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: Price dropped.
Matt’s got these last few FC parts for sale. He’s hoping to find someone who can use them.
“These are my remaining 1960 Jeep FC-150 parts:
1) Rear Wide Track Ballast Weight: $200
Rusty, U bolts had to be cut due to rust. The portions of the rods remaining will need to be hammered out.
2) Gas Tank: $25
Bottom is rusty, but no rust holes through it, however, during removal from the Jeep, we accidently put a small 1/8″ hole in the top left corner (see pics). It is also contains dried ‘stuff’ and has no gas cap or straps. Good template, and possible easy fix of that hole.
3) Radiator: $100
No mounting rods, it is still attached to the core support, but that had to be cut, so I would not call that portion usable. It was/is filled with coolant, so there were no leaks, but it did contain sludge, so it may need a re-coring. The marking on the core is from the coolant spill when we cut the hose.”

UPDATE: Price dropped to $3200.
(04/02/2017) Runs and drives.
“Running and driving 1947 Willys Jeep. Clean and clear Kansas title with a matching ID plate. Great to enjoy the spring and summer or use for your deer lease or farm!
– new distributor cap, rotor, spark plug wires, spark plugs.
Points and Condenser removed and upgraded to electronic ignition.
-New hi-torque starter
-Headlights work.
The LED tail lights and brake lights work, but aren’t currently wired.
-Smokes a little at start up then reduces when warmed up.
-The driver side wheel well has been notched to allow the driver’s seat to be pushed back. This is for all the guys with a rotund torso to be able to fit in comfortably, or long legs. I’m 6′ and my legs are fully extended and it sets very nicely.
-Windshield glass is good (no cracks) and the windshield pivots down onto the hood bumpers.
-The floor under the tool box could be patched or leave as is.
– A rare heater is installed if you ever put a top on it, and the fan does blow.
– Front tow bar is installed and it pulls very well. Bring a 2″ ball and pull it home or drive it.
Great jeep to drive as is or fix it up!”

Craig shared this ad. It’s listed as a 1952, but it looks like a CJ-5, which means it is 1955 or later.
“1952 Jeep Willy’s for parts or to fix up. Comes with a plow and hard doors. It has a four cylinder motor and could be made to run like it is or fixed up.”
https://ithaca.craigslist.org/cto/6081126599.html

With the rain staying away for a few days, I booked it over to Renton for a few days to work on Rusty. Here are a few of the things I did today.
I did a little more straightening to the body. This time I wanted to remove a bow along the top back. I’ve mounted a board as a straight edge. You can see the cancer in the rear.
You can see there’s a gap between the board and the back.
After some clamps and some sweet talking with a 5lb sledge, I coaxed the back into line.
Then I played doctor and removed the cancer.
Craig shared this article about the M-38A1D.

It’s dated Nov 29, 1940, which is highly unlikely given this version of the jeep hadn’t been built yet. I’d guess more like late Nov 29, 1942 is more likely.
“1940 Press Photo US Military Men Directing Jeep on a Float. This is an original press photo. US Military men directing jeep on a float.Photo measures 10 x 8.25inches. Photo is dated 11-29-1940.”

UPDATE: Price dropped to $10,000.
(09/15/2015) Nice CJ-5 with what looks to be a vintage top in excellent condition.
“1961 Jeep Willy CJ5, w/corvette engine 8 cylinder, chrome Ramsey Winch Box, soft top, 3 speed, runs good, stored in garage.”
https://losangeles.craigslist.org/sgv/cto/6079495731.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500.
It could be a good price.
“Runs good new tires new batteries, new seats ,nice paint, 24 volt system, just about rust free.”
It’s a 2A body that the seller has modified to look more MB/GPWish.
“I have a 1946 willys cj2a. It is a very good jeep, in good shape, and runs good. It was rusted and full of big holes when I got it. I spent a lot of time repairing, I cut out the holes, and welded in new steel. This jeep didn’t come with a glove box, I built one for it. It has the four cylinder hericaine engine that is real strong. And Dana 18. This is a civilian jeep, so it had a taile gate, but I was converting it to a 45 military, so I put in the solid rear panel. I only put it in one car show, and won 2nd place. That might have just been because of the gun. I don’t need to sale the jeep, I just don’t do anything with it anymore. I hate to see it not being used. I want someone new to enjoy it like I have. The browning 1919a4 that mounts to it, I have it in semiauto belt fed. I don’t want to sale it, but if the offer is good I will let it go with the jeep. I might be willing to trade for guns, or a jeep wrangler. $8,000 is just an opener, call me, let’s deal.”
