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 .
The tub is rough, but maybe there’s something here someone can use?
https://boise.craigslist.org/pts/d/boise-1942-jeep-willys-mb-tub-and/6787653913.html
“Selling the tub and fenders for a 1942 Jeep Willy’s MB.
They are not in the best shape, but not too bad considering they went through WWII.
They would be good for parts or candidates for a build. I was planning on using for a build, but I need the space for other projects. No title.”
Now sure how much value is here.
https://portland.craigslist.org/clk/cto/d/napavine-3-jeep-willys-trucks/6783074408.html
“3 willys trucks, the green and white truck has a Chevy small block motor the other 2 are just body, frames, etc… I also have a set of rear fenders.
I have a title for 1 of them the other 2 are just parts trucks.
I had purchased a 4×4 tahoe rolling chassis with title that I had plans to put one of the willys body on (wheel base is within an inch of being the same) that you can take with the trucks if you want.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(01/02/2019) Not sure how much value is here.
https://sacramento.craigslist.org/cto/d/sparks-willys-cj-2a-1948-jeep/6784703080.html
“I have for sale a 1948 Willy’s CJ-2a it looks like it has been to hell and back, perfect for yard art or for parts. It has a clean California title. I could not find a Vin # on the frame lots of welding looks to have taken care of that. No drive train, fenders or seats”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6800.
(01/02/2018) “Willy’s fiberglass body , 383 stroker, powerglide 2 speed tranny , 9 in rear , 456 full spool spline ,

It doesn’t run, but has potential. The body will need some work.

This is an odd brochure. It’s titled, “Let’s Keep Them Running”. The front page has some of the poorer illustrated trucks and wagons. All the vehicles look a little off in terms of size and styling.

The Quiz:
Given non-running DJ-5s can be picked up for under $1000, I’ll be curious to see if this sells for the asking price. No description provided.

This Willys powered Schramm generator looks in good shape. I’ve seen other Willys-Schramm products, but not anything this large.
“Old military schramm generator with a 40’s willys 4 cylinder jeep engine. I’ve had this for about 9yrs. It has been kept inside the whole time. I’ve installed new rims/tires and added a spare tire and mount.”
Needs some carb work. Has mods.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/330034964472737

(12/06/2018) The jeep looks nice. Seller estimates that there are less than 100 M-170s in existence. Actually, I’ve documented and seen more than 200 and I suspect there are many more I haven’t seen.
“18k is estimated reasonable value. I have that in parts. rotisserie restoration completely stock. Less than 100 exist. Very few restored. This one has everything to make it complete. Rebuilt everything. Has arctic heater kit, full ambulance gear. Full top and doors. Deep water military fording kit It is what that cj6 was derived from. Military show winner. I want to trade for a true hot rod. 30s 40s or 50s. Two door. Something that has or can add ac to. Flathead is plus.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was No Price.
