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 .
Charles just purchased this CJ-2A. He’d been watching eWillys for a long time and finally found one that was near him with a body in great shape. However, what’s unusual about this 2A is that it has an electric fan installed under the passenger seat. He said it’s a pretty heavy fan, too. Anyone ever heard of that?
Yeah I’ve heard of it. Now take notes. Education time for you. BUBBA!!
Back in the day, during leaner times, some in yer carpool could only afford beans……..
MAGA Make America a Gas Again!
Are there heater hoses running underneath the car to the fan box? I had a very similar set up in several of my vintage automobiles ranging from the 1930’s and right up into the 1960’s.
Craig, a heater would make more sense.
Studebakers had an underseat heater from at least ’46 thru ’52. They were very effective. They had a separate blower motor under the dash to defrost the windshield.
my 1956 continental mk II had dual a/c — top that ? — I have old stewart warmer summer wind ? gas heaters out in the barn — put one of those under the seat and TOAST YOUR BUNS !
My first thought it was a heater also.
There’s a heater similar in appearance on Willys For Sale now. Made by Arvin I think.
Under seat heaters were a very common feature across many / most brands, peaking in popularity in the 40’s and 50’s. The primary concept was to get some warmth into the back seat area. It used to be a lot more common to have folks in the back. Not sure how well that applies to a CJ, though.
