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 .
No title with this CJ-2A trencher. It’s going to take some poking around to see what value is here.

“1947 Trencher jeep. Bill of sale only. Bought from a farm auction. Unsure of condition. Trencher appears complete. Comes with front bumper weight and complete governor.”
This has body liner throughout, which appears to cover some body work in a few places.

“1946 Jeep Willys CJ2A This Jeep has the L134 engine, “F” script head. I purchased the Jeep in January with hopes to restore it. I just don’t have the time. Currently does not run, no title but I can provide a bill of sale.”

“Nice little Jeep Willy’s that comes with a parts Jeep. Has been a good running Jeep for the past two years for me and my family on the farm. It has a new carburetor and I put an electronic distributor in it. Things that will need to be fixed is a brake line, an ignition since I lost the key in a recent move. The starter was rebuilt and the shop that rebuilt pit the wrong gear on it so it hangs up on the flywheel. Last summer I would pull start and it would stay running all day if I wanted to. Haven’t tried to start this year yet but it should be fine. Do not have title”
Unclear how much value is here.

“I have Willy’s Jeeps for sale.. between 48-52. I believe it’s a CJ2. Miscellaneous extra parts as well. $2500 each or OBO. no titles”
I installed the new master cylinder for the clutch. The pedal is a bit more stiff due to the larger bore, but it does the job. I wanted Ann to test it to make sure she could operate the clutch, so she took it for a cruise (and kept the speed down to keep the grass intact).
UPDATE: Here’s a better image of a Bean Model 200F from a November 1958 ad on eBay:
=========================
This post was from August 22, 2012: I show two ads below. John Bean appears to have built both a FC-150 Model 200-F Fire Jeep, and a FC-150 Model-FJ. I don’t know what the difference between the two is.
1. This blown up portion of the ad shows the ad for the Model 200-F from a 1960 Ad
2. This ad is from 1959. I can’t tell what model is shown. These are two of 12 pages in the brochure.
Pete writes, “Im searching for a 1948 Willys Wagon 4-63. It was originally a family friends Wagon and was in the Hughson, CA area.” If you want to contact him, email him at doubleup144 @ hotmail.com (remove spaces around the @ before emailing).
The wagon’s serial number is 83086 and the engine number is R3523104 … it looks like the jeep got a rebuilt engine at some point.
UPDATE: Still Available.
(08/06/2023) Another nice build, but this one with a Bobcat hood.

“1967 Jeepster Commamdo Runs, drives and stops as it should. This is an old Jeepster. The questions in the past have been: what is the top speed, will it make a 1000 trip, what is the mileage? I answer the same way to each one of these: it’s a 56 year old Jeepster”
Just one pic. It might be worth a look.

“I will address current condition, this jeep has no title, you can get in lieu of bond for it, its a really easy process, i will provide a bill of sale which you will need for that process, its all but road worthy, needs new master cylinder, brakes bled etc.. it has a new battery, it will start and run, clutch works, goes into gear, t case shifts in and out of gear, this is still a project, you cannot drive it home, no i do not know how fast it goes, it has the 4 cylinder engine, twin stick Dana 18, offset rear end, the gas tank is clean, the engine runs off of the mechanical fuel pump that is on the engine, it does steer, most of the lights work, yes it has rust, show me any old jeep or vehicle that does not have rust, the price is 1500, that price is firm, would be a cool mountain rig, kid/parent project, please serious inquiries only,”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Unclear how much value is here. It’s got one of the sedan roofs atop it. No description provided.
This seems to be a 1946 and has the early windshield and a column shifter, so likely it’s a VEC. However, it lacks indents. I can’t tell if it has full floating rear hubs or not.

“Hi there, I’m looking for a new and loving home for my Grandfather’s 1947 Willys CJ2A. He was the second owner and was in the middle of having a full restoration done on the truck before he passed away, and I unfortunately do not have the time to show it the love it deserves.
The body is straight, there are no dents, there is no rust, and it has a brand new paint job in a light metallic blue. If you are familiar with Willys you may notice that he updated the windshield frame the the later model to give it a rounder overall look. The engine, transmission, transfer case, and differentials were rebuilt and are installed in the truck, the only thing not installed is the front driveshaft.
I have two sets of doors to go with the jeep and a handful of the original parts to help put it back together. And it has a clean title. I’m asking $15,000 OBO, I know from the receipts I found he has much more than that into it. Trades welcome. I hope to find it a great new home.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(07/19/2023) It’s a project.

“There is but 3 small rust spots. The size of a silver dollar. Not original motor. Motor is a rebuilt that needs rebuilt. Beautiful jeep. Skeleton interior but it is all still there. Would be awesome for those who have the time and the love.”

“Mostly held together with bondo. Have original engine at mission motor being stored. Is on a open trailer that can sell with it.”
I think this tire setup should work just fine for now. There are skinny wranglers on the front and some classic desert dogs on the back.
I decided to upgrade to a 1″ bore master cylinder from Wilwood for the clutch. Honestly, it kind of feels light and cheap. Unfortunately, the new MC did not include an adapter (A FEMALE(3/8-24 INVERTED) with a MALE(1/8-27 NPTF) to connect the flair tipped line to the MC and our local auto stores didn’t have the correct adapter either. Ugh … This should reduce the clutch stroke without making it too difficult to use (my first jeep had a really stiff clutch, but I never minded it). Hopefully, I’ll have all hooked up by later today.
Chris shared this nice looking original CJ-5. If you are looking for an early CJ-5, this one looks great for the price.

“I’m at the point the only way to finish my current project is to sell my finished Model T or to sell one of my future projects. Don’t want to make a bunch if listings if you’re interested in something message me we can discuss. I will be honest though these are my personal projects, these aren’t customers cars or projects I bought to make a quick buck. These are vehicles I don’t want to sell so they’re not cheap… just being honest. Located in Maine, shipping can easily be arranged.”
No description, but confirmation the price is for both.
