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: **SOLD** Was $1500.
Runs.
“**PRICE REDUCED** This is a fun little right hand drive jeep that I drove in high school but I don’t have much use for it anymore. I have replaced lots of parts on it including rear shocks, replaced brake master cylinder, fuel filter, air filter, fan belt, I did a transmission flush, oil change and a lot more simple stuff. It does run and drive but does need a little work to be super reliable”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1795.
It’s a left hand dispatcher.
“1972 DJ-5 Jeep, Left Hand Steer

This has some mods including changes to the steering, engine, front cross member and dash. The body has also had work done to it. The seller includes a pic that purports to show the values of a CJ-2A based on Haggerty insurance.
“1947 WILLY’S MILITARY STYLE JEEP
Dad graduated from High School in 1947 so he had to have a 47. The motor has been rebuilt and the vehicle has newly upholstered seats and a vinyl cab. It has no tail gate which makes it military style I am told. This partial restoration comes with a vintage first aid kit. It will start on the first turn. . . . if it has enough gas.”

Thanks to Jim for sharing his old club’s design with us. I just love these old jeep club placard designs! The Hill-N-Gully Riders Jeep Club was founded in 1956 in Riverside, California. The club still exists today and has a presence on Facebook.
Steve shared this early photo of a BRC-60 at the Smithsonian.

UPDATE: A great press photo of the experimental Rolligon jeep (More info on the Rolligon from a 2013 post shown below). This just expired on eBay, but I expect it will be relisted. I’ll watch for it. There’s a long article from the June 04, 1955, issue of the Saturday Evening Post here.
“1953 Press Photo Man Driving Albee Rolligon Jeep Like Vehicle. You are bidding on an original press photo of Man Driving Albee Rolligon Jeep Like Vehicle. Photo has a small light crease left edge & waving right side due to too much glue being used to attach the information sheet onto the back of the photo. Photo measures 6 x 10 inches and is dated 3/20/1953.”
================== ==================
Originally published 2013 .. You’ll note the one pictured above seems to be the same as the one in the swamp, based on the hood number.
This jeep was built by the Albee Rolligon Company, which also built an FC version. William Albee, the inventor, has a son who rode on the FC version. You can see a comment from his son at hemmings.
“This is an original press photo. Credit- US Navy and United PressPhoto measures 9.25 x 7.25inches. Photo is dated –1953.”
The above pictures was published on page 165 of the March 23, 1953, issue of Life Magazine. You can view it in Google without the watermark. It’s still pretty dark. There are several issues of the magazine for sale on eBay. There is also a story about the roll-on in the September 1955 Readers Digest, originally published in the Saturday Evening Post (date unknown).
This is one way to tour Ohio in ’46.

The dash on the passenger side has been modified. This is a former Fire Jeep.
“Selling my 1953 M38A1 Military jeep. Prior to me buying this it had been sitting for 5 years. It was used by a rural Fire dept before that. So the fire dept added the rear rack. Replaced the seats with buckets from god only knows where.
The good is this jeep has very little rust, fuel Tank has been steam cleaned and coated. New batteries & fuel pump have been installed (it is still a 24 volt system) starts runs shifts and drives. Brakes are sketchy and will need attention. Clearly the jeep has oversized tires and wheels. The wiring will need some attention. The always bent and broken front fenders are near perfect. This is a great stump jumper or restoration project. Priced right.”
Thanks to Dan for sharing thins one. It looks like a great rebuild candidate.
“1948 48 Willys Overland Jeep Panel Delivery 2wd. These make great hot rat street rods! Has not run in years and will need work to get it there but it is so very cool with the patina and all…
The only rust is at the lower cowl to front fender area — otherwise very solid.
Barn doors in back are way nicer than the tail gate I think.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $300.
The half cab is apparently a cut down half cab
“A Willys CJ6 for parts, no title…has no engine, transmission or transfer case. Does have the radiator and axles. The body is a bit rough but could be massaged, however the half cab is made from the full top cut down, has bulkhead welded in. Has rollup windows in the doors, make of top is unknown. Does have seats and instruments. the firewall is uncut, also has heater. Tailgate is pretty nice. Believed to be an ex highway dept vehicle, since it’s DOT yellow under the faded red. lots of good parts here”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $650.
