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 .
This April 1944 article from Popular Mechanics explains how target jeeps work. The photo shows a slat grille MB sacrificed for the greater good.
Has a ventilated windshield.
“Decided to part with my 1955 Willys CJ3B. Before I bought the jeep it had been partially restored. It was repainted, the engine and transmission were rebuilt and the seats were also replaced with new fabric and foam. I replaced the carburetor and fuel pump a few years ago with the Solex carburetor and an electric fuel pump. It starts and runs good, its a solid jeep and the body is in good condition with minimal rust. It has a rare windshield frame, the inner glass frame folds out which is pretty cool.”

Seller lists the price at $20k, but I suspect that’s just a place holder.
“Have one complete 1946 Jeep Willys all original. Have 2 others (1948) that still need put together. Have a ton of spare parts as well. Can send more pics if seriously interested”
https://denver.craigslist.org/cto/6201156495.html
It’s got worn brakes and a fuel line leak.
“80% original. I purchased this in 2015 from the third owner as a possible restoration project but I don’t have the time or energy. Believed to have been in southern New Mexico for at least 40 years. 12 volt conversion. Clear title. Original flathead 134 engine. Seller indicated he had engine rebuilt and personally rebuilt both axles but couldn’t provide receipts. I put on about 20 miles in both 2WD and 4WD before parking it in July 2015 and it ran strong and tight. After bringing coolant up to sub-zero specs it’s been parked ever since. Transmission and transfer case shift smooth and tight with zero slop. Original tailgate and hood have embossed WILLYS i.d. Some Bondo patching is evident on body tub but extent is unknown. Tub has moderate rust perforation on underside bracing. All five tires hold air – wheels are non-OEM chrome. Marine-grade vinyl upholstery and top were added at some point – all in good condition (canopy top and bows are included). Also includes various spare parts that were purchased but never installed (seat belts, new starter, locking hubs). Not drivable due to leaking fuel line and worn brakes, and carb is gummed up after 2 years parked. Sold strictly as-is with no guarantees. Mileage unknown (mileage on odometer is incorrect).”

“I have a 1951 Willys Jeep and I am looking to trade for a pre smog muscle car or truck. The jeep is in pretty good condition besides interior and a couple spots on the body. The jeep is running and driving it has a Chevrolet GM Goodwrench crate 350 runs great! Starts right up. 3 speed with overdrive. Brakes need to be worked on. Trade for pre smog V8 muscle car or truck”
The rear seat is raised. Looks solid.

“HAVE A 60 WILLYS JEEP REBUILT ENGINE NEW OLD STOCK F- HEAD REPLACED. ALUMINUM RADIATOR RUNS GREAT.”
This has a variety of mods.
“Great running jeep. No rust. New paint. Good tires. V6 Chevy s10 motor but the rest is original with the 3 speed over drive hi/low transmission. Power steering and brakes.I owned it in the 80’s, sold it then bought it back. I’ve known all the owners since the early 80’s. Never been trail ridden or abused. I will take $5000 cash no less, no joy rides, no BS , bring cash if you want to drive it. It could be a daily driver. All lights work, all gauges work but gas gauge can be fidgety, Windshield folds down easily, s10 steering column and seats. 32×11.5-15″ tires with lots of tread.”

“In order to list it I had to say it had a clear title however it does not have a title. Bill of sale only. This is a Jeep FC150 1957, the vin stamp on the vehicle is hard to read but we have determined the vin # is 65548-13515. Also have no idea of the mileage”
Looks like it could use some body work.

These first four are from the Korea War:
Normandy 1944:
These photos show the Minerva, an armored jeep-like vehicle. The famous MINERVA (built under license of land rover) not the nicest, but served for several years in the belgian army -this is an exceptional version (and very rare to find these days) of the recon group – it’s heavy plated and gunned – greetz
This seller has a few interesting jeep toys. There are is supposed to be a 1948 Willys body (CJ-2A?) there, too (no pics of the body).
