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 .

Craig spotted both of these modified wagon projects/parts jeeps.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
Craig shared this one. Seller wants it gone.
“I have a 1948 Willys Cj 2A for sale. I have done some tinkering on it but since I am away at school most of the year it has got to go. It comes with two engines, one free spinning and ready to go in and an extra motor with condition unknown which i have pulled some parts off of. All tires have good tread and hold air, but do have some dry rot. It is old, it has rust. No title, have the original VIN plate and bill of sale. Great project or for parts. Whatever you want to use it for, MAKE AN OFFER and lets get it gone. ”
There’s some value here. Too bad so much of the original art work faded.
“Up for sale is my awesome willys jeep that I was going to restore. I’m selling because of too many projects. Has 1 spot in right rear where it rusted through a little. Other than that the body is in great shape!! This is a really solid jeep!!! No engine or title.”
https://westslope.craigslist.org/cto/6150956970.html
Listed as a 1951 body, it might be an aftermarket body. It’s got the solid back and a civilian floor, but lacks a gas tank outlet on the rear, which means it isn’t a DJ-3A convertible or surrey body. It might be an aftermarket body.
“For Sale 1951 Willy-Jeep Body
Has good Arizona Title.
Call Mike for info. Selling for $700”

“1971 Jeep CJ6 with Half cab.
No engine, trans or t-case.
Roller tires and wheels.
D27 front, D44 rear. Body tub is not perfect at all, but in pretty good shape overall for its age.
What you see is what you get.
I have had it for about a year now and I just don’t think I’m going to get to working on it. It’s been under cover since I’ve had it.
These are fairly rare and hard to find. Although I am open to reasonable offers, once you’re standing in front of it, I will not even listen to stupid low ball offers.
Cash in person only, the only trade I would be interested in is a good clean working Hot tub or more jeep stuff.
If you decide you want it, you will have to come back for it. It is buried behind a couple of others and I will need some time to get it out to the driveway.
Text or email only, I’m not normally able to take calls freely.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(04/27/2017) Not sure how much value is here.
“Clean Florida title, delivery available depending on location. Let me know what questions you have.
My apologies if you messaged the previous post, I found they went to junk mail after posting expired.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000
Appears to have some rust on the driver’s side. Missing the windshield.
“1947 Jeep Willys- 4 cylinder flat head. Originally transmission.”
It’s a project.
“For sale is a 1951 Willys CJ-3A Jeep completely disassembled and ready for restoration. Motor and transmission were working when disassembled. The tub is very rusty but would be good for parts. 134 cu in Go Devil 4 Cylinder Engine, 3-speed Borg Warner T-90 Transmission, Dana 18 Transfer Case, Dana 25 Front Axle and Dana 44 Rear Axle. Everything is there except the fuel tank. There is no title for a vehicle of this age in Alabama. I will sell the Engine, transmission and transfer case separately for $1000. I can load everything on a trailer if interested the pallet rack is not included in the sale. Call or text for more information. If I do not answer please leave a message. Serious Inquiries Only Please.”

No pics. Sounds like an incomplete project with a new body.
“new jeep body with frame,axles,transmission,transfurcase, power steering lots of extras.
3500.00 o.b.o.”
Lots of work left in this Wagon/S-10 project. Glass and body exterior look good.
“This listing is for a rare 1948 Willys Jeep Overland Station Wagon. This vehicle will make one great street rod, no doubt about it. The Jeep currently has no motor but the engine bay is plenty large enough for any size motor you’d like to drop in. It needs new door glass. The body is sitting on a mid-80’s model Chevrolet S-10 pickup frame. The body work is ~80% complete. This vehicle is being sold as-is. Please contact me with any questions you have about this vehicle. The buyer will need to pickup the vehicle, I do not provide shipping. This is quite a rare vehicle and a true collector. You won’t find another like it.”

