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 .

“Beautiful Willys jeep with a rebuilt 283 engine with less then 50 miles on it. The jeep also has new tires with less then 50 miles, in addition it has anew soft top and doors still in the box. The jeep is in pristine condition, and very clean, it shows no signs of rust. I wish I could keep the jeep, but with a new baby in the family I need a family vehicle. I am set on the price and would rather keep it then budge off the asking price.”

“I have a 1949 Willys on a CJ5 frame. The engine is a rebuilt Chev 350 (balanced) with an RV cam. New Edlebrock carb. Jacobs ingnition system. 4 row aluminum radiator. Headers with turbo mufflers. T18 4-speed with Dana20 transfer case. Dana 30 front axle, AMC20 Rear Axle both have new 4:10 gears and equipped with ARB (Air) lockers. Front axle has disc brakes, rear axle drum brakes and also has full floating lock out hubs(real nice for towing). Power steering & power brakes. Hydraulic clutch. Has competition seats with harness. Roll bar. Recent soft top in excellent condition. CB radio, Kenwood cassette stereo. 18 gallon gas tank in back and a 10 gallon tank under the drivers seat. Tire & gas can rack on the back. Highlift jack mounted on the front. Total mileage on this rig since rebuild is under 500 miles. The CJ5 frame provides excellent stabilty while still being small enough overall to wind your way through the narrowest of trails. This rig successfully traveled several black diamond trails around the Gorman Area and easily climbed the sand dunes in Pismo Beach both in Califonia. Highway legal. I just don’t seem to use it enough and I hate to see it sit. Possible trade all or part depending on what you have. I’m interested in boats, 4 stroke outboards, marine/fishing stuff, maybe something along the lines of an older Honda accord type of car.”
UPDATE: Still Available
(11/04/2011) It’s called a Jonco. I has a bobcat fiberglass hood. The desert scene on the back looks familiar, but I can’t quite place where I’ve seen it.
“Its named the Jonco, because its a 47 CJ3A on a 73 Bronco frame running
gear/frame, but has extended leaf springs both front and rear, 11″ brakes, 3.92 gear ratio, ford 9″ 4spider posi, lakewood scatter shield
over the clutch on the 3spd manual 289 ford big cam 4bbl Edelbrock torker
Full rollbar, 8k Warn winch, towbar, brake line lock.
It now has brand new, wheel cylinders, lines, brakes, drums,master cylinder.
We drained the fuel tank and installed new fuel line.
It was stored for years in a garage, the tires were rotted, we put on street tires to sell it. It used to have 12×15 large mud tires on the 10″ rims.
We have the clear title, this jeep used to race, its very strong, so its not for sale to any young drivers.”

John pointed this out. It includes a video.
“A rare, working, 1952 Willys Jeep CJ2A with an Auburn Jeep-A-Trench trencher. It will dig a trench 6″ wide and 46″ maximum depth. The trencher was made in Auburn, Nebraska by a company that is still in existence today. I have used this trencher 3-4 times a year for the past 6 years. It has been kept in a barn, each time I just put battery in it and it is ready to go. I have used it for installing water lines, electrical lines, drainage tile and rain water downspouts. It was previously owned by a local plumber. It is simple to use and once digging is started you just stand back and watch it work. It runs great and has not overheated in our hot and humid Kansas summers. Brakes are soft and steering is stiff but you’re really not going to drive it any distance anyway. It is self propelled via creeper gears and the digging outrigger can be raised and lowered via an electric motor. All of the standard Jeep CJ2A features are still retained. It was converted to 12 volt then the trencher unit was added at the factory along with a Governor to regulate engine speed, a PTO unit, an additional drive shaft, heavy springs and frame stiffeners. Exact mileage unknown, but it can’t be to high because the trencher has been on it since day one. Comes with spare parts including extra trencher teeth and chain links and owner guide. Have a clear title. Sold AS IS, no warranty. Also for sale locally. I will not deliver. If you arrange shipping I will assist with loading. Deposit payment of $500 via PayPal within 24 hours of auction ending. Balance of payment will be cashiers check or cash. Cashiers check must clear to be paid in full prior to shipping or removal from sellers location.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $875.
The body has been patched quite a bit.
“Not sure of the year of this beauty. Believe its a CJ3A. Lots of patches and rust and I think the top is homemade and nicely done. I do have the doors. It is still a 6 volt system and believe it or not it runs, drives and stops like it should. Shifts into all gears with no noise or popping out of gear. Could use a tune up and a lot of love. I have a temporary gas can on it to move it around. There is a good gas tank on the passenger seat that will go with it. Would make a good farm jeep or put a new body on it. Lots of good parts”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8500.
