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 .

(03/18/2017) Looks solid.
“Very solid rig looks to be a 70’s-80’s resto.
Odd fire 231 V6 headers and ignition upgrade to HEI
Other than the motor its the stock running gear.
Turns lots of heads and is a joy to drive or 4×4… makes my 4runner seem like its 2 wheel drive.
It could definitely use the steering upgrade.”

Craig shared this one. Hard to see how much value (or not) is here.
“I’m gauging interest in my homemade mini skidder. It’s a 1950ish Willys frame and drivetrain with a bulldozer cage and fairlead. It was running a year ago when I parked it to clean the carb. I need to get the carb hooked back up and get a battery on it to get it moving.
It’s a mile in the woods currently so I’ll be putting list of interested people together for viewing later in the summer.
It doesn’t have brakes. The clutch isn’t much and the starter skips once in a while. But the flathead ran smooth with minimal smoke, the 4×4 worked, and it steers.
I bought a crawler and an old farm tractor and I need to thin the herd.”
Not sure how much value is here.
“1946 Willys Jeep with clean, clear Washington Title. This is an original steel tub that is in so-so condition. Comes with grill and windshield frame and everything else shown in the picture.
It is sitting on a early Ford Bronco Chassis. Come with Ford 9 inch differentials front and rear as well as the Bronco 3 speed transmission and Dana 18 Transfer Case. It has a small block Ford in it now. I know nothing about the condition of this engine. Consider it a core. It has aluminum intake, headers, Accel Distributor etc. It also has a C4 transmission behind it.”

Thanks for all the kind thoughts! I didn’t make it out to the garage yesterday, but I felt good enough to do eWillys. As least the wild swings between fever and chills have subsided. I expect to be back in the garage today after running a few errands.
I think these are from Korea?
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
Jim shared these. Based on the front bumpers, I’d say 2 of these are 3As and 1 a 2A.

https://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/cto/6211504099.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
Seller listed the 2A as a 1957.
“1957 CJ2 Willys Jeep with 4 cylinder flat head engine, needs full restoration. — 1958 CJ3B Willys Jeep with 4 cylinder OHV Hurricane Engine. Needs restoration finished. (Both jeeps have good titles) — Also have extra complete OHV engine and one flat head engine in pieces. Lots of extra parts, frame, rear ends, transmission and transfer cases”
Seller wrote “$3” in the title, so I’m guessing it’s being sold for $3000?
“1944 Willys original motor/trans, new f/r lights, gauges, runs”
https://sacramento.craigslist.org/cto/6208828903.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000.
(06/12/2017) It needs some brake and possibly body work.
“Very good condition 1946 Willys. Body, Trans, Transfer case all solid. Needs some break work. The engine has been replaced with a 2300cc ford pinto. Runs well.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000.

“This is a 1943 willys and I’m selling it for a friend. It is 80% stock and it runs and drives nice, it comes with a soft top and tow bar. This jeep is in very good condition and ready for you to take it home!”
UPDATE: Price increased to $20k. Seller believes this was a 4wheel steer jeep. Based my research, 50 GPW 4WS were produced, but were they produced as late as 1943?
(07/11/2017) Seller thinks those tires and rims are original …. this has a gas tank in the rear.
“So I picked up this 1943 Willis flat fender ford built and it just so happens to be model gpw-4ws and that meens a lot actuall makes it a 4 wheel steering jeep that is one of the 50 they made.the rear steering is unhooked but its all there and the numbers are right on so as you can imagine my numbers are going up a lot.the last one that sold was a couple years ago n was in a lot worse shape then mine n went for 46,000 that being said mine only has 95000 miles it still has the original tires n wheels it also has a brand new top and original cast iron 4cyl engine n here’s the deal this thing is old n needs to be cherished n I need a jeep that is trail ready so if I sold it I would be asking 20,000 so any tj or rubicon 4dr and some cash works or just cash me out n double your money in a month or two at auction.i just want something that’s dependable for me to take my kids out in will do. ”
