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 may be worth a look.

“Just picked up this 3a Jeep. Farm fresh. Have v6 daughtless set up. Gearbox is stuck. Not sure on engine. Figured I’d throw it up for sale and see if anyone is interested. Will start parting it out this next week so if someone wants the v6 setup message me. Nice way to get some extra push on a Jeep. No title or tags. Sure we can find a vin somewhere. Bill of sale”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(04/19/2024) This appears to be an MB/GPW with some 2A parts. Thanks to John for sharing.

“Needs a good home with someone with the time and knowledge to put her on the road. Everyone wants to know if it runs, it does not. It has a new radiator, new gas tank and steering linkage and steering wheel. As you can see it has a military body, so the body has to be older than ‘48 and a previous owner put a tailgate on it which it wouldn’t have. It does roll.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(12/06/2023) Appears solid.

“Nice old jeep starts every time runs great, drives good,stops ok body is 8.5 out of 10..chassis and running gear 9 out of 10…paint 4 at best p.o. brushed it red …tires are like new..little bad spots on passenger step ,on tailgate and in tool box..seats are like new all gauges work as does speedo.leaks a little oil from oil line every thing else leaks according to its age.will come with a 2a windshield frame that is serviceable as well as glass that is good the 3a windshield on it stays with me.its tagged and inspected p.o. converted to 12v with gm one wire alternator and headlamps are modern jk lamps other than that it’s all 1948 Texas title in my name…this is not a daily driver although I drive it all the time…if you are not mechanically inclined this is probably not the best toy choice”
Bill shared this video of what I think is a customized tracked vehicle with a vintage jeep body and an inline six possibly from a jeep. I don’t know enough about these to comment on it.
This runs and drives. Thanks to Andy for sharing it.

“Very nice running and driving Jeep Fleetvan. Appears to be all original. I put a new distributor in it and cleaned it up a bit. Runs, shifts and stops. I wouldn’t take it out on the road just yet but definitely not far from being a great food or swag truck. Very cool advertising piece for a business.”
A new dash and some paint would improve this rig quite a bit.

John spotted this wagon. It has some body rot, but also includes some body parts.

This is worth a look. Unclear how complete it is.

“Car is not running. Needs to be restored. Engine is out in pieces. See pictures. Needs a good home with someone who is looking for a fun project!”
This unusual build needs a valve job.

This maybe worth a closer look due to the classic deep dish slot rims and, possibly, the special aftermarket inset CJ-5 angled dash.
“Jeep sell whole. Ur gonna have to tow. Willing to trade for running car or street bike”
It’s a non runner, but still might be worth a look.

“1948 CJ2A runs amazing. Has rebuilt Chevy 153 4 cylinder, Chevy 4 speed manual transmission, and Chevy steering. Brand new aluminum radiator with shroud, new hoses, and thermostat. Freshly rebuilt carburetor, new brake lines throughout, newer tires, newer battery, new fuel pump/lines/ and filters. Just replaced head gasket, oil pan gasket, and valve cover gasket. Very reliable and a blast to drive.”
TJ shared this shortened truck. Note that the seller does not have the title, but has contact with the original owner who has paperwork of some kind.

“I have a 1951 willys pickup, I bought from a friend, got it to restore but don’t have the extra funds for parts, was willing to sell for less because of an injury but all healed up now but still willing to part with for the right price. The motor should be good, it was restored and ran when parked in the yard around 20 years ago. Someone had taken the radiator off and belt somewhere over the years, but i do have the radiator. It rolls but haven’t worked on the motor so don’t know if it will start or not. I know these trucks go for much more in same condition. Asking $1,000 OBO I do not have the title but can right bill of sale. Also can have original owner provide paperwork if any concerns.”
UPDATE: Still Available? I haven’t seen this ad on Facebook since 2019, but it just popped up as I was searching for something else. I suspect this sold, but you never know….
Has a variety of updates. Appears to have an overdrive.

“350 Chevy 3speed with overdrive. New Battery and Windshield. Needs carb cleaned. But runs descent with the choke on.”

The big spring project, operation Raised Garden #2, has finally concluded. The auto irrigation system is ready to go. Now, Ann just needs to finish planting and I need to put away the tools leaning against the shop (and paint the fencing around the propane tank).
Since first buying the place we’ve struggled with what to do with this dead zone between the shop and the guest house. Ann’s idea for 2nd garden area there looks like it will be a good idea. Here’s a before and after photo:
On Sunday, I returned to working on the FC. I finished a cover plate for the Wilwood hole (formerly the original shifter hole), and I built a bracket for the oil-cooler/electric fan setup (no pics just yet). Though I need to catch up on other projects waylaid as a result of the garden, I should have more time to work on the FC again.
Buz shared this uniquely colored yellow and white Willys MB. It looks like a detailed restoration.

“Purchased as a non-running Jeep from behind a barn in Memphis TN. Rebuilt as a project during Covid lockdown. Flat-head 60hp Go Devil engine converted to 12v, and new wiring and gauges installed throughout. Disk brakes added to the front to aid in drivability, and the front seats have been extended rearward into the rear fenders to allow a little more clearance between the steering wheel and the driver. Frame is powder coated. Axles, transmission/transfer case, and motor are all powder coated then rebuilt. Body work and painting performed off-the-frame at Fenix Automotive (https://www.fenixgarage.com/), and the full underside of the body is painted the same as the top side.”
