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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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 .

“1950/51 Willys M38. Last flat fender military jeep, designated as a Willys model C (MC). Clear Texas Title This jeep is mostly complete. The engine has not been run in several years but did run whenparked. It is not frozen. The body is rusty with extensive rust in front floor boards and right
front lower cowl. The body can be restored as body panels are available. The transmission and transfer case are present and worked when parked. The engine is not original to the jeep but is the correct style 134L Willys engine.
Steering gear box has been removed and needs to be rebuilt.
The military data plate shows a serial number of MC10427, the Willys Patent Plate shows a serial number of MC10485. This would place this jeep as being between the 419th and 477th one built of approximately 63,000. I have a clear TX Title for the vehicle.
I am asking $1000 for the jeep. I can help load or can deliver within 500 miles for $1.25 a mile prepaid. ”

“1947 Willys CJ2A. This is a complete Jeep – some assembly required! I started on this project about 10 years ago with a decent unmolested barn find jeep. (The last inspection sticker on the jeep was 1965 so it believe it had been sitting in the barn for that long) It was disassembled and sandblasted. The original body has been professionally repaired and is ready for paint. The body and tailgate numbers match. The frame is nice, front horns are good, with the original gussets. The engine is correct however it has been disassembled for a rebuild. (New Pistons, valves, springs, gaskets included) Fenders, hood, grille, windshield frame, seat frames have been blasted, primed with DP90 and are all in good condition.
If you are looking to do a correct restoration on a CJ2A, this is the jeep for you to start with. If you just want an old willys that looks like an “army jeep” then you should look elsewhere. A reproduction body kit runs about $3700. For another $1000, you can get a correct ORIGINAL body kit with a clean PA title and the rest of the jeep. I will add pictures as I dig the rest of the stuff out of the barn. I will start with Craigslist and if it doesn’t sell then I will move to ebay. Serious inquiries and phone calls only please… (emails and bs texts will be ignored)”
Just a few updates tonight ….. This early video shared by David shows a few modified flatties. The film footage was taken by Frank Parks of Rockville, Maryland, in Florida in the summer of 1960.
Nice vintage CJ-5 commercial shared on Facebook.
