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 .
This lacks a title, but doesn’t lack potential.

“My CJ2A project, currently has no title, but I was in the process and will provide a bill of sale. Very good condition with not a lot of bad rot spots for its age. Ran not too long ago before I drained the fuel. Shifted and ran well, but it’s main issue is no brakes. The cylinders were bad and the lines may need replaced. Time for it is just one of those things I don’t have anymore sadly.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000.
This CJ-5 carried a Go-For Digger backhoe.
“1969 cj5 dually. Factory Go-For-Digger. F134ci 3 speed. 532 front and 587 rear gear. Needs work but runs. Has half cab and doors. Don’t need to sell just testing the waters. Message me with any questions. Also interested in trades for other projects.”
UPDATE: Here’s another floating jeep article that seems appropriate to add to this post. It appeared in the March 17, 1941, issue of the Philadelphia Inquirer.
===================
These two photos appeared in the August 10, 1941, issue of the Salt Lake Tribune. The jeep pictured is a Ford GP. There should be one or more press photos on eWillys, but I will have to combine them when I have more time.
This 1971 photo shows Barney Goodwin in his 1963 DJ-3A. No doubt he was the coolest kid at his Houston, Texas, High School!
No dates provided on this series of four photos that feature a Willys MA. This basic description describes them all:
Offered is an original WWII time period photograph. It belonged Lt. Salvador Joseph Cuttitta who was enlisted with the 6th Armored Infantry and trained with 1st Armored Division. He was then transferred to serve with the 5th Armored Division. There is some tape on the corners as seen. Picture measures approximately 3 1/4″ x 4 1/2″ inches.
These two photos shows a CJ-2A with a modified body made of wood. While there are several similar “woodie” bodies (see all wood-related bodies here), the photos below appear to show a unique build.
View all the information on eBay
“Two original photographs of Woody automobile. The engine hood reads – Willy. I believe these were mock up advertising photos. The upper photo is mounted from the back – see photo. The lower photo is glued to the board. Photos measure 3 1/2 x 4 3/4 inches. Mounting board is 8 x 10 inches. Please ask questions.”
UPDATE II: The current owner bought this Jeepster this summer. He was wondering if anyone knows any history on this former Shriner’s vehicle?
==================

This former Grays Harbor Shriner’s Jeepster has even converted to an automatic tranny (probably from a Pinto … looks like one anyway) with a Pinto engine. I love the history on this one. Looks like a great price.
“Rare 1950 Willys Jeepster. Updated with Pinto engine, 12 volt system. Always stored indoors. No rust. Former Shrine clown car. $5,000 Please call, no texting.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(12/14/2020) Seems like a good price. It appears to have later model Free-Lock hubs.

(11/12/2020) This old school California build with a Muller top went through some additional modifications over the years. It will need a little more work, hence the price.

“I don’t know what I have here, but this is for sale. The title says 1951 Jeep. This belonged to a friend of mine who was storing it on my property, until he passed away last August. It was running when he pulled the carburetor for a rebuild, but never had a chance to finish. I have the carburetor but there is no key. If you have questions please ask and I’ll do my best to answer or post more pictures. Hoping someone here can shed some light and make a honest assessment and reasonable offer. The Jeep has a clear Montana title and is located in Central California.”
UPDATE: Still Available.

“Working good cj3b 4 cylinder hurricane engine, 3 speed transmission, also I have the soft top and doors and clean title”
Old pic:
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800.
(12/15/2020) This looks to be a GPW body on a CJ (Possible 1953 CJ-3A or CJ-3B) chassis. There’s no engine. The cowl modification is unusual, but I’d say the steering setup is especially unusual!
“1953 Jeep CJ2. Missing motor and Radiator. Good title. Decent builder good rock climber or mud project.Has transmission and transfer case.factory option half top. Price reduced to $1800. ”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $19,500.

(12/24/2020) This wagon was a rent-a-jeep unit out of Idaho Springs, Colorado. This would have been a neat one to restore back to it’s rental life condition. The deal includes a ’98 S-10.

“My plans have changed and I am selling my ’54 Jeep wagon. Overall good condition and just waiting for someone to give it the love that it needs. Ran when I got it but smoked.

Anxious to move these two please contact if interested. Vehicles are located by Canon City, Colorado”
this is how it looked prior to the work:
Tom McCahill reviews the reviewed the Jeepster and Station Wagon in the January 1950 issue of Mechanic Illustrated . He liked the new four-wheel-drive wagon, but was less a fan of the Jeepster.
This FJ-3A brochure Form No. 61-05.
====================
Originally published October 31, 2015: This is an interesting FJ-3A brochure. It is Form No. 61-14. The ladder holder is something I haven’t seen anywhere.
“Here I have a 1961 single sheet advertisement issued by Willys for the Willys Jeep Fleetvan. There is some wear along the top and some light creasing (See Scans) but it still displays very nicely.”
Looks in good shape. Has a PTO winch up front and a Koenig hardtop.

“Runs. No brakes Trans or transfer case make a lot of noise, but comes with spare trans and transfer case. Charging system not hooked up. No battery. Washington title in my name. Has original vin tag and also frame tag.”

“Project flat fender jeep. Comes with factory flat head motor, transmission transfer case and PTO. Pick up in Paso.”
This is an odd, apparently purpose-built(?) four-wheel-drive utility vehicle.
