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 $750.
Maybe some value here?
I have a Jeep CJ-3a project for sale. It is a rolling frame and body. The body is in pretty good shape considering. I don’t see any major rust. I have a tailgate and I think I have the fenders & hood. This would be a cool rock crawler or mud truck project.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.
Rough. Includes an extra tub.
“Selling a Jeep Willys CJ2A. As you can see from the pictures, it does not run. The motor does turn by hand and the transmission/transfer case seems to shift like it should. The body is mostly rusted. The grill is solid. With the Jeep comes 2 spare axles, 1 front with manual locking hubs and 1 rear. Also I have another steering box and quite a bit of other small parts. Selling as is, no title. Text for any more information. Thanks. Asking $1000 OBO. Make me an offer. I’m also throwing in another body tub. It does not have as much rust and the floor has been patched by a previous owner.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $300.
This is a good price. It also includes 2 rims.
“2 dj front axels
Also 2 4 bolt wheels”
Lots of new parts, but there’s a lot of work left for an $11,000 2A.

(03/18/2017) “1954 Willys Jeep in all original condition except for the paint job, which is his favorite color. This is my grandpas Jeep and he has owned it for 30+ years. Used primarily for getting some popcorn from the popcorn stand on sundays and taking a drive through town at about 25 mph. Also used for a parade each year as well. He has the original jump seat for the back and the original complete top for it as well. I believe it is a soft top.
He told me it has 11,000 miles on it. I thought it was more like 16,000, but I could be wrong… So it’s either around 11,000, but no more 16,000… And again, all original. Has been well kept and well maintained over the years. However, I don’t think he’s driven it for a few years now due to it getting a little difficult to get in and out of, so it may need to be freshened up a little bit. Always use to start as soon and as quick as you could push the button and always purred like a kitten. Feel free to contact me with questions and or offers and I will pass them on to my grandpa and communicate back to you that way.”

I don’t think I’ve seen this photo. That looks to be an early GPA to me.
“1942 Press Photo U.S Army Amphibious Jeep Proceeds into swollen Ohio River. This is an original press photo. Turning off the highway it proceeds into the swollen Ohio River between Fort Knox and Louisville. The Propeller is put in motion and its Ship Ahoy. Photo measures 10 x 8.25 inches. Photo is dated 04-10-1942.”

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.”
https://easttexas.craigslist.org/cto/d/1946-cj-2a-jeep-willy/6350558311.html
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.
“A work of art in progress, I’ve put in considerable $$$ into this project: rebuilt engine, new suspension, major body work and some other restoration
Must sell due to financial circumstances, I have OVER $11k into this rig, am willing to take a loss just to get some cash (lost job, must move) – receipts available for all work done
only 50k units ever made (fewer than 2k/year from 1955-1971)
Original (rebuilt) “Hurricane” F-134 engine , T-90 3-speed w/OD tranny, Dana 18 T-case, Dana 25 rear w/5:38 granny low, Full White Top/Doors, Custom Made Black Bikini Top, Roll Bar, Hi-Lift Jack, Lockable Storage Box, Swing-Down Towbar, PTO Outlet, All New Tires, All New Brake Cylinders”
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.
