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 .

James forwarded this gem of an ad. Looks like there are military and civilian jeeps for sale here.
“I recently purchased an estate of Willy’s CJ Jeeps and Parts, and I think I am ready to see if anyone needs parts or project vehicles. Mostly vintage with many early Willy’s CJ2A’s in complete condition and various stages. I have tubs also, some even bead blasted and ready to go. Looks like a fair amount of CJ5 and possibly early CJ7 as well. Look at the photos, that will give you an idea, most of the vehicles with wheels have complete drive trains. There are many loose front ends, rear ends, transmissions, and engine parts, as well as body parts.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3950.

“1948 Willys CJ-2A Jeep for sale. Very nice condition. This Jeep was totally restored several years ago and the original flat-head engine was replaced with the later model and more desirable CJ-3B Hurricane engine that was produced from 1953-1964. At the time of the restoration everything was either rebuilt or replaced. Jeep has been driven very little since. 4×4 and everything works great. Needs nothing. Great for the farm, ranch or deer lease and cheaper than a 4wheeler. Soft top is not in the picture but is included. Lost title, Bill of Sale. Title can be obtained with a little leg work.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.

Advertised as a 1952 CJ-3A, this looks more 2Aish, though it has full floating rear hubs. It doesn’t include wheels or tires.
“Project jeep, no drivetrain, the former owner started cutting the motor mounts out to install a small block, so you have some welding work. No title, bill of sale only. Perfect for a rock crawler, sand racer, or as a parts Jeep.
I bought this strictly for the military wheels and tires, it does NOT come with wheels and tires. If you bring a set of rollers, I’ll change them out in 10 minutes for you. Or, if this Jeep is pre-paid, I can deliver it to you for gas money, and remove the wheels when I get there. “
