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 $5000.
Nope, never seen this mod!

UPDATE: Price dropped to $4800.
(07/17/2013) The seller describes the body as a M-38 body, but it’s clearly a MB/GPW.
“I have a 1946 willys jeep cj2 with 283 chevy engine conversion done in the 1960’s (jeep sat in barn covered for 30+ years) factory overdrive unlocking rear hubs for towing ALL STOCK except for engine swap m38 military body also have tow bar roll bar and aftermarket all aluminum top doors and rear window ( probly jc whitney or sears back in the 50’s) RUNS and drives great NEW battery fuel system new master cylinder new wheel cylinders military seat belts no smog needed perfect hunting or camping 4×4 nice little cj2 a $4800 b/o clear title in hand

It runs. I can’t say I ever thought of melding a CJ-5 and CJ-3B this way.
“1953 cj3b Buick v6, runs great. NY registration. great project.”
http://newyork.craigslist.org/lgi/cto/3969389018.html
This appears to have been a CJ-6.

On another note, this seller also included a picture in the ad of his completed drag M-38 jeep. This one is NOT for sale.

Here’s an oddball.
“This jeep has a new rebuilt engine, new u-joints, new tires, new carburetor. Ready to go, especially during hunting season, good for ranch work, etc. This price is firm. Serious buyers only.”

Seth discovered this one-of-a-kind boat for sale. Perhaps the builder was inspired by the Panther water car?
“This is a 1972 All Fiberglass Jeep CJ5 Tub built up on a Fiberglass hull. It has a 50hp Johnson outboard on a custom bracket with power trim & tilt. It has all nautical lights for running at night plus all the vehicle lights work including head lights, tail light and blinkers. This is a 2014 build.
So let me tell you, this thing is an absolute blast, grab a friend turn up the stereo and you will be turning heads everywhere you take her and you can take her anywhere because its great in any water due to the two 12 ft wind surfing boards that act as outriggers so its real stable and not tippy at all plus it has a full windshield. This thing is custom everything from the beautiful paint job to the detailed shifter console and dash board.
Also comes with custom fitted boat trailer.”
The seller’s reaching on this price given the description.
“This is a 1949 cj3A Willys Jeep it has the original 4 cylinder Flathead Willys engine also have the original title it has been in a born for about 10 years it has not been run we have not touched it the body is in not too bad of shape for as old as it is will take 4500 or best offer you don’t find these everyday please contact me soon as possible it won’t last long”

Marc spotted this unsual DJ-3A. The back has been extended and the dash contains a glovebox, but otherwise there’s lots of DJ-3A elements here. I didn’t know there were DJ-3A ambulances. Anyone ever seen one?
“Fully equipped DJ3A ambulance, well restored over the past years, very good technical condition, new tyres, good condition canvas softtop, etc…”

How about this unusual jeep named Hessie.
“Her name is Hessie! My Dads snow plow and family member.
Dad hates to see her go but she is getting a little old and needs more care then he can give her.
Built from a 1952 4×4 Jeep Willies truck with a tractor cab and hydroturn plow.
He has had it for going on 20 years
Miles- 62years worth???
Paint can be customized to your team color or other liking with a couple cans from Fleet Farm!
Great conversation piece/ lawn ornament!! The miss’s will love it!
Starts and runs, drives, the head was rebuilt about 5 years ago.
It has the original straight six engine.
I can’t tell you much more about it so please don’t email with a bunch of questions, just call or text to set an appointment to look at it, if interested.”
Here’s an odd duck. The body looks extended in the rear.

The rear of this appears heightened. I thought the look was interesting.
“Hey I am selling my jeep cj5. It has an amc 401 with a 3 speed. Transfer case has teralow kit 3:1 low range. dann 44 rear with detroit and 4.56. Front is dana 30 with spool and 4.56. It has corbreau seats with 4 point harnesses. new windshield and wiper motors in last couple of months. also new alternator. Last week I just put bed liner in the tub. There are no front fenders, i took them off because I was going to do tube fenders but never got around to it. I have a home made top and doors just for the snow. The top will not hold up to high speeds. It currently has 36″ tsl swampers on it with lots of tread left. Also has brand new stock carb with only 3 or 4 drives. have a 12000 lb mile marker winch on the front that works but someone stole the solenoid box so it needs that. looking to sell asap, may trade asking $2700 obo. Text is best. (360)270-0062. ”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
It runs, but is an odd duck.
“Looks like old army jeep vw engine trade for 4wheeler or something else maybe a small enclosed trailer .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4200.
Besides missing the rear of the jeep, it doesn’t have ww2 axles. So, I would suggest looking this over carefully.
“1944 GPW military flat fender Jeep – 5 new all directional tires (military stock) – runs perfect – 12 volt conversion – clean title and current registration –
PS: This is cash and carry ONLY – don’t bother me with the BS stories of being away, or being on an off-shore rig, or having your “agent” be in touch – I will not reply and simply forward your email to the scam and phishing folks at craigslist and local law enforcement.”
Bob forwarded this unusual CJ-5. I think calling this a custom CJ-5 is an understatement. The price is surprising.
“For Sale by owner. http://www.MyJeepForSale.com. 1974 CJ5 Classic Jeep. One of a kind Jeep. $49,000. Mileage: ~ 15,200. Original Owner. Stored in Heated Garage. Recently restored/repainted.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800.
“Selling my 1946 Jeep Willys CJ2A. Just bought it 4 months ago but now i moved to Seattle for work. All original running gear, stamped engine block, stamped hood, holds fluids, clear title. It has 2 rust spots that are not too bad at drain holes next to wheel wells as well as standard surface rust. Not running at the moment but all i need to do is pull the starter and clean the brushes then she will be running. Original owner had it on farm for hunting and stored in barn, sold to previous owner who’s wife had a child and had no time to fix it anymore (Held on to for 6 months), now i have it and cant keep it :(. I can have this delivered as far as Bellingham. Will sell for $1800 cash. I can arrange with my father if you would like to see the Jeep as it is being stored at their home.
The odd looking fender pieces are actually just steel that are welded to the front bumper and silicone on top of the originals. The original seats are taken out and the gas tank relocated and replaced with a 25 gallon aluminum tank. The last quark is that the tailgate is welded up to accommodate for the gas tank. This is a project car and would be great for anyone. Please contact me if you are interested. ”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $2000. This was last listed in 2011.
(09/01/2011) Is it just me or does the rear wheel well combined with the hood make it look MLWish? It’s likely all custom though.
“1955 Willy Jeep for sale. Runs and has a clean title. Needs work”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
It runs and drives, but is rough. The rear looks modified.
“1942 Ford GPW. Runs and drives. Front clip, fenders, dash, windshield frame all restorable. Frame is shot.”
Here’s another unusual London woodie. Note it is an improved model, suggesting Burleigh made others.
