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 .
I don’t think I’ve seen this photo. That looks to be an early GPA to me.

It’s different.
“I built this bar about 8 months ago out of an unrestorable 50s Jeep Willys Wagon. Thought that it would be a great center piece for the man cave I was going to build. It has working Edison Light Bulbs. My wife informed me after building it that my young children would not be allowed near it because it has rust on it. Oh well. It is up for sell. $1000 boo.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9,000.
“Completely rebuilt in 1990
Very clean.
Includes soft sided doors”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000.
Looks like it’s in good shape.
“This is my 1955 willys cj5. It has been my pride and joy for the last 12years, and I am ready to let someone else enjoy this wonderful vehicle.
It is a blast to drive, and great to look at! It was fully restored in 2006. It served me as my Daily driver all through high school and then some years after. It has been kept indoors for the last 10 years. The more kids we have the less it gets driven, and it is depressing to see it set and not get used. I would rather have someone enjoy it than have it set in my garage with the other “toys” I don’t use anymore.
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $4600.
Runs and drives.
“1957 Jeep fc150 runs good needs gas line cleaned from sitting can hear run call”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $5000.
(09/14/2017) Could be worth a look.
“It can be used as a recreational or farm/ranch vehicle currently. It would need more work to become street legal. The engine starts and runs nice. It has a new aluminum radiator and never gets close to overheating. I’ve also recently installed new gas tank, lines and fuel pump, along with a new five year battery. The tires have great tread for the mud. All the gauges and lights work, but recently cracked the back light covers, which is a cheep and easy fix.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000.
The VIN is listed at 179486, which would make it a ’48.
“V8 small block engine
good conditions
off road
very good”
This has rack and pinion steering? I’m curious to see how that was setup.
“1946 Willys Jeep. First year civilian model. Buick V-6, Rack and pinion steering, 4 wheel disc brakes, rhino lined tub, new gauges and distributor in 2010, reupholstered Camaro seats and new fuel tank in 2011. Also has front and rear hitches and front tow bar. Good Michelin tires.
No I don’t want to trade for anything. No I won’t take your fake check and hold it for a few days while your shipper arrives no matter how interested you are. The bottom line is I don’t need help selling it and scammers won’t get anywhere.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
Could use some better pics, but it sounds like there’s potential here.
“Runs and drives, in fairly decent shape.”
UPDATE: **SOLD**… Was $150.
Looks like a CJ-5 top, but I can’t tell for sure.
“Hard top and doors is for 52 Willy in fair condition minor rust”
There could be value here. It’s a project.
“This is a rare military jeep. Text me if interested $2,500. Project jeep it has a Dana axels and transfer case.”

(10/15/2016) Interesting side step on this CJ-6.

This October 1954 photo and caption from Kaiser Willys News underscores how confident Willys Motors was about the coming year and their new CJ-5 model. About this time there was an explosion of new brochures and mailers, so Willys Motors did what it could to generate excitement about the commercial and utility market.
This is a neat piece.

That’s a stark photo, but also a very thoughtful one if the photographer is correct.
“1946 Press Photo Jeeps and Studebaker Trucks That Helped Russia Win the War. This is an original press photo. This is typical of the destruction of Stalingrad, where workers and farmers pitched in to help the Red Army hold. These two Russian Chauffeurs say jeeps and studebaker trucks helped Russia win the war. They suggested Strohm take this picture so he could tell the American people they appreciated the things we sent them in lend-lease. Photo measures 9 x 7.25 inches. Photo is dated 10-04-1946.”

(08/19/2017) Doug spotted this one. It’s a column shift. No view of the driver’s side provided.
“1946 Willys CJ2a Jeep for sale. Family owned since new. Very good condition, has snowplow and power takeoff (both rarely used).”
https://chicago.craigslist.org/wcl/cto/d/46-willys-cj2a-jeep/6349694237.html
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $4500.
It appears this is a CJ-3A with a DJ-3A body. Looks like a fun little rig. It is 2WD now.
“This 1951 Willys has been in the family for over 20 years. It’s a neat cruise around car perfect for parades. The complete driveline has been changed over to an early 90’s Ford Mustang. 4 cyc. motor-trans and rearend. The seats from the mustang were also used and reupholstered. This summer, we replaced all 4 tires and inner/outer tie rods. Possibly open to trades.“
Nice looking 2A with a few updates.

“I have a 49 Willys jeep for sale. New master cylinder, windshields, tune up, etc. the price is $ 5,000 cash. Might consider some trades / partial trades, but probably not. No projects. I really don’t need something to drive.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000.
Looks good. Appears to just need some final touches.

Glenn spotted this one. There may be some parts value given the winch and PTO setup.
“1960 Jeep Wagoneer Willys. PTO winch. 6 cylinder. Strong running gear.”
