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 $2000.
It might have a Bobcat fiberglass body.

“1951 Willys CJ3A Jeep, L-134 engine, T90 manual 3 speed transmission, Dana 18 transfer case, Dana 25 front differential, Dana 44 rear differential. Engine runs very well but has 50 psi compression (a bit weak). Shifts great, drives good. “Mile Marker” MM front locking hubs. Solid body and frame, no rust. New carter carburetor, new gas tank, like new soft top, great tires. Basically a real nice rig.”

(07/15/2018) Hasn’t been run in 3 years. Includes a matching trailer.
“1957 Jeep FC150.
– Been in the family for about 30 years
– Rhino lined truck bed and interior about 20 years ago
– New exterior paint about 15 years ago
– Original engine (Hurricane 4 Cylinder), transmission (3 Speed Manual with Overdrive), etc. with some modifications (overdrive and locking hubs added before initial purchase)
– The engine turns over but it won’t completely run on it’s own. I suspect that the fuel pump is the issue but I’m not certain. The engine isn’t seized though. Last started and ran about 3 years ago.
– Comes with a matching trailer.
– I have some original manuals and sales material that I would provide with it.
Please call, text, or email with any questions.”
It is not running at the moment.

Matt’s got this old truck for sale. He’s clearing out some of his jeep collection for a VEC project.
“I have a 1951 Willys pickup truck in need of a new home. The truck is in pretty rough shape. The cab has a lot of rust and part of the frame has weak spot. It does not have a bed or seat however the rest is there. It has a flathead ford V8 that ran not too long ago. It does still have the stock willys transmission and transfer case. It also has a lift and pump setup for a plow but I do not have the blade. It is mostly a parts vehicle or could be restored with a lot of work. I have too many other projects in the works and would rather see someone use it. Bill of sale only. Asking $900 obo. Call/text or email. If the ad is still up, it is still available. Thank you”
Could be a good price.

While returning from our short camping trip, we spotted this 3B motoring down I-84 at 60MPH heading from Pendleton to Echo, Oregon. It was perfect weather for a jeep drive.

Mike shared this interested GPW build. It was a former Navy Sea Bee Jeep.
View all the information on eBay

Drives great at freeway speeds as well as off roading fun.”
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $25,000.
A reader alerted me to this one. I am told it was recently listed at $10,000 by the former owner. It’s now listed at $25,000 by someone who appears to believe this is a WWII jeep. Maybe the $25k isn’t a serious price, as the seller is willing to negotiate.

TJ spotted this one. It looks like a good price.
“I have a decent 1965 Jeep CJ5 body. The tub is not perfect but a lot better than a lot of them out there. It has normal dents, dings and stress cracks that you would expect for being over 50 years old. The floors are in good shape for originals. It has the dash board with speedometer, Firewall has not been cut up. There are two hoods, two right front fenders, two left front fender and one grill. The front sheet metal is all fairly rough and might be savable to the right person. You can purchase all the body parts for $350.00 or I can add the Oregon title with matching vin. tag for $450.00.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
