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 .
The door side panels on this look interesting. Perhaps a faux bamboo look??

(12/13/2017) Seller is in the process of fixing this up, but must sell. has a gov plate.
“1961 Willys 4X4 Overland Wagon. Rare ranch doors, the 226 Hurricane flat head 6 motor was rebuilt by A&F motors 3,500. and has no more than 1,000 miles on it. The engine compartment was repainted when the motor was rebuilt. The truck runs and drives great starts right up every time. Carb was rebuilt 6 months ago. I was in the process of restoring this vehicle but have to move in less than 60 days. Must sell. I restored a 1959 8 years ago and it brought 15,900 on Ebay.
This is an easy project does need body work and paint. You can rat rod it as is. That seems to be what everyone is doing these days. Nice interior and rat rod exterior. The side windows, seats frames. cushions, headliner are out of the vehicle except for the driver and passenger side windows and front windshield and both rear glass All the glass is there along with all interior side moldings. The side panels are in good shape and the oak floor strips are in nice shape and are solid. The left rear wheel well has some rust through about 9 inches long as seen in the picture.
Not sure how much value is here.

Looks in good shape.
“This Jeep was completely rebuilt 10 years ago with a frame off restoration. Rebuilt original 4 cyl motor and transmission, new tub, new wiring, new Firestone military NDT tires, many new or reconditioned parts. My goal was to return it to as near new condition as possible, and it’s been continuously garaged and driven just 1100 miles since the restoration. This is as close as you will get to owning a new, 1947 Willys CJ 2A and is nothing but fun to drive. I’d like to see it go to a good home.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4250.
Not quite “unmolested”, but pretty close. It appears to be a “Lefty”. The top is interesting. Whether custom or dealer offered I couldn’t say.
“A True Survivor and Garage Find. Everything is original and unmolested. From the estate of my father, Gordon Churchwell, he purchased it new and registered until the mid 80’s. Afterwards it was used around the farm for recreational use. In addition, there are several photos showing a rare back seat, fog lamps, a mesh grill, a tow bar, original heater, the original canvas doors, spare tire, and other misc parts. The top he made from marine plywood and fiberglass coated as he spent his years in retirement restoring antique wooden boats. It can be easily removed. It isn’t currently running and will need restorative work. All items pictured is included in the sale. Pick up only and transport is responsibility of buyer..”
Has a number of updates.

Ted spotted this one on Barn Finds. The starting price on this is $13k. It’s supposed to have only 7900 miles. View all the information on eBay
“True barn find survivor recently pulled from back of dry metal shed after a long 10+ year storage. Main pic is where it sat, then pics after pulled.. Always in Texas was always just a hunting vehicle, rarely if ever used on the street. Runs and drives although does have an exhaust leak and heater core is bypassed and needs to be replaced. Two of the heat control cables are broken. Small dent in lower right rear quarter. Very solid, original driveline, runs drives, shifts and stops, stays cools, good oil pressure, doesn’t smoke, lights work, glass excellent, paint all original in useable shape, tires new, has original spare, clear title in my name. New brake master cylinder. Have the two original white soft doors, but do not have the rest of the original white half soft top. I don’t believe there are many out there this original with this low original miles for under $20k. Motor even still has all the smog gear on it.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2850.
Could be a good price. Appears to include the winch.
