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 $4250.
This looks like a good price on a nicely updated CJ-2A.
“47 Jeep Flat Fender with 350 fuel injected chev with T465 4sp and 205 transfer case. Detroit lockers front nd rear, marlin crawler alloy front axles, 35X12.5 tires (50%), power steering and brakes, Chev tilt wheel w/working turn sigs, amfmcd, tow bar, Best top & bimini top, 8000# Warn winch, aluminum radiator, heater & more. Will sell for 4250 which is much less than invested.
It sounds like plenty have been done to this jeep.
“This was my winter project. I was going to keep it but, with Jeep offering such good deals on new jeeps, prehaps a new jeep? A TON of work was done by the previous owner, I got it and finished it. All work was professionally done.
It has a new steel body on it, (the fuel filler is in the drivers rear instead of under the drivers seat), just repainted, (it was scratched, no body filler plates)
6 point full roll cage.New fuel tank with “skid pan”. Electric fuel pump.V-6 motor with low mileage, (no gunk under valve covers or timing chain cover) good oil PSI

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500
(05/10/09) This jeep looks good. It appears to have an updated motor of some type as I think I see a header coming down on the passenger side. It doesn’t look like there’s a muffler attached to the header.
“I have been storing my fathers 1946 Willys hoping to one day restore it in his memory. Unfortunately, with the present economy I am not working and can’t afford the extra storage fee. It was last restored in 1989 so is in need of a facelift. It has a 350 small block with headers and custom built roll bar. If your a jeep lover you will be familiar with the Armstrong tires that it rolls on and the Warn wench that it has up front. Currentley, it is non-op and needs alittle TLC. It is very hard part with this vehicle so serious inquires only.”

Rare convertible DJ.
“Up for auction is one of the rarest of all Jeeps. The DJ-3A Dispatcher was made from 1955 to 1964. Willys marketed the Dispatcher as a “Sport” vehicle and an inexpensive commercial delivery car. They used existing tooling and in-stock CJ parts to keep the cost low. That meant that they were trying to market a car with technology fresh from 1940! Keep in mind this car was built just months before Ford introduced the Mustang. No wonder this is a rare Jeep!
The example being auctioned is a 1963. The paint is original and shows only a few scratches and a few discolored spots. There are two small rust-through spots on the rear of the body at the rear body mounting brackets. The upholstery is original and is in excellent condition. The odometer reads a very believable 27,990 miles. DJ-3As are two-wheel-drive with three speed transmissions and column shift. This car has a limited slip differential! Comfortable cruising speed is around 40 mph….”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500.
