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 .

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1100
“Started a CJ-2a project a few years ago and never made much progress. Need to let it go.
The main jeep is:
46 2a rolling chassis. Frame, stock axles with Sears selecto front hubs. Shackles have been replaced, Frame was wire brushed and painted about 5 years ago. Steering Bellcrank bearings replaced (looks like it was upgraded to the bearing version at some time before I got the frame). I’ve also refurbed the steering wheel and epoxy painted it about 3 years ago. Comes with 4 16″ wheels. Since it’s been sitting one rear wheel has locked up. It is a 46 SN 28921, Body tag and frame tag both match SN (body toe number is 19751). The Grille, fenders, and hood were good and go with it. I even have a good set of bullet lights to go with it.
I have lots of other parts to go with it. 3 L134 blocks (one with a chain drive timing gear), rear axle, couple of front axles (one with Warn hubs), 5 transmissions with transfer cases, two windshield frames, two hoods, spare grille, two gas tanks (one unused I believe), two steering shafts, willys truck square heater, one heater that looks like a Harrison, two bullet lights (think one had a cracked lens), 2 15″ rims, new unused fuel pump, lots of spare motor parts, pistons, oil filter, alternator, etc. I do have one body that the previous owner sheathed with metal , and the original body that went with the SN, but is is a nightmare, but the cowl isn’t too bad. The original body is still on the frame with axles under it and tranny/transmission still in it. Has 4″ lift springs under it and I think the rear axle may be an upgraded one. Shape of the diff looks like a D44 but I’m not real sure of that.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7800

I will part it out as it is complete, the front sheet metal is included with the sale as is the windshield. I removed them to facilitate and engine swap with a 4.3L Chevrolet.
