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 $4800.
This has some good drive train updates.

The seller also has some parts for sale too. The engine is stuck.
“Great jeep, has full aluminum top,with full doors,Sound mechanically except engine is still stuck. Cylinders look good,I suspect there may be a bad rod bearing.Think engine may be rebuild-able. Has 15 inch tires,12 volt system including generator,regulator turn signals.

The price dropped quite a bit.
“1947 Jeep runs good but needs new clutch. Sandblasted frame/tub with new primer with some surface rust. New exhaust system, new wiring.”
Here’s some a couple great pics of an early Ebro Cameador. You can view more images at http://www.angelfire.com/nb2/jeeppickups/Ebro.html.
Jeeps first started being assembled in Spain in 1952 by a company called VIASA, which means Vehículos Industriales y Agrícolas, S.A in spanish. I am not sure if VIASA ever made pickups, as I cannot find any records of them being produced. However, in the late 1970’s VIASA was absorbed into EBRO, another spanish company. The only pickup that I know of produced by EBRO was called the Campeador. It was a forward control pickup available in either single or double cab version, which was called the Duplex, as well as a van, called the Toledo/Furgon. At some time, Hotchkiss in France also produced these vehicles, but I can’t find any pictures of them. Production of these vehicles was from 1971-1985 in France. The Ebro name was discontinued in 1980.
UPDATE: This sure looks like a great price. This has likely sold.
It’s got a military grille, but the windshield appears to be a Willys.
“Runs and drives, perfect to use for hunting/trails or restore it!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
This jeep looks a little giraffeish.

That back loop looks a little low.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1300
It looks rough. Apparently, the previous owner lacked some mechanical skills …
“i have a 1952 cj3 a willys jeep for sale or trade. over all the jeep for its year its in good shape but if someone was wanting to restore to original it would take a lot but something to look cool and just a fun toy to drive and work on this is a great project. right now it does run and drive and all the doors, windows and snow plow and heat works and it has a koigin metal works hard top on it that is in great shape. the things that are wrong with it is someone put a ford 170 straight six in it and to make it fit they had to cut up the floor board and fire wall a little and they did a horrible job patching it back together but it does keep the air out for the most part. they used an advanced adapters kit to put the ford in it so about and ford with the right bellhousing will bolt up to the transmission and it is the original transmission and tranfercase. the brake master cylinder leak a little and the only other thing i can really think of that is wrong with it is the front end. i was playing around in it and i broke the front spider gears so the front axle doesnt pull but the transfercase works and everything…..”
UPDATE: Was $2300. **SOLD**
I don’t think this is running.
“1946 Jeep Willys . Had a new 4 cyl motor installed in 2005 .

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
“My jeep has been completly restored from the ground up, the frame was sand blasted and coated. The body is under coated. All the running gear has been rebuilt, the motor was rebuilt completly, it is the original motor that came in the jeep when bought new,I am the second owner. I have installed newer seats front and back, new floor mats,I built a compartment between the seats with a locking top, it has 5 – 15″ wheels with open country tires, there is a swing away stair tire rack on the back. I installed a new top, it has a built in radio and cassette player with 4 speakers. It has been driven around town and in parades.”
The serial number of 154827 suggests this is actually a 1948 not a 1949. There’s been a great deal of work and money spent on this judging from the chrome and clean lines.
” Has a Pennsylvania clear title, not a reconstructed. Vehicle is exceptionally clean, starting with the body: new all steel replica tub, front fenders, hood, grill assembly and 2-piece windshield from original vehicle. Has premium tailgate with Willy’s logo and shell has a glove box. There is no body filler on this vehicle. Paint is acrylic enamel with hardener and gloss additive, wet sanded and buffed. The color is General Motors Fleet White. Paint brand was DelStar…. Any further questions you can contact me, Mario, on my cell phone at: 412.292.6152 or email to: MarWilys@nauticom.net.”
Here’s two offroad retreads we can’t get in the United States (to the best of my knowledge). They are available from technopneu in Quebec (information courtesy of Felix at our new Quebec bureau!) & in the UK as shown below.
You can see the original post on retreads here.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1750.
It’s not a willys, but it’s unusual.
“
1984 Jeep CJ10A. runner. Produced in the US for the military only. Exported elsewhere. This one is a flightline tow tractor. Factory Nissan 3.3 litre diesel engine and auto trans. Transfer case is locked into low for heavy towing. Will move 60,000 lb loads easy. Many of the parts are interchangable with the entire CJ line. Removable top. folding window. Good interior. 2 pics are of vehicle, 3rd is an export example. No title. My plan was to do a CJ10/5/7 type of conversion/pickup etc. No time as with lots of my projects. Must go soon.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4750
“One owner since ’72; never restored, but more than maintained with everything new as needed; F-four, runs great,starts right up. All gears work fine including four wheel drive and low range gear box/shifter. Brakes and gauges work fine. Some rust on driver and passenger side step plate, under-seat storage compartments, but not as much as you would expect considering year/model. Everything in good working order;garaged since ’72;all maintenence records since ’72, fifth wheel/spare, full rain/dust cover”
I believe this has a MB Grille and windshield, but the other parts appear to be CJ-2A.
“I have a ’46 Jeep Willys MB. Everything is stock. Its been my project for quite some time. Its 4×4, flathead 4 cylinder manual 3 speed. I have done a lot of engine work. Replaced the spark plugs, spark plug wires, starter, alternator, regulator, front brakes, water pump, hoses, belts, etc.. It still needs work but the engine turns over and runs. It has a non op and i have the pink in hand. The body is straight but it needs a little bondo and paint. This is a true classic off road vehicle. I’m looking to see what else is out there for trades. I’d be interested in an older stepside or other 4×4. either project or running. If interested contact jamesw.bridges@yahoo.com”

