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 looks like a good price for a jeep with these updates.

Looks like a nice build.

“Nice unit. Buick v-6. Stick shift.”
The half cab looks reasonable. The body less so. Maybe someone can use?

“Body from a CJ2a. Comes with tin half cab. Willing to sell separately. Most of the body is in pretty good condition except the front floor. It will need replaced. The cab is a little bent up but totally fixable. The windshield frame is broken from the cowl mount, but is reparable. Noting super pretty here but with some work it will definitely be good enough for a driver.”
This has the correct plates to be a 1945, but I’m not seeing any other early parts in these pics.

“I’m parting out my project. I lengthened the tub about 3″ at the door frame. This tub is actually kinda rare. It’s civilian but has the shovel and axe dents in the drivers side and a few other unique things. I have other parts on it for sale also. Not a lot of original parts though.”
This lacks a title, but runs and drives. It’s listed as a 1949, but it is a 1948 model based on the serial number.
