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 $1000.
Here’s a jeep needing a new body according to the seller.
“1947 Willys CJ2A. Needs Restoration. Tub is shot so it will need a tub. Drivetrain is complete and Frame is solid. Need to sell!! $1,000.00 O.B.O.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.
I *think* the body is rough, but I can’t really tell for sure from these pics. It appears this is pretty stock. It includes a plow.
“Up for sale is a family heirloom…1951 Willys Jeep CJ-3with plow set-up! $3,000.00 obo. Dealer motivated to sell”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500
(08/13/2010) The windshield isn’t original, but most everything else could be. This might make a good parts jeep.
“All original needs points and rotary button and needs brake work”ad=5280489
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1600.
(07/11/2010) This includes a rear PTO. Depending on the level of rust, this seems to be a reasonable price.
“1948 willys cj2a jeep with hard top and doors, flat head 4 cly. runs good and drives good, 4×4 works good, great hunting rig. clear title. $ 1650. cash or trade for new toy ? you can e-mail pic. of what you got”

“I have a late production MB for sale… July 10th delivery date on dash plate with matching frame tag serial number. Still has T-84 military tranny….postwar civilian replacement engine. Has not run in two years. Engine will roll over. not siezed up…may be the original horn still mounted under hood….No gas tank…someone had cut out a hole on drivers side panel to fit a CJ gas tank fill neck.. Did not come with original front seats…Back panel uncut. there is some extra holes in body and holes that have been filled in some places.The body looks to be in fairly good shape as well as the frame…..This would be a good jeep for restoration. $4500.00 with the military tires on civilian rims and MB rear seat, or $4000.00 without seat and will put back on the wheels and tires that it came with.”
I’m not sure there’s much value here.

This ain’t no ’42 (as listed in the title to the Ad). I wish I could see those vin plates better. This sure looks like an original color. Dayville is a pretty remote town in the middle of Eastern Oregon. It’s a beautiful drive whether driving from the east or the west.
“all orginal placards, tires, paint job.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000.

(08/31/2010) It runs. The best part is the odd top.
“1961 Willy. Still runs great. Original everything! Only 11,000 original miles!!! Needs a little tender loving care but a great vehicle. Just got it registered. I used to use it around the ranch but I have no need for it anymore. Asking $1400.”

This appears in good shape.
“Hurricane 6 engine – installed 20+ years ago but with very few miles. Cab in good condition. Needs brake work. Has bed and hoist. Used as a farm trap wagon – bed accessories included.L”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
“1947 Willys CJ2A Jeep with 2 additional parts jeeps. Vehicle ran when I parked it by the barn 2 years ago. I haven’t tried to start it since. The hydraulics for the plow have been removed and stored in the barn, but they do go with the jeep. The actual mileage is unknown so I listed it as 999,999 miles. One of the 2 parts jeeps is fairly complete including the engine (I haven’t tried to turn it over). The second parts jeep is fairly complete, but is missing the engine.”
HOG spotted this nice looking CJ-5, though the rear end is a little high.
“You are bidding on a 1955 Willys CJ-5 that has been completely restored, and is in absolutely beautiful condition. Restoration was completed 2 years ago, and has been stored in a heated garage ever since, only to be driven to car shows and for a cruise around town on sunny days. Please read below for a complete description of the different parts of the Willys CJ-5 … lots more info on ebay and more pics here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/42952603@N03/sets/72157625085142976/”
It sounds like the seller knows some history about this flattie.

Looks good.
“Great looking willys jeep.”

This jeepster needs some loving.
“For sale here is a 1949 Willys Overland Jeepster. We believe it is a 1949 as it has a 6 cylinder engine and the flat front grill. It has 5 original hubcaps. It is very complete and seems to be missing only a top clamp and the back seat. The spark plugs are out of the engine, so figure it is locked up tight. The driver’s side is a little rough with some bondo showing and some rust around the front of the rear fender and body. There is major rust in the floor under the carpet but the rest of the car has mostly surface rust. The trim appears to be all there and in good shape. The grill is near perfect. The top bows are all there but fairly rusty. There is no title but I will furnish a bill of sale. I think the car has lots of potential for a restoration project. I can provide a number of other pictures via email.”
UPDATE: Was priced at $4000. Thanks Alan!
(03/24/2010) It looks solid and complete.
“1960 Jeep Willys FC-150 cab forward control. 4-cylinder flat head. In running condition but needs to be refurbished or restored.”
UPDATE: Hog spotted this on eBay.
This has a few rough spots, but not bad for a midwest jeep.
“This is a 1947 Willys CJ2A Jeep. I’ve owned it for about 2 1/2 years and it always lives in my attached garage. When I bought it, the Jeep had been sitting inside a dry, attached garage for the last 25 years. I brought it home, put a new battery in it and poured some gas in the carb and it started right up. Since then I have put new brakes all the way around, rebuilt the wheel cylinders and master cylinder, rebuilt the carburetor, cleaned and sealed the gas tank, and rebuilt much of the front end. We entered it in the 2008 Frog Follies and people just flocked to it. I drove it around town until late last year when the clutch went out. Put a new clutch assembly in it and it’s ready to go again. I liked it because it is about 95 percent original. No one has modified the crap out of it like most of them have been.
It does have some rust present, but it is much, much less than most of its age. Very little rust-thru. I have a clear Indiana title in my name with the original serial number on it. My name is Jerry and you can reach me at 812-204-3300.”

“Husband passed away, have never started the jeep, but he always took it hunting until 2002. Very good condition.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $600.
This looks like a good price for a parts jeep.

UPDATE: Status Unknown
(06/04/2010) DKW Mungas were sold in the USA by Studebaker, along with Mercedes-Benz. Here are a variety of images of the Munga. Munga is the German Acronym for “Multi purpose Universal Cross-country Car with All-wheel drive”.
“1958 DKW Auto Union Audi Jeep 3=6 Munga Gelandewagen 3cyl 2 stroke FWD/4X4. VIN 68602889. Miles 24,579. NATO Peacekeeping Jeep. FWD 4X4 3cyl/ 2 Stroke. This rare piece of post war history is a DKW / Auto Union Military jeep which was later used in civilian production. This car came to Seattle in 1982 from Palo Alto, California where it had lived for decades. It was driven regularly in the 80’s and sold with a DKW collection and put in dry storage until now. It is believed complete and also has many spares including a good crankshaft, which is an important item on this car. We have taken many parts out of the car to show condition of the body, but we will load it for the purchaser and carefully package it. As you can see the car is partialy disasembeld and it does not run.
The Auto Union was the collaboration of DKW, Audi, Wanderer and Horch
These vehicles are extremely nimble, and will climb a very high grade. They rev like crazy, and are a hoot to drive. Front wheel drive to four wheel drive on the fly, they are nearly impossible to get stuck in. 3 cylinder two stroke with only seven moving parts in the engine, there are strong parts clubs overseas and in the U.S. These are a fabulous conversation piece, and can be used instead of a golf cart at a car show or auction site. Very collectible and priced to sell. Nice restoration project. There are several owners clubs in the world and parts are accessable.”
UPDATE: Javier purchased this and plans to restore it.
It might not be all original, but it appears mostly original.
“1943 WWII era Ford Jeep. This vehicle is all original and was running great when parked about five years ago. This is an all original military jeep and will make a great addition for a collector, or a good deer lease buggy. Need to sell this weekend. $2500 OBO.”
