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 .

“Here we have a 1949 CJ2A. NO RUST . Rig spent its first 63 years in Eastern Oregon. Factory 134 Flat head, A lot of fun to drive and gets lots of thumbs up. I have had the Jeep for about 2 years it is pretty much stock. The only upgrades done to it are strickly for safety.
I had R and P install 11″ front Drums, and steering box upgrade to a 1971 CJ version. I also replaced all four springs with super lift 1″lift soft ride with U-bolts and shocks. I had the Radiator Rodded out last summer. And had some seat belts installed.
It was painted about 5-6 years ago and comes with the tow bar. For being 65 years old It looks pretty damn good. I have put about 130 miles on it mainly take to car shows and take kids out for ice cream during the summer. I’m somewhat flexible on price but from what I have seen on ewillys.com you are going to have to look for a long time before you find another one this nice in this price range.”
It’s got a VEC body.
“Another rare barn find. 1946 Jeep CJ2A. Yes, it needs a lot of work. No, it doesn’t have an engine. Tires will hold air long enough to get on a trailer. Vehicle has been sitting many years. Are you looking for something to do with your kids or by yourself this summer? Thanks for reading.”

Engine is frozen. Title is in the works. Price seems a bit steep given those factors.
“I have a Willys Jeep CJ2A. I traded some work for it. Title is in the works. The Jeep is all there, it has a 4 cylinder with a manual transmission. 4 wheel drive. It appears to be all there, and in working condition. I was told it is a 1946 model, but do not know for sure as of yet. See pics, if you have interest please call or text after 5:30 PM Monday thru Friday and on weekends at decent time. I will be happy to answer questions or show it if you wish. I wanted a custom jeep, and I just don’t have the heart to customize this piece of Americana. I would like to find someone that wants to restore it, but once you own it, it doesn’t matter to me what you do with it. ENGINE IS FROZEN.”
