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 .
Another Willys ad from Eastern Oregon. The ad was published Thursday, October 27, 1949, in the Heppner Gazette Times.
This has an interesting gizmo on the dash … looks similar to a tv remote. Possible a security addition?
https://denver.craigslist.org/cto/d/1958-jeep-willys/6554663400.html
“Titled as a 1958 Jeep. Has an excellent condition complete fiberglass body so no rust anywhere. It has a rebuilt SBC 283 with power pack heads out of a 58 Corvette with a brand new Edlebrock carb. It also has a Muncie 4 speed with all new clutch assembly. The tires are brand new with only about 10 miles on them. The top is in excellent shape with all good windows. The interior has all new carpet and new seats with new seatbelts along with a overhead console with an under dash stereo holder mounted to it and interior light. I have not had this Jeep vey long but have dumped a ton of money in it. I would like to find a Model A pickup so me and my dad could restore 1 more before he cant do it anymore. $9500.”
UPDATE: As the commenters below noticed, you’ll want to take a close look at the tires.
Could be worth a look.

“Here is my 1948 CJ2A. Currently has brand new brakes and lines, brand new head gasket, battery, and radiator. Frame and Tub are very clean, Engine runs very well, just burns oil when cold. Oil pressure is strong as seen in picture of gauges. Clutch, trans, and transfer case feel very good and 4wd works great on this jeep. I’m firm on the price but open to offers, no trades. I have extra seats, fabric and lights in the back of the jeep as well as a bikini top, before the jeep looked like this it used to be a military replica and the previous owner painted it red.”
Has some minor mods. Looks promising.

https://inlandempire.craigslist.org/cto/d/1949-willys-jeepster-easy/6554792696.html
“This is a 1949 Willys Jeepster Phaeton Project. It is nearly complete and the body and frame have been media blasted, The frame was then primered and painted gloss black enamel w/hardener. The body has no dents and was primered. This will make an easy restoration project, a killer hot rod project or a gnarly off roader. It is all original with no modifications and comes with the original 3 speed transmission with overdrive.
There is no engine but I have a GM 3.8 V6 available. These will accommodate engines from the original 4 cyl. flathead to a small block V8. Parts for these cars are readily available and inexpensive from several sources both new and used.
These are the last of the Phaetons that were produced and there were only about 6000 1949’s made. These Phaetons were only made for 3 years. I have owned a jeep like this before and they are a blast to drive as everyone who sees it gives you the thumbs up and crowds around it when you park.”

https://muncie.craigslist.org/cto/d/jeep-commando/6552229052.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $200.
Price is for all.
“I’ve got 3 of them. Asking $200 for the lot.
#1 with block casting # 641087. It has been rebuilt, sometime pre-1975 as that’s when the shop closed. The serial #states it is a 3J motor though. Comes with carb, trans, tc, and whatever other accessories are attached. Serial # 3J-12582.
#2 with 641087 casting is this truck motor, which was kept indoors, said to have been rebuild and never used. Have not verified this. Still has paper stuffed inside the intake and exhaust ports. Serial # 2T-19742 I think. No trans/tc attached
#3 is 638632 block casting, serial # is J-87149. No trans/tc attached.”
