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: **SOLD** Was $1500.
Ran when parked ten years ago.
“1946 willys. Sat in a feild for 10 years but ran when parked. I haven’t gotten it running but it is pretty complete. My guess is it needs a battery carburetor and spark plugs but very well could eed more than that. Would make a great parts truck or farm vehicle. Apparently it’s pretty easy to get a title for these things but it doesn’t have one now.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000.
(03/20/2018) Has some alterations.
“PRICE DROP… 1953 willys CJ3B- clean rig with no rust. Upgraded Saginaw steering and is equipped with a Ford 302 engine. Includes clean soft top and doors. Has full roll cage under soft top. Serious inquires only. Has clean title. Will consider traded for equal value obo”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1495.
Looks like some value here. P# on the windshield.
“1948 CJ2A. This is NOT an actual military Jeep, someone just painted it up to look like one. Originally bought it to part out, but decided against it because it is mostly all there and very restorable for someone looking for a good project. (We have 2 others, don’t need a 3rd project!) This one has no title, it hasn’t run at all since I’ve had it. Engine turns over, it isn’t locked up or anything. Engine has WWII Ford GPW cylinder head, but the block is a later model. T90 transmission. Body is solid, but rusty (like most of them) and has had some shoddy repair work done over the years (like all of them). Price is negotiable, but I won’t give it away. I know what these things are worth and they aren’t making anymore of them! I live in Bowling Green, but the Jeep is located at my Dad’s house in Danville, KY.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Nice USCG-related photo.
“1943 Press Photo Patrol Jeep Checks Out With Guard Before Leaving Pigeon Key, FL. This is an original press photo. To the U.S. Coast Guard falls the task of guarding Florida’s overseas highway, which links Key West, site of a naval operating base, with the mainland. at Pigeon Key, midway on the 7-mile bridge, is a Coast Guard patrol base. Here a jeep on patrol checks out with the guard before leaving the base. Photo measures 10 x 8.5 inches. Photo is dated 3-16-1943.”
Rick shared this manual. I’m sure someone can use it.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was sold at auction.
This plow jeep with a half cab was spotted for auction by Bill. At #10212, it’s an early 3A.
“3 Speed Manual – 4×4 – Snow Plow (27″ x 81″) Auctioneer Notes: Runs, Drives and Shifted on Test Drive – To Insure Durability We Accelerated The RPM’s To 1500 In Neutral For For 60 Seconds w/o Issues Noted – Key In Office – Sells As/Is w/ Clear Title – Miles are EXEMPT on vehicles over 10 years old in State of Idaho – See Pictures For Vin & Miles”

“All original runs good has overdrive”
Has a PTO of some type.

“1950 Willy’s Jeepster. All original. Four cylinder, three speed. Wide white wall tires with wire wheels. New top and side windows.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5600.
(08/01/2018) It’s got a funky grille.
“1946 Willys Jeep

Re-built engine with less than 200 miles YES, less than 200 miles is right😎
Upgraded to 12 volt electrical system, electric fuel pump, easy start
4 wheel drive

Looks like a good price.

“Jerry cans are in great condition”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $300.
(08/27/2018) Very few of these fastback, or angled back, soft tops around. It requires a rollbar of the right size to work. Seller is not clear whether it is for a CJ-5/M-38A1 or a Flattie.
“I have this top that is brand new never installed (not sure year and model know it is for a flat fender you will need to try), it is the type that does not require hardware, mounts directly on the roll bar ( that yes you need to have it ), from the roll bar goes down with an angle to the tub.”
Given the good condition, this must be a reproduction body.

“NICE FORD GPW JEEP BODY READY TO INSTAL.
SELLING DO TO BAD HEALTH.

Looks like there is some value here.

“Selling ’57 willys overland jeepster, has been sitting but was running well, I have not tried to start it. Price negotiable, cash talks, need it gone.”
Ken’s got this CJ-2A/DJ-3A combo for sale. It looks to have the DJ-3A body and chassis, but 4WD parts (probably from a ’46 2A) have been added to it.

“I am selling our family’s 1946 CJ-2A. We have owned it since 1982 and it has always been stored in a garage. It is located in Wyocolo, WY which is about 45 miles SW of Laramie, WY on the Wyoming/Colorado state line. I would like to sell it in the next few weeks. Please email me with serious offers.”
Next Updates Monday
The “Just a Car Guy” website featured fire fighting jeeps in a “European Fire Fighting jeeps” post (at least some of which came from the CJ-3B Page).
http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2018/07/european-willys-fire-fighting-jeeps.html
Another interesting item in the 1957 Berg’s Truck and Parts Co (Aka the King of Jeeps) Catalog was this “Jeep King” hardtop advertisement, for both half and full-size tops. It looks like it’s a private branding of the Beck (or Kemco) Jeep Cabs, because the door has the split window. As far as I know, that wasn’t available on the Kelly hardtops manufactured by Kelly Manufacturing (which is the company Kemco became).Also, the Kemco had the small window on the half cab, as does the Jeepking half cab.
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $7500.
Travis shared this M-38. It looks like a good price.
