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 .
It runs, but needs some work. Appears to have a Buick V6.

“Changing focus. I’m selling my FC-150 to make room for a different project. Truck does run. But I had plans to swap in a modern motor and transmission. Body has been separated from the frame and some body work has been started. Has some rust in the cab corners and under the battery tray. But overall it’s pretty solid.”
This tailgate is advertised as an original agri-jeep 1944 tailgate. The history of this tailgate is unclear as Fred discusses in this CJ-2 thread: https://www.thecj2apage.com/forums/cj2-tailgate_topic45515.html

According to Fred on a CJ-2A forum thread, this photo shows the tailgate that Fred purchased back in 2016.
David & Ann overlooking Crater Lake National Park in Oregon.
We split the remainder of our drive home from Conord into two days. I had a few plans to meet folks, but had to give up on them as we simply didn’t have much time on our return trip (Ann had a doc appt on Tuesday morning).
Our total mileage came in at just over 2000 miles, so it wasn’t too long of trip by our standards. We drove through four states, into three national parks, by two ordnance depots (Hawthorne, NV, and Concord, CA), and picked up one hood (thanks again Chuck). Best of all, we got to hang with my daughter Kasia! All-in-all a fine, if quick, trip.
I wish I could report on a thousand adventures from California to Washington, but apart from driving (without anything hitting us while driving), our only two adventures worth noting on our return home was our visit to the Harry and David store in Medford and our stop at Crater Lake National Park.
On Sunday we went out to breakfast with Kasia, then began our trek north. When we reached Medford, we were surprised to find out that there was a Harry and David Store right around the corner from our hotel. If you’ve never ordered food from Harry and David (they ship all over the word), you are missing out, especially with their pears. As my son put it, BEST PEARS EVER! Even a couple pears we bought from their store were excellent!
Naturally, we didn’t stop at pears. We also bought some cheese, some crackers and some unusual sausages made from ham and cheese (delicious). I can’t find them online, but they are really good. We munched on our food haul for dinner Sunday night.
On Monday morning, we left early, heading east for Crater Lake National Park. I’d never been there and Ann couldn’t remember being there, so it was a new experience for us both. The morning was beautiful and we made good time driving, until we ran up behind a couple school buses. After that, the going was slow, but the tree-lined two-land road was very relaxing none-the-less.
Our first stop at the National Park was the visitor’s center, where we learned there were three separate entrances to the park (we can in on the west side). We also learned we could circumvent Crater Lake using a national park road that had several beautiful vistas of the lake.
Soon, we were driving around the lake (while snacking on Harry & David food).
I’m not sure how clear this picture is, but it purports to be a photo fo Patton crossing the Seine over a pontoon bridge.

I’m not sure there’s $2500 in value here, but maybe not everything is pictured? Still, there may be some good parts and useful documents/manuals.

“I have a big lot of military jeep parts and Manuals
I am not an expert on these parts as they were my Father’s who has passed

First $2500 takes it all.
I’m not looking to sell bits and pieces looking to get rid of it all.”
There could be some parts value here.

https://austin.craigslist.org/cto/d/san-angelo-1958-willys-fc170-forward/6981614636.html
“Willys Jeep FC170 Forward Control. These are very rare, most people have never seen one. They were built from 1956-1965. Super Hurricane six, Rare four speed. All original running gear. Motor does turn over. It has sat many years inside an enclosed building. Probably needs Carb cleaned , new fuel pump, gas tank cleaned, New belts, hoses. Needs brakes checked. It rolls easy so it can be loaded on a trailer. I can assist with loading or shipping.
The back glass is not in it, but it is included. The gas tank was removed( I assume for cleaning)and is included with brackets. I have the extended front bumper and warn winch mounts. Everything is there except the frame covers that fit in front of the rear fenders. I think a sheet metal guy could make some easily. some of the stake bed brackets are rusted from holding leaves. Reproductions are available. Speedo is missing also.”
When your crops need cultivating, look no further than Newgren! This brochure appeared in a late 1940’s Special Equipment Book.
And, it only weights 1221 lbs! This was featured in a late 1940s Special Equipment Book.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $30,000.
This is the late Bruce Agan’s former surrey that is being sold by his wife. It’s about as accurate a surrey as you’ll find. I’ve seen less accurate surrey’s sell for much more. See the full story on this Surrey here.
Looks in good shape.

(04/25/2019) This doesn’t have the correct grille or fenders for a 1952. It’s missing a few other stock parts, too.
“willy m170 jeep. The jeep runs and drives good! 4wd and the high and low both work as well. The jeep has been converted to 12 volt system. New alternator and carburetor. The paint color is olive drab and is in overall good condition. The jeep does have a blue vin tag issued by the state because the Vin numbers were not able to be found. I am selling this because I am a college student and don’t have the time to appreciate the vehicle.”

I like the ‘field mod’ addition of the drink holder on the dash.
“Restored 3 yrs ago, all sheetmetal original other than repair panels and grill, have original grill as a wall hanger but is very usable, post war engine block with gpw internals professionally rebuilt, original T84 that is finicky and have to double clutch to shift down from 3rd to 2nd, all other running gear original and rebuilt, very nice old Jeep that gets tons of comments,”
Titled as a 1951, it appears to be an MB.
https://dallas.craigslist.org/ftw/cto/d/haslet-1951-willys-jeep-take-look/6982492482.html
“Here I am putting my 1951 Willys Jeep up for sale. This was a military jeep body style around 1945 but was tilted as 1951 as that is when the government sold it to the public. I have owned the Jeep for about 7 years. It had a new paint job 5 years ago and has been garage kept at my business since. Only taken out a few time by my employees. I need it to go to someone who will use it and enjoy it.
The things that I have done since ownership are – New Paint job, New Water Pump, Rebuilt Transmission, New Clutch, New Interior Rhino Line, New Air Shocks in rear with built in compressor, new electric fuel pump(bypassed the original fuel pump, this thing fires up right away with out stomping on the gas pedal 5 times before turning the engine).
Besides the items listed I don’t know any other history. Its a 70 year old classic, not in Perfect shape but is very nice and definitely turns heads. Has a tow hitch that hooks up to the front bumper to go with it.
I will consider cash, cash + Trade and or a trade(if I really like it)”
