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 .

“Original 1946 Willys Army jeep. Runs, but needs carbureator tune up. Recent army green paint job.”
http://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/cto/5261321995.html
Seller lists one jeep as a 1946 MB, but it looks more like a CJ-2A. The green jeep has a swoop entry that is similar to the prototypes, but the dash looks standard.
“Black Jeep is a 1946 MB needs work might be used for parts or great for winter restoration . Green one Jeep is a 1942 Willys MB also would work well for a restoration project or parts, needs engine, frame is solid. Front and rear lockers on axles. Also have extra parts. Thanks for looking”

“We are moving out-of-state and, sadly, can’t take my pride and joy with me; had so many dreams to restore this awesome 1948 Willys CJ2A. The engine is in very good condition and runs well! The body is in good shape with a brand new set of five tires. There is a black soft top (shown), a bikini top, doors and roll-bar included. I tried to get as good of pics as I could, but you really need to come see this old mountain goat to appreciate it. It will need a little bodywork and paint to make it cherry. But, if you need it to get around in the mountains, or woods, then just add a wench and you’re ready to go! This is priced right for a great restoration project also; don’t miss out on this beauty. I have clear title.
My price of $5,000 is a no-haggle, bottom dollar price, and I will not accept less. So, no need to ask. 🙂“
