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 .

This M-38A1 looks good for the price.
“My Dad is selling his 1952 M-38A-1 Willys Military Jeep. The Jeep has 40,000 actual miles. Had been a forestry department jeep when He bought it. The Jeep has all new brakes, tires and all canvas has been replaced. Was repainted in USMC green and markings. Comes with a correct radio and has a CD player mounted in the glove box which is wired to a Military speaker on the dash which he used to play Patriotic songs. Its a very nice driving old jeep just ready for this Summers cruising.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500
“Totally stock and great original condition 1959 Willys CJ5 with a nice and complete Koenig hardtop. The only additions/modifications are Rambler hubcaps and a gun rack on the dash. Also includes a very rare Koenig bed extender with jerry can holders. Has the rare 60/40 bench seats, which are freshly and beautifully reupholstered. Original and working AM radio. As far as I know, it has less than 50,000 original miles. It spent it previous life as a ranch Jeep in Wyoming, and prior to my ownership, was in a barn in Montana. I have the notebook with service records in it from decades ago. Only minor surface rust, nothing cancerous, and as you can see, very solid and straight and dent-free body with no welding or patches on it anywhere. There is rust on the bottom of the tailgate in the usual spot where the hinges connect, but I have a brand new primered Rugged Ridge Willys tailgate that will be included (cost me ~$200). Fresh tuneup on the F134 Willys Hurricane engine, starts right up and runs really well. I’ve had it going a sustained 50mph up the very steep mountain highway near my house, but it spends most of its time being babied in my garage or cruising around my property while I grin from ear to ear. Fantastic classic Jeep and a ton of fun. Hate to sell it, but I have to. $3,500, pretty firm.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
This has three data tags, a column shift, and the indents.
“if you know old jeeps this is a legend. needs to go asap. price is firm.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500
This would make a good restoration candidate.
“This is a military Jeep with a 24 volt system. It is all stock, complete with snorkel tube and canvas side curtains and doors. It is in good condition. Motor is free and the 4 wheel drive works fine. 4 cylinder motor and 3 speed transmission. I put a new gas tank in it, the brakes have been gone over and are good and working. It will run but needs a fuel pump and possible carb rebuild. It has two new Red Top Optima batteries and new cables. It has military tires that for a hunting vehicle are OK but for the highway need to be replaced.”
UPDATE: **SOLD**
This CJ-5 looks like it has a paint color similar to a DJ-3A. Nice looking CJ-5. Thanks to Dave for pointing this one out.
” I am selling my wife’s Willys Jeep CJ. She’s moved on to another 4×4. This Willys is in very good original condition and is the original color from the factory. It has not been monkeyed with much in any way. I think this Willys is as clean and straight as there is for sale out there. It has 22500 original miles and has been kept under a shed most of it’s life. It runs as it should and does not smoke or leak any fluids or burn oil. Factory inline 4 cylinder engine. It still has the original seats in it. The drivers side seat needs to be recovered. It is a three speed high low gears and 4×4 with locking hubs. All works as it should. It will climb up a tree. There are no rusty bubbles or rust holes on it anywhere. It has a pto but it was disconnected when we got it. The headlights, high low beam, tail lights and blinkers work as they should. The vin number under the hood is original and has never been messed with. There was no title with it when we bought it and sells with a bill of sale. The tailgate, chains and chain covers are still intact. The windshield can be put completely down and has a crack in it. I have the rear frame and cover and the door frames but they are dry and stiff. I have the spare tire mount, the original spare tire and wheel and the rear view mirror. When we bought it I had all the fluids from front to back changed. I had new belts, spark plugs and spark plug wires replaced in it as well. Nothing else has been needed since.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2900.
This may have potential. Not perfect, but looks solid and straight.
“1975 Jeep CJ5 for sale $2900. Jeep runs good and is in ok condition for the age of the vehicle. 3 speed transmission, 4.2L engine. This would be a good restoration project because it is stock setup or just license it and drive it.”

Vern’s got his beautiful 1949 Jeepster for sale. He’s only selling it because he found a 4WD Jeepster of a similar quality that he bought, so he doesn’t need this Jeepster any more. You can email Vern at heyvern1929 @ sbcglobal.net.
” 350 Chevy eng, 350 A/T, P/S, P/B, Disc brakes front, 28? gal aluminum gas tank, needs new top. Chrome is so so. needs redone.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This isn’t perfect, but it has a great vintage feel with the old top and posse tag. There are several Douglas Counties in different states, but I’m guessing this was from Nevada?

(10/16/2013) This has some underside rust.
“This began as a project 3 years ago. The jeep has been in a barn on the Ragan ranch for approx. 25 years where it sat after the brakes went out. It was moved to a different barn in Santa Ynez where I got it and brought it back into action in 2011. I use it now for my lawn care work in town. It has all original parts except for an alternator now, a 12 volt system and a solid state ignition. I have the original points distributor as well. It runs nicely and it is what it is. Yes, the horn works. I NEVER ride around with it without an overwhelming response form about Everyone who sees me. I ride with the windshield down. I arrested the surface rust. The under side needs some attention. Some small rust holes in the low side above the floor. The 4 wheel drive works sooooo well. I have two wheel brake cylinders to install for better braking.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2800

(11/16/2013) It’s missing the front bow holder, but otherwise looks like a good restoration candidate.
“Very nice, running, mostly original 1946 CJ2A. Primo restoration candidate because you’re starting with such a great Jeep. Runs and drives just fine. Brakes need work. It stops but very hard to lock up the wheels even if you stand on the brake pedal. Been in storage for many, many years, Started a mechanical restoration years ago but never finished. Other than the brakes, needs very little mechanically. Starts right up, everything works and drives just fine. Just need to be careful to allow enough distance in front of you to stop. Panic stops would not go well, everything else great.
Almost no rust at all. Have all the original wheels even though only one of the original ones is installed on it right now. Hard top from M38. Two broken side windows on hard top (vandalized) but windshield on Jeep itself is perfect.
All original except conversion to 12 Volts. Give me a call and come take it for a drive, everything works.
