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 1947 Willys Jeep belonged to my father, who recently passed away. He has had it since 1960. He used it for hunting. He stored it in 1971. In 2013 he decided to get it running again. When he bought it, the original flat head “Go Devil” engine was replaced with a 1953 F-head “Hurricane” engine. Has hole cut in hood because Hurricane engine is taller than Go Devil engine.

We took it to a collector car shop in Sacramento, California, to start the project. We had all the brake components changed. Master cylinder, all brake lines, all brake parts, wheel cylinders, drums etc. It has new fuel tank, fuel lines, fuel pump and rebuilt carb. Valve job with all new valves, guides, etc. Converted to 12 volt system. All new bulbs and light fixtures in rear. New 12 volt alternator, and 12 volt gear reduction starter. New water pump, rebuilt radiator. Converted to positive crank case ventilation.
All new steering box, steering column and steering wheel. Recovered seats. Engine starts and runs nice, but smokes a little when driven. Bottom end of engine probably needs attention. We have suspension parts, leaf springs and shocks, still in boxes. This project still needs to be finished. We are looking to get back a fraction of the money invested in this project. Needs lots more work. If you have questions, I will try to get answers. The paperwork and plates on this vehicle are current.”

UPDATE: Price dropped to $12,500. Seller found this in a field and completely rebuilt it. The jeep has a very early title and tags.
“Here is your chance to own the oldest CJ2A on the Road. Its a 1945 Jeep Willys. This was the 3rd Willys off the production line. it was pasture green with daisy yellow wheels. This has been a 3 year build from the time I found it sitting in a field in granite bay California. This Jeep as been completely gone through you can drive this Willy to the hills with no problems. 4 low will put you at 5 11 gear ratio its the best all around willys of this era you will find.
I wonder how well those front mud flaps hold up at higher speeds. Seems they would be flapping like mad.
“This Willy’s Jeep has been fully restored, converted to 12V system and well maintained. The engine and drive train are (to my knowledge) original and runs well. All of the sheet metal is new and has been “rhino coated” underneath and on the floor surfaces on top. All gages work, new upholstery with rear side pads as additional seating, cargo rack, spare gas can, tire, “handyman jack”, shovel, and tow bar.”

“Due to another project I have decided to sale my 1948 Willy’s Project. Here is what I was told when I bought it. Engine totally restored. (It does appear this was dne) Frame cleaned painted new lines brakes etc. ( have not verified) I was told the transmission was rebuilt but there still appears to be allot of build up of gunk but everything seams to work. It is at a great place to start putting back together. You could either totally restore or build back and drive the crap out of it. Supposedly 100% of all the parts are there. Somebody has started cutting parts from the body and patch back but has a long way to go.”