The cage is starting to take shape. It’s only tacked together at the moment and the ‘spreader bars’ between the front and back loop are still PVC. The lower of the spreader bars isn’t at the correct angle either, but the real bar should be in by tomorrow.

Ceramic shift knobs, antique glass door knob shift knobs, pewter sand-cast shift knobs, glitter shift knobs, marbleized knobs, nostalgia knobs, vintage grenade shift knobs, skull knobs, shrunken head knobs, custom one-of-a-kind shifts knobs that are hand-painted using candies, metallics and high-end automotive finishes. You won’t find the run of the mill stuff here, folks….

“1957 willys jeep fc model 170. no bed. 350 chev in place. this requires a special plate to mount the chev engine to the jeep running gear.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4300.
The owner is selling it to buy an engagement ring.
“I have a 1946 Willys overland mb jeep. This is the military wrangler. This particular one is the first year of production of these vehicles for the publice while still implementing parts used on the military model. It is appx. 90% original with the updated 12 volt system. Tires that are less than 3 months old. There is no rust any where, and everything works. It is a perfect vehicle for driving on nice summer days, or if you have a place you can take it through the woods, you will never get stuck. It has the famous 4 cyl original Flathead motor that runs great. The suspensions and all other mechanical systems are in great shape. The 4 wheel drive will never let you down. I am only selling it to pay for an engagement ring and hopefully a wedding if everything goes to plan. I am looking to get 4300 out of it. I have spent so much time and money, but now I really need to sell. Email the post if you are interested. Or call 586 850 0853 This is a link to a youtube video I have made going around the jeep and the attached pictures should show anything you would want to see. If you come out you will not be disappointed.”
UPDATE: Sold for $8k.
This appears all original with a few tiny blemishes.
“1961 Willys Jeep Utility Wagon, 4 X 4 – Jeep is very original, 6 cylinder Super Hurricane, 3 speed, original interior, 1 repaint (original color) – has 5 Goodyear work horse 700 X 15 LT tires in good shape, spare is still new. All lights including headlights, brake lights, signal lights and tail lights work as does the emergency brake and wipers. Previous owner owned it since 2002 and has maintained it very well. Have many receipts for oil changes, tune ups, transmission rebuild, reseal transfer case, replace exhaust, tires, rebuilt carb., new clutch, new front and rear springs and bushings, etc. Hard to find one this solid that runs and drives this good. Previous owner states 92,000 miles are original and that he was the third owner.”
Here’s a nice looking truck.
“This is a fully restored 1953 Flat Fender Willys Jeep Pickup. This truck was taken down to the frame and was sand blasted and painted. Body and Box were taken down to bare metal, repaired and dents removed. It was re-assembled with all new brakes, brake lines, and master cylinder. The wiring is factory after market. The chrome has been cleaned and rechromed or is new old stock. Interior is new black vynil. The engine was a running 4 cylinder “Hurricane” removed from another not so fortunate jeep from the same era. It has Warren Hubs and new tires.”
