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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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: Price dropped to $2500. I have the seller’s contact info if interested. There is some value here, but lots of project left, too.
(01/03/2017) This is a project. It is a flat fender body on what appears to be a 1976 or later chassis. It has an AMC 304 engine and an AMC 20 rear end.

Something a little different.
“1948 willys stock drivetrain with a 1959 Anglia escort body. Car sat for a very long time. Story is two long for this listing but could tell it if need be. It needs lots of tlc. It runs and drives and has great potential for someone with time money and a place to work on it as it is still a project. put in plugs, pts, cap, rotor, new master cylinder, some tires and wheels. Wheels are original 16″ jeep wheels. Brakes need adj, some wiring. Body is good. Wheel wells flaired but no rust after 25 years. Would consider trade for MG. I need more of a practical driver as I have no extra cash to speed up the project. Please text or call Jeff ”

Looks good. I can’t tell what type of hubs the has.
“If your looking for a classic Jeep and your looking for something fun to do this new year 2017, consider checking out this one. It runs and drives better than any other early CJ I have come across.
I’m a “Flat Fender” enthusiast and have owned many of these so I can tell you with certainty, that this is the one you want for all the important reasons.
Runs like a sewing machine and has good compression.
Very well maintained. If something broke it was fixed properly and in keeping with originality.
Fresh paint and tires and the steering, brakes and running gear are in excellent driving condition.
If you don’t find what your looking for here then let me help you find the right one at the fair price. It’s my passion and hobby!
Don’t be afraid to ask.”
It’s a project.
“1946 CJ2A for sale.
Bought it several years ago and completely dismantled it with the intention of restoring it but never got around to it. Sadly, I have come to the realization that I probably will never complete the project so, I’m selling it. As shown in the pictures, most major components are included. Frame, tub, fenders, grill, windshield frame and hood are in very good condition. Includes all major components with the exception of the following: Driver and passenger seats were ugly retrofits so they were discarded. Steering wheel and gauges were badly cracked/weathered so they were discarded. Wheels were not CJ2A specific so they were discarded.
I do not know the condition of the engine block and I do not believe it is the original block, however, it is a “Go Devil” L Head engine.
Asking $2,500.”

Interesting build.
“Hello this Willys came out of a private collection in Palm Springs. It has been restored with many up grades Vortex V6, speed Trans. Overdrive, power steering and larger brake drums. From the pictures you came see the condition of it. Has all new brake lines, fuel tank, gages rewired, turn signals with E. Flasher, it has plug for towing. The top does fold down and has a cover for top. The seats backs have been moved back about 4″ which makes it easy to get in and out. The paint work is sharp. There has been alot of detail done. The steering components look new. It does have a 2” receiver on front and rear bumpers nicely done. There is two lugs on front bumper for a tow bar tobe mounted but. I have no tow bar for Jeep. This is not a project, it runs and drives. Stops straight and you don’t have to stand on peddle. It does have locking hubs and 2 speed transfer case. Thank you
Additional info: BODY OF RESTORATION. POWERED BY CHEVORLET 4.3L VORTEX V6 DYNO AT 261HP. 4 SPEED SIGINAW TRANSMISSION WITH DANA T18 TRANSFER CASE WITH WARN OVERDRIVE.
I PURCHASED AS IT IS… I DID NOT DO ANY OF THE WORK.
