“i have for sale this 1948 jeep cj2a. it has a chevy 327 with all factory drive train other than that. it runs and drives has a high seat for hunting and has gun racks and it has a brush guard on front and a removable deer rack on rear . it is a 3 speed (t90) with a twin stick dana 18 transfer case it does run and drive but needs minor things if you wanted to make it street legal. i bought this for myself and am only selling because i got a great deal on another one and i dont need 2 so it needs to go i have a set of nice rims and tires that are not on it but will go with it . runs and drives, brakes work headlights work has 2 gas tanks with a selector switch. gauges work. would make a great hunting rig or spend some time and fix it up for the street”

This appears to be a custom combo MBM38A1 body. I wonder whether the seller knows it or not.
“1942 Willys MB 4×4 WWII model. The body looks rough but is adequate for hunting or farm use. It has had the windshield glass, gas tank, and one rear axle replaced. It has good tires. The engine, transmission, transfer case and drive train are all original as far as I know and all work well. The engine runs great. The alternator needs to be replaced. I have always charged the battery and use it as long as it lasts. We can discuss delivery. 512-446-2382.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
It’s got a couple rust spots, but sure takes a good picture.
“YOU ARE BIIDDING ON A RARE WILLYS JEEP OVERLAND WOODY WAGON LOW RESERVE, MECHANICALLY 100%.

Updates will occur infrequently tonight in-between Nazi Zombie sessions tonight (Karson’s visiting 🙂 )
Well, the price is good for a running jeep (well, was running before removing the transmission), but ‘it’s all original except for the engine’? Yeah, right …
“I have for sale a 1952 Jeep Willys M38 that is all original except the motor.This jeep is a project! It doe’s run though,I’ve been driving it around while working on it.It does have a problem with the transmission,so I removed it to be repaired,and found that it just had a bad input shaft bearing & never had the time to finish it.The four wheel drive is good also.Just need the money right now, so all reasonable

I ran across this ad for brand new corner diamond plating. The seller is charging $58 for the pair, plus shipping. My initial search suggests this is a great price.
“Here I have a set (left & right) of brand new Jeep cj5Aluminum diamond plate corner guards. They will fit cj5 & willies Jeeps. I have also have some of my customers use them on there 1940s and up CJ2A jeeps.. The corner guards measure 16″ x 24″ . The thickness on these corners are strong 14 gauge and are made in the USA .. These are great for Dressing up your Jeep and protecting it at the same time. They are also great for covering body damage or rust. The corners are pre-bent so they will go on nice & easy with the supplied self-tapping stainless steel screws to fasten the corner guards to your Jeep ….”
