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 .
Here’s another hard-to-find farming brochure produced by the Newgren Company.
This love company brochure highlights its Spike Tooth Harrows equipment. Based on the first set of pics here, this equipment have have been used with the Disc frame work as well.

(07/24/2019) This has some unusual elements. The seat that tilts inward could be a hand feature.
https://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/cto/d/portland-1946-willys-jeep-cj2a/6938788061.html
“Home built way back in the 1980’s by me. Engine is the F-head F134 “Hurricane” engine. Power steering. Dana 44 rear axle and Dana 25 front axle with a 3 speed transmission and transfer-case. Nice set of tires on 15″ Powder Coated rims. Cruises down the street real nice. No sissy bar or seat belts”
This late model non-script CJ-3B looks restoring. It has a gov plate. It also has an overdrive.
https://savannah.craigslist.org/pts/d/savannah-jeep-cj3b/6989026661.html
“1964 CJ3B Jeep rebuilt original motor, new radiator, optional factory heater. Includes a Warn overdrive unit, lock out hubs on front axel. This is not a military version, but was a civil defense radio vehicle. Plates still on dash. Engine runs great. Brakes need work.”
This one had me scratching my head. First, it lacks a battery box lid on the cowl, so I thought it might be a CJ body, yet it also lacks “Jeep” on the sides, so probably not a CJ-5 body. The rear bumper suggests it is the USMC variant of the M-38A1. I”m guessing the body has been rebuilt.

“1942 Ford Willys Jeep, $3,800 OBO. Great project vehicle for a Jeep enthusiast! Does need some work, Shelter Kept and tarp covered. I was able to bump the motor 14 years ago and it has been sitting since.”
Seller incorrectly states that this is a flathead; it does have an f-head.
https://nashville.craigslist.org/cto/d/mount-juliet-53-willysjeepall-original/6996966965.html
“53 WILLYS..

Not much to go on (no pics, and almost no description), but the seller indicates in one of the side categories that the “condition” is “good”.

“1948 Willy jeep $2000 or best offer”
This may be a later model engine (oil bracket is CJ-3A/DJ/M-38 type). There could be some value here.

“Willy’s mb jeep- new springs, shocks, brake lines. Was told that the transfer case was rebuilt.v6 Buick and it runs good. Took this on parcel trade for my sand rail. To many projects. 4×4, Willy’s, transmission, side by side,”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000.
This lengthened CJ-2A looks similar to other “CJ-2L“s mostly seen in the Pacific Northwest. It wouldn’t surprise me if this was original from that area. Strangely, this jeep is decorated with license plates.
“Selling for a friend. 1947 CJ2A stretch. Needs a little work but it runs and drives. All original motor and drive train and has been used on private property for 50 years.”
These photos shows a VEC CJ-2A with different implements. Note the passenger rear quarter panel damage. Perhaps that should have been a sign that perhaps the jeep wasn’t cut out for farming? (though I’m assuming the damage happened while farming).
Can anybody provided more info on the implements below? I couldn’t identify them.
1. This has a dual setup similar to the Love Tandem Disc Harrow, but with the spike tooth harrows rather than discs.
2. This appears to be a Newgren Company Field and Pasture Cultivator:
Photos of this unit can be seen here (or just look above this post).
This is the Love Company’s tandem disc setup (learn more about the Love Company and its lift at Farmjeep.com). It appears the same structure was use atop a tandem spike tooth harrows, too.
UPDATE: Appears to be still available.
(08/24/2019) Looks like a good build.
