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 .
Could be a Bobcat body.

“Rusty tub I pulled from a DJ3A. I started to patch this thing up, putting in one floor board and getting some metal patch panels, but I ran out of energy.

“I have a 1947 jeep CJ2A tub for sale…NO RUNNING GEAR..
It has excellent front end sheet metal. 500$$$$
Call max for an appointment”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Body was $700.
This is a 1952 Willys M38 body tub. This has a new front floor pan installed as well as a right rear 1/4 panel and side. It also has some other patching done on non original holes. It will need several more welded up. It has been sand blasted and primed but the former owner let it get damp under a tarp and there is some light surface rust. This was originally a communications jeep so there are holes for the radio equiptment as well as the antana mounts and cable holes. It just needs finishing.
Here’s more:

“We have three new reproduction Willys CJ3A Body Tubs. These all have a minor dent somewhere. They will fit the CJ2A as well. The only real major difference between the 2A and 3A is the 3A rear wheel house is about 2″ shorter than the 2A. It gives you more room. The body will fit either frame without a problem. These are in black primer.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
The tubs are $500 a piece. Note the far right ‘body’ is a FC-150 bed. I just thought the image was unusual.
“This auction is for one Jeep body tub only, with no other parts attached. The body being sold is for a CJ-2A Willys Jeep. It is the green one on the end next to the FC-150 truck bed. It will need some rust repair in the front floor pan. It has nice top bow brackets on the divers side”
