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 II: This brochure is reminiscent of the Argentina jeep pickup, though this one looks much more CJ-5ish. This is currently on eBay.
UPDATE: Maury found a couple related photos. That top looks kind of similar to one of the DJ-3A tops I’ve seen in pics. Nice half doors, too.

“I bought this just over 5 years ago in west Texas. It’s been garaged the entire 5 years it’s been in Michigan. According to the previous owner, it spent most of its life in New Mexico. The body has very little rust, quite a few dents and dings, and the frame is in great shape. It seems to be mostly complete. Comes with a replacement used windshield, back window, and side windows. I’ve never tried to get it running, so consider it needing a complete going through. It has the 3-speed transmission and Selectro hubs. Some tires hold air, some don’t for long. It rolls and the engine rotates. The Jayhawk dump apparatus in the bed is not included, however it is listed separately, see my other posting. The transfer case is also not included. I have a clear Michigan title in my name. VIN# 61568 21173”
Runs and drives.

“I have up for sale a 1950 Military Willys that I got in trade and really have no need for. Pretty cool rig that runs, drives and stops. Its got its original running gear so its not going to break any land speed records. The body has been modified in areas for reinforcement mainly in the back where the tire carrier was added. It has minimal rust however the body is rough as in lots of dents. It does have new tires, new springs and has been converted to 12volt. The headlights are LED and work great and its equipped with a 12k winch that works. I don’t have time for BS so please be serious and only call if your truly interested. No this is not a daily driver, nor is it street legal (no turn signals) and yes it does have a clear title. I may be interested in trades but would rather sell it for cash.
It looks like it has a replacement body.

“This Jeep runs, drives, and stops great. The Jeep body does have some patch work and rust through in places, but as is you could daily drive and use it for fun or pleasure if you’d like. The frame looks great compared to most I see and very original. The engine runs smooth and strong and is the original 134L flathead 4. The original T90 3 speed transmission shifts smoothly. 4 wheel drive operates as it should. The top is in good shape overall. The button snaps are pulled loose in a few places.
I will be adding to this Jeep here and there while it’s listed. I plan to build the Jeep according to the body tub. Basically back into the M38 military style if it doesn’t sale soon.
This Jeep also has a clear title and can be driven on the road.
If your looking for an original classic Jeep that you can hop in and drive where ever you want then here you are An original early flat fender Willys Overland Jeep.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4800.
(03/18/2018) This runs and drives, but could use some polish.
“1954 Willy’s Pickup, 4 Wheel Drive, 134 F head engine, converted to 12 V, Runs down the road without a problem, has turn out hubs, recent brake work and rebuilt carb. Some rust in the cab corners and bed. A variety of spare parts and wheels included.”

“HIS IS A UNIQUE JEEP PICKUP BECAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE A SNUB NOSE. THE FRONT OF THE RIG IS FLAT LIKE IT WAS HIT IN THE FRONT, BUT WAS JUST THE DESIGN. IT WAS ACTUALLY A VERY COOL LOOKING TRUCK. THE UNIT REQUIRED WEIGHTS UNDER THE BED TOWARD THE REAR SO IT WOULD NOT TIP ONTO ITS NOSE. THIS HAS A 4 CYLINDER ENGINE IN IT AS IT IS BASICALLY A HALF TON AND MOST OF THE FC 170 TRUCKS WERE AN INLINE 6 CYLINDER AS THEY WERE DESIGNED AS A 3/4 TON. IT HAD 4WD AND WAS A STICK SHIFT WITH NO SPECIAL AMENITIES LIKE A/C. Continue reading
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500.
It needs a lot of work for the price.
“A very good candidate for restoration, has the original Ford stamped head. This is a WW2 military or US Army USMC US Navy Jeep GPW. I will return a call if you leave your phone number.”
During 1947, the Fleming Company pad for some newspaper advertising. Two of their jeep ads are show below.
In April of 1947 the Fleming Company paid for this “Speed up Work” ad in the Sunday Star-News.
Later that year, this ad appeared in the August 24, 1947, issue of the Sunday Star-News in Wilmington, N.C, paid for by the Fleming Company.
This is a neat piece. It is interesting to me that they used the “King of Jeeps” branding, as that was Berg’s branding.

“Never seen one of these items before. Old Leather key Chain from Hunter Motors Alexandria VA. I believe Hunter motors was formed shortly after WWII. Judging by the phone number on the key chain, this probably dates to the 1950’s, Has been in storage for approx 30+ years.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $19,000.
This looks in good shape, though it does have a few mods. Has anyone ever seen dual tank inlets light the ones on the rear of this jeep? (At least I think those are gas inlets).
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was on ebay
(last listed on ebay in Jan 2015) “This is a custom, one-off Willy’s Jeep. It was made for Henry Kaiser, when he retired to Hawaii and became involved in tourism and land development. He had the custom pink long-wheelbase Willys wagon built for exploring the island. Kaiser’s wife loved pink and all of his construction equipment was painted pink, so that seems to be where the pink color for the Jeep came from. This can all be seen on the following web page, along with a photo (which is the black and white photo provided in the photos of the vehicle) of the Jeep in Hawaii : http://cj3b.info/Siblings/SurreyHawaii.html
We also have documentation from the Kaiser Jeep Corporation stating that this Jeep is an authentic one of a kind Jeep. Please only serious inquiries only and please do not try to convince us that we are wrong about it being a one of a kind, this is most definitely not a railroad Jeep. We know what we have and are willing to answer questions of those with serious inquiries about this vehicle.”
====================
The seller claims to have documentation to prove that this is the only four door limo-like wagon made. to Willys Country this wagon was once used as a limo for an airport. Whether there was only one built or remains an undocumented issue at this point. Is the wagon above the same one that’s in the photo below? Hard to say for sure.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $16,500.
This looks like a fun ride. It’s got a ventilating 3B windshield.
