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: Price dropped to $12,500
(09/02/2019) Is that a heater between the seats?

Some random vintage photos of Jeepsters on eBay:
The Duffield Intermediate School was featured in this January 29, 1944, photo in the Detroit Tribune after successfully enough war bonds and stamps to buy a jeep.
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $450.
These might be based on the Koenig bed extender (see a variety of extenders here). I’ve not interacted with the seller and have not seen one in person yet. Has anyone ordered one of these?
“Listing for a friend that is not on FB. Built Willys Jeep Extend A Bed. 7 cubic ft more room!! Will fit CJ models 2a, 3a, 3b, 5, 6. I had this made exactly from an original 1946 extend a bed.

A vintage ad for them:
This looks in good condition. Has bucket seats, but seller has original seats still.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/206546064057291/
“Classic 1967 Jeepster Deluxe Convertible. Runs great. Body is rust free. Chrome bumpers have slight pitting. Currently has bucket seats installed but I have the factory original low back seats and will include them in the sale. Newer paint, newer tires with 95% tread and newer top. This has an automatic transmission!!! Power top mechanism was working when I replaced the top but I did not reinstall the old parts; it should work if parts are replaced. Original radio doesn’t work, gas gauge does not work. Looks great and runs great. 4wd mechanism is not connected, we use this only to make ice cream runs in nice weather in the summer. Never goes out in the rain, etc.”
Looks in good shape.

“1948 Willy’s Jeepster. First year Jeepster was made. Runs, clear title. New, white wall tires, about 1,000 miles on them”
Runs and drives.

Has Warn OD. The rear wheel wells were partially trimmed on the inside.
https://palmsprings.craigslist.org/cto/d/indio-1970-jeep-cj6-rare/7111748382.html
“1970 cj6 long wheel base Jeep. These jeeps are rare. 101” wheelbase. Runs and drives however it is a project. Clean ca title and current registration. Dauntless 225 v6 original motor. Dana 44 rear and a Dana 27 I believe in the front. Drum brakes old school technology. 3 speed with a warn overdrive. Rebuilt Holley 2 barrel carb and a new distributor. The tires are 33 inch and currently junk. I have to swap one out due to being flat.
Possible trade for a built banshee, 250r, long travel built quads. Plus cash if needed.
I am more of a Toyota guy and decided not to build this Jeep. I was going to install a 14 bolt rear and a Dana 44 front with 37” tires and leaf spring it AND THEN CRUISE IT… It’s a great platform with a reliable motor. I believe it has a Detroit true track in the rear.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $400.
Seller is willing to separate.
“1946 CJ2A Frame, 1948 CJ2A tub, fenders, hood and grill. Make offer, will separate if desired.”
Not sure if the tubs are $300/per tub?
https://albuquerque.craigslist.org/pts/d/isleta-cj2a-jeep-bodys/7105036010.html
“I have 3 jeep tubs for CJ2A jeeps, some fenders, hoods, windshields, and many other parts, vintage jeeps only”
It appears to have data plates.

“Authentic USMC / Army jeep trailer.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $14,500.
It’s a project.
“This is a 1964 Jeep Willy FJ-3A service Fleetvan wagon. Very rare left hand drive model. Body is straight and there is no rust eating through any of the body panels. There is rust that is just surface of chassis and body. There are a few bumps that would need some body work but they are very minor and small dents. Front and rear bumpers are missing unfortunately. The original engine has been replaced with a Ford V-8 and automatic transmission, engine turns over and has compression. Though it hasn’t ran for a few years. Engine would need a few parts for it to be finished, Radiator, fan, etc. got most of the parts for it to run. Driveshaft is not attached currently. Brakes don’t work and need servicing as well. This Willy’s Fleetvan will need to be trailered home. Can negotiate delivery after payment. Any questions shoot me a message, I can get any other photos if needed. Title in hand with bill of sale. $14500 or best offer.”
Seems I had scans of this 1955 Jeep Specialized Vehicles And Equipment brochure after all (not sure where I got them). The brochure is twenty-eight pages, but does not have a Form number (confirmed by the order form in this post).
Ted Jordan is hoping to find a good photo of a data tag from an early Monroe 3-Point Lift. Apparently, the early lifts did not have stampings; instead they had a tag attached as shown in the poor photo below. Ted would like to get a good photo of one so he can have the tag recreated. If you have something, either comment below, email me d @ deilers.com or email Ted direction willysted @ charter.net.
This brochure (form W-991-5) is currently priced at $18.99 with free shipping (or make offer). You could probably offer $15 and get it (I made an offer on a different brochure from the same seller and knocked off a few bucks). You can review all 25 pages here.

I wish they would have provided the full name of the soldier.

Thanks to Prasantha for sharing this auction. Overall seems like a nice rig. There are a few non-stock items, but they are relatively trivial in my opinion.
https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1946-willys-cj2a-8/
“This 1946 Willys CJ-2A was reportedly used as an airport tug prior to its purchase by the seller five years ago. It was later refurbished and is finished in Harvest Tan over a tan canvas interior. Power is from a 134ci inline-four paired with a three-speed manual gearbox and a dual-range transfer case. Equipment includes painted steel wheels, steel bumpers, a trailer hitch, a driver-side mirror and windshield wiper, and a rear bench seat.
