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 .
This video was shared on Facebook. The first half of the video focuses on rubber tire substitutes using a jeep as a test vehicle.
The auction on eBay ended, but I thought this was an interesting photo.

This is one of my favorite brochures. It’s a 25 page pamphlet with lots of pics. You can see all the pages here.

“Rare unique Panel Delivery. The metal on this wagon is in excellent condition, no dents including roof. There is no rust in any area of the sheet metal. Where all the corners meet are all factory fit. The barn doors open and close and fit perfect. It is straight, all the original parts are still there including the 6-226 super hurricane engine that runs and drives. #6 cylinder smokes needs TLC. Has original trans, original seat frames come with it, also a factory installed Ramsey winch runs from the power of the engine. It needs paint, the passenger door window and vent window need to be replaced. The first of the sport utility wagons. This truck is a workhorse.”
Listed as a 1963, it is definitely earlier than that.

“Vietnam tough, tried and true. It runs. Helping my 73 year old neighbor sell it.”
Dan is selling his grandfathers wagon. It’s a project.

“Selling grandpas 1953 Jeep Willy’s Wagon, newer paint, comes with hi-po 1959 283 sbc with 327 corvette camel hump heads( engine is not installed but inspected by machine shop to guarantee it runs) has manual trans and twin stick t-case as well as over/under drive, it has 4 sticks on floor, the interior needs some work, has nice seats, but the body is solid including the floor and fenders. Upgraded full floater axles, axle shafts, pinions etc..
There’s some surface rust on the underside, but is has been covered under a car port and car cover.. all of the parts needed to get it running and driving are here, boxed and labeled, just put it all back together and she’ll be ready to go.. The only item I know it needs are a water pump and Battery. Three of the five tires hold air for at least a month, the other two for a day or so, enough to trailer it home. But the wheels/tires are old and will need to be replaced once it’s road worthy .. Asking $5900/obo, running/driving would be worth well over $10k, could be a flipper if you’re handy, I can deliver for additional fee to be negotiated!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
Lacks brakes.

The jeep appears in good shape, but the pics aren’t very useful.

This is a Boston Hardtop that looks in good condition. Not many of these on the West Coast.
“Hardtop for Willys Jeep. It is very well made. It is not a Koenig because the doors are suicide doors. It was on a 1946 CJ2A. It literally installs and uninstalls in less than 5 minutes. Six over-center clips to the rear tub and two wingnuts over the windshield and it is on or off. Very handy and very waterproof. Easy to lift off with two people. Suicide doors open right back to flush with the body.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $2800.

“I have a 1943 Willys MB438804. This is a parts jeep, look at the photos and read the listing before asking questions please. Jeep does not run. Frame, axles, wheels, drums, steering, and non running v6 ford motor. No transmission or gearbox, just what is pictured.”
Gayland shared this ad. It has no engine and the seller had begun converting it to 4WD. Looks to be 56337 10588 (I have DJ-3A #10538).
https://houston.craigslist.org/cto/d/1956-dj-3a-jeep-roller-no/6732338028.html
“For sale is a rust free 1956 DJ-3A. This vehicle was a barn find. I had the only rust spots repaired already. I am open to offers on this Jeep, their are many additional parts / extra parts that come with this jeep.
Frame is straight. I have slowly been buying new parts for this. I have a new front bumper and some other parts. The rims are correct for this jeep, the tires are just old tires to move it around.
I have the hood, windshield, fenders, grill, extra hubs, brakes, tire carrier, and most of the interior. No motor, tranny, or t-case but I know where you can get them in the area. Jeep was originally a 2wd. I have the correct axles to make this a 4wd.”
No pics provided. It’s a project.
https://seattle.craigslist.org/sno/cto/d/1965-jeep-project/6756379168.html
“This is a project I picked up earlier this year. It is titled as a 1965 DJ3A and shows 55K miles. I believe it was a hybrid built for the UN. The chassis and undercarriage is military with 4wd, pintle hitch and bumperettes. It has been modified with a Chevy 283 that starts and runs good. The body is enclosed like the mail jeeps but this was never a mail Jeep. It needs brakes on all four wheels. It was a driver at one point long ago but a previous owner started to change out the brakes and it was never finished. It has oversized wheels and tires to make it a roller. Wheels and tires could be easily sold. I am downsizing and need the room. A great fun project for someone.”
