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 jeep was gone through in 2005. The engine was completely re-done by a professional machine shop, the transmission was rebuilt, and most of it was sand blasted/sanded and re-painted. The top was purchased then. It also has full doors that are not on it right now. It has all canvas seats and a heater. I’ve used it for special occasions, and an occasional short trip, but I’m pretty sure I’m still under 10,000 miles. I just don’t use it enough and would like to pass it on to someone else. It just sits in my shop..”

I have a clear Texas title in hand
Original manual
Spare tire
functioning fold down windshield
4wd of course
3 speed manual transmission
**********
Front trailer attachment, making it super easy to haul anywhere without the need of a trailer*************
I bought it last year from a guy who had been using it on his deer lease for a very long time. He was injured and quit hunting so let it go. Per him he was either the 3rd or 4th owner. I’ve used it on the ranch a few times but that’s all. It has functioning lights and all. I went to start it up this week when I pulled it out to take the pictures and it started right up. Keep in mind it hadn’t been touched since February this year! Motor runs perfectly and starts up on 1st try! Can be made street legal.
I paid $2200 for it late last year but have no longer have use for it. I will take $1600 in hopes for a quick hassle free sale!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7950
Appears solid. Some more pics would be useful.
“Willy’s Jeep CJ2A 1945/46
One of just a few Willy’s Jeep CJ2A with a transmission of three on the tree column shift. I have had this Jeep for over 4 years, love it but unable to spend any time restoring it to it’s original glory. This
Jeep is stock and has most original parts. Lights work, gauges work, seats are in good condition with no rips. If you are mechanical and can put sometime in to restoring this gem, I have seen them listed for over $30k fully restored. The reason I put 1945/46 down for the year, is because the vin number of
11433 falls in to the year of 1945, vin’s 1001 – 11824. So, the vin number puts the Jeep in to the year of 1945, yet it’s written on the Title as a 1946 Jeep. Go figure? I bought the Jeep in 2011 from a CHP
Motorcycle Policeman who kept on his farm south of San Jose. Like I said, I bought the Jeep as an
investment because of it’s unique one of a kind transmissions, 3 speed column shift. I’m not going to waste my time with tire kickers, so serious inquiries only please.”
Might be some value here.
