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: Price dropped to $400.
(12/08/2017) Roger’s got this set of dual wheel adapters for sale. One side of the adapter has been welded onto 15″ rims. These appear to be the same unknown adapters as the sets seen in #5 on this list. If you’d like to know more, contact Roger at 937-477-5270.
The seller indicates this is a 1959-60, but the 0-8 King Seeley speedometer suggests it was early 1956. The seller also has a fiberglass body to sell.
“YESTERDAYS PROJECT.. Too many projects going on, this one has to go. The Jeep drove to it’s present resting spot, it has seal problems, I think it was leaking oil badly. It comes with the plow, and I also own a Fiberglass body that I need to sell. I checked and thought it was the correct wheelbase, but needs to be checked for sure. The price is for the Jeep, not the fiberglass body..”

There seems to be some value here in the tires and rims.

“Old Willy’s. Axles are good, and the engine will crank, but it doesn’t run and drive. Be Good yard art or use drive train for parts.
Update due to so many questions.
I have the original 134 engine. I have extra clutch, radiators, starter, generator, seat frames and original filters, etc. Some from this Jeep it and Other parts are from a 1948. All the parts go with it. I also have old registration papers through the 70s and 80s on it as well.

(10/28/2017) Runs and plows.
“1957 FC-150 with Western snow plow harness. Serial # 13638. Runs fine used for plowing and hauling fire wood. Need some body attention. Lower crack in windshield.”
UPDATE: Roger added the following information … Harold, the guy who sold me the FC Scale Model, said his Dad’s dealership was in Sherman Jeep in Maryland. His Dad had the dealership from approximately 1958 to 1985. He said when he was a kid he went with his Dad to Toledo, Ohio, to pick up new Jeeps.
Roger Martin purchased this metal FC-170 model the other day. It was owned by guy who owned a jeep dealership for twenty-five years. The owner kept this FC model on his desk. The size of this is 6 1/4″ long x 3″ wide x 2 3/4 tall. Obviously, the rear tires are incorrect … anyone know where rims and tires similar to the front wheels could be purchased?
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $15,000.

Between the overdrive, the cage, the rear basket, and the winch, there’s value here. Looks like the King Seely Speedo is intact, too.

Peter noted that it looks like the driver side front spring is bent near the front shackle.
Ted shared this jeep. It has a few updates, including a spray liner on the interior and underside.
“Offered here is a 1946 Civilian Willys Jeep. This driver comes out of an estate and collection of fine automobiles. The in-house mechanic states that the engine and transmission have been rebuilt and the brakes are in good working order. Newer paint was applied and the vehicle shows well. The floors and undercarriage plus the inside of the fenders have been undercoated. A roll bar has been installed. The windshield glass on the driver’s side has a crack and will need replacement. Some paint bubbling was noticed also on the windshield frame. This is a no-nonsense little cruiser. Perfect for running around town, as a grocery-getter, a vehicle for advertising, parades or simply to show and enjoy. The vehicle is currently on display at the Murphy Automobile Museum in Oxnard, California.”
This has an early windshield. It also has a floor shift, though the pics don’t show if it was once a column shift or not.
“This is a very very early civilian jeep, perhaps the very first few that rolled off after the war as it still has the MB body. Originally came with the rare column shift but later converted to stick on floor. All original drive train. Starts right up but needs restoration. Body is very solid with some bondo. Original Arizona vehicle last licensed in 1970. A great project that can be worth getting into. Serious enthusiasts only please.”

This includes a second engine and tranny. The jeep has a ventilating windshield and a PTO winch.
“This is a rare 1957 Willys Civilian jeep. What makes it so rare is the type of windshield frame that it came with, and the factory Koenig PTO driven winch. I purchased a little over a year ago with the intentions of restoring it. Just haven’t had the time to start on it. The engine was disassembled and sitting in the rear
Of the tub when I purchased it. I hunted down a good running replacement engine that also had a good transmission connected to it. The running engine and trans is included in the sale of this jeep. The jeep has very little rust and a great patina. It’s a unmolested survivor, meaning it hasn’t had `modifications done to it. It’s never even had a roll cage installed on it. It wouldn’t take much to restore it, or just install the engine and get it on the road again. A Willys in this condition is a rare find.
My research:
This jeep was first sold to a orange grower in the Chino/Corona, CA area and used to drive around and tend to a Orange grove. Some years later a man in the high desert here bought it and
brought it home. He disassembled the engine and let it sit for many years. When he passed away I purchased it from his family.
I have the title. $2,000.00 is what I’ll take for it. Serious inquiries only. No low ballers, The price is firm. Price was just reduced from $2,500.00”
Has some unique updates.

This is a hard-to-beat price!

This might have a set of Kelly Hubs on it.
“Got this project passed on to me a few months ago and I just don’t have the time or money to put into it. It is basically a rolling chassis with a few extra pieces and parts. It has the original drivetrain but I’m not sure if any of it works. The front end is all there but fenders will need to be replaced. I just need to get rid of it and get it out of the yard. $500 OBO”
