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: Paul noticed the unusual installation of the steering box.
Needs some work. Seller must sell.

Dan spotted this one. Could be a Parkway Conversion.
“1958 Willys Wagon with pretty rare rear ambulance style doors for sale.
There is no motor or transmission, but I do have the original drive shafts.
It is 4wd and has a PTO driven winch on the front of it.
Body work has been done and it is painted Army green, windows are currently out of it – but come with it.”
Looks like there could be value here.

“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. I believe it may be a 1948. Selling as is, no title. Text for any more information. Thanks. Asking $1000 OBO. Make me an offer.”
UPDATE: Here is a brochure and some directions/schematics for the rare Sierra Dana 20 Overdrive.
The Sierra Overdrive was designed to mount to a Dana 20.
In November of 1980, Pickup, Van & 4WD Magazine published this article on overdrives, which includes several I hadn’t heard about. This series of article images comes from Christian Harrison (and thanks to Marty Tilford for spotting it). The scans aren’t perfect, but are mostly readable. You can find a similar article at the Four Wheeler Network.
Particularly interesting to me is the Dana 20-mounted Sierra Overdrive. Willie Worthy of Four Wheeler was involved in the development of it, but noted that a lack of capital doomed it.
Must be an early jeep given the solid rims.
“1942- Camouflaged Willys Jeep fitted with a Browning M1917 machine gun crossing a jungle stream.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Were on eBay.
Nick is selling this set of early Free-Lock hubs.
“Very rare Free-Lock hubs for a Willys Jeep. Only a handful of surviving sets known on the Jeep forums. These were taken off a running Jeep and appear to be working well. All parts needed to install are included.”
This is an interesting CJ-3B body. Either it is some strange aftermarket body or it’s an MB body that’s been modified with a higher cowl to mimic a CJ-3B body.
“1953 Willys CJ3B tub, fenders, hood, and grille. Sitting on later model CJ frame and running gear. Both have been narrowed to fit the tub width. Have Washington state title. $550 obo.”

It has a few updates, but looks good for the price.
“I have a 1955 willys jeep cj 4×4, Buick v6 231 oddfire w/3spd trans. Brand new seats, great hunting rig, hot rod, or wheeler…Registered and clean title! Possible trade for tractor, or 4×4 truck”

This jeep has some polish to it. The bumper looks unique (possibly a dealer add-on?) and the rims are old school. It may even have a stainless windshield.
“1958 WILLYS CJ 5 jeep. Shelby 289 v8. Warn winch, warn overdrive “awesome”, new top, nice tires, 8 track. Unmolested rig. A true survivor. Nevada rig. Always stored inside.”

1951 Willy’s CJ-3A Jeep (Civilian / M-38 Military Clone)
Serial# 3J77908
This jeep is privately owned and 100% turn-key. Selling only because I have multiple project vehicles and no time to enjoy this one anymore. It’s a great weekend cruiser and gets lots of attention wherever it goes. Truly classic Korean War era jeep that would be a great addition to any collectors line up.
I purchased this jeep from a farm in upstate NY and was my fixer-upper project back in 2009. I have the clean title in-hand, exempt status, antique registered w/ period correct tag, recent oil change, new tires, and only needs a few minor repairs to make it perfect. I have put only 1,500 miles on it since purchased, no accidents, adult owned, garage kept, never seen rain or snow, never off-road, non-smoker and no dents or dings, 46k original miles on drive train. I start it every weekend and take it for a short ride to keep her running. Continue reading
