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: **SOLD** Was $3500.
(09/17/2010) I consider this a THEFT at this price.
“Selling a restored 1961 Jeep Willys. Was restored about 3-4 years ago. Body is in great shape. Runs and drives perfect. Has been used for parades and driving around town. Asking $3500.00 No Trades.”
This sure looks straight and solid. This appears perfect for a restoration if the underside is solid.
“Hard to find 1946 Willys Civilian Jeep with LOW miles – only 36,000 actual, original miles! Clean body. Needs windshield post for full restoration. Runs and drives. Good brakes, new battery. 4 cylinder, 3 speed. This is a rare vehicle and won’t last long. Would make a great restoration project!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** $7500
(09/07/2010) Looks solid, though it is missing a couple items on the dash.
“Jeep in very good condition. runs great. converted to 12 volt from 6 volt. have old parts. transmission rebuilt 3 yrs. ago leaks a little from seal.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000
(08/22/2010) Rick is selling his CJ-2A. It looks like a solid runner with some good updates.
“231 V6 AMC (Similar to Buick V6); 4 Speed with External OD; New Soft Top; Extra Stock Wheels and Tires; Gas Tank Rack; Spare Tire; Winch; Full Roll Cage; 4 Core Alluminum Radiator; Converted to 12V.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2995.
(09/20/2010) This seller has mower and snow plow attachments. Note the rear PTO. The tub and fenders are fiberglass.
“Good condition. Original flathead 4 cylinder starts and runs good. 3 speed transmission with hi-lo and FWD shifts good. Frame is solid with no rust. Tub and fenders are fiberglass. Hood, grill and windshield are steel. Has hydraulic lift on front and rare pto in the back. Included are a manual angle snow plow, and 59″ wide finish mower that hooks up to the rear pto, a steel half-cab which I purchased but never used, a light duty roll bar, original wheels and other parts. The speedo cable has been broken for as long as I have owned it so I have no idea how many miles are on it. The oil pressure and water temp gauges work. For the past 7 years or so, I have used this cool, old jeep to mow my lawn, plow my 100′ driveway and occasionally ride into town (5 miles) but now I have lost interest and purchased conventional mower and snowblower to replace it. Some work on the wiring for the headlights and turn signals will need to be done to make it street legal again. I will take $3500 for everything for the first person who shows up with the money and I’ll also consider offers for the jeep without the attachments.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000
(08/24/2010) This appears in good shape. I suspect it’s an older restoration.
“been in a barn for years and years, fully drivable, it went for a cruise the other day, all works. plus tow bar, 4×4”
UPDATE: Still Available
(09/02/2010) I’d like to see a better image of the top. I don’t think I’ve seen one of these. This thing sports some big front and rear bumpers, too.
“Excellent 74 Ford/Merc V-6 with C4 Transmission and Overdrive. Front Wheel Hubs and New Radiator. Reverse 14″ Wheels/Spring Under. Hydraulic Capstan Winch. $10,000 OBO. Call for more info; Phone calls only please! 503-322-0261 Thank you.”

(06/15/2010) This jeep has seen a few updates.
“1942 Willys off-road jeep. It was converted 3 yrs ago to a Chevy 4.3L V-6, Ford T-18 transmission with sought after 6.32-1 granny gear and Dana 18 transfer case. Axles are a 3/4 ton Dana 44 front with detroit locker and a Dana 60 rear. They have both been completely rebuilt and narrowed with Moser axles and bearings, Heavy duty Tom Woods drive shafts front and rear with a CV style u-joint on rear. This is one of few Willys Jeeps that have been converted to coil spring with front and rear triangulated suspension. It has a awesome, smoothe off road ride with incredible articulation with no bindage. It has dual exhaust, edelbrock carb, power steering, 33” Thornbirds, hydraulic clutch, and a large marine battery. Has a massive 200 amp alternator to run 1000 watts of lights and a Warn 9000 winch with a removable cradle to plug in front and rear. The entire drive line since new only has a couple thousand miles on it and has never been street legal or taken to the beach. This Jeep has only been used in the Winter on a 200 acre deer lease for the past few years and stored inside during the summer. I’m no longer paying the high prices for deer leases and decided to sell my Willy and buy a street legal CJ7. Im firm on the 7000 and if it doesn’t sell, I’ll just convert it to street legal. (979)239-8862 ”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3700
(09/19/2010) I’m not sure why this is so cheap, but it appears to be a great price.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500.
(05/24/2010) Brett spotted this nicely restored CJ-6 with a unique looking paint job.
“Up for sale is a RARE 1959 CJ-6. This vehicle has been restored and has no rust. It is painted and marked in air force Blue. It has a 289 V8 motor. It runs and drives well. New gas tank. This jeep also has the rare Hard top. The person I bought it from clamed it was a Flight Line jeep. I have no documation on this. This is a must see if you are looking for a CJ-6. $6500.00 or best offer.”
UPDATE: Was on eBay
(12/26/09) This build looks interesting as it has some unique touches. The top is certainly unusual and is probably a relief on hot summer days. I’d like to get some more detail pics of this one.
“This jeep has given us much fun on off-roads and hunting trips. It hasn’t been driven on the highway since we have owned it. We trailer it to and from the mountains. We purchased it from the original owner, who bought it new in 1946 and has since passed on. We have made a lot of changes since we’ve owned it. These changes include diamond plate on part of the body, and we Rhino-lined the rest of the outside body, (has a small crack in Rhino-line on hood). Includes a wider wind shield than original. (see pictures) It has a removable vinyl top that converts easily into a bikini top. Zip-off side windows can be attached to the top. Removable vinyl covered half doors.

• It has 15”x8” black steel wheels with 32×11.50R15 Super Swamper TSL SX tires

• It runs excellent but needs a few leaks fixed (where the off-line oil filters connect to the stock oil filter location on the block, at the bottom of the oil dipstick, oil pan, and the transmission (I don’t know exactly where it is leaking at the transmission))
• It needs a clutch adjustment”
