About eWillys
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.
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 rare 1980 Malotte Manufacturing brochure for fiberglass bodies was an interesting one to run across, as it includes a couple eastern dealers (see bottom image). This might explain where some of the older fiberglass bodies in the PA/OH area originated.
Roger Martin shared the news that the Antique Toy and Firehouse Museum in Bay City, Michigan, is selling some of their extra fire trucks including a 1958 fire jeep (see the Barn Finds post about the sale), though the fire jeep has sold already (I have no pics of it). Ann and I visited in 2013 and had a wonderful tour courtesy of the owner Jim Dobson.
Steve spotted this set. On ebay (example here), this stuff seems to be priced higher than the asking price of this set. I don’t know much about these prices, but maybe it’s a good price?
A variety of extras are included on this M-38. The windshield seems like it leans back a little farther than it should. I’ve never heard the term “Restored to Combat Class”.
“Has original parts, 24 volt system. Many original add-on’s that make this a unique find. Please see photos and review the video for running Jeep featuring a narrative from the owner and a full scope of all that is included with this sale.
Several of your inquiries have been to include further photos of what items are extra in my Dads large bin that comes with the Jeep. I’ve put many more photos in the ad now, several items most likely will have no interest to you, nevertheless they come with the Jeep.
I’ve personally never looked at the underside of the Jeep until I took these photos, it is not that easy to snap these upside down, but I did my best. I should tell you that it will have a few areas I know that need to be sanded, I believe on the right front passenger side on the undercarriage. The Jeep has been sitting several years without care, covered, but still without my dads care due to his illnesses, and I know he has not been able to maintain or do further work that he had planned on completing with the Jeep. But, all things considered, it’s not a shiny showpiece, however, it is one heck of a Jeep!
We’d Love to hear from you, make your best offer!”
“I’m selling my 1948 Willys cj2A with a bantam trailer. Jeep was gone through years ago, but the floor is showing a little rot. Runs and drives great. I have clear titles for both the Jeep and trailer. I will separate the two.
$10,000 for both
$8500 for just Jeep
$1500 for bantam trailer”
“It was my grandads, was a postmaster in oklahoma…no paperwork, right hand drive…will run with little effort, has a new radiator, starter, and rear wheel bearings and seals…4 brand new goodyear all season tires as of 2017.”
“1949 willys jeep 4×4 all original ran when parked 12 years ago changed out the distributor and couldn’t get it to fire after that no title bill of sale only”
“Cool vintage CJ2A with an F-head engine that runs good. Rebuilt body and chassis. Roll bar. Excellent high and low range 4-wheel drive. Detachable tow bar”
“Clone willys truck/flatbed. Runs drives stops, needs seats. No rot that I see, bought off a coworker who’s moving to Florida. Was going to put axles and tires and make a woods rig, but too many projects to dedicate time on it. Has plow set up but no blade. Open to offers and trades”
“Runs good. Brakes work. It’s registered with antique plates. Comes with a snow plow but the lower frame needs to be installed. Has more than 300 miles. Not sure what the actual miles are. Rust in all the usual places”
“1945 Ford GPW Jeep made for WW2 multiple “F” stamped bolts, tool boxes. Awesome project. Has a running Buick V6 engine in it. Runs and Drives . Brand new brakes all around , new master cylinder. Warren overdrive. 4×4 high and low work perfectly. Comes with trailer to tow it .”
This Willys-Overland of Canada Limited wagon ad is listed as a 1945 ad, but given the wagon wasn’t introduced until mid-1946, I’d say that date is a mistake. The text mentions the “new, rugged Willys Trucks”, which weren’t introduced until mid-1947. That style of wagon was used in numerous 1948 ads and the Willys-Overland graphic made an appearance in some of the 1948 ads, too. The lack of any mention of the wagon being a jeep is curious, as Willys-Overland didn’t make a big push on dropping ‘Jeep’ from its advertising until late 1949.
“1945 Canadian Willys-Overland print ad Station Wagon. Original paper item measures 8.5 X 11 inches (approx.). Any shades or shadows are from the scanner and do not appear on the actual ad.”
“All original WW2 Jeep. Complete and running. Includes new military non directional tires mounted on original combat rims. Includes matched spare tire also on combat rim. Top and seat covers were recently replaced (new original style). Was told engine has been recently rebuilt and probably has less than 200 miles on it. Appears to have been originally painted olive drab, but has since been painted Navy gray. Had planned on returning paint color to olive drab and purchased 1 gallon of paint which will be included in sale. Bumpers are in very good condition and very well could be originals.
Brakes work well enough to stop it, but could use some maintenance. Has been stored under cover. Park brake not hooked up and lights will need to be rewired. Original 6 volt system with 8 volt battery.”
“This is an original RARE 1961 Willy’s Jeep CJ-3B. The last of the flat fender. Frame off restoration, engine rebuilt, new transmission, new transfer case, new shift tower, new exhaust, new suspension, new battery, and so much more. Frame and body is coated with an expensive rust proof paint, then primed, and then final paint. My husband poured his heart, money and soul into this jeep, with intentions of keeping it forever. This is not an altered or modified jeep, it has been purposely kept original for value sake, which is what makes it so rare. He has kept all the replaced components and has invested over $15,000 into this, plus two years of his time and labor. Open to offers, but please don’t insult me, this is worth every penny. Need to sell ASAP thanks“
