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 .
Nice looking 2A that has a dual PTO.

(12/21/2017) Appears to have an f-head.
https://medford.craigslist.org/cto/d/1948-willys-jeep/6646179689.html
“This Willys Jeep is an 1948 CJ2a. The “a” stands for agriculture, it was post-war Jeep’s first model made for the civilian market.
It has a mid-mount PTO, and the original flathead engine was replaced by the next series, the Hurricane motor with overhead valves. That’s why the carburetor cover sticks through the hood. No power steering. One seat belt
It has new brakes, carb, windshield glass and seals, seat covers and cushions, and runs good.”
This appears to be a CJ-3A.
https://newjersey.craigslist.org/cto/d/1952-willys-jeep/6646932077.html
“This is a 1952 Willys Jeep, its rust free and was redone to look like a military model. It runs great but needs some brake work. Im in the process of doing some brake work and if not it can be reflected on the final price. This is one tough durable jeep and they have a good history behind these jeeps. This jeep has been gerage kept after its restoration. Its in better shape than others that are asking thousands more. It also comes with a fitted cover.”
Has a new steel body.

“Willys FC170…unk year between 1957-1964
This project is fairly complete although the bed is missing (hey, that just means you can go whatever direction you like). Original gauges and mfg ser# plate are gone. Everything else appears to be there. The frame and drivetrain are intact with the original 6cyl Super Hurricane motor.
Wheels have been sandblasted and painted. Brand new front windshield (difficult to source). Cab is off the frame as shown and it’s just about ready to be sandblasted.”

“1940- Ford Pygmy during testing at Camp Holabird. The Ford Pygmy is the pilot vehicle submitted by Ford Motor Company in response to the U.S. Army’s requirement for a “light reconnaissance and command car” during the military buildup prior to World War II. It is the only known survivor of the original pilot vehicles built by Bantam, Willys, and Ford and tested by the Army. Photo measures approx. 6 3/4″ x 8 3/4″ ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4800.
Could be worth a look.
“1948 Willys CJ2A.
Jeep has several updates including rebuilt T-90 transmission, new clutch and new brake lines. Repro steering wheel, carb and electric fuel pump.
Motor runs good, has good compression and doesn’t smoke. Transmission shifts good and does not pop out of second gear like may of this era with worn tranny parts. The 9-inch shoe brakes stop, but could use some more adjusting or an upgrade.
The body overall is in great shape but hat channels could use some attention.
Comes with a semi-rare and working Ramsey front PTO winch.
When new, these Jeeps were marketed as somewhere between a truck and a tractor, so if you’re expecting a old Jeep that rides like a slightly used Wrangler, this isn’t for you. But if you’re looking for an excellent restoration candidate that’s very similar to what won World War II, consider this one.
Converted to 12 volt with alternator.
Pics without top are older. Pic of jeep rear does not show drawbar and hitch that is now mounted and included.
Needs some tweaking but it’s a running, driving, stopping project.
$4800 or will consider good offer. Not interested in trades at this time. I don’t need to sell, just have too many projects/toys.
Clear title.
Four cylinder, 60 hp Willys “Go Devil” L-head engine
Transmission: T-90
Transfer case: Dana 18

Barry added some useful information to the Newgren story. Check it out at Farm Jeep:
http://farmjeep.blogspot.com/2018/07/more-newgren-history-thanks-to-ewillys.html
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $8000.
Starts and runs, but needs brake work.
“This is a barn find. It’s from an estate and been covered up in storage for several decades. It’s a 1943 Willys MB in pretty much original condition. It starts good, runs good and drives good with no smoke but it does need brake work . Transmission and transfer case both shift good and don’t slip out of gear. Good frame, it does need a little floor work but the rest of the body is really solid. I had to clean the fuel system and replace the fuel pump and spark plugs. Other than that and seat belts it seems to be all original. The stock wiring is in pretty good shape, the headlights and taillight work, starter works. Good oil pressure. The manual wipers are good, the engine starting crank is still stored in it’s original position. It comes with five combat rims and Goodyear NDT military tread tires all in good usable condition with no air leaks. This has never been titled and comes with a bill of sale only.”
Funky custom truck. Has a working dump bed.
