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 is your opportunity to own a piece of history. This is complete frame off 1948 CJ 2A Willys from the ground up.

(01/11/2019) This CJ-2A includes a Newgren Hitch, rear PTO, a drum pulley and governor. It will require some floor repairs at the very least.
“For your consideration is super rare 1948 Willys CJ2a farm jeep…all original paint “as found“ condition!….. a true survivor
This jeep, although showing signs of surface rust is really very restorable …it has damage in the front floors that should be replaced but overall has a very solid back bone, no crash damage is evident, nothing worn out or ruined. This rare jeep would make a wonderful addition to the collector of unrestored vehicles and I am sure it would be pretty appealing to all farm jeep collectors as it does have the agricultural implements installed..
This is a real gem…it has a newgren three point hitch and all of its associated parts such as the pump, controller, engine driven governor with correct handle on the dashboard.
also has a full rear PTO as well as a right angle drum pulley that is not shown in the photos…
