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 .

“I have a 1948 willys jeep body

A samurai rolling chassis with axles , transfer case , steering box , samurai steering column and driveshafts
1948 willys jeep frame
two windshield frames
Two hoods, tailgate, gas tank, and
one seat

My original plan was to put the 1948 body on the 1948 frame using the drivetrain from the samurai chassis. The 1952 remanufacture body was to be used to replace the floor and patching. Would be a killer deal for the right person.”

“I have a 1942 Ford GPW. I’ve owned it for around 18 years and it’s time for it to go. It has a flathead 6 cylinder that I’m told might be a studebaker. It ran about 2 years ago and I just topped driving it around because the brakes didn’t work. It’s currently non-op reg status with dmv. According to the data plates it was born on November 10th, 1942. Serial number 80041, which most likely puts it out of the ford plant in Richmond, Ca.”

(01/16/2018) This jeep is disassembled. The engine was scrubbed and repainted. I’ve included a pic of the jeep before it was disassembled at the bottom.
Prior to disassembly:
“I bought this Jeep around 2012 from a person in Ivins who had it sitting in his yard for 25 years. He replaced the engine with a known good running engine when he first got it. He turned the engine by hand a couple of times a year to keep it free.
I put a lot of work into it around 2012/2013
I lost interest, and it has literally sat outside here in Ivins since 2013. It’s still in similar shape, but I’m sure there’s a bit more rust. I never put it back together, so it’s in pieces right now.

This looks like a great price.

“1946 jeep willys cj2 and same era army trailer. Runs good needs some tlc 4×4. Clean title in nonop now.”
UPDATE: Seth alert me to On The Rox Fabrication and their Facebook page. The business creates custom parts for the Roxor that make it look more jeep-like. Here’s a pic showing a Jeep and a Roxor. At a quick glance, can you spot the Roxor?
The answer is that neither are jeeps (okay, so it was a misleading question). Both are Roxors.
Below are some of the parts made by On the Rox. I will be interested to see Jeep’s reaction one its legal staff becomes aware of the On The Rox products.
Original Post August 7, 2018: This post covered Jeep’s Filing with the FTC against Mahindra, the creator of the Roxor.
As many of you know, the Roxor is Mahindra’s newest jeep-like vehicle. It’s a non-highway vehicle capable of a max speed of 45 mph. It’s best thought of as a hybrid jeep/atv(aka side by side). When they were first introduced, many folks wondered how Mahindra could build and sell these in the US. And, furthermore, why wasn’t FCA (Jeep’s parent company) fighting this.
It seems FCA was simply biding it’s time and thinking about how to respond, because just the other day FCA filed a complaint with the FTC regarding the sale of the Roxor in the US. The core of the complaint rests on two principles.
It’s interesting to me that Jeep didn’t file a lawsuit against Mahindra for violating the terms of its contract. So, either it doesn’t violate those terms OR starting with the FTC is a simpler, cheaper option for now.
Mahindra did offer a response, claiming its “actions, products and product distribution (including Roxor) both honor the legacy of the relationship and the terms of our agreements with FCA.” This is a pretty boilerplate response. To me, it also suggests they didn’t try to work with FCA when planning the Roxor, but instead were hoping for forgiveness or expected protection vis-a-vis it’s license. Still, I’d be surprised if there were terms that allowed Mahindra to sell jeeps or jeep-like vehicles in the US.

Oh my … At least the price is right.

“Have a old 60s Jeep fc 150 ,4cyl hurricane, manual transmission,PTO, lockut hubs. Looks like everything is there. Three right rear lugs are broke off. Guessing that is why they quit using it. Body is fiberglass well built. Needs some work but one of a kind Jeep.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8500.
Looks like the battery box lid has been altered? I can’t quite tell. Seller describes the model as being an “MB”.
“1952 Willys Jeep (model MB) in great condition, 5,200 miles, was used in Koren war. $8500 OBO”
Looks wel built for running the Cascades.

(04/13/2018) This VEC sports a Bobcat fiberglass hood. The front frame rails could use a rebuild and the seller is very honest in photographing this (see pics on the ad).
https://lewiston.craigslist.org/cto/d/1946-willys-cj2a/6681342576.html
“Runs good with 1950’s Buick 225 v6, new carb, wires, plugs, points, cap and rotor. New battery, master cylinder, brakes, rubber brake lines, and new gauges. This Jeep has power steering, and steering stabilizer. Has original 3 speed manual and original t-case, 33 inch tires with 15 inch rims. The front and back differentials leak as well as the transmission and t-case, the frame from the front of the motor to the spring shackles is rusted, and needs rebuilt. Has new brakes, can be a daily driver, no trades, no holding, cash only”
Hasn’t been started in 10 years. It’s listed as a 1952, but looks to most likely a GPW with a CJ-2A grille and CJ hood.

“Jeep was parked in about 2009 when spouse got sick. Has not been moved or started since. It was my 20th wedding anniversary present. Time for me to move on.

“Original 1958 Willys CJ6 with 7,000 actual miles on it. It was manufactured into a brush truck by Hahn Manufacturing of Hamburg PA in 1958. It operated in service exclusively in a local fire department just miles from Hahn. Pumps need new gaskets, recently spent 2k on maintenance.”
Robert’s got this 3B for sale. He notes it needs some work.

This jeep lives on “No Name Lane”. If that were set in “No Name City”, I’d be all over that location (Paint Your Wagon reference …). The jeep would have to drop in price before I’d be all over it.
https://fairbanks.craigslist.org/cto/d/old-willys-jeep/6672314400.html
“48 Willys, CJ2, L Head, 4 CL, 12V, Extras.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