I found these docs on eBay. They are basic pricing sheets for the DJ-5 and DJ-6 (non mail-jeep looking versions). Though I don’t see specifics, I think these used the T-96 tranny.
UPDATE: **Sold** Was $15,000.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was No Price.
Looks good. The interior “diamond plating” on the ceiling is actually thin plastic sheets cut to fit the side panels and headliner.
“According to Willys records, less than 12,000 wagons were produced in 1959. All were powered by the Super Hurricane 226 Cubic Inch inline 6-cylinder flat head engine. Combined with the 3 speed manual transmission, this drive train produced a neck-snapping 115 HP and could almost reach 55 mph down hill with a tail wind. These wagons came in both the two-wheel and four-wheel drive models and were designed for strength and durability, not speed.
It is difficult to find any of these vehicles today. For the most part, those that do exist do not resemble the original. Most have been subjected to the “improvements” of a high-powered engine and transmission swap.
This rare example has seen restoration efforts by 3 successive owners since 2008. Each has added his or her contribution but no effort has been made to change the original 58 year-old powertrain.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500
“This Willy’s is just right for running as is or a restoration project. 100% complete plus lots of parts to go with it. Full body diamond plate body protection. No Rust.
Stock axles and transfer-case, overdrive and t-case, with a 350 SBC conversion under the hood. Motor has aprox 20K miles on it.
This one looks in good shape. Barry spotted it. It almost looks like the rear wheels are larger than the fronts. It must be an optical illusion?
“I am selling my 52 Willys overland, frame off restoration with a little over 23k mileage. Runs and drives really nice, very fun to drive. I have too many projects and need to let this one go. I will consider trades for running drivable Camaro, Chevelle or an 87 Monte Carlo SS hardtop. ”

Needs a little work to get going again.
“I have for sale a 1941 CJ2 willy’s jeep. Second owner and has been garaged for the past 15 years. It was driven in and ran fine when parked but now needs a battery and probably a fresh fluids flush to get running again. Clean title. Very fun and iconic jeep. Will go up literally anything!! Jeep is pretty dirty in pictures, a nice wash cleaned her up good”
https://medford.craigslist.org/cto/6151166539.html
Engine has a knock.
“206 cylinder – runs but knocks. Needs motor. 4 wheel drive, channeled body. Old Ford six motor. Must see. Make an offer. Matte Black.”
https://spokane.craigslist.org/cto/6151592711.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
Has a seized V8.
“1945 flatfender Ford jeep, small block ford v8, 4 spd that is seized up, I have another transmission and transfer case and the flathead motor from the 40s to go with.”
Body has been media blasted and primed.
“1948 Willys Jeepster. Rust free and very straight body which has been plastic media blasted and primed at the cost of $2700. All the interior has been done in a modern pattern/materials. The plan was to make it a driver with a 225 Buick V6 and turbo 350 which have both been completely rebuilt and included as well. The frame has not been modified yet so if you wanted to go back to the original drive train you could very easily. The original engine and trans are gone and not included. Some of the plating and polishing of the stainless has been done as well. Lots of extra parts included. A lot of time and money were spent on the project unfortunately there wasn’t enough time left to finish it. It’s a great start for someone wanting a project. Due to the location in the garage pictures are not the best.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2800.
(05/20/2017) Runs. Appears worth a look.
“Selling my 47 Willys cj2a it’s in good condition runs and drives but is still a project still has the go devil 4 cylinder engine it’s easy to work on and worth putting money into I’ve had a good time with this jeep but no longer have a place to store it so it’s sitting in storage rotting away and it didn’t deserve it so help her back onto the road”
No pics provided.
“very good Jeep 4×4 standard 134 flathead, 3 sp with 4 wheel drive and high and low, VERY good tub with no rust except in the tool box under the seat. Warn hubs, old 16 inch tires stock except for 12 volt and alt.and big brakes.”
Looks like there’s parts value here.
“Has good bones. Look at pics.
