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 .

“1948 Willy’s Jeep, frame off restoration. Rebuilt motor. Canvas top included.”
As militarized CJ-2As god, this is closer to an MB/GPW than most.

“I have been over this Jeep and fixed or replaced everything that was wrong with it. I rebuilt the motor starting with a brand new block and everything bolted to it is either new or restored. It was going to live at our family cabin and be used for fishing and canoeing but then Jeep came out with the Gladiator and I just don’t need two Jeeps.”
Jim spotted this one. It looks like a nice setup.

This could possibly be a late 1948 or 1949 CJ-2A. Either that or it is a 3A with a replacement 2A body.

(06/12/2020) Seller wants to trade for a Model A.
“Im exploring trading my restored, numbers matching, color correct running driving, 4wd, CJ2A for a restored, running driving Model A. I had a lot of fun with this Jeep but the real fun is driving different old cars. So if you have a nice Model A you’d like to trade for a cool old Jeep. Lets talk.”
This CJ-2A looks in excellent shape. It’s got a few updates/mods.

(05/20/2020) Two-owner jeep.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/301123330882218/
“My father purchased this 1946 jeep in 2019 from the original owner here in Dallas. The Willys jeep is a 1946 CJ-2A. It had been in their family since that time. The vehicle was painted white some years ago and was converted to a 12-volt system. The jeep is mostly original with many additional options. A heater, Koenig winch, wipers, blinkers were added to name a few. The original owners manual and framing for the top are also included with a few other random parts. While the jeep would benefit carburetor cleaning the Jeep runs and drives well now. $10,000 obo. Willing to trade. No scams”
Nice jeep that’s likely had some body work.

“In excellent condition with 2232 miles.”
This was for sale back in 2018, but, based on the rear license plate, appears to have sold. Curiously, these new pics show a Florida plate on the back and a Vermont plate on the front.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $12,555.
(04/10/2020) The seller suggests that this is a 1945, but the dash plate looks more like a post column shift (33xxx-45xxx) plate … (has the script “JEEP” and does has the “ONE QUARTER TON FOUR WHEEL DRIVE” slogan rather than the preceding “ONE QUARTER TON FOUR WHEEL DRIVE TRUCK”).

(04/01/2020) Mechanically, this looks like it’s been thoughtfully restored. I’m just not sure how the restorer figured out what the “correct WWII Olive Drab” would be?
https://kansascity.craigslist.org/cto/d/chilhowee-restored-1948-willys-jeep-cj/7115023703.html
“Fully restored frame-off restoration. No part of this vehicle has been left untouched.
